About the island
Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru in the Maldives is what we have always called "Big Four Seasons." It has the Maldives' only wedding chapel independent on the sea, as well as a super beautiful sandbank, and the service is also superb, making it famously one of the hardest-working top resorts in the Maldives. It opened in November 2006 and belongs to the Four Seasons Hotels group. Located in Baa Atoll, Maldives, it is a 30-minute seaplane ride from Male. The hotel was renovated in 2019, adding private pools to all villas, and the rooms and island facilities were upgraded overall to a higher level.
Why stay here
A top island is by no means forged by luxurious rooms alone. Four Seasons' rooms are definitely not the most luxurious, but it is indeed recognized as one of the top resorts. Big Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru has always been called low-key luxury; its taste is reflected in every detail and covers everything the Maldives has to offer. Not much recommendation reason is needed, just because it is Four Seasons.
Highlights
First, as a Four Seasons group hotel, it must be the first choice for family trips with children, with very child-friendly policies: unlimited meals three times a day, and you can go to the restaurant whenever hungry. In addition, the kids' club also has a water slide. If your budget is sufficient and you are traveling with children, Big Four Seasons is definitely the first choice. Second, the beach is very good, and there is a beautiful sandbank. Third, Four Seasons' service lives up to its reputation, with meticulous attention to detail; in short, it is all superb, and you can only experience it when you arrive. Fourth, besides meticulous service, Four Seasons' dining quality is also quite good. During the promotion, if your rate includes meals, whether at the buffet restaurant or a la carte restaurant, you can eat there, and all dishes on the menu can be ordered, with no excluded dishes, including lobster and Australian steak.
Before you go
First, after the hotel renovation, a row of breakwaters was added on the north side of the island. If you mind this, please choose carefully, or choose room types facing south. Second, the beach in front of the base beach villas is not spacious enough; compared with the beach villas on the other side, the conditions are slightly inferior. Third, it is not very suitable for friends who like snorkeling; to see beautiful coral while snorkeling, you can only join sea excursions.
