After comprehensive renovation, Lily Beach Resort Maldives reopened with a brand-new concept in March 2009, which was the first of its kind among the Maldives islands. Here, you need no or only very little extra expense, from unlimited cocktails to free snorkeling, including free cigars! Rooms range from 68-square-meter beach villas to 182-square-meter sunset-view water suites, all quite luxurious and chic. Lily Beach's lagoon is quite good (sea turtles can often be seen), and snorkeling is easy. Diving enthusiasts usually come here for dive sites in South Ari Atoll such as the famous Kudarah Thila, especially during whale season. Lily Beach is not only fashionable but also all-inclusive; it is one of the few cost-effective luxury resorts.
1. 20 minutes by seaplane—just the right distance: you can experience the seaplane and get to the island quickly. 2. Full-island network coverage! You can use WeChat and Weibo anywhere. 3. All-inclusive; island activities are rich and free, and the restaurants also have rich choices. 4. The water villas have a massage pool and Jacuzzi. 5. Snorkeling equipment is free to rent; snorkeling grade A.
First, Lily Beach was once the highest-tier all-inclusive hotel in the Maldives, very worry-free and cost-effective. Second, it not only includes three meals a day, afternoon tea, the in-room minibar, drinks at the bar, various spirits, beer, cocktails, wine, etc., but even gives free paid activities—this is absolutely reliable. Third, the hotel's snorkeling environment is also relatively good, and snorkeling equipment can be rented for free. Fourth, the facilities are good; the "Deluxe Water Villas" have glass floors and a Jacuzzi, as well as a massage pool.
First, the "Beach Villas" and "Lagoon Villas" are in a two-units-per-building structure, with poor privacy. Second, the "Lagoon Villas" are numbered 201-216, close to the drop-off, at the edge of the lagoon; to prevent seawater from eroding the beach, the villas are separated by breakwaters. Although the water inside is suitable for swimming, it affects the visual experience. If the budget is sufficient, you can choose a higher-level room type.
