Good value for money.. Food options very limited
The staff was very good but they were clearly overworked . Short staffed property. Excellent house reef and water sports centre. The whale shark excursion was not worth it at all as it is a rare sight. The manta rays excursion was also not very fruitful as the sea was very choppy. We didn’t see much in the night snorkeling either. Best is to stick by the house reef where u can see tons of sea creatures.Read moreDate of stay : October 2024 -

Great family trip to Maldives
This resort shows that Maldives doesn’t have to be expensive to have a luxurious experience. Also its proximity to the whale sharks and manta rays makes it value for money.Read moreDate of stay : October 2024 -

Amazing resort
We had an amazing experience during our 3 nights stay at Centara. We especially liked the house reef for snorkeling, the diving center and its team (our son did a diving discovery course and he loved it), the whale shark excursion and sunset yoga on the beach. We stayed at the over water villa for families which was very spacious and well equipped. Anytime we needed something, the staff was there to help. I can highly recommend Centara!Read moreDate of stay : October 2024 -

A stay to Remember
It was one of the best vacation we had in the Maldive. From top management to all the line staff they always ensure provision of extremely personalized service with actual genuine caring nature. Everything was so perfect from food in Azure Mare ( litterally one of the best Italian we ever had and chef jatin was simply awesome) to Sua ban the thai restaurant with authentic thai touch. We have received some amazing service from all the staff but unfortunately not all the names we remember but following are few Irfan in club Sunny in Azure Mare Jatin ( chef of azzure mare) Yuva front office Huttu recreation Nalin hotel manager Munna houskeeping Neba recreation Miao thai restauarant In addition to that its one of the best lagoon to witness and experience sea creatures around. Sharks, Sting ray, Manta, turtles you name it. Will definitely visit again as one vacation is not enough for Centara Grand Maldives.Read moreDate of stay : October 2024 -

My 12th visit - lots of changes
Until April24 I always gave the highest ratings for this resort, but I can‘t anymore. Senthil (restaurant manager & guest relation) left. He was for us the „Soul of Centara. Anyhow, Chef Senthil, May, Irfan & Huthu did a great job, the SPA is also great. The Best Dives Team is complete new = lots of problems, but Alex from Colombia was friendly and we had great dives. Our annual private boat trip was a Desaster -however, problems happen - more important is, how to handle. I guess it is very hard to keep same quality with reduced man-power..Read moreDate of stay : October 2024 -

เที่ยว Centara grand Maldives อีกครั้ง
Returned again from August 5-8 for the second time due to getting a special price, including the seaplane, for around 63,000 THB. Still as impressed as ever, the Sunset Water Villa, room 88, has a beautiful coral reef, and we often encountered baby sharks every time we went into the water from the Villa. The accommodation is spacious, and the kids could stay in the overwater Villa. The manta ray activity was fun and worthwhile, but unfortunately, we didn’t spot any whale sharks on the whale shark trip. The food is quite expensive but reasonable. If there’s another promotional price, we will definitely come back again.Read moreDate of stay : August 2024 -
