An Unforgettable Solo Escape at Ayada Maldives
The resort is absolutely beautiful, with stunning surroundings, pristine beaches, crystal-clear turquoise water, and a peaceful atmosphere that makes it easy to relax and disconnect from everyday life. The villa was spacious, comfortable, beautifully maintained, and offered the perfect setting to enjoy the natural beauty of the Maldives.
What stood out most to me was the exceptional hospitality. The staff were friendly, attentive, and professional throughout my stay, while also giving me the privacy and personal space that I appreciated as a solo traveller. Every interaction felt sincere and thoughtful.
The food and dining experiences were excellent, with a great variety of choices and high-quality dishes.

Incredible surf experience, Kelly & Shappu are legends
The surfing was one of the absolute highlights of our stay at Ayada. Kelly and Shappu were fantastic from start to finish. They know the local breaks extremely well, always put us onto great waves and made every session relaxed and enjoyable.
They also captured some awesome footage of us surfing and went above and beyond by putting together edited videos with music for us. Such a great memory to take home.
What really stood out was how much effort they made outside of the surfing as well. We were at Ayada celebrating my wife Claire’s 50th birthday, and they made it incredibly special with local drums, singing and dancing. It was completely unexpected and something we will remember.
Kelly and Shappu are genuinely great guys who made a huge contribution to our trip. We had some epic surf sessions, plenty of laughs and an amazing experience.
Thanks again guys, absolute legends. We’ll definitely be back.
Ayada doesn’t disappoint!
We had an exceptional time at Ayada Maldives. Our group of three came primarily for the surfing, and the experience exceeded our expectations. The surf crew, Kelly and Shappu, took great care of us and made our trip incredibly memorable. Kelly was an excellent guide and host, and Shappu did an amazing job capturing our surf sessions on video. They truly made our surf experience something special.
Our time at the resort was equally memorable. Jade and Affan provided exceptional service throughout our stay, and our housekeeper did an outstanding job taking care of us and our villa. The level of service and hospitality from the entire team was top-notch.
We had an absolute blast and are genuinely sad to leave. Thank you to everyone at Ayada for making this such a memorable trip. We hope to return in the near future!
Warm Regards,
Bob
Livin' up to the surf-vaca bucket list trip
Ayada resort was simply amazing and lived up to the surf-vaca bucket list trip I thought it would be. The food, the people (especially Kelly, Shappu, Jade, Nasrin and Affan) and the accommodations were phenomenal. We mainly came here to surf and catch epic, less crowded waves and leave with priceless memories. Thanks to Kelly and Shappu, the Maldives surf experience delivered all that! We really appreciated their professionalism, ocean knowledge and guidance that took us to the best waves available each day...and got us back to the boat and resort safely. This trip will be forever burned it to my brain.
One week at Ayada
We had an amazing time at Ayada Maldives! The surf sessions with Kelly and Shappu were a highlight, and we also had great experiences with Roshan, Boxo, and the rest of the wonderful staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming. We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back!
