What makes Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma truly special is its people.
What makes Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma truly special is its people making genuine emotional connections with guests.
A special thank you to Russell, whose warmth, constant smile and genuine care made every interaction memorable. She anticipated our needs, handled every arrangement seamlessly, and made the entire experience feel effortless so we could simply enjoy creating memories as a family.
Anishka, always greeted us warmly and took the time to chat with our son about his adventures. The buggy drivers made every ride enjoyable by sharing stories about the Maldives, while the Housekeeping and water villa security teams were always friendly and welcoming. We especially loved how the security staff lit up the water at night to show us the fish, shared interesting marine facts, and comforted our son when he was sad to leave by telling him he'd be back one day.
Thanks to the PADI team especially Mr. Moos and André for their patience, encouragement and care, which gave our son the confidence to enjoy his very first dive.
The resort also offers plenty of activities and entertainment, and we loved the piña coladas!
Overall, we left with memories our family will treasure forever. We'll definitely be back—not just for the beautiful island, but for the incredible people who made us feel so at home.

Couples massage in Kandooma
Amazing experience totally recommend! I combined the COMO SHAMBHALA signature massage with a facial massage at the Holiday Inn Resort in Maldives and my partner the Complete Man. It was one of the best highlights of our travel.

Beautiful experience
Island and people were amazing, beautiful and friendly environment
Great family experience
What an amazing island the kids loved it and so did we, amazing staff special thanks to Roshan a great guy. The rooms are always up to the level sherif made our daughter be amazed with his skills in decorating the bed. The staff at restaurant they were friendly and always supportive.
Just Paradise!!!
We have just returned from an amazing two weeks at the Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma. From the smooth booking process with Prabhath in Reservations to the departure from the Island, everything was perfect.
The lovely welcome we received on arrival from Maleeh set the bar for the rest of the trip. We were given a Welcome drink and cold towel on arrival and logged onto the WIFI. We were then connected onto the Handgo App so we were in constant contact with Reception and the Team for whatever we should need.
We stayed in two connecting villas as we were there as a family of four with our daughters aged 13 and 18. The villas and the whole of the island is absolutely spotless. The staff work so hard to ensure everywhere is perfect. We were worried about mosquitos as one of our daughters is allergic but we did not see any at all. They spray the island everyday to keep the bugs at bay and this worked perfectly.
All of the staff are top class from the Restaurant service from Duo, Yousef and the Sweet, kind Angelina to all of the Bar staff. Our favourite Roshan who entertained us every day and soon become a good friend too. We miss you all.
The Beach is beautiful with warm sea that I could just float in all day!
We also enjoyed meeting up with Dheen, Marketing Manager who is so friendly and a total professional with the Islands social media and posts. We will miss him too.
Maleeh gave us an island tour on our last day showing my daughters all of the amazing flowers and trees the island has to offer. Maleeh we thank you so much, you made our trip so special.
This was one trip to remember and we were very sad to leave such lovely friends.
We will be back :)
