Tadrai Island Resort

Worth knowing

There were a few minor issues in our room that were either rectified or didn't affect our stay. I think the rooms could do with a bit of maintenance as some things didn't work properly but with a bit of TLC would make the rooms even more inviting.

Worth knowing

Die Cocktails werden nur von 17.00-19.00Uhr serviert, somit ist es nicht möglich als Nachtisch oder Schlummertrunk noch einen zu erhalten. Bier und Wein ist jedoch immer verfügbar. US Survival Team war an den Dreharbeiten einer neuen Staffel, somit waren viele Inseln und Gebiete für Touristen gesperrt.

Nothing could have been better other than staying longer

Worth knowing

Everything was bad except the staff

Worth knowing

There were only two minor things we noticed. The room could benefit from some updating, and the restaurant service, while kind, could be a bit more proactive and quicker, so guests don’t need to ask repeatedly.

Worth knowing

There were some key aspects that were simply unacceptable. Firstly we picked this resort for its exclusivity and the villas were supposed to be private. Unfortunately this was not the case. You could not sit in your villa , pool or balcony and have a single moment of privacy as the staff were constantly up and down in front of the villa. They were picking up things from the boat coming in or just simply wandering past to do things around the property or to go and play volleyball. This is a management issue as it has obviously become the norm that staff simply walk past the villas all the time. The boat that is used to ferry people around and bring people to the island also comes in to the property in front of the 4 beach villas. This means that guests are coming and going in front of the villas. There needs to be a different location found for the boat to come in, there is plenty of space in front of the helicopter pad and a part to access this. One day for nearly two hours the staff were ferrying the hotel supplies past the villas. The managers need to address the issue of staff walking past and the staff need to be taught to walk on the walkway behind the villas to ensure guest have privacy. This is such a basic management issue but for us it totally ruined our time at the resort. All we wanted was to be able to have our privacy when we are in our villa. This resort is charging the same prices as the Maldives and other resorts around the globe, and this would simply never happen under good hotel management. The second major issue was the food and beverage. This is an all inclusive property which advertises as having great food. Quite frankly the food was terrible for most of our stay. It was both inedible and there was no fresh salad (the only thing close to a salad was cabbage and carrots sliced up with no dressing) served in the full 8 days we were there. I also fell sick one day due to food poisoning.
