Great video, very informative and helpful. We were hoping to go in 2020 also but we are now going March 2023, we can't wait. Thanks for sharing your experience with us 😎👌
Excellent video! Gave us just the information we were looking for. Going on honeymoon in a couple of weeks. Wish for not too much rain for us. Thanks for the info Peter!
Stayed in kuramathi 2020 for three weeks loved it so much. Brings back so many memories fantastic staff, beach house was fantastic. Scuba diving. Better than the Caribbean ,worth every penny,
We enjoyed this video very much, we have been five times over the years and going back again in nine weeks. Kuramathi is the most amazing place. This is a great video for anyone who hasn’t been before as there is so much information. We’ve always flown out of Glasgow on Emirates and don’t mind the change in Dubai. We tried the seaplane once but much prefer going by boat…it’s great that people have a choice. Can’t wait to get back and see the changes since we were last there in 2015.
@@peterroll9262 Hi Peter, great video! Very informative! Just want to ask, how much did you pay for the return sea plane transfer? And how much would it cost for a return speedboat transfer? Thanks!
@@fizizulkifli423 Hi, plane transfer was approximately 250 US Dollars each one way or about 450 US dollars for both but it was part of a package. Not sure about the speedboat as we never considered that so didn’t ask how much. Something to investigate with your travel agent.
Great video Peter. Thanks for making it. If you were going back there again, where on the island do you think you would stay - and what room type would you choose?
Hi, it really depends on your budget. If you can afford it go for an over water villa like a Thundi. Other over water villas have a pool but not so big as Thundi. Any villa you stay in you can reach the sea in seconds.
Hi Peter, thanks for all the explanations about the hotel, very informative video. All i got is one question, the other restaurants like the reef, did you pay extra? Or is it just like you said on the video, some dishes have a green tick ?
Hello, all the restaurants including the Reef are in the all inclusive package, and yes it has the same system with the green tick system. The only place we found which was not included in the all inclusive package was The Champagne Bar.
Hi, thanks for the comments. It was mostly filmed on my GoPro Hero 10, some on my iPhone and a little on my new Sony a7iv that I had just got about 2 weeks before going to Kuramathi so I was not familiar with it. You will have a great time.
It was about 250 US Dollars each one way, can’t remember exactly as it was part of a package. I think it’s a bit cheaper if you book a return about 450 US Dollars.

Love this place ❤
Really helpful video , thanks , we’re going in July from Dublin 😉
You will have a great time.
Very helpful! How do you go about booking two different villas during the same trip?
We booked through Kuoni and the travel agent sorted all that out for us

@@peterroll9262 Thanks Peter. Did you get much use out of the pool in your villa or did you just use the sea?
@@martinoboyle84 it was about half and half. It is just that bit of luxury but certainly not essential to have a pool.

How much sea plane transfer cost??

Every water villa has pools?
Most but not all. There are some with no pool but a hot tub instead.
