Nice enough for a family with older kids
The Maldives are gorgeous and the beach and this island were nature wise gorgeous. However this was my first stay at Club Med and while the staff seem lovely and work super hard it was definitely not a 5 star experience. Rooms were super tiny, and really lacklustre, even the beach front villas we were in. It was really cramped but clean - great cleaners. The food was good- but with a 2 year old on nap times it was super restrictive we basically missed 5 meals out of my 5 day stay and lived on really rushed 2 meals a day and the snacks we brought with is because you can’t purchase any meals outside the inclusive buffets. We managed to get the head chef to make is a fish and rice to take back to my room with me but it was conveyed as so irregular and a hassle i never asked for it again- i found myself what the point of this type of holiday even is of you can’t get a simple burger and fries when you’re hungry by the pool. I had to carry my 2 year old as the walk crom my villa to food was super long and exhausting I can’t comprehend why youd out ppl with young kids so far away from the facilities. Finally we weren’t allowed to do any activities as at almost 3 my daughter was too young, no kayak, no SUP nothing. it is 8+ so hardly worth bringing kids at that age. For an older family who like to eat buffets 3 times a day at designated times I’m sure it’s fine. But I was at Malahini a few years ago much cheaper and everything rooms, walk, facilities were all much nicer. Was disappointing this time around but we dod love the beach!!!

Rain or Shine, I was Happy!
My first time at Club Med, and I’ve always wanted to experience it but never had the chance! Despite the rain during most of my stay, I had a fantastic time, thanks to the amazing people there. Huge thanks to Dudu and Sha, our wonderful G.Os, for keeping the vibes high. And a special shoutout to Mr. Sanaa at the bar—such a friendly guy, and he made the best mojito I’ve ever had. Top-notch! Number #1!

Amazing holiday with little disappointment
I was a former GO of Club Med Kani and returning was like a home away from home, meeting up with good friends and spending quality time in the resort. My wife and I have been previously to Club Med Finolhu where we use to take the boat to watch the shows at Kani, this is also what inspired us to stay in Kani this time. The shows are choreographed by the very talented and kind hearted Anna. The holiday was made magical by the hospitality shown from Vishark who works in the sports team, his kind hearted personality shines through in everything he does. Whilst we were there we got introduced to Shar who is the new marine biologist on the island. Shar was very informative about the coral and sealife and we recommend you partake in the coral planting activity with her. Shar has a very bright future ahead. We stayed in Manta which are the water villas and these have there own concierge, we were lucky to meet Dominic who has the brightest smile and biggest heart of anybody we have met. His personality is beautiful just like his smile. The aurora around him is just pure delight. We went on a snorkeling trip and were lucky to have Paul as the lifeguard,once again very kind hearted and hardworking. Every evening we partied to the amazing music delivered by Courtney, who once again went above and beyond to make our trip special, she played happy birthday via the speakers at exactly 12am for us to celebrate, her and Anna even joined us for dinner one evening which was the icing on the cake for our holiday. When you go to Kani, ensure you dance at the bar with Sana who serves all the drinks. This man has an amazing smile, delivers delicious drinks and dances away the evening. He just lights up the room. We would like to give a big shout out to Jambe - restaurant assistant manager for his hospitality and making sure everything was perfect for us at all times. Jambe is always generally welcoming, thank you for your kindness. The whole holiday was magical, the only possible downside was the response or should we say lack of response from the room devision manager Julie who on three separate occasions completely ignored us and refused to say hello or good morning. On the jetty one day she even turned away from us and wished the staff good morning but did not acknowledge us,very strange after receiving such a positive vibe from the rest of the island. We honestly could not thank the staff enough from the Chef the village (CDV) who was very welcoming, to the manager of Manta and the amazing house keeping team ( Ali / Thiham / Shiyaz ) etc. Even the security guards are welcoming and polite. Thank you Kani for an amazing holiday and we hope to see you soon. Vishark you honestly gave us an expereince we will never forget, thank you. One again I like to request RDM Julie not to separate guests whilst working on hotel industry specially in Kani, one night as it was raining a lot we waited at reception to go to restaurant and she even ignored us and did not eve bothered to offer us if we need an umbrella whilst carrying a box of thsoe UMBRELLAS to keep it at restaurant with some other staffs from reception , this was so disturbing us to see as a fully paid guest at the resort , not thinking to return if she is working in Kani. I still recommend other to visit and enjoy the happy life of Kani with the amazing GO & GE team.

Must go - truly divine!!
A big thank you to Boris (Deputy COV), Anastasia (Manta reception) and Sham (head of snorkelling). They truly made our trip and were very responsive to our needs and went out of their way to make our trip memorable. Highly recommend upgrading to the overwater bungalows as it gives you access to the Exclusive Collection Space and makes the most of the location. The kids loved it as did my husband and I. It was a very special trip to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday and the Maldives with the marine life and numerous activities was perfect for our family. My daughter enjoyed trapeze. We loved paddle as a family activity and it was good to get out on the catamarans and stand up paddle boards as well. We enjoyed cocktail hour at the Manta Bar each evening. The service was fabulous. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back to another Club Med as it works so well for our family - something for everyone, or nothing, depending on how you feel! A trip of a lifetime with many pinch me moments seeing fish, turtles, reef sharks, dolphins and pilot whales!
