A great hotel for a very reasonable price for the Maldives. It has its own reef and gardens (artificial reefs), lots of fish, turtles, sharks, rays and dolphins. At the same time, beaches with excellent powdery white sand. (It does not bask in the sun at all and is soft). The entrance is shallow in most places without stones or carals. The territory is green and well maintained. Hiking trails are shaded, there are birds and Flying foxes.
We arrived a little ahead of time and had to wait at the airport, but we were immediately fished out, our luggage was signed and they put us on the boat according to schedule. It's not a long drive (45 minutes) with Wi-Fi. We had a large pitchfork on the water (2 nights) and a large pitchfork on the beach (5 nights). The numbers correspond to what is stated in the description. Of the disadvantages (if you find fault), towels have lost their snow-white, there are stale spots on the beach, jars of detergents are "tired". Otherwise, everything is just fine. Food according to the concept of 3 pink nutrition. The choice is moderate, but you can always find something to eat. Tuna sashimi is divine. Ice cream at lunch and dinner, as well as drinks in the morning (juice, coffee), and water are always included. We liked the gym with newer equipment on dream Island, and the pool on dream Island more. Among the additional buns: an excursion in search of dolphins as a gift, when changing rooms we were given a bottle of champagne and a fruit plate, champagne and a cake for our birthday. We really liked everything. In the evenings, there is a slight smell of hydrogen sulfide in the inner bay (algae is released, the wind does not have time to blow away).

I have been carefully choosing a hotel for our holidays and celebrating my birthday in the Maldives for a long time and I am very glad that I chose San Siyam Oluveli!
I must say right away that our 7 days in this hotel were held under the motto "Everything was great, it was a wow effect"!👍
You can feel the warmth and hospitality from the airport when you are greeted by a representative of the hotel. The transfer was on a comfortable boat, we got there in 40 minutes!
They were greeted with drums and a friendly smile.
Reception!
I would like to express my gratitude to ADELE's employee, he speaks good Russian, met us very hospitably, told us everything in detail, showed us everything, and also always provided support during the holidays when questions arise!
I rate his work highly: 100 points out of 100! The hotel management is great for being so careful about choosing staff!
The staff here is very, very friendly! I really liked it. You will be called "sir" and "madam", they greet you all the time, and if you are with children, they are also greeted sweetly!
And the best part is that the staff doesn't insist or even HINT at a tip! We tried to leave tips in all the locations of the hotel, because the staff is really on top! In my travel agency experience, this is one of the most important components of a quality vacation! The hotel management really keeps a mark on this.
For 6 nights I was lucky enough to stay in 3 categories of rooms at once, I did it specifically in order to better familiarize myself with the resort and now I know all the nuances!
The hotel consists of 3 islands! And it really bribed me when choosing among such a number of Maldives resorts! Because you can diversify your vacation with different beaches, locations, and photos.
So, we stayed for 2 nights in the DELUXE WATER VILLA category.
It is important to understand that if you live on the island of Olhuveli, then you can eat on this island using the FB or ALL INCLUSIVE system.
Regarding the room, I recommend it, the villas are a little tired, you have to understand that, but having such a gorgeous bathtub with an incredibly beautiful view will leave an indelible impression!
Next, we moved to the GRAND WATER VILLA WITH POOL on Dream Island.
I highly recommend the room category, you can safely book. By the way, it was deeper in the ocean here than in the previous category.
And we spent 3 more nights in the BECH VILLA WITH POOL category.
I also heartily recommend this type of room! You can safely take it!
MEALS: we took All Inclusive. It was the most correct decision.
By the way, the water in the hotel is very tasty!
Decent wine (red, pink, white), draft beer, cocktails, etc.
Take everything included and don't even think about it! Especially if you are flying with children and drinking alcohol.
I liked the food in the restaurants, it was enough! There is a children's corner. Fish and meat were served at the buffet.
Everything was delicious!
Also, the concept of everything included the use of water sports - non-motorized, 1 excursion to choose from two - a local island or snorkeling safari. We chose snorkeling. Very beautiful!
And the mini bar was turned on.
We also went on a guided tour: Sunset with dolphins. It was incredible and romantic!!!!
Mosquitoes: not detected. I saw 2 characters flying around me in total, and it was after the rain.
Algae: there wasn't much, but once it swam a little more than usual and then in one place, it absolutely didn't hurt, while the staff quickly cleaned everything up.
More about the islands: the islands are very green, buses run between them, there are special stops.
We almost always went barefoot! - It's a complete thrill!
Entertainment: we played billiards, went to an evening animation, went snorkeling, and in the evening went to watch Manta rays and other inhabitants of the underwater world near the dive center.
It won't be boring here!!!
What I recommend to do when you go on vacation to wonderful SUN SIYAM OLHUVELI:
1. Be sure to order a floating breakfast in your room if you have your own pool! The price is very reasonable - only $ 92 for breakfast for two with a bottle of alcohol!
2. Be sure to visit the SPA! I visited the OCEAN SPA on Dream Island. My advice: take 90 minutes at once! During this time, you will really relax and see different fish and other inhabitants of the ocean. She was a very professional masseuse.
3. In the dive center you can go diving even without a special certificate, and I also really liked the instructor Daria, she told me in detail how best to snorkel near the hotel. Pay more attention to the services of the dive center. A good one!
4. Take an ALL-INCLUSIVE meal plan! Definitely, you will only win!!!
5. Be sure to visit at least 1 a la carte restaurant! The food is delicious!
6. Book your hotel in advance! Popular because price is quality!
7. Rent a bike, go for a ride on all 3 islands, you can go to Romance Island, but without children.
8. Take pictures! There are many cool locations in the hotel!
9. Attend the evening shows, the music is great!
Bottom line: I definitely recommend the Sun SIYAM Olhuveli 4*+ hotel for everyone!
And I wish that your vacation in San Siam was as great as mine!!!
If you have any questions about the hotel, write to me at tg @katya_818 and I will share videos and photos from the hotel, useful information if necessary.
I also recommend considering other hotels in the San Siyam chain, personally I really want to visit SIYAM World!
I recommend it!

I'm at the hotel right now.
Great hotel, I like everything.
Thank you, there is something to do. Excellent reef: manta rays, rays, sharks, turtles come. Lots of fish of all kinds.
The food is excellent, there are many restaurants.
The villas themselves are in perfect condition. The bungalow was recently renovated, the Sunset bungalow is under renovation, and I don't think it will be delivered until September. The lagoon is great. In general, I recommend it.
