Five stars is not enough, This was a little bit of paradise, I wish I could have had more Time Here! The staff are super friendly - from The airport greet staff, the boat team, waiting staff and the team that showed us around when we arrived - many thanks Mayiz.
The resort is just a quick 10 minute speedboat ride from The airport and everything is divine - we stopped in a beachfront villa which is superbly equipped with its own private little pool, well worth the extra. The water is lovely, sand is beautiful and we captured some Great pictures and many happy memories. The catering choices were vast - but you can easily blow your budget on extras here! A wonderful Time here, somewhere I hope I can come Back to soon.

Great location as it’s close to the airport so only a 10 min ride by boat to the island. But it still feels like you are far away on a tropical island, perfect for families who don’t want to travel far when arriving in the Maldives. Rooms are super clean, cleaning staff came by twice a day. Facilities are very well maintained and there is everything you need. Staff is super friendly, helpful and welcoming. We were greeted with coconut ice cream while staff took care of the check in. Food is super high quality and delicious. Highly recommend Niva Kurumba for your stay in the Maldives.

Comfortable relaxing stay with nice atmosphere which fitted what we needed on what was a last-minute stay. Would say that the room and beach area could be a little cleaner - old bottle tops were on the ground around the plants in our outside bathroom, and old cups and cigarette trays were still under the bushes around our nearest sunbathing area from previous guests.

Enjoyed a week of rest and relaxation at this resort. Lovely staff, friendly and helpful. Beautiful villa on the ocean. Loved having assigned chairs at the beach directly in front of my villa. Nice options at the buffet. The lobby bar is a plus, comfortable furniture to lounge in day and night. Great bar menu and live music at night.

The hotel was exceptional. The airport is the next island so plane noise was constant, but didn’t really bother us.
The beach water is clear but not swimming depth
Perfect for kayak because water is so calm.

Everything about this resort was spectacular from the staff to the amenities, etc. However, what really stood out to me was the quality of the food. Every meal was tasty, well seasoned, and fresh and every dish was constantly replenished. Ice cream instead of a welcome drink was very "cool";-) and my taste buds were pleasantly delighted with the cardamom crème brûlée!

Amazing and professional resort. They are reliable, attentive and the closest resort to the airport for convenience. Great for long stays, as well as shorts stays for the beginning and end of the vacation, so you can hop off your flight and be relaxing in minutes, or spend your final day relaxed knowing you will make your flight on time. I always recommend Kurumba Maldives.

Kurumba was everything I imagined and so much more. The staff were incredibly courteous, the room was spotless, and the open bathroom was hands down my favorite part of the bungalow we stayed in. Huge shout-out to the water sports team, and to all the wonderful people we met along the way. Truly an unforgettable experience.

I love how the staff treated me and my friend, they are attentive, welcoming and every time they had the chance they ask how it’s the vacation so far. They have different dining options, the activities you can book at place, they give you one hour free kayak daily and also snorkeling equipment. We had the opportunity to met the general manager and some of the kitchen staff, like the sour chef Pedro from Brazil, he was delightful and helpful due to the breakfast for out early check out. I love my stay there, definitely I’ll come back if I have the chance.

Kurumba was a wonderful place for us to stay in the Maldives that was close to the airport but at the same time felt a world away. The snorkeling, spa, gardens, beaches and food were all wonderful. Anna was a huge help to us and so gracious.

It was a great place to be as I prefer the quiet and tranquility which the resort provided. The natural vegetation and beautiful orchid garden was a highlight. There are activities for everyone on the resort. I would recommend this place to family and friends who would like to take time out to relax and spend quality time with each other.
