Castles in North Ari Atoll

"Varu was exactly in its name, an Atmosphere experience! From the drum ceremony arrival to the birthday dinner on the dock gazebo to the food and the service. Impeccable! I celebrated my birthday at Varu and absolutely loved the experience. Abby, Zune and the entire crew were phenomenal. I made new friendships here. My only suggestions are more entertainment during the evenings. It's a little bit dead after 9pm during the weekdays. But we would absolutely recommend. Charcoal is worth every moment! Food might be the best we've ever had. Try the lamb skewers, Wagyu and Pork Belly. Phenomenal! My water villa was what dreams are made of! Will definitely be back. "

"I don't understand the people who give less than 4-star reviews to this holiday destination. They must be nitpickers who expect to have the conditions from One and Only Reethi Rah (the neighbouring island) at the prices from the Summer Island. Come on, you could stay there only one hour with the money you paid for two weeks at the Summer Island. All is more than reasonable at the Summer Island, I mean the location, the meals, the staff, snorkelling and diving opportunities. "

"I had an amazing experience at this hotel — truly unforgettable! I want to extend a big thank you to Shifaz for the warm hospitality and especially to Kaula, who went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. The room was absolutely perfect — stunning views, incredible comfort, and everything was spot on. From the service to the ambiance, every detail was just wow. If you’re looking for a place that offers not just luxury but genuine care, this is it. I highly recommend this hotel — don’t even think twice. If you want to enjoy your stay to the fullest, this is the one. 💯"

"Spending our honeymoon in Centara Ras Fushi was definitely one of the best experiences of our lives. It wasnt just about the luxury experience but more about the wonderful hospitality that made the trip luxtrious. We were treated with such kindness and love that my husband and I can truly say the staff became family. They were so wonderful that we formed such a strong and unforgettable bond. The food, the chefs, the people and the resort was absolutely incredible. We will definitely be coming back for our anniversary! We love you Centara, you're family now! - From Moe & Donia Harb ❤️"
