Club Med Kani

Where do we start? Overrall our stay was amazing. The service; the food; the activities; the room and the location were all exceptional. We arrived very late at night, which meant the boat trip from the airport to the island was all in the dark of night and so was our trip back to the airport eight nights later, but that can't be helped as that's the only time available when flying Singapore Airlines. The boat ride was still excellent as you could see the other resorts with all their lights on. Its only about a 30 minute trip. We... more

Club Med Kani was the only choice for our honeymoon and we were happy with our decision. The Lagoon Suites made the stay I would not recommend staying in any other room type if it’s your honeymoon. The size of the suite is amazing, the décor is beautiful and bathroom is fantastic. As mentioned in other reviews the bath is great, not much hot water to fill it up but we have a bath every night at sunset drinking champagne looking out at the sea it was so romantic. The deck has 2 chairs to relax on and stairs down to the water and a... more

My wife and I spent our honeymoon at Club Med in May 2007. I got a lot of useful information from other reviews so I thought it would be only fair that I give something back to the tripadvisor.com community :) So here goes: Getting There: I happened to be in India prior to the trip so it was a short 1.5 hour flight from Bangalore, India to Male. Male airport is small but exteremly clean and efficient. It took about 30 min to clear immigration and customs (all our time was spent waiting for our checked luggage).Outside the terminal all... more

Have been to a couple other villages in Asia (Malaysia and Phuket) and we found this to be the best. The Lagoon Suites are pricey but worth every penny as you are right on the water. Beaches are just as amazing as the pics on the website. Snorkeling excursions are included (2X a day) and for the hardcore, a full scuba staff to take you out on dives twice a day (for a fee). Only downsides were that you do occassionally see kids running around as there is no mini club. Also, there is nothing outside the village on the island... more

Club Med Kani and Escapade at Dubai Our stay was from the 26 Mar to 3 Apr 2007 – a great time to visit the Maldives and, especially, Club Med Kani. The weather was superb – 30 mins of rain the whole nine days and superb weather for the rest. Though the village was full and the Easter rush was yet to start, we felt that the village was well laid out and well run, with no sense of it being crowded. Prior to our travels to Kani we took the Club Med Dubai Escapade, staying at the Hotel Movenpick Bur Dubai, which was excellent. Our... more

Hi guys, We just came back from a 6 days holiday at Kani village...it was our honeymoon ...well what can i say...we spend 6000 euros and we felt screwed up... Let's start: The welcome drink was a glass of poor lemon iced tea The food was terrible the pasta dishes were uneatable, and all the rest was just of a very poor quality , the fruit didn't taste of anything the water was mineralised water, the fruit juices the drinks everything was cheap and poor. I spent six nights eating just boiled rice and i know 12 people that... more

We have been Club Med customers for over a decade having stayed at the following resorts on our holidays: Bora Bora, Moorea, Bali, Phuket, Faru, Kani, Cancun, Turks. The last time we were at Kani was in September, the year of the tsunami. We booked our trip to Kani for March 2007 and looked forward to it with much joy and trepidation. It was our 5th year of staying in Kani. Sadly, we will not be going back. Please don't get me wrong: if you have never been on a Club Med vacation, and , this is your first time in Maldives, you'll love Kani,... more

WOW....we could not of hoped for anything better! Our honeymoon was as it should be a-once-in-a-lifetime experience. We stayed in the lagoon suites for 6 nights, it is beutiful and very spacious with spectacular views. Our first one was facing a busy beach and the 'night club' - not ideal for honeymooners - We requested to be moved to a more 'secluded' bungalow and were promised that we could the next day. The next day the reservations manager was off. Then the next day we went to her again and she said that there was nothing... more

We stayed at the Club Med Kani from 8/2 till 15/2. Overall the experience can be rated as above average but it could be much better. The food is was above Club Med standards (at least the Greek Club Med standards) and the rooms we stayed (lagoon suites) were beautifull and spacious. One problem was the lack of proper room service, which could come handy as the suites are placed the furthest to the main restaurant and at least there should be some option for such service. One dissapointment was the lack of any kind of water taxi... more

We stayed at Kani 16-23 of JAN 2007, 3 adults and 1 small child. This is our second stay in Kani after February 2004. we were overall extremely satisfied with our stay. We booked a week before and got ‘the last rooms’. Since club med airline seats were our extremely helpful travel agent (Zenith in Gland, Switzerland) booked independent travel with edelweiss air direct from Zurich, which then became a big saving over the regular club med price! Edelweiss air is the best charter company I have ever been in, comparable to a... more
