Taj Exotica Resort & Spa

Had the best experience , the staff is more than hospitable , they become like family . It was my birthday, they made it so special. The food was beyond perfect and the rooms n view are to die for. I actually felt homesick leaving the hotel. Will definitely come back again.

Amazing hotel with even more amazing staff. The resort is fantastic with beautiful views over the Indian Ocean. We stayed 10 days and the staff could not have been more helpful or courteous.

One of the best resorts I have stayed in. The place is awesome in its natural beauty, the resort itself is elegant and beautiful in an old world way, aging but well-maintained. What makes this resort a class apart are the people and their service with a smile attitude. i didn't hear a no or see a frown from anyone, no matter the time or the odd request we made. The team deserves accolades and more for showing us travellers what to expect from a world class resort. l may not return here but you all are a part of my cherished memories forever.

The hotel is really old so not that good quality. The service was excellent the food is also really good. The location is not so good as it's close to the mail male island so you don't feel like a remote location

This one incident ruined our last day at the resort. I had terrible stomach upset from the food I had at the dinner. The reason we booked this hotel is because, we get not only to enjoy a great hospitality what Taj stands for, but also the fact that we need not worry about food safety. During the stay we observed a few food handling issues. Despite of us informing the staff well in advance about food allergies of our kids, the staff repeatedly brought in foods that they were allergic to. If it wasn’t for my ever vigilant wife, the entire experience would have ended in a nightmare. However, on the last day I fell terribly sick from stomach upset and had to spend sleep less night in the toilet. This was ever so worrying as I have to travel the following day with a family of five. The hotel staff and doctor was supportive enough and gave me some medicine. However , there was no apologies from the hotel side and no incident report taken from the hotel nor the restaurant side, which I found was very strange and left me with a bad taste. Lesson learned: never take food safety lightly even if you are in a luxury resort.
