I had an incredible stay at this resort! The animation team brought so much joy and each day was filled with fun activities. The food at the main restaurant was consistently tasty, and the staff, especially at the reception, made everything feel special. While the beach was lovely, it was unfortunate that our favorite beach bar waiter was on holiday. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience with minor hiccups.

I had a wonderful time at Malikia Resort, largely due to its stunning marine life and the helpful staff. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, with great tidal experiences right off the beach. While the dining options were plentiful, improvements could be made in variety and service availability. Also, the beach chair situation could be frustrating at times. Overall, the value for money is decent given the incredible snorkeling opportunities.
