Rested three of us with daughters 3.5 years.
We flew in April with Azur Ukraine from Anex, a direct nine-hour charter, there were no comments on the air.
In the morning we flew to Male airport and spent about an hour on everything, incl. speedboat waiting.
The boat arrived in 15 minutes and here we are. They settled in pretty quickly. Our room was a bungalow on the water (right side of the beach). We dropped our bags and made it to lunch. Well, then we had a wonderful vacation for 13 days.
Number:

It is awesome, we had a window and a door to the terrace overlooking the open ocean, and only the boats passing by were visible to us. In the room there are bathrobes, flip flops, toothbrushes, soap-snouts, flat TV, a bluetooth speaker (bose really fit the theme), a kettle, etc. We replenished every day water up to 3 and a half, tea and coffee bags. The bungalow is very impressive in size and a great terrace for night gatherings. From the terrace there is an entrance to the ocean, but from it we descended into the ocean only once. Since we are with a child, it was more convenient for us to swim in the ocean on the beach. We often took food in a restaurant and fed fish and sharks right from our bungalow. Sailed and stingrays to the room. The bathroom has a huge shower and a corner hot tub with an ocean view (we dreamed of sitting in it once, but never found the time).
Beach:
It was the best in my daughter's life - 'without waves and depth' and in addition some water, probably 27-29 degrees. Beach sandy corals come across under your feet, especially noticeable at low tide, but we were without special shoes and everything is ok. Umbrellas are huge along the beach, under one umbrella up to 5 sun loungers fit. Towels are given out, but if you leave during the day and leave only them on the sun loungers, then when you come back to the beach in the evening, you will have to stomp again for new ones.
Snorkeling
We swam without fins and only in our lagoon. In addition to various fish, we saw a turtle and an octopus, not small. From the conversations of other tourists, they realized that the reef is not as lively and not saturated with life as it happens in other places, but I do not have enough experience to compare.
Weather:
Of our 13 days, it only rained on the 7th and lasted about 3-4 hours. All other days are hot. The ultraviolet index at noon is always 11. In the afternoon after the restaurant, we always went to our daughter's room for a nap and returned to the beach after it. We swam until dark and then went to dinner.
Playground:
An excellent platform. After every dinner, my daughter hung out there with other children and was delighted. Next to the ping pong court and played it a couple of times.
Restaurant:

We had FB. Drinks in the morning were all available, which were poured, for dinner and lunch on the table only one and a half bottles of water. Wine and beer bought extra. My wife and I spent about 200 dollars on alcohol for all days. From the dishes I can say that the food has always been very tasty and it’s rare that I didn’t like something that I took on a plate. The cuisine is international, there was also Russian fish soup, Ukrainian lard, Spanish chicken, some kind of Polish soup, German... there have always been seafood, but if squid, shrimp or octopus, then more often as part of a dish. Delicious wok dishes with seafood and vegetables prepared with your choice of ingredients. Sweets and ice cream are always in abundance. Fruits pineapples, apples, orange, papaya, banana, passion fruit, watermelon, fruit salad also contained pitaya, carom, plums and grapes sometimes. As for vegetables, I know that my wife was satisfied, as they prepare personal salads of your choice.
Staff:
As you treat them, so they treat you. But in general, while we were of a sour cream shade, we greeted each other and smiled more willingly. We liked the staff.
Shopping:
The field trip to Ostroy with locals was closed due to the pandemic. There was only one souvenir shop on the island. The choice is small, but in vain they pulled to the last day, it became even smaller (
Total:
Cinnamon Dhowelli Island Hotel is magical! He is clean and friendly. I want to go back there and there was a tear on the last day
