1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

The white white sand and the blue blue sea... and the varied marine life.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

Enjoy it!!! It’s a quiet place, ideal for getting away from everything. Bring mosquito repellent. There are lots of bitey creatures in the mornings and evenings.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Yes. In many ways. I used one plastic bottle for the whole of my trip, once I got to Maldives, which was given to me by the airport on my way there, because the hotel uses glass water bottles.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

Superb. The most relaxing holiday ever!

Dear Anita, Delighted you enjoyed your holiday with us at The Barefoot Eco Hotel, can't think of a better way to have started 2020! I hope that you have returned home and have not yet lost your sense of relaxation! Its a pity that mosquitoes will prevalent, no doubt due to the volume of rain we had been experiencing in December. A top tip from a previous guest which has been added to our welcome information pack is to take a Vitamin B supplement two weeks before holiday and during, it worked a treat apparently. The team at Barefoot work hard to reduce environmental impact so it's great to hear you felt this was the case, not just with the water bottles but with all the other actions they take. Hopefully in the future the airport will be providing water in other containers as the Maldives has pledged to be plastic free by 2024. Thank you for taking time to leave your review it is appreciated and I will also share your comments with the Barefoot team. We look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Kind Regards Ruth
