    I absolutely love your videos. And soneva fushi, but my favourite part of the resort is the breakfasts as they have no competition of the sheer quality. Use your travel information regularly for trips overseas, and have helped me massively over the years. Keep posting quality vids for many years and have safe travels!

    The Soneva ultra lux resorts set a very high standard in the Maldives. Having been fortunate to have visited all of them the experience is like nothing else I have ever had in any other resorts of this caliber. I will forever thank and be grateful to this channel for bringing to our attention the beautiful country of The Maldives and introducing the Soneva brand to us…. Cheers! 🎉🎉🎉

    Wonderful video as always! Thanks for the update on this beautiful resort - it has spoiled me for all Maldives' resorts as your previous videos are the first ones I saw about these beautiful islands.
    However, I am specifically posting to thank you for sharing the information about the resorts' sustainability efforts that is printed in the front of their menus. I paused the video so I could read all of the information, and having done so I am amazed at the effort taken to minimize its impact on the environment, both local and global. Granted, I haven't read the resorts' websites about their sustainability efforts recently, but frankly - how many people do? Your sharing of this information is a benefit to not only the Soneva Jani resort but to anyone who might want to visit it. I know if I were in a position to do so (only if I win the lottery, alas), this would be a big YES in my decision matrix when deciding on a place to stay - and spend my money. Thank you again for what you share about the places you stay!

    next long term goal for all of maldives is to get rid of Thilafushi. Something Shivdasani also addresses, teaching other resorts on how to avoid bringing trash to Thilafushi. Plastic, batteries and electronics being the hardest things to deal with. Soneva regulates it in a way that those things need to be packed in the luggage leaving the country, but that only means that it's thrown away at the airport, not on the island.

Maybe understandable when the clinate is hard to grow much more vegetables in. When you take a german approach to it, you can't have anything delivered to the restaurant which isn't grown there on-island... But that's not a german approach there :D

    For almost $8000 a night on average, the food looks pretty average such as the Dinner at Out of the Sea dishes. The quality looks like what you would expected from an all inclusive which is pretty disappointing once you pay for all that. Also, use some damn fly covers or fans. Again, paying for THAT MUCH AND YOUR FREAKING FOOD GETS CONTAMINATED. What the fuck.
