My husband and I stayed in a Sunrise water villa for 10 nights and it was just so incredible. We were greeted and also farewelled at Velana Airport by Ibrahaim; he is such a credit to the resort and set the scene for a very smooth transfer to the resort. He helped us with the baggage, he organised the visa and took us right to the gate. Fairmont felt like home after a few days and that’s thanks to the incredible staff who made our stay so wonderful. A big thank you goes to Sato who was meticulous in looking after our room (728) and was always refilling our amenities without us having to ask. He was gentle, kind and organised a beautiful bath after a long snorkel excursion. Thank you to all of the lovely wait staff Zee, Saila, Sony, Valentina, Andy, Kalhey, shahzob,Iyaah, Yazdhaan, Vivek, Subash, Niushaan and Mr Fizzy. You guys were so professional yet warm and fun! The chefs especially Toohba, Pronap and Shubha were so happy and made the most delicious breakfast’s and lunches all with big smiles. We decided to do a turtle snorkel excursion with the resident Marine Biologist Neus and she is the best! It was the best money spent on the island. I’m not a great swimmer but she was patient and calm and made me feel safe in the water and to have fun. We saw 4 turtles, one of them breached and swam with us, we saw black tip sharks, eagle rays, beautiful schools of bright coloured fish and a moray eel. We can’t wait to visit again with our two small boys 9 & 10. The Fairmont is glorious but it is the staff that makes it special. Thanks so much guys.
