Pictures barely do justice to the beauty of Gili Lankanfushi, so words will no doubt fall short as well. However, I will try.
First of all, the setting is truly amazing. All the villas at Gili Lankanfushi sit on stilts above beautiful turquoise waters in the atoll. So you’re surrounded by beautiful vistas on all sides and there is always a breeze. 
Of course you come to a place like this for relaxation and there are plenty of choices for lounging: the upper deck (great for after dark when the stars are out), or ‘inside’ in the main area (when you need a break from the sun); want to work on your tan? the ‘outdoor’ deck has lots to offer.
Our villa, like most was 250 square meters (2,690 sq ft!), and every comfort has been provided. The attention to detail is amazing. For example: like most of the villas ours was connected to the island by a wooden walkway (the “Robinson Crusoe Villas” are only accessible by boat) and we used bicycles to ride to the island for dinner, or a workout, or a massage. These bicycles are made to look as though they are made of bamboo, but the little detail that floored me was a pouch hanging off the handlebar that contained a small towel. To wipe off the seat after a rain? Mop the brow after laying in the sun? 
The service was amazing, the staff was attentive and always smiling, no doubt because they work in paradise for what obviously is a well run organization.
Fantastic experience, it will be very hard to top!

We just enjoyed a wonderful vacation at Gili. Besides the beautiful beach and the amazing colors of the sea, Gili’s service is really excellent, all the people are friendly and you will believe they all do their best to make you feel good.
Gili provide a real concierge, our Ms. Friday Nana is the best, she assisted us to arrange everything wonderfully. Abdhulla, responsible for main restaurant, he made our every breakfast happy and excellent. Our house keeper is always careful and help us have a most comfortable villa.
Gili is the best, especially when you want to celebrate an important day in your life, you must come to Gili, you will have an unforgettable memory.

Very big villas. This resort has only water villas, there are no beach bungalows. Each villa has two level where you can go snorkeling directly from the terrace. You can also enjoy a romantic dinner at the beach. Wifi is free and available on the whole island.

Couldn’t have picked a better place to stay than Gili while I was at Maldives. Exuberant at everything they do to make your stay as luxurious and fulfilling as possible. What can be said about their Mr. Friday services that haven’t been said already? Truly a standard of its own kind, must visit!

My favorite island resort in the Maldives. The over water bungalows are gigantic with different rooms to venture into. I was able to snorkel straight from my bungalow and had sting rays, baby sharks, and all sorts of marine life swim by. The food wasn't as good as Six Senses Laamu or Soneva Fushi, but the overall feel of the island was my favorite. My days would be spent going on excursions, snorkeling by my bungalow, relaxing at the spa, biking the island, working out at the gym or walking the gorgeous beaches.

My wife and I stayed in one of the crusoe residences in May 2016. We stayed in multiple resorts on our trip and found this place was one of the best.
From the beginning of the trip to the end, the level of service was flawless. the resort was clean and i still remember that it had the softest sand out of all the destinations visited. I don't remember having a bad meal and our delightful Mr Friday, Atheef was always on hand to help us. They organised a dolphin trip when one wasn't scheduled and also managed to squeeze us in their japanese restaurant when there wasn't any availability. My wife was 5 months pregnant and they were very attentive and made sure she was comfortable throughout her stay, they even had a pregnancy pillow organised for us without us even asking! It wasn't cheap but 1 year on I still have fond flashbacks of our trip - that makes it worth every penny.
We are already planning our next trip with our new family member!
