Advantages: friendly people, rooms, pools, public areas very well looked after, different themes everyday Disadvantages: food variation... but what was out was tasty!
. Unfortunately as stunning as the beach was, it was filled with beach sellers everyday so no sunbeds or relaxing down there! The complex also had a group of monkeys running around which were so funny and were great fun to watch... just make sure you close your balcony door when you go out!!!
Animation were very good, all different activites throughout the day although did leave you alone if you wernt interested. However if you take part you will get colored beads that you can swap in the gift shop, which is probably one of the cheapest hotels gift shops i have stayed in!
Evening entertainment was not too great, even the caribbean do it better, they do try, but we gave up by the 3nd night and chilled out in the bar.
They also do different tours every day to local attractions which look good, but we didnt do as only there for a short time.
We did ...
Advantages: Medium Size, Pool, Good Staff, Trips, Beach Disadvantages: Sea Wall, Rough Sand, Green/Green Decor
on the sand bank but you have to pay for these. There is a board in the main reception you put your name down on and just turn up.
There maybe more on offer now as the Front of house manager was asking how could he improve the trips and evening entertainment as take up was not that good
-Diving
There is a very good dive centre on Lily Beach run by Ocean Pro who have loads of sites around the maldives Veligandu, velavaru, Merrufenfushi, Helengeli, Coco Palm and Lily Beach
Although I didnt dive as I only passed my Padi OW and AOW in the june 2005.
There were a team of divers from S.W.A.T out there possibly looking at the aftermath of the Tsunami. As always in the maldives, Nitrox is in at this resort.
I can not comment on the dive sites as I did not dive but from reading book the South Ari Atoll is one of the best
-Watersports
There is ...
Advantages: Good setting on Baga Rd, close proximity to bars and restaurants Disadvantages: Could be noisy at the front of the hotel
After exploring the resort, I would say that the The Ronil BeachResort appeared to be one of the better hotels in Baga, although the decor in the rooms is tired and the bathrooms need re-furbishing, this is the only downside - there is room service, laundry service and fresh towels daily. Most important of all it is CLEAN. The staff are brilliant, always smiling, polite and very hard working.
Our room was in one of the two storey blocks beside the main pool area, which was a sanctuary. In the rooms closer to the front of the hotel, the traffic noise from the busy and sometimes chaotic road would have been unbearable.
The air con is FREE and can be left switched on even when you are out. We travelled in April/May when the heat can be relentless, even at night, so this was a big benefit. We did not have any problems with bugs in ...
