Taj Exotica Resort & Spa
Soneva Fushi
Soneva Gili
Coco Palm
Huvafen Fushi
Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru
Baros
and probably a few more that I have forgotten.

I think it depends on what your priorities are. I need somewhere with top notch food and a bug-free bathroom. Naladhu provided neither.
Thanks for the info and the perspective. Fortunately I'm a big outdoor enthusiast so bugs are not a problem. It's the islands, and to me something to be expected. And top notch food is something I can live without. I live in NY and visit Paris often. Michelin starred restaurants are the norm so I'm sure I can live with average food for a brief while. (I just hope its at least not dog food given what you pay for.)

I'm more interested in the room itself, the serenity of the property, the house reef and overall service - although how much service will I need on an island where the idea is to do nothing?

Any comments on Naladhu against Huvafen Fushi or Baros since you've been there before? Thanks.
