If you could do a review of your blissful dinner experience. What menu/location did you end up choosing? Thank you!
Sure! We ended up doing it on the beach (near Nava in front of the cabanas) with the Maldivian menu.

Food wise was absolutely on point, you have your own private chef near the pool and your own server.

Maldivian cuisine was excellent, especially given the fact there isn't a Maldivian restaurant on the island. 4 courses in total (although it's meant to be 5 but in reality it's pretty much the same)

First being small traditional dishes with tuna, vegetables etc. some fried as well.

Second course was a wrap/mashed tuna sort of thing which was delicious.

Third (in reality third and fourth) course was a whole lobster, a whole fish (can't remember) and a giant rice with a giant curry.

Fourth and dessert was a lovely wild almond and chocolate cake with almonds from the resort and some gold leaf. Was quite tasty but nothing that special IMO.

It's worth saying that this is sooooooooo much food! I think it could've fed 6 people no worries at all. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone but my feedback to the F&B director at breakfast the next day is that the volume of food is too much, apologies if anyone else goes and wants a massive meal
