Maldives Holidays – Bandos Island Resort
Monday, October 12th, 2009Bandos had a major face lift in 2005 which extended its accommodation and other facilities. It is a very family orientated resort and so has become popular with a range of age groups.
The new look and feel of Bandos is a pleasant balance between formal and casual and it has very much retained its Maldivian charm with thatched roofs etc. Some of the accommodation in both the standard and junior class areas have interconnecting doors for families who find themselves split between several rooms.
The bar area and other amenities are well-placed near the water, and the bar is often busy until the early hours of the morning. The restaurants, while not particularly inspiring in their decor, do serve a range of quality dishes.
Since the resort is popular with families, children who are not quite old enough to take part in some of the older games and activities will probably find other children their age to play with. Visitors with young children need to be aware that the lagoon tends to deepen quite quickly so be careful when allowing you kids in or near the lagoon.
