Royal Island Resort

Royal Island Resort is a private island in Baa Atoll of the Maldives. The beach is very good, but a breakwater located right near the shore (except for the south-west side of the island) slightly spoils view to the ocean. On the other hand, there are no waves, so you can comfortably swim or snorkel right from the beach. The bottom is sandy, but with a lot of broken corals. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]

Many rooms are old, but renovation is in progress now. So when you get there, most likely that everything will be Ok.

Lifehack #1: If you order half board meal plan, the dinner will be about twice cheaper than a la carte.
