Reethi Faru Resort proudly shares the heartwarming journey of two cherished guests, Iain and Debbie, who recently celebrated Debbie’s 40th visit to the Maldives. Remarkably, Iain has visited even more frequently. Their connection with the resort began in 2005, when they discovered the Mahogany Group by chance, sparking a tradition that has brought them back to the island paradise every year since.

Iain and Debbie have transformed their love for the Maldives into a meaningful experience, becoming part of the Reethi Faru family. Over the years, they have formed deep bonds with the staff, sharing holidays, birthdays, and special occasions. Debbie describes their arrivals as akin to reuniting with family after a long journey, reflecting the unique sense of belonging that Reethi Faru offers.

Now retired, the couple spends up to three months each year at the resort, immersing themselves in diving, savouring exceptional cuisine, and enjoying the spa. Their enduring loyalty highlights the exceptional service and sense of community fostered at Reethi Faru. Iain notes the personalised touches, such as staff introducing new dishes or offering tasters, which make their stays truly special.

Their attachment to the resort runs so deep that parting is always emotional. Debbie admits that leaving often brings tears, despite knowing they will return soon. This emotional connection underscores the unique bond they share with the resort.

Iain and Debbie’s passion for Reethi Faru has also inspired others. They have introduced many friends to the resort, which has become a gathering point for divers and food enthusiasts. With 30 visits to Reethi Faru already, they have secured their next vacation, further cementing their connection to the resort.

Reethi Faru Resort remains dedicated to creating a warm, welcoming environment where guests can build lasting relationships and unforgettable memories. The resort looks forward to hosting Iain, Debbie, and all its returning guests for many more years to come.
