Bandos Maldives has once again won Agoda’s Customer Review Award.

The resort won the award, which celebrates service excellence reflected in quality peer to peer reviews, with a high score of 9.1.

With over 35 plus million guest reviews on the platform, Agoda understands the importance of customer reviews. Agoda’s Usage and Attitude Study 2019 shows that 84 per cent of global travellers read online reviews before choosing where to stay when they travel.

“Our heartfelt gratitude to Agoda for this recognition of our hard work, our team here at Bandos Maldives for the passion and commitment to deliver an unparalleled customer experience and most importantly, our loyal guests for their everlasting support and feedback,” Bandos said, in an announcement.

The recognition comes days after Bandos Maldives reopened its doors to guests after a three-month-long closure in the wake of the global coronavirus pandemic.
