Hotel Review: Fushifaru Maldives

Fushifaru has three outlets on property: the main restaurant included in meal plans, the bar and Raakani, the a la carte restaurant.

Korakali is the all day dining restaurant that is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Korakali is the food outlet included in all meal plans. They feature a buffet for all meals as well as a fairly extensive a la carte menu that offers a mix of eastern and western dishes. The food in general is simple, yet very fresh and tasty. You can sit with your toes in the sand inside, outside or if you prefer a more stable flooring, they do also have seating off the sand. It’s a beautiful outdoor restaurant on the sunrise side of the island.

Raakani is the a la carte restaurant that offers an a la carte menu or a set menu on the meal plans and is now included in the dine-around. They offer indoor and outdoor seating and it’s a beautiful restaurant, especially if you can sit outside during sunset.

Fanihandi Bar is the main bar on property and serves drinks as well as an a la carte menu throughout the day. It’s also the pool bar as it sits directly behind the pool. All nightly activities happen at this bar, including karaoke and the Friday Maldivian night show.

There is a cute little bar cart located near the water villas that serves drinks (included in all inclusive) and snacks (not included). We did not try this out as we were not on an all-inclusive plan but I can see this being a nice spot in the evenings with a cool breeze.

They do offer in room dining as well as specialty dining options at a number of different price points. We were able to partake in the floating breakfast which was cleverly served on a miniature Dhoni, which was so fun to be able to enjoy.

They also have a variety of options for romantic dinners, starting at a romantic setup at the buffet restaurant for $100, all the way up to a $500 sandbar dinner setup. We really love how they have different options for every price point which makes a romantic dinner setup much more accessible to any guest. The setup at the buffet restaurant is out on the pier and is a great option for travelers looking for an inexpensive way to celebrate.

Overall, while they do not have an extensive number of restaurants, we did find they had good variety across the two main outlets. The food is simple, but good and I did not find myself getting bored with the mix of available dishes from both eastern and western cuisines.
