FEEDBACK FROM OUR GUESTS “5th stay in 3 years and best yet!” March 2019 We are just back from an 8 day trip to Rangali and safe to say that this resort is still our favourite place on Earth. And the people are pretty good too :) The whole team are awesome but a particular mention for Azu (now in the Rangali Bar), Riyaz who looked after us on the sailing trip, Fazeel our trusted villa host and of course Stefano has the best GM job in the world! Conrad Rangali really is barefoot luxury with a lot of repeat visitors, it is large enough to offer plenty of activities and dining options without losing the desert island charm and intimacy. We always visit in school holidays when the resort is at complete occupancy yet we never seem to feel like we’re sharing this place with anyone since there is such a good balance between staff, guests and the space offered by the 3 islands Already booking our next trip, maybe May 2019...... “Dream Come True!” February 2019 This hotel is everything it is advertised to be and MORE. The water, the accommodations, the food/beverage … it’s simply amazing. We stayed for 10 days & are already discussing our return. It can be scary traveling so far away from home -however, they made it so easy. The Conrad had staff waiting at the airport upon our arrival to pick us up and literally walk us through everything. If you ever dreamed of the “huts above the water” I would tell you this is the place to make that dream come true!

FAMILY WRAPPING + ROLLING Celebrity chef Jereme Leung is counted among the best chefs in China. Former International Herald Tribune food critic Patricia Wells even went so far as to call him a “genius.” Leung’s plump xiao long bao dumplings, pancakes stuffed with minced pork and preserved vegetables, and signature handmade pulled noodles are on the menu each day at Ufaa, or “happiness” in local parlance. What you won’t see on the menu is the chance to learn how to make those dishes yourself from one of Leung’s expertly trained chefs. Gather around the massive open-sided kitchen, feet in the sand, learning the secret balance between shrimp and scallops in Leung’s legendary shumai, or how to pull noodles like a pro for the ultimate braised beef brisket dao xiao mian.

Elite Daily My Mom Was My Instagram Photographer On Our Latest Trip & My Feed Has Never Looked This Good. The wonderful thing about traveling with my mom is that she wants me to get a great shot as much as I do. She doesn’t mind redoing pictures if I’m not happy with them, and she doesn’t mind waiting in line if I’m trying to get a picture in the same spot as other people. My most-liked picture from the trip was next to the iconic sideways palm tree at the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island, and we were one of many groups that wanted a picture at that spot. My mom patiently waited while other groups snapped their own photos, and waited even longer to make sure that there weren’t any people in the background. We even took three rounds of pictures to get the perfect shot, because I wasn’t thrilled with the first two. (It took a lot of work, but we were both extremely proud of the result.)
