    By far the best reviews on maldives one can find. I'm a supporter of eco-friendly practices and preserving nature, so it was the best thing for me watching this review. I actually wonder if they planted the corals later, given the amount of plastic that must be going into the ocean.

    For us, eco-friendly was the MAIN criteria. This is why Bandos and Embudu excelled and Fihalhohi fell so desperately far behind in the rankings... Thanks for watching!
