My stay at Gili Lankanfushi was nothing short of magical. The over-water villa was an exquisite sanctuary, and our dedicated 'Mr. Friday', Shazu, made everything so seamless and personal. While the food was exceptional, the dining experience could be slightly improved, perhaps by adding even more variety to the menu. The location is breathtaking, with stunning sunsets and vibrant marine life all around. Overall, I left feeling like I had experienced a slice of paradise, but a broader selection in dining would have made it perfect.
