Cool

I've just come back from Vilu Reef (www.vilureef.com) and it was the best so far. I go every year to a different island, 2 weeks each time and cannot fault the people, the food, the level of service, the quality - everything is near perfect.

I always fly Sri Lankan and on this occasion went via Colombo. The flights are very well timed, operate on A340's from LHR and the service is excellent. Row 29 for the leg room !!!

Visit www.visitmaldives.com/resorts/index.html and select the island you want to visit. I would suggest you book through Touchdown www.touchdownholidays.co.uk as they specialise in airline staff packages.

Lastly, you HAVE to transfer by seaplane. For something like $35 per person, it's a must. You could of course transfer via Dhoni baot which is very relaxing but time consuming. Touchdown can arrange either option.

If you want to see a few piccies, e-mail me.

Hope this helps. Oh yeh, don't forget to take your partner. It's not the place to be on your tod for 2 weeks......
