Guest Testimonials

Authentic 5-star experiences from our valued guests at Shangri-La Villingili Resort & Spa

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Beyond our wildest expectations"

March 2022 | Villa Muthee Presidential Suite
"We've stayed at luxury resorts worldwide, but Shangri-La Villingili is in a league of its own. The 5-minute private jet transfer to our breathtaking villa with its 16-meter infinity pool and private spa pavilion felt like arriving at our own private island. The Dine by Design jungle dinner under the stars was pure magic."

"Perfect family paradise"

December 2023 | Ocean View Tree House Villa
"Our Tree House Villa elevated among the treetops was like something from a fairy tale, with incredible ocean views and complete privacy. The kids loved the infinity plunge pool and marine biology sessions, while we enjoyed romantic dinners at Fashala restaurant. This resort's size and 2km of pristine beaches gave us space to explore without ever feeling crowded."

"Solo traveler's dream"

September 2021 | Water Villa
"Waking up in my Water Villa perched on stilts with tropical fish swimming beneath was absolutely surreal. The spa's signature Kandu Boli ritual and sunrise yoga sessions were transformative for my soul. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and cared for throughout my stay. The quick 5-minute speedboat transfer from Gan Airport and being the only resort south of the equator made this destination truly unique."
