Club Med Faru

Is April a good time to got to FARU.?

If you don't go to Faru this April, I am afraid you might not get the chance to again. From what I heard, the lease for Faru is up and they have no intention to renew the contract because of the extension works going on at Male (the capital of Maldives) and since Faru is quite near Male, the water and atmosphere might be different.

Hi

Faru's only closing for the summer from May till Oct, and it's reopening at the end of October this year. This has been the case for the past couple of years as the summer season is traditionally the low season for the Maldives, ie CM keeps only Kani open during the low season.

So plenty of time to go along to Faru.

Hi Maukitten,

That's right, it seems that Faru will close definitively in 2006.... let's hope that the Republic doesn't change their mind !

2006? Are you thinking of going back there, Joe? Saw your photos - they are fantastic!

My friends were thinking of going back at the end of this year.

I'll go back in October/November if it opens, otherway I will be obliged to go to Kani !

Really? We might be seeing you there then! I think our most probable dates are mid-November (maybe 10-17 Nov because there will a few public holidays in Malaysia then). Let's keep each other posted on Faru plans.

Yrs truly

From what I heard tlast week, Faru will remain Club Med for another ten years, the Republic has extended the lease of the island to Club Med for that period. Seems like we'll all get a chance to go there again!
