Meet the Team: Saeed, Meeru’s Senior F&B Supervisor

Meet the Meeru Team: Mohamed Saeed

Eat, drink, chill, and repeat – this may sound too cliché, but a perfect summary of a typical guest holiday experience here at Meeru Island.

For this ‘Meet the Meeru Team’ blog series, meet Mohamed Saeed, Meeru’s Senior Food & Beverage Supervisor, one of our dedicated F&B team members behind all the ‘eat, drink, chill, and repeat’ moments here in our palm-fringed paradise.

Originally from Hithadoo, Addu City (South of Maldives), Saeed works as a Senior F&B Supervisor at Meeru Island Resort & Spa and has been with the property for over 12 years.

He joined Meeru in 2009, and over the years, he has had the opportunity to progress from being a waiter to F&B supervisor, and now, as a senior F&B supervisor.

In his current role, he is responsible for ensuring that guests’ food and beverage expectations are being met. He also supervises all things related to dining experiences, including quality control, health and safety regulations, and staff management.

Meet the Meeru Team - Mr Mohamed Saeed

Why did you decide to become a Food & Beverage professional?

It is a fulfilling job, especially when I see guests happy about their vacation experience. Perhaps they come to Meeru Island for a relaxing break to enjoy their time away from the stresses of daily life – and I need to ensure that they are having a lovely holiday and leave feeling rested and happy.

What do you like most about working at Meeru Island?

Meeru is one of the largest resorts in the Maldives, with a range of accommodations, including beach and over-the-water villas, upscale facilities, and lots of things to do in the Maldives for guests.

As a Meeru team member, I enjoy the staff sports facilities where I can play with my colleagues after-work or on our days off. Additionally, we are like one big family here, and it is an amazing feeling, especially when you are away from your family back home.

What hobbies do you enjoy in your free time?

I have a keen interest in agriculture. I also enjoy reading and watching local and international news.

What is your favourite bar on the island?

Dhoni Bar is my favourite drinking spot since I have worked at this bar for a long time. It is located at the heart of the island, offering so much fun for holidaymakers of all ages. Families, couples, and groups of friends come here not only to drink and chill but also to enjoy breathtaking sunset views.

What particular beverage do you recommend guests to sample?

A lot of our guests speak highly of ‘Meeru Iced Coffee’. You can never find this taste anywhere in this world. It is just so delicious that it makes guests come back to Meeru for more.
