The staff, the hospitality , whole property was excellent

Fantastic hotel, recommend it 100% to everyone. The moment I booked, Shiyam (the owner of the hotel) whatsapped me and helped me coordinate the speedboats (60 USD each way, less than 2h) + sent me a catalogue with all the activities (whale shark encounter, manta ray, etc) and the whole trip prepation was very smooth and easy. Once I arrived to the island they picked me up from the port and transferred to the hotel and was received by Anoof - a great guy - who gave me a coconut as a welcome drink. The property is small, 7-8 rooms aprox and very well taken care off. It was inaugurated in November 2024 and everything is very new and clean. The room was very spacious, AC was working perfectly, super clean and comfortable bed and a very modern bathroom and shower. Wifi was working perfectly from both the room and the restaurant. The hotel is a at a walking distance from the beaches and the "main street" of the island which has some souvenir stores and tiny supermarket. The hotel offers bikes for free and you can rent mopeds. Hotel provides towels you can take to the beach of for excursions. The whole island is 3km long and you can easily walk from the hotel to the very end of the island in about 45min-1h. This walk has the most beautiful beach you will ever see. One of the best islands I've ever been to. Breakfast is included with the room and offers both a local option and international. Quality is really good. Take into account everything in Maldives, specially in tiny islands, is imported so finding basic things such as eggs or fresh vegetables is neither easy nor cheap, however this hotel offers good products. The food from the restaurant is also quite good. The Maldivian curry and the rice with Tuna were delicious. Finally, excursions have very decent prices. Whale shark 90 USD (compared to the 500 USD that resorts charge, and it is the same sea and animals), Manta Ray (60 USD), etc. If I am ever back in Dhigurah I will certainly stay here

This is a brand new accomodation located in a very quiet area of Dhigurah, yet super close to the town centre and bikini beach. If you are looking for a calm and peaceful place, look no longer. This is the perfect spot in Dhigurah! With a beautiful tropical garden, the rooms are extremely clean, modern and spacious. They come with a fridge and AC; water, coffee and tea is provided and you can expect a delicious breakfast every morning, local or continental. The staff goes the extra mile to make you feel at home and enjoy your time in the island. We spent a couple of days in Dhigurah and felt part of a big family there. They always checked on us and gave us tips and recommendations. We celebrated a big day during our stay, and the team did the impossible to make it a memorable one. I cannot thank them enough - we will treasure these memories forever!

What a great hotel!! Nice atmosphere and the service is top notch. Nori the Host is very friendly and accommodating. He helped us with everything and made us feel at home. “Longee” who is serving the best local breakfast is always smiling and very friendly. Also he made sure that the room was clean everyday. Great job guys we will definitely comeback.

Our experience at One Season Thoddoo was excellent. The room was comfortable and pleasant, cleaned daily throughout our stay. Mimi was very friendly and always willing to help ensure our stay was perfect. Her breakfasts were delicious, and she even prepared a special breakfast for our son every day. The owner of the place (whose name I unfortunately don't remember, sorry!) was also very kind and made sure everything went smoothly. The room had a fridge and there was laundry service available. They have bikes available to use around the island. We were also treated to a fantastic dinner! Certainly, if we return to Thoddoo, we will stay with them again. Highly recommended!

First of all, I highly recommend you read it until the end. An excellent facility on a small and quiet local island full of underwater riches. As soon as you put your feet into the water at the tourist beach, you are surrounded by dozens of different species of fish, but swimming with the fish seen on Youtube is a priceless experience. Mr. Ahmad, the owner of the hotel, is a very polite and helpful person. He is very professional in making all the necessary arrangements for you when you arrive from the capital to the island, in welcoming you at the entrance and when you leave the island. If you want to participate in off-island activities, they will help you as much as they can. You have breakfast as an open buffet at the best restaurant on the island. You should definitely try the product made especially from fresh tuna. Among the 4 hotels I stayed in on 4 different islands during my Maldives trip, this was definitely the newest, cleanest and cheapest. I can guarantee that you will feel at home in this hotel. I would also like to consider that restaurants, off-island activities, and many other things on the island are cheaper than on many tourist islands. Also; Mahibadhoo may not be the best island in the Maldives, but it is a fact that there are better ones in terms of nature and tourism. But if you really want to relax in a quiet environment, this quiet and tiny island located in the natural wonder South Ari Atoll is definitely one of the best local islands you can find. Never mind that the tourist beach is smaller than some, because there are only a few people on the beach at most, so the beach is yours! I definitely recommend splitting your Maldives holiday across more than one island, as I did, and devoting at least some of it to this island and this hotel.

The resort is clean and well managed, location is very near the beach where we can sunbathe and snorkel. All the staff are very friendly and helpful, especially the manager Ms Lola and her assistant Mayddie. We had a splendid time!

Room was cleaned on everyday basis. Free bicycles, masks and fins. Owner was responsive for all of our requests.

The welcome when we arrived was outstanding. Relaxing with a drink while checking in and lots of excellent useful info. Very professional. Although close together the rooms feel very private due to all the beautiful green plants. Lovely terrace to relax on. The bed and pillows very comfortable. The bathroom and outside shower is outstanding with toiletries provided. They have thought of everything you may need right down to mossie slray. We booked half board and I highly recommend this option. Variety of choices for breakfast and dinner.
