Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Dhiffushi

What an amazing time we had at Nirili Villa!! We were picked up from the ferry by a member of staff with a golf cart. The owner Husham welcomed us and had a chat about the hotel, the island and day trips/activities that are on offer. We had a room on the ground floor, which didn't have a view or balcony. We didn't mind because who needs a view when you walk 20 seconds and you are at the beach! The room was very clean and modern, bed was super comfortable, AC in good working order, filtered water in the room and good WiFi throughout the property. The restaurant serves delicious dishes for a very reasonable price. Breakfast was included and served in buffet style, very nice as well. We arranged a snorkeling trip and sand bank trip via Husham and both were great experiences. All the staff members are so friendly and go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. My friend needed to see a doctor and we were taken to the health center in no time by a staff member with the golf cart. This hotel and Husham are very exceptional in their approach towards guests. Although it is of course a business, you don't get the feeling that it is all about making money. Husham offered the first evening meal for free, my laundry was done for free and the Maldives evening buffet was free. Very unusual but very much appreciated! Strongly recommend this accomodation, you will not regret it! 🌴 ⛱️

Breakfast was vreat and lovation was best 😊

the best of everything in dhiffushi

The hotel has the best location on the island.

So kind staff aways with a smile every day. We will come back next time. Our waiter was so kind and professional. Food was tasty even for our child. The manager of the hostel responds directly.... Some tips... book your speed boat from hotel so you will avoid extra charges. Also I suggest the all inclusive package so you can enjoy except the tasty food brekfast lunch dinner also the facilities of the hotel with Snorkeling with turtles, sunset with dolphins and Sandbank trip. Also every time what u need extra facilities speak with the manager to arrange better prices. Finally ask the waiter the menu of customers which is extra to enjoy sea food in better prices.. General the island is expensive especially for souvenirs and food out of the hotel. Once more Thank you all for the hospitality

- aircon and fan - breakfast included was very good - staff were excellent - free water and beach towels provided - large size room - good location, walking distance between both beaches and local shops - kettle provided - very good value for cost

The staff makes everything easy! The take care of your belongings and make sure you have all you need from airport to hotel. Room was big enough and bed comfortable, location is great and good food. Breakfast just exact, served in buffet, lunch and dinner with a satisfying menu with local and international dishes.

This place was exactly what I envisaged as a Maldivian retreat. Nestled under trees, it provided a perfect shelter from heat after 11:00 and in the meantime it's 3 min walking to the west side beach in front of Stone Hotel. All it's very clean, the rooms are newly decorated beautiful and authentic, all was new from furniture to white crisp towels, bed sheets, bathroom fixtures. Hot water all the time and a very strong and stable WI-FI, which is something rare to find on Dhiffushi island, new AC. Adorable inner court with white sand and dimmed lights during evening. During my stay on New Years Eve period, there was complete silence in and around. Maisoon, the owner, has communicated fast and concise before arrival, he came to pick me up from harbor on my arrival (thank you once again!) and gave me all the tips about the island As I am a digital nomad, I want to return here for a 1 month, work remote from this place. My recommendations for Dhiffushi : Breakfast: you can go for continental for 9 USD at Itha or if you want buffet style and more expansive literally take 2 steps and go to Araamu Hotel Best dinner : Club Kaafu on the northern tip of the island, always great cusine, curries, fresh tuna on grill, prices in range of 10 USD portion. Tasty sri lankan style food at Crown Beach hotel, prices range 10 USD portion. I have tried many other food locations on the island, not good. Vegetables and fruits are expansive and for some reason majority of places will serve canned tuna rather than fresh. Best beach : the one in front of Stone Hotel, perfect water depth, snorkeling it's decent, amazing sunset Best transfer option : 45min speedboat, departs exactly in front of the arrival terminal at airport in Male, cost 25USD or 35USD depending who you book with. Better book your seat in advance. I wasn't aware of this fast option and I took the local Regional ferry from Male, the ferry that leaves at 14:30, time to get to Dhiffushi is 2,5-3h cost aprox 3USD

Staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Good breakfast included

It was even more beautiful than in pictures. The host was really kind and attentive, he looked after us really well, we could check in earlier and leave later than indicated. The breakfast was incredibly good and we got different breakfast every morning. The room was clean and the bed is really comfortable. We highly recommend this place.
