KazakhstanWe had an unforgettable week at Rihiveli Residence. The experience was simply superb! The staff was incredibly attentive and hospitable, always ready to assist with any of our requests. The room was spacious, with a stunning view of the sea, and equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable stay. Overall, the experience was mixed. The positives included the cleanliness of the room and the convenient location of the hotel near the beach. We enjoyed excellent service at the hotel restaurant, where culinary masterpieces simply amazed the imagination. And how they celebrated my birthday, you have to see it to believe it. We will definitely come back here again and again!

SlovakiaOur recent stay at Atoll Residence on Dhangethi Island was truly unforgettable. The location, nestled directly on the beach, provided a picturesque backdrop for a perfect tropical getaway, near bikini beach. The rooms were immaculately clean and comfortable, offering a peaceful haven.
The on-site restaurant surpassed expectations with its delectable cuisine, offering the option to order both lunch and dinner. What truly stood out, however, was the exceptional hospitality of the owner Assad, who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction throughout our stay.
Additionally, the seamless transfer arrangements made our journey hassle-free, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the island paradise. With the option for various excursions, including exploring the mesmerizing marine life, Atoll Residence offers an ideal blend of relaxation and adventure. I highly recommend this accomodation anyone seeking a rejuvenating escape in the Maldives.

Czech RepublicThe place was exactly what I expected - cozy and clean. I was very surprised, that there is a hair dryer with a diffuser attachment in the room. As a curly girl I was endlessly happy about that! Also the room is equipped with an iron and a spacious refrigerator, which I appreciated too.
The stuff is very nice and friendly. The owner Musa is always there for you and ready to help.
The breakfast was great. Fried potatoes and pancakes are my favorite.

ItalyI loved the atmosphere, the attention to details in and outside the rooms and with guests too. Food (breakfast and dinner) is delicious and healthy. Good position, 3 minutes walking from the bikini beach. Staff is fantastic, they pick you up and take care of you luggage, they organize the excursions for you giving you water, food and umbrella for the sun. Rooms have a/c with dry function and ceiling fans. We really felt cuddled. Thank you Noor for your kindness!

From the very first moment, we arrived at the airport and met the Kandolhu team until our departure. Every detail of our stay was flawlessly orchestrated to create an exceptional experience. Though we stayed for only three nights, the warmth, professionalism, and excellence of the team made it truly unforgettable.
Location: The journey itself is part of the magic—just a 20-minute scenic seaplane flight followed by a short 5-10 minute boat ride that transports you to this paradise.
The Island: Small, serene, and breathtakingly beautiful, Kandolhu is the epitome of a private island retreat.
The Resort: Thoughtfully designed with just 30 villas, the property balances exclusivity and comfort. It offers five outstanding restaurants, a stylish bar, a well-equipped gym, a serene spa, and a sea activities center—ensuring that every guest finds their own perfect way to unwind.
Our Villa: We chose an overwater villa, and it exceeded all expectations. With a private pool and direct sea access, it provided the perfect blend of luxury and tranquillity.
Staff & Service: The essence of true hospitality is mastered here. The team anticipated our needs before we even realized them, creating a seamless, highly personalized experience. Their warmth and attention to detail set a new benchmark for excellence.
Dining: A standing ovation to the executive chef, sous-chefs, and the entire culinary team. The food was fresh, inventive, and packed with flavour. With five distinct restaurants—offering Mexican-Peruvian, Mediterranean, Japanese, Sea Grill, and an all-day dining option—every meal was a delightful journey of taste.
Spa: We had the 'couple ritual'. A sanctuary of relaxation, the spa at Kandolhu offers a truly rejuvenating experience. With expert therapists, soothing treatments, and a tranquil setting, every session feels like a retreat within a retreat—perfect for unwinding and embracing the island’s serenity.
Housekeeping: Impeccable.

We had the most amazing stay at the Amaya Kudah Rah. The whole experience was perfect from start to finish: from arriving at the resort via the beautiful seaplane and the warm welcome from the staff (including complementary massages!), to the well-organised and seamless departure.
We stayed in a Beach Suite and consider it the best of the accommodation options on the island. The water villas are lovely, but the beach suites are gorgeous and we were very impressed with the size of the private pool and the outside deck, which looked out directly over the pristine beach just metres from our terrace.
The whole island is beautiful, even more so than in the pictures. The buffet food was tasty and there was always a lot to choose from.
Overall we had a wonderful stay and would very highly recommend the Amaya Kudah Rah. Thank you to all the staff for being so friendly and making our stay so special!

The house reef really worth to go and see there for: it's just few steps from the shore with many fishes, live corals, anemone fishes (clownfishes), baby sharks, some sea turtles. We were even lucky to see one Manta. We enjoyed free snorkelling equipment. Only be aware that there are always strong currents arround the island, but we thought they are pretty safe. Besides - water sport instructors organize a free snorrkeling guide twice a day. We enjoyed a very good soundproof of the water villa, even on strong wind / waves day / night. The food is always fresh and tasty. The wi-fi is pretty good. We didn' lock the door of our water villa - we felt very safe there. We enjoyed a Vertical reef and Coral garden excursion - highly recommended. There is some very good vibe on this island which you can't love. It's not a cheap resort, but it's worth 100%. Some day we'll come back :)

I have never been to a more beautiful place than Nika Island. The island itself is put together like a beautiful garden, the staff is friendly and accommodating, the food is tasty and fresh (the salads are right from the hotel's own garden!), but most of all: the coral reef around the island is ridiculously beautiful! in just one week we saw at the reef's edge (just a minute or two from our water villa) everything from giant fish schools to turtles, sharks and even a manta ray

Check out 14.30 as our flight was at 19.45 in male. Food like no other. Shame there is no choice between waterplane or cheaper boat. We looked at prices and waited for good deal.

An amazing snorkelling beach -no boats or travel required -just thousands of colourful fish and turtles, perfect white sand and palm trees. The concession stand sold delicious, fresh-picked fruit-watermelon, papaya, bananas. We loved the Coccoa beach restaurant and the Black Anchor and the Mango House had fabulous lattes and desserts.

The most beautiful sea I have ever seen in my entire life. And mind you, I have visited many seas in many countries! For food, I recommend the restaurant at the Dhiguveli hotel and the Teapot restaurant. Getting around the island is very easy; you can reach any place quickly on foot. Don't miss going to the sandbank at one of the ends of the island.

I didn't like that the island lost most of it's green and I didn't see the wild nature I prefer. There was a lot of construction going on the moment I was there, I felt discomfort because of that. And maybe in 1-2 years it's going to be over I think. But on the other hand there's just amazing diving on the house reef and nearby reefs. There's a lot of nice restaurants and there was no day I felt bored.

It is a small enough island to walk around. The locals are extremely friendly - always saying hello.
There are 3 restaurants all along the west coast. Compass seems most popular. But all are good with same offering of food.
There is a fair amount of building going on at the moment as they gear up for more tourists.
We used South Ari Dive for our diving trips. They are professional and friendly.

You need maximum 3 days to complete all trips, any more than that would have to be someone who loves water sports as these are the main activities in this country, anyways.
Bring a mosquito or any insect repellent, you will need these after a stroll on the shores or anywhere there are plants.
Also have an anti-nausea pill if you are the seasick type.
Taxis have a fixed price for each location, check that out.
Alcohol in the resorts is expensive but then again that's all you got.
Best to pay all meals or include dinner in your package as there are almost no restaurants outside, depending on the island, and if you find one it's either a chips or coffee spots.

The snorkeling is really fun! The whole island stands on coral reef and there is a lot to see! Maybe bring your own equipment, although you can rent. I don’t recommend the visit to the local island, nothing to see there
We absolutely recommend

A Wonderful Beach Holiday.
A Wonderful Beach Holiday. Necessary structure: shops and cafes are available. The ability to pay with a bank card, as well as in cash (USD, MVR). Good exchange rate in all places. I was pleased with both Mathiveri and Mathiveri Finholu: the beaches are clean, the sand does not burn your feet, and there is a comfortable "coolness" in the shade of the trees.

"The beaches at the island are absolutely beautiful, with stunning shorelines on both sides. The jetty area offers a fantastic viewpoint for spotting nurse sharks, and the island is ideal for snorkeling with vibrant marine life. It's conveniently located not too far from Male' city, and nearby sandbanks add to the charm. The island also offers exciting excursions and diving trips, making it a perfect destination for adventure and relaxation.
