DenmarkThe view from the room is truly one of a kind. The room has been decorated in good style and the hotel property in general is a beautiful place to be, be it on the rooftop or by the restaurants. It’s a mere 45 mins by speedboat from Male airport, but you can also take public ferry as it’s much cheaper and worth it for the experience. I would come again and recommend it to others, the property was a highlight of our trip to the Maldives.

From
KenyaThe location of the accommodation is close to the beach. We walked for 2minutes and we were at the crystal clear waters of Thulusdhoo.
The attendant Harry was the best. He was at the port to receive us and on the day of leaving he made sure he saw us off at the same port. He also was ready to help us locate good eateries, he was simply the best friend we had in thulusdhoo.
The accommodation is near the mosque, I was able to hear adhan from my room and was able to attend magrib congregation prayers. Locals were very welcoming.
Excursions organised by Harry were very affordable too.

From
TurkeyFirst 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 breakfast is really good!
Everyone in the hotel is so welcoming, helpful, and always at your service; they made our stay on this lovely island even more memorable.
We're definitely choosing this hotel if we visit Dhigurah again.

The closest access to the beach is just 5 minutes away by walking, while the “main” bikini beach is around 15 mins away. Wifi works. The food was also good. We will definitely come back in the future :)

We spent 12 beautiful days in Villa Resort in January 2024 and it was one of the nicest holidays ever. The accommodation in completely renovated and newly furnitured Lagoon Beach Villa (nr. 115) was very comfortable, with amazing services of housekeeping team (namely Mr. Ahunaf) with excellent daily morning and evening cleaning and minibar replenishment. The food in the restaurant was also excellent with many different tastes every day (including daily fish/sea foods). There is absolutely nothing to complain about chefs and the service, who were really great. The waiter, Mr. Aswar, who took care about us, is having amazing memory of the guests' habits and their tastes.... we were just sitting at the table and the fresh juice was already on its way. We also used the services of the diving centre with really friendly and helpful crew. Samuel was guiding all dives safely and locations were nicely chosen.

Our stay was absolutely incredible. We were greeted with the lovely reception at the pier after a very comfortable short trip via speedboat. We then enjoyed the brand new beautiful, spacious and quiet over-water villa with a wonderful sunset view and private pool. Ibrahim was our host during our stay - he was always available when we needed him and exceeded with everything we asked for! From helping us get to places, sorting restaurant reservations, to giving us tips for snorkeling spots and having answers to all our Maldives-related questions. The resort and facilities were perfect - all restaurants were amazing, especially Baan Huura and Origami. Roshan and Sony at Origami truly made our night special. For people that like activities, there is more than enough to chose from. We really can't wait to be back. All in all a perfect place to stay and relax and enjoy time away from a busy time at home.

I just loved how clean the property was, and what felt like singular one on one attention from all the staff right from the coffee shop to house keeping to just about everybody. :) Our preferences were remembered at the breakfast/dinner buffet, and the variety of cocktails were top notch! The spa was absolutely exceptional and literally transports you away to bliss. I also really appreciated how well planned they were in regards to arranging our quick water taxi ride from the airport to the hotel, as well as during our return journey. :) Also, the sheesha by the beachside was the best!

The staff are all incredible and very friendly and willing to assist with anything you may need however as everything appears to be thought prior to our arrival, I never needed to ask for anything! A special shout out to Aaish AKA Mr Amazing who made our welcome an amazing experience and sorted us an amazing upgrade for our Honeymoon. He was always interested in what we were doing and always up for a conversation which made the stay even more special than we could have imagined.

Maafushi is, overall, a great place – the people are friendly and welcoming. The weak point is definitely the services. When it comes to hotels, don’t expect luxury. In my opinion, for what you actually get, it’s overpriced.
One big plus is that Maafushi gives you more freedom. You’re not tied to a resort – you can move around, explore, go jogging if you want, and enjoy the island on your own terms. You can book trips easily, there’s stuff to do, and it doesn’t feel restrictive.

Hulhumale despite being busy like the rest of Male has an airy feel to it with lots of greenery - almost colonial. The East side is quiet for traffic although it's close to the seaplane flight paths - I didn't find that intrusive. The West side has the harbour with the ferry terminal and where the liveaboards anchor between trips. When I was there there had been a lot of recent building work so I would avoid staying there.
Lots of options for buying fresh fruit and vegentables if you need and a range of places to eat at different price ranges.

I loved the proximity to Male for ease of arrival and departure. I also loved looking at the city lights from afar, whilst being separated by stunningly turquoise waters and the gentle sounds of lapping waves. The marine life in the lagoon was plentiful and beautiful, and I had many marine visitors near my villa at all hours of the day. The snorkelling with sharks-excursion was probably the single best experience, but the resort itself was the star of the whole experience. The quality of the villa (amazing bed, wonderful toiletries from L'Occitane, the view, the constant refill of free fresh water and Nespresso coffee) and the rest of the resort (amazing food, world-class spa) was the stuff of holiday dreams!

We LOVED Dhiffushi!
We LOVED Dhiffushi! A real taste of a local island, the thing that struck us was how quiet and peaceful it was. We wandered everywhere on foot and loved that the roads are all sand. We were there in monsoon season and experienced some storms but they were short and everyone just gets on with stuff. There was some rubbish washed up on the non-hotel beach areas but most hotels keep their areas spotless. Both bikini beaches were absolutely stunning. Would definitely recommend Dhiffushi as a real gem of a local island. As an added bonus, we could not believe how cheap everything was too!

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.
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.

It’s a nice local island.
It’s a nice local island. It’s clearly very popular, as there are at least four new hotels currently under construction. In the future, the place may lose its local atmosphere and become very touristy. The grocery shops offer only a limited selection of goods, not like what we’re used to in Europe.

Great Island, plenty to do and good snorkelling straight off...
Great Island, plenty to do and good snorkelling straight off Villa. Food, people and facilitiies were great - cannot fault. Deluxe water villas were a bit tired and really need a refurbishment - other than that great time in Kuramathi...
