Hotels in the Maldives

Have to start by saying that our stay at Rattehinn exceeded our expectations. It feels home, as a one united family. Having the opportunity to interact with owners, staff and guest was invaluable and unique. If you are looking to connect with pure nature and experience true local culture this is the place for you. We cannot wait going back to Rattehinn soonest.

We stayed here 9 nights and we couldn't be happier! The place is very nice, it is always clean, the bedrooms are very comfortable and they are also always impeccable. The hotel offers free bikes, it's a plus on hot days! The hotel is also very well located near the centre and the beach. The breakfast area is very cosy outdoors with a very relaxing garden and view. The staff is always present and is very friendly and kind. Special mention to Waruna who attended us at breakfast and cleaned our room daily, always with a smile and well predisposed. Also to Anoof who received us the first day, gave us the information we needed about the island and helped us with everything we needed. We also did the whaleshark excursion and we had a very good guide, it was an unforgettable experience. I recommend this place without hesitation to spend your days in Dhigurah :)

Isla Retreat is a cozy hotel that truly feels like a home away from home. Beautifully designed rooms with comfy beds. It’s the most perfect spot to relax and enjoy the peaceful island vibes. The staff were incredibly helpful and genuinely dedicated to making our stay comfortable. Especially Riddhi, thanks a lot!

clean modern rooms, great staff, tasty breakfast. helped me organize all the diving and gave me tips on the island and culture. highly recommend staying here if coming to dhigurah!!

All of the staff were very nice and caring, all the dives were amazing, very quiet and chill environment. Meals are amazing! All the three of them.

Place is new and modern, Staff is very friendly, there were 3 gentleman running the place, they were very helpful. We used bikes to go round the island.

And here we are at our second hotel hopping adventure! We chose to stay at this hotel not only because of how beautiful it looks, but also because of the wonderful reviews we read — and yes, they were absolutely true! Count me in as one of the happy guests who truly experienced their excellent service and cleanliness. From the moment we checked in, everything went smoothly. Special thanks to Mr. Riyaz for warmly welcoming us and sharing helpful information about the island and nearby spots. The room smelled fresh and was spotless! What impressed us most was how consistent the housekeeping team was — keeping our room clean every day and attending to our small requests with care. Their breakfast and dinner service was also excellent. I celebrated my birthday here, and they made it truly special — from a beautiful seafood dinner setup by the beach, to a homemade cake, room decorations, and even a surprise beachside dance moment where I felt like I owned the whole island! It’s amazing how attentive they were, even to guests’ birthdates. The hotel staff went above and beyond our expectations. We became friends with David Moorthi, and Sanjeewan, who always made sure we were safe and comfortable, especially at the beachside, until the moment we checked out. We also booked our excursions with them — the Manta Ray and Whale Shark tours — and on our first day, we met the amazing Mr. Pocky, known as the “Manta Man” and one of the owners of Chak’z 1964. Once you book, the team keeps you updated on when you’ll head out for the search. At first, Mr. Pocky seemed quiet and mysterious, but he truly lived up to his words: “If you dive with me, you are safe.” The moment I jumped into the ocean, he never left my side — even held my hand throught the time — and made sure other divers’ flippers didn’t hit me. My best friend’s guide also made sure she was safe at all times.

Incredible hospitality! Sparkling clean room, with comfy linens on a big king bed, delicious affordable meals, and just some of the best hospitality of our trip! Wow! Stay here!! Thank you, Nirmal!
