Thoddoo is a great island with beautiful beaches and places to snorkel. We really enjoyed our time there! Especially the staff at Athiriveli was great, they helped us with everything, drove us to different places of the island, organized a great Manta snorkeling trip and were so friendly all the time. Also breakfast and the room were good, especially for the price. Best place to stay in Thoddoo!

Very nice place to stay on Thoddoo! It's silent in the night, 6-7 minutes to the beach. Staff cleans rooms and leave a free bottle of water every day. Also we have a refrigerator in our room which is totally useful in such a hot climate :) You can choose between maldivian and european breakfast — we prefer the first one, it's very tasty. If you're going to the excursion early in the morning, you can ask the staff and they will pack the takeaway box. Special thanks to Farish, the owner of this guest house. He is very helpful and always available in WhatsApp.

Clean and comfortable guesthouse location, there is a kitchen, flippers and snorkeling masks. Guesthouse manager Dima, spoke about the island and places of snorkeling, shops and restaurants. The fact that the guesthouse located in the center of the island turned out to be more advantageous, because it is equally-distant from two guest beaches and is located close to shops and restaurants.

Great guest house, our room and bathroom were spacious enough, very clean, maintained every day. Free bicycles to go to Bikini beaches, good position of guest house, very near one of them. Restaurant and local store are near also. Island is very peaceful and quiet, true vacation, we stayed only 5 days, and we were sad we couldn't stay more. Our hosts were very kind, helpful whenever we needed.

New and well maintained property. Clean and spacious rooms. Closer to everything you need. Provided free bicycles and snorkeling equipments.

If the authentic experience and the feeling what it is like to be a part of the local culture, is what you are looking for, then Thoddoo and guest house AthiriVeli is the right place to visit. My expectations were surpassed. I stayed only 4 days. Durring that time I noticed that Faarish, The Host, concentrate on guest experience. He helped me with everything I asked for,... even beyond (transfer from/to airport, trip organization, tips and advices...) There is very good restaurant, KAVAABU, just around the corner. Thoddoo is beautiful green island with gorgeous beaches. My room was spacious, comfortable and cosy.

Athiriveli is an amazing guest house. It’s situated within close walking distance to both tourist/bikini beaches. Faarish is a great host and made sure that we were well looked after while on Thoddoo - giving us a tour of the island, restaurant recommendations and taking us on a fishing excursion. We had such a wonderful time and would definitely stay there again!

Everything was exceptionally good,from the warm reception, to the room cleanliness and cosy nature, its was a home away from home I recommend this place for all including my African friends especially my Nigerian colleagues to visit athreveli , no need for the waste of huge money for the resorts you will definitely get all in in this place , fresh fruits, fresh meals well prepared ,comfort

Absolutely loved my time here. Our host (Fido) was a legend from the moment we landed at the airport. Honestly went above and beyond for us at anytime. The place itself is actually amazing so clean and modern. The island of Thoddo is very quiet but perfect to chill out, cycle or snorkel around. Highly recommend if your after a non resort stay and would love to go back.

Eine nette Atmosphere, Gastrfreundliche Inhaber. Strandnähe, Korallenriffe ganz nah-Mantas sogar ohne Ausflugsboot zu sehen. Sehr reiche Welt der Korallenfische.

Legal information
Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
