The house is new, clean and beautiful. And there is a place where you can relax and enjoy the seaview nearby. The time I spent here is comfortable and chill. Since the duration I stay is low season, the guest house offering me free tour guide for the whole island and free snorkeling plus GoPro video and photo. The boss and the staff here are really, really nice and kind.

We were enjoying our vacation in Dhiguveli Breeze. Personal were very professional and hospitality. All time we had breakfast/lunch and dinner in our Hotel because it was number one in the island. They organized snorkeling trip to see whale sharks and the best place for snorkeling. Very clean and comfortable. Thank you a lot)

We stayed for 7 nights with all meals included. Food, friendly and helpful staff Many thanks to Shaheen, Fairuz, the chef, Abdullah and Ahmed for their kindness. Shaheen, the manager, was very helpful in giving us tips for exploring the island. Fairuz also helped us to discover the Maldivian culture, to talk about football and other rich and constructive conversations. The food was very delicious thanks to the chef and Fairuz. The room is clean, the bathroom is large and clean.

    The Real Paradise We will hardly be able to choose the right words to describe the great pleasure of the moments experienced in this exclusive resort. Starting from our arrival at Male airport - everything was so well organized and everyone was so attentive and polite, we were treated as if we were very special guests. Sincere thanks to the entire team of the resort, every single one of them. You were all truly fantastic, exceptional professionals, the best in the world and we are not exaggerating what we are saying, we have traveled the world, but we have never had such a great service before. You all carry extraordinary hearts and souls, none of your smiles were fake, each of you never failed to smile and greet us at least once if not several times a day. You guys are amazing, thank you for caring and being who you are. Regarding the resort and the nature around it, what can we say, paradise also exists on earth. Special greetings to our friend Jayadeva who took such good care of the cleanliness of our vila pool, to Shakir who every morning and evening took care of our comfort during breakfast and dinner, and the kind and ever smiling lady who was greeting us at the entrance of the restaurant (sorry we do not know her name). Thank you to the restaurant manager Mohamed Rasheed and the receptionist Imma who were exceptional professionals. Also great thank you to the front desk manager who gave us one of the best villas and arranged the nice set up for our Anniversary and never stopped asking us, if he can do anything else to make our stay even more pleasant and memorable, amazing professional. The cleanliness in our phenomenal villa 83 was impeccable, thank you to the person who was responsible for this. You really made us feel at home. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts and look forward to meeting you again soon. Greetings and hugs from us!

    This was our second time visiting Veligandu, and it still exceeded all of our expectations!! The resort is relaxing, quiet, and luxurious!! We love walking through the lush garden pathways leading to the restaurant . The house reef has a huge variety of reef fish as well as turtles, reef sharks, and rays. Snorkelling was very relaxing! We stayed in the sunrise water Villa this time and this suits us best as we could then sit on the back deck over the water in the shade in the afternoon. The sunrises were beautiful! Staff are very friendly and helpful. Thank you to our host Shaalee for looking after us so well and accommodating all of our requests. Dhonveli Restaurant has a fantastic buffet selection catering for dietary needs and various cuisine. The staff go above and beyond to make sure you're comfortable. Thank you to chef Suresh for cooking me the perfect eggs every morning! A special thank you to Shayan who was very thoughtful, attentive, and always making sure we were comfortable. We loved our daily chats with you! Thank you, Veligandu. We felt very special and spoilt and look forward to returning one day :)

    We had a wonderful stay at Centara! Traveling as a family with a young child and a senior (my mom), each of us found something to enjoy and relax with at the resort. One of the highlights was the resort’s very own house reef—stunning views, vibrant marine life, including fish, turtles, and even sharks! What truly made our experience special was the exceptional team at the Reef Restaurant. A heartfelt thank you to: • Jasim • Kal • Habib • Vivek • Joe (from diving center) • Salmaan (front desk) • Chingiz Another point and IMPORTANT, the housekeeping team. They cleaned the room twice in a day, which made us feel always fresh. Diving center guys, helpful and just amazing. Especially the special one is Mei (bird) Each of them was incredibly friendly, respectful, and committed to delivering top-notch service. Their warmth and professionalism truly elevated our stay. Thank you for making our trip so memorable! From Reception team all were friendly too, thanks to Duty manager (forgot her name) were super professional and flexible. Feel sad to leave the resort.

    We chose the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island to celebrate our anniversary, and it turned out to be the most unforgettable trip we’ve ever taken. From the moment we arrived, everything felt magical. The warm welcome, the stunning beauty of the islands, and the seamless service instantly set the tone for a perfect romantic escape. Our overwater villa was luxurious, private, and surrounded by the most breathtaking turquoise waters we’ve ever seen. Throughout our stay, the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of and celebrated. We loved the thoughtful sweet surprises in our villa. Dining at Ithaa, the underwater restaurant was once in a lifetime experience—surrounded by sharks and vibrant marine life was absolutely surreal. The ambiance, the service, the cuisine was all unforgettable. It is a perfect place for any celebration. We left feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, and so grateful for the memories.

    The best thing about Ellaidhoo was the reef around the island - superb reef with thousands of magnificent species of fish. The room we had with a verandah shaded by trees, lounge beds as well as chairs was great. Banal our house manager did a superb job of looking after us every day. The bed was super comfy. Loved the outdoor bathroom! Food at the buffet restaurant was great with an unending suoply of choices - great service from all staff. The a la carte restaurant was also good. We loved the fact that this resort is doing as much as possible to "green" the resort and is being very public and vocal about it. Also enjoyed the "back of the resort" tour - extremely informative - the biologist's presentation on fish at the resort; the manager's presentation on the background to the resort; and the wonderful island vegetation.

His attention to detail, warm hospitality, and genuine care made my stay truly unforgettable. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the impeccable service and the beautiful surroundings. Every interaction with the team, including Joodh, was not only professional but also incredibly welcoming. His dedication to ensuring that guests have a memorable experience is truly commendable.

    We're happy to get "Repeat guests" status and have never felt so much welcomed as at Vilamendhoo. I've been highlighting professionalism and dedicated approach of the whole Team in my previous review and have nothing to add. Just huge thank you to every single staff member for making another holiday remarkable for us - this place remains an amazing combination of an admirable nature with a caring service provided. You can just relax and enjoy your moments there (but don't forget your fins and snorkel if you're going into the ocean). We're also very happy to see how house reef regenerates - sooo many new growing corals and fish around and we'll definitely be back next year to check out on the progress :) Highly recommend!

    The team at Lily was exceptional. We arrived and they just let us feel straight at home. Jaleel always looked after us at Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner and made sure that we didn’t miss anything and since we were travelling with an infant (8 months) everybody made sure that our little one had the best time, plus the head chef prepared meals for him according to our wishes. As it’s an all inclusive resort the foods and drinks were free and the quality of e.g. the drinks was very good and not as you might expect of lower quality. Plus the house reef was super nice for snorkeling and I even did my first test dive. All in all a perfect vacation and we‘ll definitely come back

The restaurant and bar staff that we interacted with were very friendly and professional too. They offered us top notch service, made us feel welcome, and our stay memorable.

    Dhigurah is a beautiful island with a long sandy beach,...

    Dhigurah is a beautiful island with a long sandy beach, without sunbeds and umbrellas, the palm trees lining the island will provide you with sufficient shade. At the end of the island there is a sandbank, which can be reached by walking, cycling or scooter through the tropical forest. There are several shops with groceries, souvenirs and restaurants on the island. There is a lot of accommodation in different places on the island with quality services. The local people are smiling and friendly. There is a hospital, a police station, the Maldivian office and mosques on the island. Waste from the island is taken to the forest, where it is burned in the afternoon, we only felt the smoke from the waste when there was a strong wind. You can get to the island from the airport by speedboat, the journey takes about two hours, if you suffer from nausea, I recommend taking anti-nausea medicine, you will definitely need it when the waves are bigger. There is a coral reef around the island, you can see many colorful fish, we were lucky to see a turtle and a small shark. There are resorts on the surrounding atolls, to which seaplanes fly daily. What we didn't like on the island is the massive construction of new accommodation facilities, I'm afraid that in a short time, there will be more tourists on the island than locals and the island will lose its authenticity and beauty.

    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.

    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...

    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.

    We enjoyed 7 days on the island. The rooms are very clean. The food is AMAZING! Everyone from staff are kind. The resort is sustainable, they try very hard to recycle and repurpose almost everything which is really nice. All inclusive is the smarter choice, trust me😄 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

    Great for diving but not so great for snorkeling.

    Great for diving but not so great for snorkeling. The reef is very far out and at times the current was very strong. Prices for trips to see the whale sharks were quite expensive at 75 USD. And there were tons of other boats at the same spots - very zoo-like. Bikini beach, the only beach you can swim at in only your bathing suit is fairly shallow and windy. The better beach beside it requires you to be clothed. However, the local people are super nice and helpful.

    It was not my first time in Maldives and my experience there was disappointing compared to my previous trips in other resorts. The quality of service is poor and it’s a shame because the resort is lovely and the staff are nice but lack professionalism.

    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.

    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.

    Feridhoo is an island inhabited by locals.

    Feridhoo is an island inhabited by locals. They are Muslims, so respect them and wear decent clothes when walking through the village. The island has 2 restaurants with good food and fair prices, one dive base (Noohiri) and one small shop next to Shifa Lodge. We came for diving and found an abundant maritime life. There are 2 beach areas, one at the east side with the best snorkeling ground, the other at north/west side with berths for relaxing.
