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.

*Review of Dhiguveli Breeze, Maldives* *What we liked:* - *Extremely helpful staff*: The staff at Dhiguveli Breeze went above and beyond to accommodate every request we had. They were always available and ready to assist, making our stay incredibly smooth and enjoyable. One standout moment was when they *organized plane transport* for us to Male after we were stranded due to bad weather, and all speedboats had been canceled. We really appreciated their proactive approach to ensuring we didn’t face any difficulties. - *Great food*: The food at the resort was consistently excellent. Every meal was delicious and satisfying, with a good variety of options. - *Great location*: The resort is situated in a fantastic spot, offering both *relaxing seclusion* and easy access to beautiful beaches and the stunning natural surroundings of the Maldives. - *Amazing New Year’s Eve celebration*: The *NYE dinner* was fantastic, and the *organization* was top-notch. It was a memorable experience to ring in the New Year with such great food and an impressive setup. - *Very clean rooms*: Our room was spotless and well-maintained throughout our stay. The *air conditioning* (ACP) was a welcome addition, ensuring we stayed cool and comfortable even in the tropical heat.

    Amazing location, above excellent hospitality, all staff are very friendly and have excellent communication skills. Loved the food, and the ambiance. Facilities are clean, tidy and welcoming. Note that this experience is based on the all inclusive package and its still day 1. Highly recommended for an exquisite getaway spot. Added Review points: Second and 3rd day experiences: 2nd day: The Jahaz Restaurant Sr. Outlet Manager Mr. Mohammed Rasheed arranged for a spectacular Maldivian dinner set for us. Being such a hospitable environment, it was fully complementary and we couldnt have asked for anything better. Experience to be remembered for years to come. 3rd day: We went for the Exploration Cruise, which is also part of the All Inclusive Package. An hour cruise around the island with complementary beverages and canapé on the side. The view! Absolute piece or paradise. So far the experience has gotten better day by day. Alas, every journey comes to an end. What can I say to give the hospitality its due credit? The culture of the resort team, from the GM to the Villa Host, have been nothing but humble, generous, and absolutely professional in hosting us! The team are so down to earth that they refer to each other as colleagues, in fact, we wouldnt have known who was who until they introduced themselves to us. Special thanks to Malith and Govind at the Jahaz restaurant. To Abdullah and Marvin at the front desk for being absolute legends in making everything work smoothly. Smiley (Ismael) for being a great host at the exploration trip, everyone who played a role in making the stay that much splendid, I aplogise for being unable to add all the names, you know who you are, and last but not least, Tangi Le Grand for working behind the scenes to make it all work. We did not even realise that he was with us all along until we were about to board our flight. Until next time, where we give you your due thanks.

    We have absolutely loved everything at Constance Moofushi! It was our first time in the Maldives and after a long research, we chose Constance Moofushi for our honeymoon. The island is small, but beautiful. The house reef is just a short swim away and is full of colourful marine life. We even saw baby sharks and eagle rays during our walks to / from our room! The food was great, we loved both the Manta restaurant and Alizee - Manta is the buffet and has a different theme each dinner, while Alizee is more upscale dining, but we really enjoyed both types of food. At Manta there was always a huge selection of different food to choose from, so we always left dinner very happy! My advice is to do some of the activities offered by the diving centre - the guys at the diving centre were so friendly and truly great. We enjoyed the snorkeling extravaganza tour, dolphin adventure and the nurse sharks trip the most. We also booked one dive, after which we decided to do the PADI open water license! Our instructor Gaia was great and very patient. If you're on a honeymoon, or even if you're just traveling as a couple, there are many couple activities you can book. We did Cinefushi, the moonlight dinner and the sunset sailing Dhoni, they were both so nice and added some romantic time to our stay. We also had some couple massages at the spa - Prajin was so nice to us and is a great yoga teacher as well. The masseuses were very good, we enjoyed our massages a lot! The staff was lovely and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay and didn't need anything. Every single staff member was kind and helped us in any way possible. We particularly enjoyed seeing the staff looking relaxed and having time to chat with us sometimes, without having to stressfully run to other customers. Special thanks to Hishan, Sinaz, Luthi and the pastry chef! Kudos to the management for taking care of their employees. St.

    Advice for those who’s coming : bring your own water bottle, or you need to pay $19 to buy one. Everything was amazing! This is our first stay in Maldives and we definitely want to come back! The room was very clean and beautiful. Staffs would come to clean our room twice a day!! Food is a variety of international buffet three meals a day and very delicious. The house reef in front of our room is beyond expectation. We snorkel everyday (4 days) and found this huge school of fishes just right in front of our room (around snorkel station no.7, image attached), we even saw reef sharks and sting ray just by snorkeling! Scuba diving here was also spectacular. Madivaru is very beautiful and indeed a famous dive site. Staffs of the diving center was very accommodating and took care of us very well. This resort is self-sustainable and still very rich in nature. We happily pay environmental taxes if the resort would keep up to this high level of environmental preservation.

    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.

    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.
