Dhangethi
Facing the beachfront, Nova Maldives offers 5-star accommodation in Dhangethi and features an outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre and garden. With a private beach area, the property also has a bar, as well as a tennis court. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared lounge and free WiFi throughout the property. We arrived at Nova for a 5 day all inclusive beach villa stay, with the main aim for me and my partner to dive every day!! Accommodation The room was spacious, very clean and well appointed. The outside patio space was tiled, with a shaded double day bed. Where we chilled out after an energetic morning of diving. To the side there was a fresh water foot wash, with a sand pathway leading to a short walk to the beach. The bathroom was open air and immaculate in every detail. 2 showers, one glass walled and the other out in the elements. Dining We tried all the restaurants at the resort and were never disappointed. Soul kitchen turned out quality, as did Flames. We finished off on our last night in Mizo - which was epic. The staff were fantastic, and couldn’t do enough. Diving We dived twice a day. The dive center is very well run, with excellent local knowledge of the surrounding hot spots. The team were professional and gave detailed briefing before each dive. The boat crews deserve a mention as they really looked after you post dive fruit, coffee, water etc. Snorkelling The house reef off the main jetty was teaming with life. Lots of fish to see, rays and even the resident octopus!! Spar We had 3 treatments, a sports massage each and my partner had a hot stone massage later. Excellent treatments, and staff. We’ve been lucky enough to visit quite a few islands in the Maldives and we simultaneously said, we will be back!

A very small BnB with 3 rooms and very personalized caring assistance. Comfortable and nicely decorated rooms with a lovely garden in front of each unit. Steps from the "bikini" beach and good swimming/snorkeling, some of the best that I did during my 5-island trip. Beach towels and lounges provided. Great communications and help in getting to the island which in the end is easy as they will arrange for your speedboat trip to Ukulhas and leaving as well, they pick you up at the port. (free of charge) Ukulhas is developing, it has a number of decent restaurants, a few small markets and a portside produce market . It is not the friendliest island but it has a bit more to offer.

In addition, the resort offers a menu of bespoke romantic experiences and excursions which may be arranged upon request. The property has Chinese speaking staff. This was our second stay. And we had high hopes since our first stay was excellent - they didn't disappoint at all. The staff was friendly and competent again. The cleaning of the room was superb. The food was excellent - although since this time the resort was nearly full booked we hoped to get a bit more variety on the buffet, but this was no issue for us. They even renovated or fixed the AC - it is much quieter now and very efficient. The lagoon is amazing and great for snorkeling, swimming or just enjoying the water.

The resort is just wonderful, the staff is very kind and helpful, the facilities are amazing, there are just so many things to do just inside the resort, we thought we'd feel a bit bored with just going to the pool and the beach, but there is just so much more to be done there. The view is also incredible. We couldn't believe we were there. I definitely recommend this resort, and I'll be back there for sure.
Beautiful well maintained resort. The staff were friendly at every interaction. The buffet was great, and the drinks, cocktail and wine selection was extensive (Must try the Espresso Martini!). The app makes coordinating everything easy, and shows all of the options across the resort which made it very easy to track bookings and decide what to do. There are additional excursions, spa treatments and dinner options that are payable as an extra charge to the all inclusive
A wonderful entry-level resort. The island is incredibly beautiful and quite large by Maldivian standards. They pay great attention to cleanliness and maintenance. The renovated villas are nicely done. A great choice if you know that you are not expecting a top-notch luxury resort.
The island/resort is beautiful and we loved exploring the house reef. The staff was very friendly and always did their best to please everyone. We stayed all-inclusive and that was definitely worth it. Ellaidhoo also strives to be as environmental friendly and travel sustainable as possible. It was great to learn more about their initiatives such as reducing plastic all over the resort.
Really enjoyed our stay and everything that the resort had to offer with our all inclusive deal. But most of all, the snorkeling around the resort was the highlight of our stay.
The water in the lagoon was like it's a heaven. Perfect clean nature across the island. The stuff was very polite. A luxury resort to spend time.
