Oasis Dhigurah has the elements of a resort yet with a small amount of guests, this enabled the staff to really take care of you. A particular shout-out to Mr. Waruna for treating us so well, you made our holiday! Oasis Dhigurah provides amazing excursions at a fair price, the food is one of the best on the island and again their hospitality is unparalleled. They surprised us with a beach dinner because of our honeymoon, it was a truly magical experience, thank you!!!

You dont get to see the sea from your hotel, but it is just a few steps away. But from the first minute i stepped on the island there was a hotel staff member who picked me up, took my backpack and led me to the hotel. After a welcome drink I was provided with the room keys and short explanation how everything works. Buffet breakfast is nice even with fruit and cakes and they alter it every day. Hotel also provides nice snorchelling excursions.

Professional staff, excellent service, great amenities ! The best place to stay on local Maldives islands. It’s obvious the hotel owners invested wholeheartedly - they organized transfer pickup to and from Male in a quality smooth speedboat (which made a huge difference compared to other local speedboats). Hotel restaurant was best value and quality food compared to other restaurants in the island. We ordered food multiple times directly to our room. Staff were really friendly and attentive - many thanks to onu and zhidan.

Our stay went extremely smoothly in this hotel. The location was great, the room was spacious and very clean. The staff was nice and helpful. We appreciated it a lot for cooking some vegan food for us outside the standard Menu. The manager of the hotel was absolutely nice and helpful with all the information - she was always in the front row to help us.

My wife and I recently had the privilege of staying at Kandima aqua villa hotel, and it was an experience that completely exceeded our expectations in every possible way. From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in an environment of unparalleled luxury and tranquility. The villa was a stunning blend of modern elegance and natural charm. Perched above the crystal-clear waters, it offered us mesmerizing views that were a joy to wake up to each day. The private deck with its direct access to the water was a personal highlight, offering a secluded and serene spot for us to relax and enjoy the beauty of our surroundings. The service was beyond compare. Every staff member struck the perfect balance between professionalism and warmth, ensuring we felt pampered and well cared for throughout our stay. Their attention to every detail, from the exquisitely arranged room to the tailored recommendations for activities and dining, was impeccable. Dining at the hotel was a culinary journey like no other. Each meal was a celebration of fresh, local flavors, served with impeccable presentation. The variety and excellence of the food catered to all our tastes and preferences, making each dining experience a delight. The array of amenities and activities on offer was impressive. Whether we were snorkeling among the vibrant coral reefs or indulging in spa treatments, there was never a moment that wasn't filled with wonder. The hotel's dedication to providing a unique and unforgettable experience shone through in every aspect of our stay. In conclusion, this aqua villa hotel didn't just uphold the standards of a 5-star establishment; it completely redefined them for us. It was more than a mere stay; it was an unforgettable journey that my wife and I will treasure forever. We left with cherished memories and a yearning to return. For anyone in search of the ultimate in luxury, relaxation, and natural beauty, this hotel is undoubtedly the perfect choice.

Novruz bayramı ərəfəsində getdik və hava super idi, əsl sezon idi. Yenilənmiş Deluxe Pool Beach Villanı seçmişdim istirahət üçün, çox bəyəndim. Təmiz, geniş, səliqəli idi villa. Qarşısında şəxsi hovuzu və dənizə birbaşa çıxışı var idi. Otaqda lazım olan olan bütün avadanlıqlar və əşualar var idi. Hər gün səhər saat 8-dən hovuzumuz və bağçamız təmizlənirdi və tez tez dərmanlanırdı. Yaxşı kı bu villanı seçmişdim. Hava limanından 15-20 dəqiqəlik məsafədə yerləşir ada. Sürətli katerlə gətirdilər bizi. Çox gözəl qarşıladılar, çox dadlı sərinləşdirici işki vermişdilər bizə. Düzü çox adam xoşlamır hava limanına yacən olanda ada amma bizim üçün yaxşı idi, çünki uzun yoldan sonra birdə yenidən təyyarə ilə daxili transfer çox yorucu olardı. Qayıdanda uçuşumuz səhər saat 9:00 da idi, səhər saat 6:00-da bizi transfer etdilər geri, kpmək etdilər check-inə qədər. Personal çox mehriban, diqqətcil və hər an köməyə ehtiyac olanda tez məsələni həll edirdilər. Hostesimiz Azaliya həm ingilis, həm rus həmdə türk dillərini bilirdi deyə onunla ünsiyyət rahat alınırdı və gündəlik proqramlar barədə bizi məlumatlandırırdı. WIFI çox yaxşı tuturdu, bircə bəzən dəniz kənarında olanda tutmurdu, oda olmasa yaxşıdı istirahətim pozulmurdu mesajlardan zənglərdən :) ARAAMU SPA zonası çox möhtəşəm idi və bəxtimizdən 1+1 kampaniyası var idi, bir masaj alana 2-si hədiyyə və inanınkı bu ona dəyərdi. İnsanın ruhu dincəlir. 100 dəqiqlik çiçəkli vanna ilə massaj götürmüşdüm, çox gözəl idi. Turlardan isə delfinlərə baxmağı götürmüşdüm, oda çox möhtəşəm idi, məsləhət görərdim. Dəniz sahili isə sözsüzki unudulmaz gözəlliyə sahibdir, dənizdən doymurdum. Koral rif isə çox zəngin idi hər cürə balıq növü, skat, bala akulalar görə bilərsiz, yaxşıca snorkelling edə bilərsiz. Yeməklərə gəldikdə isə, bizdə full pasnion idi, gündə 3 dəfə yeməklə, yalnız su daxildi, qalan içkilər hamısı əlavə ödənişlidir, ümumi yeməkləri pis deyildi, nəsə tapacaqsız yeməyə, ac qalmayacaqsız.

Excellent and spacious overwater villa, stuffed with everything imaginable for comfort, fresh fruits every day, snacks. Very private. Every staff member is extremely courteous, friendly and professional. We aways felt welcome and cared for. Our host Samih was always responsive and proactive, he even called me when there was enough wind to do kitesurfing as I'm into it. I loved the gym and SPA facilities. We ate the most delicious food served in the restaurants. One & Only brand will be associated with high class and luxury for us from now on.

Amazing landscapes, delicious food (each day would bring sth new), wonderful, always smiled and ready to help people, reef near the hotel (colourful fish, turtles, sharks and mantas). Rooms cleaned every day, towels changed each day, trip from/to the aiport organized, so just after leaving Arrivals Zone at the airport we were taken care of. Lizzards, bats, tropical birds and a hen ;). No need to wear shoes while walking on the island. No crowds, peace and quiet. Would love to come back there one day....

We had a wonderful stay—our room was comfortable and well-maintained. The food was absolutely delicious, and a special thanks to Chef KRISNA for his excellent preparations and the personal touch he added to our dining experience. The service staff was also exceptional—very courteous and attentive special thanks to JUSICA . The only drawback was the poor Wi-Fi connectivity, which could definitely be improved. Other than that, everything was great, and we truly enjoyed our time here.

Hulhumale despite being busy like the rest of Male has an airy feel to it with lots of greenery - almost colonial. The East side is quiet for traffic although it's close to the seaplane flight paths - I didn't find that intrusive. The West side has the harbour with the ferry terminal and where the liveaboards anchor between trips. When I was there there had been a lot of recent building work so I would avoid staying there. Lots of options for buying fresh fruit and vegentables if you need and a range of places to eat at different price ranges.

I loved the proximity to Male for ease of arrival and departure. I also loved looking at the city lights from afar, whilst being separated by stunningly turquoise waters and the gentle sounds of lapping waves. The marine life in the lagoon was plentiful and beautiful, and I had many marine visitors near my villa at all hours of the day. The snorkelling with sharks-excursion was probably the single best experience, but the resort itself was the star of the whole experience. The quality of the villa (amazing bed, wonderful toiletries from L'Occitane, the view, the constant refill of free fresh water and Nespresso coffee) and the rest of the resort (amazing food, world-class spa) was the stuff of holiday dreams!

We LOVED Dhiffushi!

We LOVED Dhiffushi! A real taste of a local island, the thing that struck us was how quiet and peaceful it was. We wandered everywhere on foot and loved that the roads are all sand. We were there in monsoon season and experienced some storms but they were short and everyone just gets on with stuff. There was some rubbish washed up on the non-hotel beach areas but most hotels keep their areas spotless. Both bikini beaches were absolutely stunning. Would definitely recommend Dhiffushi as a real gem of a local island. As an added bonus, we could not believe how cheap everything was too!

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.

Ukulhas has a wonderful house reef next to Bikini beach which is beautiful and plenty of places to sit in the beach in the sun or shade all day. Great access to snorkeling and other water excursions. Other than that, not much to the island. Walked around the whole island and really sad to see how unkept the public areas are. Other than bikini beach and house reef, not much to do.

You're a captivated audience on such a small island but there was more than enough to keep you occupied for the week. The food was excellent, the staff extremely supportive and I think that RIU have a near perfect arrangement for the 'all inclusive' experience.
