Offering an indoor pool and a restaurant, Plumeria Maldives is located in Vaavu Atoll Thinadhoo. Free WiFi access is available.

Each air-conditioned room here will provide you with air conditioning and a balcony. There is also a dining table. The private bathroom also comes with a hairdryer. You can enjoy sea view from the room. Extras include a minibar and a seating area. Although there were a few small things that needed fixing or adjustment – for example, in our room, the bidet wasn’t working properly, and there was a water leak. I’m not sure if this was what caused the unpleasant smell in the bathroom, something like mold or dampness, but it was noticeable. However, aside from this maintenance issue, I had no other problems with the hotel. The hotel itself is gorgeous, the staff are absolutely wonderful, and the breakfast is exceptional. The location is stunning as well. Overall, I would definitely recommend Hotel Plumeria – it’s well worth a stay!

Situated in Dhigurah, Boutique Beach All Inclusive Diving Hotel offers beachfront accommodation 50 metres from Dhigurah North West Beach and features various facilities, such as an open-air bath, a garden and barbecue facilities. Featuring a private beach area, the 4-star guest house has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. Staying at this hotel in Dhigurah was truly exceptional. It exceeded everything we hoped for — especially for those passionate about diving. Every single day, there’s a different diving program carefully planned by an outstanding team of professional and knowledgeable instructors. They know exactly what they’re doing and always take guests to new dive spots, focusing on unique experiences and the chance to see a variety of marine life. What makes it even more special is how the team creates a great group atmosphere. They encourage everyone to interact, creating a fun, collaborative, and friendly environment among guests. Every evening, they screen a video recap of the day’s dive — filmed and edited by the crew — which is such a nice way to relive the experience and connect with fellow divers before dinner. It’s also when they brief the next day’s adventure, building anticipation in the best way. The boat crew is also amazing – they’re highly skilled at finding whale sharks and other sea creatures, and their dedication to making sure guests have the best possible experience is unmatched. They’re truly a reference on the island when it comes to diving expertise. The hotel itself is beautiful and full of thoughtful details. The hospitality and service were outstanding throughout our stay. One of the highlights was the open-air bathroom – it’s such a unique experience to shower surrounded by nature. And the food? Absolutely the best we had in the Maldives. From the moment we arrived, they asked about dietary restrictions and then surprised us every day with a different, delicious menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Every meal felt like it was made with care and creativity. We can’t recommend this place enough – for the hospitality, the incredible diving, the amazing instructors and crew, and the overall experience. Just perfect from beginning to end.
