From
SloveniaStone Hotel on the local island of Dhiffushi in the Maldives was truly exceptional. The island provided an authentic and immersive experience while offering tranquility and breathtaking natural beauty. Our room was beautiful, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable, with a breathtaking view that made every moment special. The cuisine was outstanding—fresh, diverse, and incredibly flavorful. The staff was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and always welcoming, making us feel right at home. The beaches were idyllic, with crystal-clear turquoise waters and stunning sunsets. Overall, it was a flawless experience that I would highly recommend to anyone. Rating: 10/10!

SlovakiaBrand new (2024) and amazing hotel on the best (bikini) beach on the island, we couldn't have picked anything better on the island. Friendly staff always willing to help, breakfast amazing. The hotel restaurant is the best restaurant on the island, we have been to try others but here they exceeded our expectations. The sunset from the hotel pool on the rooftop is something amazing. Thank you for the best service and great stay. Would recommend...

From
IrelandSamura is the best guesthouse on Thulusdhoo. The building is not too big, rooms are spacious, bright with amazing view, with beautiful natural coconut and macrame decoration everywhere, wooden tables, mostly natural materials, inside the building and also in the outside area with frontbeach (bikini beach) sunbeds, beautiful hammocs and platforms where to enjoy the beach and coconut trees view. There is also a very cute aerial gym which is super nice. All the Staff and the manager Sanjay are absolutely kind and lovely people.
Also there is a professional diving centre (Feena diving) just 100m to the left if your looking for ethical and professional for diving trips or snorkeling trips, (no feeding, which most tours centres do, but is unethical and illegal) we highly recommend it. And all shops (gelato too) are just behind the corner.
Thank you Samura for hosting us, it was absolutely amazing!

ChinaThe service here is amazing! We could ask the staff to take us anywhere on the island, and they were happy to help. On our last night, they gave us a special treat and gifts—they even took us crab catching and cooked the crabs for us, and the taste was incredible!
The snorkeling spot has tons of corals too. This place is perfect for family trips. Also, Ali helped us so much—we got great service with every activity on the island. We’ll definitely come back next time!

There were various activities catered to the young and old. We attended the yoga class some mornings and attended the aerial classes (held by Lauren and BJJ for beginners (held by Miguel) some afternoons. Both instructors were really good and we, and all the other students, had fun trying the hoop and trapeze moves. I didn’t think I can do them, but I did. Just shows that they planned their lessons well for beginners like myself. All the people from the reception to the buggy drivers and all the restaurants were all smiles and welcoming.
The food was also good and the main and some side dishes at the buffet breakfast change daily. There were some days that are best suited to my palate and some that were not, but the egg station is always a back up in case I don’t like the main dishes so much.
For evening activities, we followed where Deviate and abracadabra performed on most nights and were quite entertained. If we stayed longer, I would have done another laxy stroll at the bridge goin to Crossroads to see fish, sting rays and a nurse shark (oh, and the heron by the pavilion).
Thank you for the great beach holiday, Hard Rock Hotel Maldives!

We had a great time at this wonderful resort. It is only some 45 mins by boat from Male. The staff are extremely kind and courteous. The team responsible for sea excursions is very informative and helpful. The restaurant provides a great variety of food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We were booked at half board and there were plenty of options to have a snack during the day at very reasonable prices. The room had all the needed amenities and was cleaned twice a day. Each room had its allocated sun beds in an idyllic environment. It takes around 15/20 minutes to walk around the island to see nature at its best. The sea immediately around this island is already beautiful to swim in and snorkel. The excursions to nearby reefs add to the experience of seeing turtles, mantas, harmless nurse sharks and all kinds of colourful fish (some of which can be seen in the vicinity of the hotel) . The island is very welcoming, well kept and very clean. A place to revisit time and time again.

-Really convenient to go from Male Int airport since the have speedy boats working 24/7 and in just 35min you’re at the resort.
-The bikes to enjoy and explore the island are so nice.
-We saw so many marine life at the island’s beaches. Sharks, stingrays, turtles and so many different fishes.

Thank you for fast and smooth boat transfer, did’t have to wait at Male airport. Also thank you for early check-in so we could enjoy the holiday as soon as possible (this is the thing that is not usually available in hotels).
We got villa 181 with beautiful sand beach and view with sea and palms. Not windy, calm & clear water.
The island has about 15 beaches, explored them all by bicycle or walk. The beaches were really beautiful.
Delicious food at breakfast and Rhabarbaro restaurant for dinner. Especially like breakfast buffet with choice of a la carte menu.

The rooms were clean and comfortable - we stayed in two different types of rooms: overwater villa and overwater villa with a pool - both were very pleasing. The hotel left a great impression on me, and we would happily return here more than once.

Maafushi is, overall, a great place – the people are friendly and welcoming. The weak point is definitely the services. When it comes to hotels, don’t expect luxury. In my opinion, for what you actually get, it’s overpriced.
One big plus is that Maafushi gives you more freedom. You’re not tied to a resort – you can move around, explore, go jogging if you want, and enjoy the island on your own terms. You can book trips easily, there’s stuff to do, and it doesn’t feel restrictive.

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!

I absolutely loved my time in Thulusdhoo - my first time in the Maldives! I feel I picked a fabulous island to spend 4 days of relaxation and calmness following a busy elective healthcare placement.
The island was so beautiful and peaceful. The beaches were so clean, white sands, the water was crystal clear, all sun-loungers free to use and very friendly locals and business owner stalls, businesses, and restaurants. A couple I met whilst away also got engaged on sunset beach with the most beautiful backdrop (a real must to visit during the evenings)!
Plenty of places to choose from to eat - from beach bars to evening dining. I went to Juice Bench every day for lunch, the staff were so kind and smiley and the food was delicious and fresh. I also ate dinner at Indulge (10/10 pizza!), Cafe Bandaha for dinner, amazing tikka masala curry and the freshest apple juice! (Breakfast was included in my hotel - Eden Blue - which I also highly recommend!).
I took two excursions with Baani Watersports - first the reef shark and stingray trip, which was absolutely amazing! The second trip was the sandbank and turtles trip, again - amazing! The team were very friendly, fun, and ensured we were looked after throughout. They took fabulous photo's of us all on their gopro which they sent to us afterwards free of charge. I also found their pricing very competitive!
Getting around the island is easy peasy. I walked every day, it is quite small so can be easily lapped in around 45 minutes of strolling. People were also using mopeds and bicycles. I also received a complementary shuttle service from the ferry port to my accommodation and back which was a very welcomed bonus.
Overall, the island is wonderful, the people are so lovely, and I'm SO glad I picked this island to spend my 4 days! I hope to be back one day soon - perhaps with someone next time so I have a companion in the evenings when it's a little quieter!

We booked a family room, and starting from the booking until reaching the Airport to go back home, Aqua Sunset was there for us; just like a family. They prepared all of our meals for us, not to forget to mention the beautiful walkway to the beach was right outside the guest dining area. So we all enjoyed the walk along the coastline, to the bikini beach together, after our meals. The end of the Marina is also right outside the dining area; where they feed the marine life & was also fun to watch with the family, after dinner. We had a super experience, too, with Aqua Sunset’s excursion management team. We booked a half-day family excursion, to swim with the turtles together, and it was so amazing! They even gave us a video of all of us together with the turtles. We all recommend Aqua Sunset because it’s budget/family friendly, the location is perfect, and because everyone made us feel welcomed. Enjoy!

Guraidhoo - ferry every day and easy to reach from Male, not so busy yet, not yet ugly concrete big buildings, bikini beach is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. White soft sand with turquoise warm water and sandy shore for fantastic swimming and walking on the sandbar - great for kids too, sunbeds and good cafe on the beach, there are corals and ship wreck for snorkeling and not to forget the shark feeding place - simply amazing to watch sharks and rays - great entertainment for the evening. There are great restaurants with fantastic prices. This island is amazing choice !

Huraa immediately felt peaceful, unique and refreshing, with serene beaches, stunning views, vibrant coral reefs, and lush green mangrove swamps that makes the island feel untouched. The shallow lagoons connecting to nearby spots, mangroves, and quiet corners create a sense of calm, while watching seaplanes land adds a unique charm. The island is vibrant yet uncrowded, offering a perfect balance of natural beauty and tranquility that makes every moment relaxing and memorable.

It was a lovely island friendly people & I think I stayed in the best place for me on this island my host were fantastic, they could not of done more to make my stay any better than it already was 10/10 perfect 😍
I loved all the food I had @ Indian cafe,loved swimming @ the local beach, not bikini beach
One thing I really disliked was Moscow yeda they tried to double charge me on my credit card when I asked them about 6 of them just started laughing, eventually I got my money back & that was the only bad experience on the whole island.
