Hotels in the Maldives

I had an unforgettable stay at Handhuvaru Maldives. The staff were incredibly warm and helpful, making me feel right at home. I loved cycling through the beautiful palm forest, enjoying fishing excursions, and visiting the private island where I experienced some of the best snorkeling ever. I rate this paradise 11 out of 12 and can’t wait to return soon! ❤️

This was probably the best vacation I’ve ever had! The true definition of peace and quiet, not only because of the absolutely stunning surrounding natural beauty, but mostly, because all the staff make their best to create an unforgettable experience for the guests. The cleaning service is flawless, food is delicious - most fresh and tasty fish ever - and the private beach feels like an absolute dream. The room has lovely features, the bed is really comfortable, and everything has a very nice, tradicional (but modern) decoration. Many thanks to the owner Rasheed, for always looking after me and encouraging me to make the most of my days in Rakeedhoo. Also Niyah, for being one of the best hosts ever, along with all the rest of the staff, for so kindly always paying attention to detail in order to make me the most comfortable possible. It’s also quite easy to create friendships in between guests, as this friendly environment is promoted by the hotel owner. There are also many other activities available, such as bank sand excursion, snorkeling with turtles, dolphin watching, etc. The staff kindly provides all the necessary informations to the guests.

Very nice and quiet location. The best local island experience. The host is very friendly and provides all the information you need. Many options for day trips and activities in reasonable prices.

new clean hotel, with a good location and great staff. They met me at the airport, sent me with speedboat. Met me on the island with a buggy, took me to the hotel. Excellent service. The first day they gave me a compliment in the form of a delicious dinner! Athief is a handsome guy, well done. he drove me around the island, showed me everything and took me beautiful photos, videos with a drone. He supervised me throughout my vacation. Athief a special big thank you to you. You can take a bike, masks and fins. The hotel is very conveniently located closer to the beach. The island is very beautiful and clean. If will come back to Thoddoo, then only to this hotel.

Beautiful and cozy place with nice garden atmosphere. Good location and very peaceful. Everything is new and modern.Shiyam is great host, he arranged everything we needed.

Mr Shifau and his team are truly amazing! The breakfast is good, great location and everything is well taken care of during my stay.

Food was better than I expected. The retreat also exceeded my expectations with service and cleanliness. I do not think there is anything that I did not like. Being able to mix with the locals made it an amazing experience.

The owners of this small accommodation are very friendly and helpful. The days were filled with various little surprises. While many resorts may be lavish and expensive, Mandhoo Island offers an original experience of Maldivian life! Highly recommend to anyone looking for something authentic and unique.

Absolute beach front, incredible staff, beautiful room with balcony and sea views. Great snorkeling, lobster hunting, dinners by candlelight on the beach.

We had a truly wonderful stay at Horizon in Dhigurah! The guesthouse is cozy, clean and just a short walk from the beautiful beach. Our room was spotless, cleaned thoroughly every day and always perfectly tidy. The overall atmosphere was very relaxing. But what really made our stay special was the incredible hospitality of the staff. A heartfelt thank you to Mippo and Ahu, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at home. They were always available, kind and full of helpful advice, from organizing excursions to making sure we were comfortable at all times. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a genuine Maldivian island experience!

Having traveled extensively across the Maldives, I can confidently say that Bageecha Stay is the best guesthouse I have ever experienced. From the moment I arrived, it was clear that this was more than just a place to stay—it felt like home, thanks to the incredible hospitality and warm atmosphere created by the host, Ismael, and his exceptional team. Ismael went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of my visit was perfect. His attention to detail, deep knowledge of the island, and genuine care for his guests made my stay unforgettable. Whether organizing activities or sharing insights about local life, his passion for hospitality truly shone through. Every meal was a masterpiece, combining fresh local ingredients with remarkable skill and creativity. From mouthwatering Maldivian delicacies to innovative international dishes, each bite was a treat. I can honestly say it was some of the best food I’ve had in the Maldives, and I looked forward to every meal during my stay. The guesthouse itself was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, offering a perfect balance of modern amenities and local charm. Its location on Dharavandhoo is ideal for exploring the stunning beauty of Baa Atoll, from its pristine beaches to the incredible underwater world of Hanifaru Bay. Bageecha Stay is a shining example of what guesthouses in the Maldives should strive to be. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic, warm, and unforgettable Maldivian experience. Thank you, Ismael and Seneca, for making my stay so special—I can’t wait to return!

I have had a wonderful stay at dive and sleep guesthouse. Middho and his staff are amazing, really kind and are trying to make the most out of your vacation! I have seen a lot while diving and the underwater world was magical. If you are coming to the Maledives to dive and take some time of this place is perfect for you. The island is really small, so don’t expect other tourist or shops, but this was something i liked! The rooms are pretty, really clean and the bed was really nice and big! I could definitely recommend this location to others!
