Hotels in the Maldives

From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the hotel's beauty. It's a truly beautiful and very nice place, offering a serene and peaceful escape from the everyday. The ambiance was perfect for relaxation, and we found ourselves completely unwound during our stay. We enjoyed our stay there, and we're already talking about when we can return. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their friendliness and helpfulness were outstanding. And let's not forget the food, it was absolutely delicious! Every meal was a culinary delight. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and we highly recommend it to anyone seeking a tranquil getaway.

The stay at Rattehi Inn was excellent. Everyone was extremely friendly and they arranged everything I needed. The excursions were a wonderful experience, and you should definitely try as many as possible.

We stayed at this small guesthouse from November 19, 2025, to November 29, 2025. It is a very cozy guesthouse with rooms in a European style. Everything was tidy and clean, towels were changed daily, and at the reception, there was a kettle, tea, coffee, Nescafé, sugar, and milk available. The breakfasts were excellent, traditional Maldivian style. The owner of the hotel is amazing—very friendly, kind, and accommodating—he fulfilled everything we wanted or needed. We even went on trips with him, which were fantastic experiences. We recommend it wholeheartedly. Next year we will definitely return! 🥰 Just like in the photos, it is exactly like that in reality!!!

Room was cleaned on everyday basis. Free bicycles, masks and fins. Owner was responsive for all of our requests.

Fantastic hotel, recommend it 100% to everyone. The moment I booked, Shiyam (the owner of the hotel) whatsapped me and helped me coordinate the speedboats (60 USD each way, less than 2h) + sent me a catalogue with all the activities (whale shark encounter, manta ray, etc) and the whole trip prepation was very smooth and easy. Once I arrived to the island they picked me up from the port and transferred to the hotel and was received by Anoof - a great guy - who gave me a coconut as a welcome drink. The property is small, 7-8 rooms aprox and very well taken care off. It was inaugurated in November 2024 and everything is very new and clean. The room was very spacious, AC was working perfectly, super clean and comfortable bed and a very modern bathroom and shower. Wifi was working perfectly from both the room and the restaurant. The hotel is a at a walking distance from the beaches and the "main street" of the island which has some souvenir stores and tiny supermarket. The hotel offers bikes for free and you can rent mopeds. Hotel provides towels you can take to the beach of for excursions. The whole island is 3km long and you can easily walk from the hotel to the very end of the island in about 45min-1h. This walk has the most beautiful beach you will ever see. One of the best islands I've ever been to. Breakfast is included with the room and offers both a local option and international. Quality is really good. Take into account everything in Maldives, specially in tiny islands, is imported so finding basic things such as eggs or fresh vegetables is neither easy nor cheap, however this hotel offers good products. The food from the restaurant is also quite good. The Maldivian curry and the rice with Tuna were delicious. Finally, excursions have very decent prices. Whale shark 90 USD (compared to the 500 USD that resorts charge, and it is the same sea and animals), Manta Ray (60 USD), etc. If I am ever back in Dhigurah I will certainly stay here

I had an incredible stay at Hudhufas Villa. The accommodation was absolutely perfect. The room was spacious, clean, and had a lovely balcony that overlooked a beautiful garden. You can tell the owner really cares about the details, from the comfortable amenities to the thoughtful touches throughout the villa. It truly made our vacation even better. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, well-maintained, and welcoming spot in the Thoddoo!

The rooms are just as beautiful as shown in pictures and also provide a yoga mat and a beach bag. The whole building feels really spacious, bright and open and has its own Bikini beach area right in front, where you can just hang out or go snorkeling or stand up paddling. You get daily updates about weather, tides and activities. Even if the island is really remote and luckily not touristy, you can pretty much do any activity like snorkeling trips, fishing trips, dolphin cruise etc, all carefully prepared and done by the owner Ismail himself. On top of that there were complimentary activities done by Ismail such as house reef snorkeling and short thematic walks, so you could truly get to know the island and Maldivian culture. The island itself is also just super beautiful. With only a small village, half of the island is pretty green jungle and the bikini beach area spans across a wide part of the island. You cannot walk all around the isla nd, which makes it perfect to have nice little isolated beach areas to yourself. Also the house reef of the island is amazing with so many different fish - it’s just a dream for snorkeling. If you are lucky you can even see Manta rays right from the beach or from the SUP. What really makes this place special is the people who go above and beyond so that you can have your perfect holiday - from fresh coconut right from the tree or amazing chai tea, to organizing trips that are not regularly offered. If you have any questions or need anything, you can always reach out to the wonderful team and everybody will be warm and welcoming. Thank you so much, Ismail and Akoo and the whole team for this amazing holiday - it is really appreciated!

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.

From the start everything was super, communication with people before we traveled, they organised transfer for us, greeted us with nice refreshing drinks and gave us all useful information. We had room on the ground floor that looked at the bikini beach and sea. On the white sandy beach we had beach beds and table and chairs. Now about the sea (well ocean)…crystal clear water and part where you can swim and house reef where you can snorkel and see amazing colourful fish. Staff was amazing (I am terrible with names), but every single member of staff was friendly and polite, from our waiter, Sri Lankan chef, hotel manager…everyone. They organised trips for us. Out of many different trips we chose 3. We had Dolphin Safari where we saw 100’s of dolphins and took amazing photos and videos. Then we had snorkelling trip to see turtles and again we took some great pics and videos. Our guide even took my GoPro and filmed us swimming with turtles. Unforgettable experience! We also had Night Fishing trip, where we caught many fishes, like tuna, barracuda, red snapper etc. Then they prepared most amazing beach dinner with our catch. In the restaurant you have a choice between continental breakfast and local one (many times we had both of them). Also you can eat pancakes with various toppings and there was always cold juice and water. For dinner you have different choices, like various soups to start with, then various curries, rice and noodle dishes, fish, various ways of chicken, pizzas, burgers…and desert at the end. We were very happy with food. I can highly recommend Belmars Beach and will definitely come back at some point, as we had a brilliant time there.

Thanks to Mippo we had the most wonderful trip to see four mantas together! Accomodation is really nice, comfortable beds, everything was clean. :)

The garden and its caretaker Nirmal. I would like to state that Nirmals treat was the key to our relaxing stay. He anticipated all our needs, I never been talking care of so well before.

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!
