We were looking for a sizeable villa to accommodate the whole family with adult kids on the occasion of a family celebration. That was the best option one could think of. The really spacious villa with three large separate bedrooms, one with two individual beds, a living area, high ceilings (7+ metres), two large bathrooms, high-quality construction and interior materials and equipment, all in perfect working conditions, perfect linens, on water, sizeable individual veranda, and a large individual pool. Just perfect!

We arrived at Nova for a 5 day all inclusive beach villa stay, with the main aim for me and my partner to dive every day!! Accommodation The room was spacious, very clean and well appointed. The outside patio space was tiled, with a shaded double day bed. Where we chilled out after an energetic morning of diving. To the side there was a fresh water foot wash, with a sand pathway leading to a short walk to the beach. The bathroom was open air and immaculate in every detail. 2 showers, one glass walled and the other out in the elements. Dining We tried all the restaurants at the resort and were never disappointed. Soul kitchen turned out quality, as did Flames. We finished off on our last night in Mizo - which was epic. The staff were fantastic, and couldn’t do enough. Diving We dived twice a day. The dive center is very well run, with excellent local knowledge of the surrounding hot spots. The team were professional and gave detailed briefing before each dive. The boat crews deserve a mention as they really looked after you post dive fruit, coffee, water etc. Snorkelling The house reef off the main jetty was teaming with life. Lots of fish to see, rays and even the resident octopus!! Spar We had 3 treatments, a sports massage each and my partner had a hot stone massage later. Excellent treatments, and staff. We’ve been lucky enough to visit quite a few islands in the Maldives and we simultaneously said, we will be back!

Everything was perfect. Adil organized perfect fishing trip for us. Staff were very kind and amazing. Location is perfect, I recommend it!!! Thank you for great stay in Thoddoo.

It is an absolutely fabulous place. Starting from the island itself, the reefs around, and ending with the people working there. From the first time we set foot on the island, we were looked after wonderfully. Starting from the person cleaning our room, through the employees of the bar, reception or water attractions, and ending with the service of the restaurant - the people working there are a real treasure. We were traveling with a small child, which can cause problems, but the staff was helpful to us all the time. The front desk staff guaranteed us to extend our stay on the island until late afternoon due to a late flight from Male, co What is very important, the food is of a high standard, the chefs try to make it varied and tasty, and they do it wonderfully. The reefs around are teeming with fish, snorkeling is free, and the staff in charge of it turns a daily trip into a unique experience. The rooms were clean, cleaned every day, and the water changed on a regular basis. We definitely recommend this place to rest and thank you for a great time! He cannot imagine that I could spend this time better during my stay in the Maldives.

excellent house reef for snorkelling. great staff. mellow environment.

This was one of our best experiences we ever had. We stayed for our honeymoon in the jacuzzi water villa with the sunset view. There are no words to describe how amazing the staff at this resort is. Thank you so much for making this trip so memorable and special for us!! Our host Alena was amazing, sweet and caring. The island is perfectly maintained, it is soo clean! Room service is done 2 times a day and was done extremely professionally. The food was delicious and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. I am allergic to mushrooms, and the stuff was really keen to prepare the same dish without them if I asked. I didn’t even needed to mention it again to the cooks as they remembered about my allergy and made sure I do not pick up some inappropriate dish accidentally in the following days of stay! Furthermore, head chef did quite a good job on creating a wonderful menu for a breakfast, lunch, buffer dinner and Christmas gala dinner! We were seriously impressed by the variety of food and interesting combinations of flavours!! Thank you so much! We have been to other two five-star resorts in Maldives, and honestly it is not even comparable! We met guests on Veligandu island, who had their second or third time stay here. I believe that if people are choosing the same resort again and again this indicates something.❤️ The island is quite small, but we were never bored here. We really enjoyed the house reef, because it is full of life! We saw turtles, different types of rays, ocellaris clownfish and many other types of fish, baby sharks and crabs are everywhere!! 🦀🦈 And finally, the bananas growing on this island are literally out of this world!!so tasty! 🍌 This resort is a true paradise!🏝️

Holiday Cottage is will be an amazing place for your Thoddoo stay. Perfect location, very clean and above all - Ali is a super host!! Highly recommended!

Beautiful well maintained resort. The staff were friendly at every interaction. The buffet was great, and the drinks, cocktail and wine selection was extensive (Must try the Espresso Martini!). The app makes coordinating everything easy, and shows all of the options across the resort which made it very easy to track bookings and decide what to do. There are additional excursions, spa treatments and dinner options that are payable as an extra charge to the all inclusive

Maafushivaru can make you dream come true.

You feel like the most important person in the world from the first step when you arrive to this magical island. Interior decoration of this place is like a dreamland. The bed and linen and general room fittings is super luxurious, the bed is the most comfortable I have ever slept in! Best ever beach with crystal clear water. Every dining was wonderful experience. The staff always greets you with a smile. We will most certainly be visiting again.
