The kitchen features a toaster, a fridge and a minibar and there is a private bathroom with a hair dryer and free toiletries. The guest house offers bed linen, towels and housekeeping service.

For guests with children, the guest house provides a children's playground. If you would like to discover the area, cycling and walking tours are possible in the surroundings and Infinity Beach Dhigurah can arrange a bicycle rental service. We have moved to another hotel on Dhigurah and I am currently wishing I had booked to stay at infinity beach for the entire length of out stay. Muhammad and his team have created a quiet peaceful oasis. The rooms are high spec with good quality teas and a nespresso machine. They have though of all your needs shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the sparkling clean wet room. The shower pressure is fantastic. The beds was huge and comfortable. Breakfast is filling and comes with a large serving of fresh fruit as well a tea or coffee and juice. They were also very accommodating to swap bits of the breakfast around fir my son. We loved the family feel of our stay and felt very well taken care of. They whole team share local information making sure you have all the knowledge you need to get the best out of your stay. The rooms are cleaned daily but they only change towels and bedding if asked. Which we love as this is much better for the planet. Amazingly we managed to not have a sandy bed so really the sheets don't need changing each day! the other environmently friendly thing we loved is they have glass bottles of water in the rooms which can we swapped for new full ones when you run out. We hired bikes to get us to the tip of the island, this is a lovely flat easy bike ride. The sandbank is simply stunning. We also diving with Issy at Island divers and enjoyed the experience getting to see lots of cool stuff.

Accessible via private entrance, all units have air conditioning, soundproofing, desk and a private bathroom with a bidet. Additional in-room amenities include fruits. At the guest house, units include bed linen and towels. We had one of our best holidays at MAMELLO beach club. Majeed and Samhooz are excellent hosts. They communicated transportation details when we booked the room. They welcomed us at harbor when we arrived at the island, took us to the hotel and offered welcome drinks. The room was clean and modernly decorated. It was cleaned everyday during our stay. The hotel is very close to bikini beach, you can also easily walk to the public beach. There are enough sun beds and umbrellas at the bikini beach. We were able to borrow snorkel equipment from the hotel. Everything was thought for the guests. Hot water was available all the time. Also, we enjoyed 24 hour free coffee and tea. You can choose continental or Maldivian breakfast, both are fulfilling. Dinners are amazing, we had fresh local fish. These are available facilities, which are impressive, but for us, more important was the cozy and friendly atmosphere at the hotel. We met two amazing guests who also felt like home at MAMELLO. We will always remember our holiday with joy, love, and laughter. Some info about the island: the bikini beach was okay, at first I had trouble finding sandy part inside the water but later I was able to find nice parts of the beach. What is special about this island is the coral reef. It is still live and looks like out of this world. For snorkeling, best area is opposite side of bikini beach. Look for best snorkeling sign at google maps. Another thing about the island is that it is close to an abandoned resort, which you can visit at a fair price. Snorkeling at this resort island is also fun. I hope you enjoy your time at Feridhoo.

All units come with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a fridge, a kettle, a bidet, a hair dryer and a desk. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and free toiletries, units at the guest house also have free WiFi, while some rooms also offer a patio. At the guest house, the units have bed linen and towels. This is run like a mini resort, maybe 12 rooms; comfortable and well looked after, very nice beds and bedding, nicely landscaped, attentive staff, excellent location, probably the best all around stay that I found in my 5 island "tour" for the purpose of snorkeling and relaxing. The hotel has a very nice beach area with a few lounges and the "bikini beach" is a very short walk down the beach road, it is in a beautiful area with excellent swimming and some snorkeling (you have to look for it out from the hotel dining/lounging area, beyond where the boat is anchored and around the white buoy. Ask the owner/manager) . There are bicycles to rent

Guests can enjoy a meal on an outdoor dining area while overlooking the garden views. The guest house offers bed linen, towels and ironing service.

The breakfast offers continental, Asian or halal options. At the guest house, the family-friendly restaurant is open for dinner, lunch and brunch and specialises in Indian cuisine. The staff is always eager and available to help, they are all very kind and definitely a highlight of the stay. The villa is small and beautiful and makes you feel like you're at home (only way prettier and with much more sun). Having your meals in the dining room which is like a terrace (covered but opened) and which has ceiling fans is very enjoyable. The villa is next to a football pitch where locals played at times and I loved the contrast on how quiet VS lively the place could be. (FYI: nothing to do with the villa itself but the island seems to be expending so the calm and quiet of the place that it is know to be might change a bit, also because of new buildings being constructed at the moment you might hear building work at times.) I really liked that I could experience the local cuisine which I found very tasty. We took all inclusive and did not regret it, there were always 2 choices available for breakfast/lunch/dinner and the meals were quite diversified except for the breakfast which was the same. The Chef also did cater for all of our demands: I asked for fruits in the morning instead of toast/bread, he adjusted the spice level when chili was in a dish, and had rice/fries/salad as an option as I am gluten free which made it easier for me. I also saw another kind of breakfast when a family with kids arrived which means they do go out of their way to make everyone happy, don't hesitate to ask. You can go on snorkeling adventures with the Manager of the villa which made it so convenient to organise. We loved every one of these outings and he even shared his beautiful footages of the snorkeling with us which was kind of him and a nice memory to have. Ps: You can ask for more hangers to reception if you need, maybe a chair would be nice in the room to use as a "clothes chair" so it doesn't get too messy.
