ItalyI had a room with balcony and sea view and highly recommended. You can sleep with the sound of the ocean and watch beautiful sunsets. They clean the room every day and provide fresh towels for the beach. Staff is very kind and supportive. The double bed is big. You have also big wardrobe and fridge which is very useful. They respond on WhatsApp which helps and arrange also the speed boat.
You also have sunbeds you can use for free at the private beach.

THANK YOU-
To our host Shrea, who I just couldn’t speak more highly of, not only for everything she did to make our stay easy, stress free and memorable, always with the nicest of smiles and a beautiful nature, but more importantly for the truly special relationship she built with our son. He absolutely adored her, would run to her if he saw her near by and wouldn’t want to let her go. Would call her name around the resort, and just couldn’t wait to see her. Shrea would also go to the kids club to see him whenever she could, a friendship that was magical to watch!
To all the amazing people at the reception, that were always happy, helpful and were super patient, as our toddler would try to get into the back office to say hello to everyone, all the time. Shout to Cynthia, who was another of our son’s favourite ppl!
To the two beautiful ladies at the Bageecha restaurant that greet you morning, day and night with the most genuine and warmth of smiles, setting you up to have a great day. To the countless waiters and all round stuff at the restaurant, who are constantly going above and beyond, and were a life saver entertaining our toddler at meal times, and even offered to make different food for him.
To the man that looked after our villa’s housekeeping, going above and beyond making sure our villa was clean, comfortable and restocked.
To the Araamu spa staff, who run a beautiful spa with super talented masseuses, we had 2 couples massages and are the best we have had to date. Also shout out to the beautiful lady that seats near reception where you can book the spa treatments, always happy, smiling and genuinely interested in knowing how your stay is going.
To Joyce, the baby sitter that looked after our toddler a few hours every day, that took him on many buggy rides (a highlight of his trip) and to the entire team at the Wavy Navy kid’s club, my son would literally run from our villa to the kids club, so excited to go there.

My recent stay at Adaaran Prestige Resort was nothing short of a paradisiacal experience. From the moment I stepped onto the pristine grounds of this luxurious haven, I knew I was in for a treat. The resort's impeccable service, diverse culinary offerings, and engaging activities left an indelible mark on my memory.
First and foremost, I want to express my sincere gratitude to Manu, a standout member of the resort's staff. Manu's dedication to ensuring guests' satisfaction went above and beyond expectations. His warm and attentive demeanor made me feel truly valued as a guest. He was always ready to assist with a genuine smile, enhancing the overall hospitality of the resort.
The culinary journey at Adaaran Prestige Resort was nothing short of extraordinary. The food options were diverse, catering to a wide range of palates. The Japanese restaurant, in particular, stood out as a culinary gem. The masterfully crafted dishes showcased the artistry of the chefs, delivering an authentic and delightful experience. The blend of flavors, textures, and presentation made each meal a memorable event.
One of the highlights of my stay was the resort's extensive array of activities. Whether you're a water sports enthusiast, a fitness buff, or someone seeking relaxation, Adaaran Prestige has something for everyone. From snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters to yoga sessions at sunrise, the activities were well-curated and added an extra layer of enjoyment to my stay.
The attention to detail in every aspect of the resort, from the elegantly designed accommodations to the lush landscaping, contributed to an atmosphere of pure serenity. Adaaran Prestige Resort is a true testament to luxury and excellence.
In conclusion, my time at Adaaran Prestige Resort was an enchanting escape that exceeded my expectations.

-Room was really clean and spacious. Bed and pillow were pretty comfortable and the shower was so good.
-Thai and Japanese restaurants were spectacular.
-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.

Amazing food - really delicious, wide variety, even pork
Really nice and lovely staff at the restaurant Maakana (also at the beach bar and housekeeping)
Overwater bungalow needs little bit of love but very nice and cozy (recommend to take shoes to the water because of the rocky ocean bottom) but it would need some minor repairs and renovations
Good arrangement of arrival and departure
Overall, except communication problems written in

Everything was exceptional. Our room was prepared every evening for 'wind down', the staff were all very friendly. Meals at the buffet restaurant and ala carte restaurants were beyond expectations. The all-inclusive package was very worth it, although there's only so much we could eat! I love the quietness and exclusivity of the 700+ over-water villas, and we witnessed the most gorgeous sunsets and sunrise at the resort. I'm so glad I chose the Meeru resort for my first-trip to Maldives!

Incredible place. The island is very close to Male (about 20 minutes by boat) - and you find yourself in a paradise full of plants and crystal clear ocean. The villas are located on the water or by the bay, with a private beach. very beautiful private reef with many underwater inhabitants. very tasty food in restaurants. and very nice and professional staff (special thanks to Daria, Sujata and Hasan). I rarely write so many "very" in reviews, but Baros Maldives deserves it.

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 !

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.

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.
