Hotels in the Maldives

The whole stay was absolutely phenomenal. From the moment we arrived, when the owner greeted us with fresh papaya and a coconut welcome drink, to the scooter ride to the beach with turtles, perfect service throughout the week, and excellent food. The owner, his wife, and also Rony took great care of us, arranging a trip with mantas, sharks, and a visit to the sandbank for us. They were incredibly helpful and fulfilled every request we had. Truly exceptional service, and we are eager to return! The accommodation was new and clean, with a perfectly functioning air conditioning system. There was no problem changing both beach and home towels anytime. We also rented bicycles and rode scooters. The food was delicious and diverse, including fish, meat, vegetables, rice, sweet desserts, fresh fruit, and fresh juice with every meal. Breakfasts were also great, either typical Maldivian or pancakes and toast. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend it! 10/10

I rarely write reviews, but with such outstanding service, I just can't help but give a perfect 10! I want to thank the hotel team for their warm welcome. They have their own speedboat that takes you from the airport to the island. At the start of the island, an electric bus picks you up and brings you directly to the hotel. What follows is a delightful surprise and a seamless check-in to a cozy room with panoramic windows, refreshing air conditioning, and a stunning view. A big thank you to the entire hotel team for: The complimentary island tour. The fact that the most beautiful beach on the island is just steps away from the hotel. The delicious breakfasts and dinners. The daily room cleaning. The nighttime fishing experience. Atif’s assistance with excursions, where he acted as a guide and ensured everything went smoothly. The team also provides plenty of free snorkeling gear, including masks, fins, and vests, which was fantastic. Special thanks for surprising my brother with a birthday cake—it was such a thoughtful and heartwarming gesture. Atif, Ahmed, and the entire team—you’re the best! Thank you for making our stay unforgettable!

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

This hotel is really something special. Shiyam and his team are very friendly and helpful. He takes time for his guests and is not only a very pleasant person but also an excellent host. The entire hotel is designed with attention to detail, from the rooms to the relaxed courtyard. The name “Oasis” is 100% accurate. The rooms are very clean and new. The authentic food is always delicious and there are many different activities on offer, such as snorkeling trips, renting bikes or motorbikes. There's really nothing negative to report. I will come here again when I return to the beautiful island of Dhigurah. Thank you very much Shiyam and see you next time

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.

Everything was amazing starting from the hotel ending with the staff. Especially Janith, he was there for us every single step of the way. He went out of his way to care for us. This is probably the best resort in Fulhadhoo. My wife was pregnant and they went above and beyond to make she had what she needed. At one point I even felt overpampered lol. We had a romantic dinner on the beach and the whole staff came to make that a special event for us. We did the dolphin thing with them too. Saw the dolphins. Everything was impeccably arranged.

We had an amazing stay. The whole team of dive and sleep made everything easy. The room was great, with a lot of space, nice bathroom and also an outside space where we could sit in the night or let our wet clothes dry. The food was delicious, they prepared us breakfast, lunch and dinner every day with fresh ingredients and delicious fish. The dive experience was everything we could hope for and they made it very easy, with great preparation. We saw whalesharks, turtles, mantas, sting rays, white tip sharks, grey reef and many more and everything went smooth! The whole team was very nice and helpful at all times. The island itself is a little paradise. I can 100% recommend it!

We stayed at Ecoboo at the beginning of September for our honeymoon and absolutely loved it. We were greeted and escorted to the hotel as soon as we arrived, then given some refreshing drinks and a tour around the hotel, and gifted personalized glass water bottles. All the facilities at the hotel are gorgeous, you can see how much thought and care was put into creating them. The room was cozy, beautiful, and always kept clean and smelling nice. Having the AC in the room was greatly appreciated since it’s so hot outside. I loved that sunbeds with sunshades were available throughout the whole beach free of charge, separated from each other by bushes, which created a secluded and peaceful space to relax on the beach. The food at the buffet was diverse and very delicious. We would also like to express extra gratitude and praise to all the staff members - cooks, waiters, receptionists, cleaners, tour guides - who were always exceptionally polite, respectful, helpful, positive, and seemed genuinely kind and happy to be there.

It is a very beautiful and aesthetically pleasing hotel, with every corner telling a story. The staff is very friendly and kind. Most importantly, I had an unforgettable birthday celebration with your oceanfront party organization.And with your thoughtful surprise. Thanks 💌 Sincerely,

This is a new guesthouse and I was one of the first guests to book it. Unfortunately I only stayed one night as the other place was fully booked so I had to move. I stayed in 3 different places on this island and this is what i preferred the most. Clean, spacious and had a nice view from the room. The owner met me upon check in and helped me to book the early morning speedboat as I had to catch my flight the next day. They prepared continental breakfast before I left (6AM) which was also helpful. I recommend this place and may return if I visit Thoddoo again.

amazing host and great facility :)
