Hotels in the Maldives

We had the most incredible experience on a private island in the Maldives. It was like living in our very own Robinson Crusoe story on the smallest island. The private beach felt like a slice of heaven—so peaceful, clean, and incredibly beautiful. It truly was a comforting getaway. The food was delightful, and the chef went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed every meal. The service at Rattehi Inn was exceptional, made even more special by the kind and welcoming people who made us feel right at home. This island is a treasure, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a serene escape.

We were lucky enough to stay at this wonderful hotel during our holiday in Dhigurah, and we can honestly say it was an unforgettable experience. The property is brand new, with a simple yet beautifully designed style, spotlessly clean, and up to full European standards. With only a few rooms, it guarantees peace and privacy — perfect for those seeking relaxation and quiet. But what truly makes this hotel special is the staff: attentive, friendly, always smiling, and ready to help in any situation. One example? We accidentally locked the scooter keys under the seat during a heavy rain… and within minutes, three people of the staff came to help us, without hesitation, in the pouring rain! Such kindness and dedication truly moved us. We felt pampered, welcomed, and cared for with both discretion and professionalism. If we return to Dhigurah — and we truly hope to — we will definitely choose this hotel again! It deserves much more visibility, because it’s a true gem on the island. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our stay so special! 🌺

Everything was great about the hotel! The staff is super friendly and the dive experience was phenomenal!

great facilities, very comfortable what was important for us. very nice pick up and the food was very good!

This hotel was absolutely stunning! The interior design is incredible, with attention to every detail, creating a beautifully stylish and comfortable atmosphere. The staff were all fantastic—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The restaurant upstairs was also amazing, offering delicious food in a lovely setting with great views. The absolute highlight though was two very cuddly cats that chilled in the hotel’s lobby area! Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

The overall set up, the rooms, the cosy restaurant, the exceptional activities, and above all the staff attitude and approach. Fernando, Serena, Dhahu, Shabeen, Inkey, and all other dearest people that put their hearts and souls into serving us and making our stay unforgetable! And the best housekeeper ever!

Great room, very clean, nice terrace and bikini beach and restaurants really close. And we really enjoyed our stay here because of the amazing team and their good work on hospitality. Everyone was super helpful and nice all the time. Snorkeling gear and a orientation snorkeling was included and we booked one of the many excursions they offer which was amazing too. Can absolutely recommend this place if you come to mahibadhoo.

🌴Our stay at Bageechaa Stay was nothing short of spectacular!🏖️ If you’re visiting Dharavandhoo Island, this is the place to stay. From arrival, Shihab, the incredible owner, welcomed us warmly and ensured every detail of our trip was seamless. Whether it was arranging transfers, planning excursions, or adding thoughtful personal touches, his hospitality was outstanding. 🌿A Tranquil Garden Retreat🏡 True to its name, Bageechaa (meaning "Garden") is a beautiful oasis. The central garden creates a calm, relaxing atmosphere, perfect for dining and unwinding. The modern, stylish design gives it an upmarket resort feel at an affordable price. 🚤 Easy Transfers & Convenient Location ✈️ Shihab arranged a speedboat transfer for us and personally picked us up from the harbour. Dharavandhoo also has its own airport, with 25-minute flights from Malé, making travel effortless. We took the speedboat in and flew back—both organised flawlessly by Shihab. 🌊A Paradise for Marine Lovers🐢🦈 The island is near Hanifaru Bay, where majestic manta rays gather seasonally, and close to a whale shark hotspot. Shihab organized amazing excursions—snorkelling, diving and sandbank trips—with trusted local providers. 🍽️Exceptional Dining👨‍🍳 Bageechaa’s in-house restaurant serves delicious, well-presented meals thanks to their talented chef Senaka. He skillfully prepares Maldivian and Western dishes, even adapting meals for our 8-year-old daughter—a rare personal touch! 🏡Outstanding Hospitality – A Home Away from Home❤️ The Bageechaa team, including the kind and attentive Suba, made us feel like family. Whether you're solo, a couple, or a family, they ensure a memorable, comfortable stay. 🌟The Best Choice on Dharavandhoo!🌟 With top-quality rooms, great service, and personal attention, Bageechaa Stay is the best accommodation on Dharavandhoo Island.

Very new and clean, good wi fi

This is the 5th time we were in Maldive and among all local hotel that we had been through, Belmar beach gives us the best experienced. Below are the reasons: 1. The hotel room & toilet were clean and very functional - I would give a rating of 9 out of 10. 2. We have a beach front room and was very convenient to the beach with beautiful view and lots of privacy, the beach was clean and not even dry leaves, (everymorning there will be cleaner cleaning up all the dry leaves) - 9 out of 10. 3. The in house reef was also another plus point, without the need to travel any place further and we get to enjoy our snorkeling - 8 out of 10. 4. Everyday , we enjoyed our lunch and dinner there because the hotel has a very good chef. We are not easy to be please with food but for this chef , we give a thumbs up - 10 out of 10. 5. Activities - we went for lobster hunt and we had 2 lobster plus 1 fish catch for our dinner. we went for sunset fishing trip and we caught 19 fishes in 2 hours. They knows exactly which is the spot to catch the fish, so Sunset fishing is a must go activities, likewise for Lobster hunting. and we have 4 fishes for our beach front dinner , which was a surprise arrangement by the hotel staff - 9 out of 10. 6. The island is very well located , as most activities are not too far away from the island and that make it convenient without having to take hours just to reach the activity location - 9 out of 10.
