Hotels in the Maldives

Absolutely loved my stay at Rathehi Inn Maldives! The owener Ratta and the manager of the resort Niya were incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home. The whole team went above and beyond to ensure I had an amazing time, which was especially appreciated as a solo traveller. The staff is just amazing, waiters are always smiling, and we're helpful in every segment, from helping me to choose a variety of food to small chats, rooms was disrectly cleaned every morning when I had breakfast, returning back, everything was tidy and cleaned with lovely fragrance, staff were cleaning resort every day, including beach, chefs really delivered delicious food... The location was perfect for adventure-seekers like me, and the trip to the deserted island was a highlight of my stay. The food was delicious, and the attention to detail in every aspect of my stay was impressive. Resort offers a variety of adventures such as snorkelling, night fishing, sand bank trips , and dolphin cruise, which i found so amazing. The prices are really affordable, and I'm definitely considering returning back. The words really don't do justice to describe this amazing island and people who live there. I have been introduced to the president of the island and two lovely nurses who work there, also locals who are really friendly and share their experience of living there with joy and pride and lovely tourist couple when the owener Ratta arranged lovely tea party for guests where we all got introduced to local cousin and customs. Manager Niya is incredible and always available for any queries, and it always reminds everyone to keep smiling. This was just a truly amazing experience, and I miss this place already, beach is beautiful with white sand surrounded but turquoise sea, it offers privacy and peace. If you're looking for a welcoming and adventurous getaway, Rathehi Inn Maldives is definitely worth considering.

The owner and his wife have been so handful and friendly. They took care of us, take us to the beach to see the tourtles when we arrived and to the harbor when we left. She did laundry for us and Invite us to have a delicious Maldivian breakfast! The place is brand new! Everything was very clean and working good! It is also well located! Definitely I'll be back and recommend it!

Very new hotel with new facilities. Lots of spaces, shelves, and hooks in our room to store things. Room was comfortable with good AC and functional balcony. Staff was super friendly and helpful, appreciate their help with all our questions.

It's fantastic place to enjoy your holiday 😀 Thank you 🤗

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.

Beautiful and cozy place with nice garden atmosphere. Good location and very peaceful. Everything is new and modern.Shiyam is great host, he arranged everything we needed.

The Island Very highly recommended for a peaceful and authentic experience on the small island of Dhidhdhoo, South Ari Atoll (pron. DeeDoo). With a population of only 213, there are all facilities one could need including a small hospital, pharmacy, grocery and souvenir shops and even a new playground. The island is also immaculately maintained with all trails through the jungle swept regularly. Hotel This is a small, newly built guesthouse which is in excellent condition and immaculately clean. The rooms have very comfortable beds with ensuite bathrooms and a porch opening directly onto the beach. A charming communal eating area even has a free soft drinks fridge which is a nice touch. The excellent chef, Haroon, prepares breakfast, lunch and dinner (all included in the price) and is most friendly and helpful. Scuba Diving Do not have any concerns about the quality and professionalism of the dive centre even though this is a remote island. The diving school has only been open for a year so all the equipment is almost brand new and of very high quality. The dive instructor, Midhoo, is possibly the best I have ever dived with and has 30 years' experience in running dive centres across the Maldives. He improved my skills considerably over just a couple of days. As this is a small location, I was the only diver and we managed to see grey and whitetip reef sharks, turtles, rays, fabulous corals and and abundance of fish. The drift dives were a particular highlight and I felt completely safe during these trips. I could not have wished for more from the boat Captain Yoosuf and special thanks to the dive assistant, Mohamed for his attention to my safety and good humour. If you want a truely peaceful escape with no crowds, beautiful deserted beaches and a top quality diving experience, this is hard to beat, and for 3 dives per day including all equipment hire, a genuine bargain.

Everything. From the food to the kindness of the people. The room and the environment are so nice!

Like everyone before us has said, Isla Retreat is a gem. It is a wonderful hotel, decorated with great taste, creating a warm atmosphere. It is very, very clean, with rooms and the restaurant offering amazing views. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are always fresh and tasty. What truly makes this place so special and rich is the staff, who make you feel like you're at a friend's house—always there to help, so friendly, and so welcoming. We also fell in love with the two little cats doing stand-up paddle as well as the owner ;-). You can take bicycles to explore the island, which we loved. You can also enjoy stand-up paddles, and there's a wonderful beach right next to the hotel, plus many beautiful beaches (both bikini and non-bikini) around the island. The island itself is a gem—still natural and not crowded, where you can feel the Maldivian culture and experience the way people live. Once again, everyone was so welcoming. And let's not forget all the amazing trips you can take with the Isla Retreat staff: manta snorkeling, rose reef garden snorkeling, sea turtles, dolphins at sunset, little sharks, bioluminescent plankton, sandbanks or simply admiring the stunning night sky full of stars. Shukuriyaa to Akoo, thank you to Ismail and the whole team for making our stay on your beloved island unforgettable.

We will try to put in words our indescribable experience at this ecologic boutique hotel located in Thinadhoo, Vaavu Atoll. If you are planning on going to Ecoboo, the pack experience is 300% worth it! With this pack we were allowed to take part in all the activities without limitations. Apart from the 3 daily included meals (amazing and super delicious cuisine) and the two-way included shuttle, this pack offers you daily activities that are amazing and super well organized. The latter would not be possible without the amazing guidance of Shabeen and Inkey. They taught us how to snorkel, fish the maldivian style and dive with all the safety there is. Apart from this, they are super super careful about the ocean, the reefs and all the amazing animals that inhabit these dreamy blue and transparent waters - it is hard to find people like them nowadays, people that care about "their home". Thinadhoo is a local island and Ecoboo offers you an amazing beach with transparent waters and a very rich house reef full of fishes and new corals. They provide snorkelling material free of charge with the pack, so don't worry! Another very positive aspect is the staff! Without exception they are amazing, very friendly and helpful. Overall, the hotel is cozy and comfortable with all the things you need in this all piece of paradise. Definitely the best holidays we had so far and for sure we will be coming back as soon as possible! Last, but not least a big thank you to Hugo, Serena, Fernando. From the welcome reception, to the organization, and for helping us whenever we needed. All together, this makes Ecoboo a MUST GO, if you plan on going to the Maldives!
