The house is new, clean and beautiful. And there is a place where you can relax and enjoy the seaview nearby. The time I spent here is comfortable and chill. Since the duration I stay is low season, the guest house offering me free tour guide for the whole island and free snorkeling plus GoPro video and photo. The boss and the staff here are really, really nice and kind.

EVERYTHING. The stuff is extremely polite and friendly, helped us a lot with every question. We enjoyed the stay. The rooms are simple but very very clean. The ISLAND IS GORGEOUS. We were choosing it among all and it is one of the rarest that has all plusses together: long sand bank, beautiful snorkeling, diving with the whale sharks (we saw them) and with mantas (we were lack of time to do both). The island has some constructions, but it doesn't bother much). To reach the island was easy coz everything was very organized. So, we are very happy with our choice. Went after this to the Resort (Centara Ras Fushi), was also good. The best is to combine local island and resort to fulfill the whole trip with great and various emotions. For Dhigura island I would make 3 days (we had only 2) and for resort 3 would be also enough.

    We have absolutely loved everything at Constance Moofushi! It was our first time in the Maldives and after a long research, we chose Constance Moofushi for our honeymoon. The island is small, but beautiful. The house reef is just a short swim away and is full of colourful marine life. We even saw baby sharks and eagle rays during our walks to / from our room! The food was great, we loved both the Manta restaurant and Alizee - Manta is the buffet and has a different theme each dinner, while Alizee is more upscale dining, but we really enjoyed both types of food. At Manta there was always a huge selection of different food to choose from, so we always left dinner very happy! My advice is to do some of the activities offered by the diving centre - the guys at the diving centre were so friendly and truly great. We enjoyed the snorkeling extravaganza tour, dolphin adventure and the nurse sharks trip the most. We also booked one dive, after which we decided to do the PADI open water license! Our instructor Gaia was great and very patient. If you're on a honeymoon, or even if you're just traveling as a couple, there are many couple activities you can book. We did Cinefushi, the moonlight dinner and the sunset sailing Dhoni, they were both so nice and added some romantic time to our stay. We also had some couple massages at the spa - Prajin was so nice to us and is a great yoga teacher as well. The masseuses were very good, we enjoyed our massages a lot! The staff was lovely and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay and didn't need anything. Every single staff member was kind and helped us in any way possible. We particularly enjoyed seeing the staff looking relaxed and having time to chat with us sometimes, without having to stressfully run to other customers. Special thanks to Hishan, Sinaz, Luthi and the pastry chef! Kudos to the management for taking care of their employees. St.

    The Real Paradise We will hardly be able to choose the right words to describe the great pleasure of the moments experienced in this exclusive resort. Starting from our arrival at Male airport - everything was so well organized and everyone was so attentive and polite, we were treated as if we were very special guests. Sincere thanks to the entire team of the resort, every single one of them. You were all truly fantastic, exceptional professionals, the best in the world and we are not exaggerating what we are saying, we have traveled the world, but we have never had such a great service before. You all carry extraordinary hearts and souls, none of your smiles were fake, each of you never failed to smile and greet us at least once if not several times a day. You guys are amazing, thank you for caring and being who you are. Regarding the resort and the nature around it, what can we say, paradise also exists on earth. Special greetings to our friend Jayadeva who took such good care of the cleanliness of our vila pool, to Shakir who every morning and evening took care of our comfort during breakfast and dinner, and the kind and ever smiling lady who was greeting us at the entrance of the restaurant (sorry we do not know her name). Thank you to the restaurant manager Mohamed Rasheed and the receptionist Imma who were exceptional professionals. Also great thank you to the front desk manager who gave us one of the best villas and arranged the nice set up for our Anniversary and never stopped asking us, if he can do anything else to make our stay even more pleasant and memorable, amazing professional. The cleanliness in our phenomenal villa 83 was impeccable, thank you to the person who was responsible for this. You really made us feel at home. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts and look forward to meeting you again soon. Greetings and hugs from us!

    We had a wonderful stay at Centara! Traveling as a family with a young child and a senior (my mom), each of us found something to enjoy and relax with at the resort. One of the highlights was the resort’s very own house reef—stunning views, vibrant marine life, including fish, turtles, and even sharks! What truly made our experience special was the exceptional team at the Reef Restaurant. A heartfelt thank you to: • Jasim • Kal • Habib • Vivek • Joe (from diving center) • Salmaan (front desk) • Chingiz Another point and IMPORTANT, the housekeeping team. They cleaned the room twice in a day, which made us feel always fresh. Diving center guys, helpful and just amazing. Especially the special one is Mei (bird) Each of them was incredibly friendly, respectful, and committed to delivering top-notch service. Their warmth and professionalism truly elevated our stay. Thank you for making our trip so memorable! From Reception team all were friendly too, thanks to Duty manager (forgot her name) were super professional and flexible. Feel sad to leave the resort.

    We chose the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island to celebrate our anniversary, and it turned out to be the most unforgettable trip we’ve ever taken. From the moment we arrived, everything felt magical. The warm welcome, the stunning beauty of the islands, and the seamless service instantly set the tone for a perfect romantic escape. Our overwater villa was luxurious, private, and surrounded by the most breathtaking turquoise waters we’ve ever seen. Throughout our stay, the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of and celebrated. We loved the thoughtful sweet surprises in our villa. Dining at Ithaa, the underwater restaurant was once in a lifetime experience—surrounded by sharks and vibrant marine life was absolutely surreal. The ambiance, the service, the cuisine was all unforgettable. It is a perfect place for any celebration. We left feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, and so grateful for the memories.

    Location was excellent with breathtaking views from the whole Island and specially our water villa. Food and staff were wonderful ( A wide variety of food options for Asians and Europeans alike) We were upgraded to a better room immediately upon our arrival entirety of our stay, special shout out to Dwan for taking good care of us. All the chef's and staff at the Southern Star Restaurant special shout out to Chef Samiran and Amith and Chef's at the action station for making us delicious food and making us at home. The activities shall be planned out days in advance as weather can play spoilsport in your planned activities. So make sure to book them on 1st day of arrival so even if it is rescheduled you are able to do them.

    We're happy to get "Repeat guests" status and have never felt so much welcomed as at Vilamendhoo. I've been highlighting professionalism and dedicated approach of the whole Team in my previous review and have nothing to add. Just huge thank you to every single staff member for making another holiday remarkable for us - this place remains an amazing combination of an admirable nature with a caring service provided. You can just relax and enjoy your moments there (but don't forget your fins and snorkel if you're going into the ocean). We're also very happy to see how house reef regenerates - sooo many new growing corals and fish around and we'll definitely be back next year to check out on the progress :) Highly recommend!

    Staff were good, nice view, i like the activity there, you can request a jet ski and other sea activities but a little expensive, you can go to another local island but its more expensive 40$++ each person and its not worth it tbh because it is quite no activities and only three shops. Spa lady was so good, and also the reception were so helpful.

    An amazing snorkelling beach -no boats or travel required -just thousands of colourful fish and turtles, perfect white sand and palm trees. The concession stand sold delicious, fresh-picked fruit-watermelon, papaya, bananas. We loved the Coccoa beach restaurant and the Black Anchor and the Mango House had fabulous lattes and desserts.

    The most beautiful sea I have ever seen in my entire life. And mind you, I have visited many seas in many countries! For food, I recommend the restaurant at the Dhiguveli hotel and the Teapot restaurant. Getting around the island is very easy; you can reach any place quickly on foot. Don't miss going to the sandbank at one of the ends of the island.

    I didn't like that the island lost most of it's green and I didn't see the wild nature I prefer. There was a lot of construction going on the moment I was there, I felt discomfort because of that. And maybe in 1-2 years it's going to be over I think. But on the other hand there's just amazing diving on the house reef and nearby reefs. There's a lot of nice restaurants and there was no day I felt bored.

    We enjoyed 7 days on the island. The rooms are very clean. The food is AMAZING! Everyone from staff are kind. The resort is sustainable, they try very hard to recycle and repurpose almost everything which is really nice. All inclusive is the smarter choice, trust me😄 The snorkeling is really fun! The whole island stands on coral reef and there is a lot to see! Maybe bring your own equipment, although you can rent. I don’t recommend the visit to the local island, nothing to see there We absolutely recommend

    It was not my first time in Maldives and my experience there was disappointing compared to my previous trips in other resorts. The quality of service is poor and it’s a shame because the resort is lovely and the staff are nice but lack professionalism.

    It is a small enough island to walk around.

    It is a small enough island to walk around. The locals are extremely friendly - always saying hello. There are 3 restaurants all along the west coast. Compass seems most popular. But all are good with same offering of food. There is a fair amount of building going on at the moment as they gear up for more tourists. We used South Ari Dive for our diving trips. They are professional and friendly.

    You need maximum 3 days to complete all trips, any more than that would have to be someone who loves water sports as these are the main activities in this country, anyways. Bring a mosquito or any insect repellent, you will need these after a stroll on the shores or anywhere there are plants. Also have an anti-nausea pill if you are the seasick type. Taxis have a fixed price for each location, check that out. Alcohol in the resorts is expensive but then again that's all you got. Best to pay all meals or include dinner in your package as there are almost no restaurants outside, depending on the island, and if you find one it's either a chips or coffee spots.

    A Wonderful Beach Holiday.

    A Wonderful Beach Holiday. Necessary structure: shops and cafes are available. The ability to pay with a bank card, as well as in cash (USD, MVR). Good exchange rate in all places. I was pleased with both Mathiveri and Mathiveri Finholu: the beaches are clean, the sand does not burn your feet, and there is a comfortable "coolness" in the shade of the trees.

    This resort is a nice isolated intimate island, staff is very kind and welcoming, rooms are nice, clean. tidy and spacious, well equipped and services twice a day. Food is mediocre. Activities and attractions are limited - scuba diving is great, the rest of the excursions and watersports are below average and highly priced for the what you get. Our overall conclusion is "insufficient value for money" I have rated it as 4/5 because we've enjoyed our time, but almost any spot at the Maldives is enjoyable with no much effort required from the resort
