The loveliest stay on an incredible Island

This hotel is incredible. From the golf cart pickup on my arrival right up until they waved me goodbye on my departure boat, the whole team were friendly, welcoming and just a pure joy. The hotel itself is modern and clean with all the required facilities to ensure a comfortable stay. The food at the restaurant is also great! This will surely be my home in Dhigurah from now on, an island which I now plan to visit many many times!

Stayed here for 5 nights, we were welcomed by the manager and other staff on arrival - they helped us with everything from arranging speedboat transfers for arriving and leaving the island to booking excursions. The hotel and rooms were nice and modern and had everything we needed, the buffet breakfast was nice and had different choices each day. The location was perfect, a 5 min walk to a beautiful quiet bikini beach, we also had transport to take us to the sandbank at the bottom of the island. We went on an excursion to snorkel with manta rays, the boat captain and guide were friendly and service was great. The island itself is quite small so everywhere is walkable, there’s a lot of wildlife to see on land and in the sea and everyone is friendly. I would choose to stay here again.

El hotel esta muy bien, todo muy nuevo y limpio. El personal muy amable. Todo muy bien excepto que al pagar el ultimo dia nos cargaron un 3% de comision por pagar con tarjeta, lo que no nos han pedido en ningun otro lugar de Maldivas en estos dias. A tener en cuenta.

Wir waren 5 Nächte in diesem Hotel und können es zu 100% weiterempfehlen. Das Hotel ist sehr sauber und modern eingerichtet. Das gesamte Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Highlight war eine vom Hotel organisierte Exkursion zum Walhai-Schnorcheln. Die Guides haben sehr viel Zeit und Mühe investiert, bis wir tatsächlich einen gefunden hatten, es war ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. Vielen Dank!

Høj service, rent moderne værelse, fantastisk rooftop restaurant
Eneste minus er at morgenmaden er lidt kedelig

De er søde til at hjælpe med al transport og deres excursions er fantastiske

Wunderschöner Aufenthalt…wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt - herzlichen Dank an das ganze Team! Als Fachpersonen wissen wir, wie viel Freude und Leidenschaft zu dieser Arbeit gehört, das ganze Team war immer freundlich, aufmerksam und stets gut gelaunt. Alles war sehr gut organisiert, wir hatten tolle Ausflüge mit einem super Boots-Team, können vor allem das Manta und Schildkröten Schnorcheln empfehlen. Wir würden jederzeit gern wieder unseren Urlaub hier geniessen!
