The existing riff on the island is beautiful and the stuff is polite and gives us a great holiday feeling. The insects are a bit annoying just because even some defenders won’t help, but that’s something we can handle.
All in all it’s a beautiful vacation which is mostly related to the wonderful stuff on the island

Very friendly, fantastic staff and a great house reef. Rooms are a bit tired but bed very comfortable. Food is varied. All inclusive drinks are good. Beach and footpaths are well maintained. A number of guests left belongings on sun beds all day and overnight, which was very frustrating as there are not enough beds. Hopefully management will prevent this practice in future.

No luxury, great reef

If you want luxury you wont find it here. If you want excellent food and drinks, not here either. What you will get is really beautiful reef, wild jungle-like vegetation, nice secluded spots on the beach, friendly staff that tries really hard to make your stay enjoyable..
We really enjoyed the island for its reef.. In the first day of snorkeing we saw two black tip sharks, two turtles and four eagle rays.. and more fish then anywhere. The corals are broken and bleached, but thats all of Maldives unfortunately.. The island has also flying foxes and coconut crabs.. When we were walking to the beach or to the hotel the gardeners gave our kids coconuts right from the palms and opened them up for them.. more than once.. really refreshing! The island is generally clean, but the buildings are run down, paint is peeling of the walls and fences etc.. The room was spacious, but basically equipped, everything we needed, though. The food was average, sometimes good, but the staff is really friendly.. Overall our experience was excellent, great value for money spent.
If you like snorkeling and wild nature i highly recommend it, if you want luxurious water villas like you've seen on instagram photos, this island is not for you..

Very bad experience : would not recommend at all

I had a very bad experience with this resort, I wouldn’t recommend it at all. The staff at the reception was extremely unpleasant, and arrogant. The front desk manager asked us an extra $300 on our arrival, which was never mentioned on the hotel.com website. We had even called the day before to make sure no extra fees would be added to the amount of money I had already paid, since I saw many tourists had already faced the same problem. The reception certified we would not have to add any extra fees. On our arrival, they denied everything. The front desk manager wouldn’t let me and my family enter the resort or access to our room. He made us wait in the reception room for 2 hours, and didn’t want to let us in, unless we paid $300 extra. As we didn’t want to, we had to call a private speed boat to end up on another local island, and find a new hotel. In short, our day was ruined, and along with that our family vacation. My family was extremely upset, and so was I since it was supposed to be a special family trip to the beautiful Maldives.
As we didn’t stay in the resort, I do hope that hotel.com will refund my money.


As we didn’t stay in the resort, i can’t review the cleanliness, comfort and local area hence the neutral mark.

That is a 2.5 star hotel.

That was a bad experience. This hotel is at best 2.5 stars, but Hotels/Expedia market it as 4.5 stars (which is preposterous). We booked for 2 days, but left after 1 night. I feel bad for the staff, they were trying hard and as we learned to expect from other Maldivian hosts, they can always keep their smile. However the property is run down and there is nothing they can do. Another point of contention was the hotel charged us US$200 for arriving there through our own privately hired means. On the way out, we complained and they returned the money. Of course, charging for it in the first place set a bad tone to the visit.

The thing that makes this resort good is the staff who are friendly, efficient and very attentive especially the bar staff and waiters. The grounds are well maintained and the beach is clean and not overcrowded. The very best thing about Biyadhoo is the reef which is fantastic, excellent snorkelling with loads of fish including Sharks, Rays and Turtles

The island is gorgeous. The reef is lovely to snorkel. The rooms could use a remodel. The bathroom had gnats and was very damp, it really needed a fan. But you're not there for the bathroom. And it was sufficiently functional.

Pretty Island but expensive

The Island was very clean and well maintained and the Staff were very pleasant. The Full Board doesn't even include water with your meals. Paying for water when you have a meal plan is silly. The snorkeling was very good but the Robinson tour, which I was told was about snorkeling had very little snorkeling involved. The speedboat was very expensive for a short trip. Nice Island but the guest house houses I stayed at later were a much better value

Great place to visit but the Coral is suffering.

Beautiful Island with great accommodation (although the bed was a bit hard). The-staff were friendly and helpful. The air temperature and the water temperature were just perfect for long snorkeling sessions. There was an abundance of fish-life, turtle, octopus,and Moray but the reef was not in good shape. A large majority of the coral in the Home Reef was structurally there for fish protection but was unfortunately dead.
The Manta snorkel was spectacular and we swam with 3 Manta in very close encounters and we swam with a large pod of Dolphin. We were there in January 2018. The water was magically cean and clear blue.

Need few amenities that would be helpful

The rooms are maintained well but needs few more amenities like a fan, TV for entertainment and particularly wifi.
WiFi if available across the island would be very helpful which is currently available only in reception and restaurant areas and the quality of the connectivity is very bad when everyone access it.
The food could be improved a little bit as the deserts served are not so pleasing as it is repeated between the meals on the same day.

Low key hotel with beautiful house reef

I spent a day on this island last year, so I had an idea what was awaiting me here for my 10-day stay. Originally I've booked this package with Full Board, but then I've upgraded to AI - which probably wasn't a great idea, because the price was hefty and I didn't drink nearly enough of water and alcohol every day to make it worth. But that's down to personal consumer habits, AI might worth it for others.
The room was basic and in need of an upgrade, but it was kept immaculate twice a day and it was big and comfortable enough. I stayed on the west side of the islands, GF, so as I stepped out on my terrace, it was only a few steps to reach the sea, which was perfect.
The food is plentiful but mediocre. I usually managed to find something I liked, but it was very repetitive, and not as tasty as I hoped, but I've never went hungry.
The staff is absolutely lovely. My waiter, Zayaan put flowers on my table randomly, once I've got a nice bird made of palm leaves, and he was attentive and nice. Every staff member was always helpful, friendly, and they were always keen to help. There was a staff party one evening, and guests were invited too, which was fun.
This island is perfect if you want to enjoy the beauty of the reef and just relax, but there is not much to do here.
I've joined a few excursions, the dolphin watching was an absolute blast, and the sunset fishing was fun too, though I didn't catch a thing.
Nice and relaxing holiday.

Cheap and basic resort

Its fine for a cheap and basic resort, the rooms are outdated with old style furniture and bathroom has 1980's style but all clean and bed was comfortable. Beach/sea area is very good and plenty of fish to see right on the beach including baby sharks. You can walk/swim to the coral 200M away with plenty more fish ( we saw adult shark and turtle ). Most of the staff don't smile and some are even rude but the restaurant manager was very good as to providing us with meals with special dietary requirements. Main desk is not very forward in providing general information about the resort. No real view of the sea from the rooms as its obscured by trees and shrubs.
( If you're not too worried about the marine life then the Caribbean is better value for money )

Like snorkling then this is a good low cost option

This is a solid 3 star resort. It's not fancy but it has everything you need at an amazing price for the Maldives. The staff are really helpfull and friendly. There are a lot of food choices, they may not all be your taste but you can definately find something to satisfy your hunger. The stand out of this resort is the house reef, we saw turtles, eagle Rays, moray eels and an amazing array of fish. The bar prices are not as outrageous as some resorts in the Maldives, nor are their tours. I highly recommend their Dolphin and Manta Ray tour. Manta Rays are hard to find but it is worth it to be in the water with the Dolphins. We would definately visit this well priced and friendly resort again.

This is the most idealick, natural getaway I have ever found. I am a diver which increases the feeling of paradise for me but, just laying on top of the with my snorkel I could see a marine fish tank with rays, and turtles included. The water is warm and blue, lined with white sand and palm trees. This is everyone's idea of a desert

beautiful island paradise

Amazing island wit h white sands and tropical plants. The reef was brilliant so full of colourful fish and easy to swim out to and around. Kept me totally entertained for the 10 days I was there. Swam with a turtle, baby reef sharks and multiple different types of fish. Room was always kept clean and was spacious. It did need updating though it had an old interior but that was a minor point. Food was so good. Curry option every day or pasta or fish with different themes. Loads of lovely fruit and cakes. The star was the white sand beach and the snorkelling. It was amazing. Such a beautiful place. Recommend it. Not a place to go if you are after luxury accommodation but the place to go for the sand and sea.

Amazing House Reef

This is an old resort and very dated, room in blocks of 16 on two floors. Dinning room very dark with set tables, buffet style food not much choice or great quality. Food you pay for is slightly better. Mosquitos all over the island, still got bitten after using Deet spray. We picked this island specifically for diving and house reef so if this is not your thing then maybe choose another island. Bar and staff great and no silly rules about taking drinks to the beach they give you cans. Sea life here is amazing with turtles sharks on the house reef and even dolphins. The resort needs a serious update.

Authentic, relaxed Maldivian island

This was my second visit to Biyadhoo and it was just as good this time as last. It is a basic and relaxed island, not an upmarket, exclusive one so if you want luxury, Biyadhoo isn't for you. If you want an authentic, relaxed holiday in the Maldives with white sandy beaches, turquoise water and fantastic sea life, with attentive staff, then you won't go wrong here. I visited alone, leaving my husband at home this year in order to learn to dive. Ialways felt totally safe and my husband was confident of my safety also.

The food is mostly fish and curries; but there is always at least one 'continental dish' to choose from, and is very good quality. The staff are all very friendly and professional.

All the rooms are basic, and the fixtures are functional, not luxurious but they are clean, comfortable, air conditioned and the showers are hot. The room staff clean twice a day to ensure there isn't even a grain of sand on the floor.

The snorkelling is fantastic and the diving is equally wonderful. Learning to dive on this visit, I found the dive staff excellent.

The sunrise rooms are on the East of the island, the sunset rooms on the West (obviously) but the sunset ones are more comfortable as they have more of a breeze.

I am certain to visit again in the future and would be happy to recommend Biyadhoo to friends, family and strangers.

Gorgeous island, wonderful snorkeling, beautiful beach. The hotel was being renovated during our stay so hopefully they will upgrade the bathrooms. Room was perfectly comfortable just very old. The staff were charming and helpful. Take mozzie spray! The food was good to average, plenty of choice. We were on all inclusive plan and loved the snorkeling and sunset fishing that are included. Highly recommend the dolphin trip, watching them spin just in front of the boat at sunset was magical.

Nice island with good reef diving

3 night stay in early july, had good weather.
Very attentive staff, good food with enough variety in the restaurant. Wine was very expensive, if you are a wine lover you may have a problem paying $AU 50+ for a bottle of wine that normally you would not normally consider drinking!
Beer and spirits are more \"reasonably\" priced.
Very good house coral reef, with abundant tropical fish, almost like being in an aquarium. No need to go on an expensive boat trip to another reef to see some fish and coral, just walk in to the water.

Good hotel with superb lagoon and house reef

The hotel surpassed our expectations. It is not a flash 5* resort but a relaxed hotel in lovely surroundings. The guests we met were really friendly and some were frequent visitors due to the lagoon and natural surroundings. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. 8 nights of quiet and swimming and snorkelling in the gorgeous lagoon.
The staff were keen to help and very helpful from the room boy and waiter to the Guest Relations person.
Many guests come for the reef as it is a very good reef. We didn't dive but did snorkel in the lagoon (and with the turtle) and over the reef. There were many fish of as well as rays and turtles.
Our room was kept spotless by our room boy who did a different flower and bed linen arrangement every day!

Great place for water sports and snorkeling.

We snorkeled, canoed, fished and took many photos of the beautiful ocean and island resort. The weather was perfect.

The buffet food is good, but because it is made in quantity, not great. However, I recommend ordering a lobster at least one day because their lobster with vegetables is the best that I have ever eaten. Their chef is great!

The staff is extremely helpful for anything that you need. That includes special requests for diet, help with travel issues, or arranging tours or other water sports.

There is a lot of sand but the room is kept clean and neat each day by a good staff.

The water is very clear and so blue you would think that someone put dye in it. We saw a variety of fish and aquatic life. Even sharks, eels and rays.

I would definitely recommend a stay at this hotel resort.

Best relaxing resort island ever!

We stayed for 4 days with perfect relaxation. 30-45 min. speedboat ride from the airport was kind of rough (due to waves) but it won't betray your expectation. Water was transparent and private small beaches were very cozy. You will find lots of sea creatures. Quiet and nice neighbors mostly from Europe. The hotel facilities were generally old but clean and functioning enough. Each buffet menu was more than average taste, especially soups were some luxury hotel grade. Restaurant waiters may require some chip for their normal services, though. Overall, definitely recommended. Will visit there again in future.

Overall a good choice in the Maldives compared to other overpriced places. Reef was really good
with a lot of fish. Rooms are tired looking but clean and comfortable. If you want 5 star this not your place but
if the beach is more important than the room then I recommend this resort. Only negative I have about the place
is the buffet. Good selection but all the meat or fish dishes were cooked to death. Ended up going vegetarian

Average hotel in a great location

Mediocre resort with a great house reef. Rooms have been spruced up for 2015. Hard to find the hotel booth at the airport...the booth is signed with the corporate parent rather than Biyadhoo. I lost an hour wandering around in the heat looking for it. We had to wait a long time for other flight to arrive with other guests. Then the boat broke down halfway there and bobbed in the ocean swells while three employees fiddled with the outboard. Food is fairly good and well presented but repetitive. If you are on full board, everything you drink including water with meals will be billed to your room. Reef is excellent. Gear rental has a good range of equipment and sizes.

excellent, value for money

Total value for money. I would recommend reading reviews before leaving for biyadhoo, as they were very helpful. Do carry a yoga mat for their reclining chairs. Beach and reef is amazing. I learnt windsurfing and snorkelling there. Got a free intro diving and 15mins spa voucher as well. We didn't opt for all-in, and it was good for us as we are not heavy drinkers. Ground floor rooms are good as you have access to beach. Food was good with a number of options for both veg n nonveg people.we were lucky as their quarterly staff party was held during our stay.got to see good dance performances on bollywood songs, just loved it.

A great value option for the Maldives

I chose the Biyadhoo Hotel because of the relatively low price for a private island in the Madives, and based on other traveller reviews. Indeed this was a great choice. The rooms are a bit dated and tired, but they were clean and serviceable. The island was fantastic, with a great reef house to explore by SCUBA or snorkelling. The restaurant is very nice and the service staff excellent and accommodating. You can upgrade from full-board to all-inclusive for $50 / day pp which may be a good deal if you like to drink, as alcohol, soft drinks and bottled water are not included in the full-board package. The spa is really nice, but a little pricey. The snorkelling excursion package is not a bad deal and a fun time, but the fishing excursion is not worth the time or money. I would totally recommend this hotel for first-timers to the Maldives.

Biyadhoo.. a reason to go back in Maldives..

We reached the hotel in 45 minutes and Hadi Assisted us immediately,a refreshing Coconut Juice was served and a cold towel. Spacious room, though everything is basic you wouldn't ask for a 5 or 6 star Hotel of its Cleanliness! Our first Meal is one of the best! Jobi was our waiter the whole time a very nice person (we gave him recommendation together with Hadi).. the Food was Superb! I salute the Chef.. and the Beaches and surroundings... Paradise! Carlos from the Water Sports are very helpful as well. We also had a massage and it was great! and The excursions - amazing! (Night Fishing and Island Hopping) And How can I forget how Hadi helped us arrange an early transfer from Island to Male so we can have a short trip while waiting for our flight.. and Her brother (Firaq) was our tour guide a very nice man. Overall Maldives is expensive.... and Biyadhoo gave us a very good reputation of Maldives.. Though its expensive.. if you go to Biyadhoo.. you will go home with a smile and with your luggage is a lifetime experience.. If I have a chance again.. I would definitely go back to Biyadhoo! We gave tips to every staff who helped us.. they deserve it!

Servicen var väldigt hög! All personal hjälpte till med ett leende på läpparna! Dykcentret är väldigt bra både på att hålla kurser och själva dykplatserna. Hotellet hade sköna sängar. Skicket på rummen skulle behöva en uppdatering men dom är full god för ett det man betalar. Jag skulle rekommendera att bo här om man vill åka till Maldiverna men inte vill betala en förmögenhet på boendet!

La struttura delle camere sarebbero da rinfrescare specialmente i bagni, ma esaminando il rapporto qualità /prezzo è più che sufficiente.
Barriera corallina degna di rispetto e facile da raggiungere anche per i meno esperti , in certe ore del mattino si raggiunge anche a piedi in 20 cm. di acqua, attenzione , fino a circa 2 mt. prima di dover calpestare il Reef della barriera corallina , quindi lo superi nuotando facendo snorkeling ed entri subito nel BLU in mezzo a numerosi e vari tipi di pesci.
La barca per le tratte Aeroporto/ Resort /Aeroporto sono loro e organizzano molto bene il tempo di permanenza sino a 3 ore prima della partenza del tuo volo quindi lasciandoti sfruttare al massimo la tua vacanza. In merito tengo a precisare che il nostro trasporto di ritorno lo hanno fatto anche solo per noi due in 40 minuti mentre da altre parti ottimizzano le partenze a gruppi a scapito di qualcuno che vede allungarsi i tempi di attesa in aeroporto anche di alcune ore in più del previsto

モルディブでこの料金なら、、と割り切るなら。

GW4泊オールインクルーシブ2名で10万以下という破格の料金に魅せられて予約しました。この料金にしては良かったかなと思います。

今回重視したのは魚。
ドロップオフまで行けば、エンゼルフィッシュの大群や、愛らしいクマノミ、時たま人を喰わないサメにも出逢えて、シュノーケリングでも充分楽しめます。
AIだと、ボートで行くシュノーケリングトリップとサンセットフィシングも無料で1回ずつついていて、シュノーケリングトリップではカメが泳ぐ姿も見れました。周りを遮るものがない洋上での夕日はきれいでしたし、魚も大きいのが釣れました!

部屋は質素ですが、清潔に保たれていて快適でした。

食事はあまり食欲を掻き立てるメニューではなく、昼も夜もカレーで味に変わりがなく、パンが美味しくないので、朝ごはんは特に悲しい感じでした。値段が値段と割り切りましたが、4泊でギリギリかと。。

Coralli molto danneggiati, pochi ancora vivi e colorati. Tanti pesci e di molte specie. Purtroppo c'è molta plastica in mare (bottiglie, buste, oggetti vari), spiaggia ripulita quotidianamente. Ci sono varie isole vicine, anche con guest house e molte barche arrivano la mattina e scaricano turisti sui migliori punti della barriera. Trasferimenti in barca veloce ineccepibili.

Abbiamo soggiornato dal 30-12 al 09-01.
L’atollo e’ molto bello, in quanto ha una vegetazione rigogliosa e tenuta molto bene. Fondamentalmente ha un solo lato accessibile per la spiaggia e la balneazione, quello più protetto dal vento e dalle correnti, ed è molto bello, possiede grandi e comodi spazi ombreggiati, (fondamentale). La barriera corallina è facilmente accessibile, c’e Una discreta quantità di pesci, ma niente a che vedere con quella del mar rosso. Il personale è estremamente disponibile e cortese per qualsiasi evenienza. Le strutture in genere sono accoglienti, non lussuose o moderne, ma in perfetta sintonia con l’isola che si presenta molto naturale, che personalmente preferisco. OsservaIoni negative sono:
- Le camere sono un po’ datate e umide. La ns era al piano terra e dalla parte della spiaggia accessibile, quindi molto comoda come posizione.
- Dalla spiaggia non è comodo servirsi del bar per il beverage.
- La sera i vialetti sono poco illuminati, quasi buio.
- l’animazione è praticamente assente, (cosa che non mi dispiace affatto) ma un minimo di musica, o qualche spettacolino la sera per accompagnare una bevuta al coconut bar non sarebbe affatto male.
Nel complesso comunque la ns. permanenza è stata estremamente positiva.

Bella esperienza.L'hotel si presenta come un 3.5 stelle e in quanto tale merita in pieno il massimo apprezzamento. Cortesia quasi imbarazzante da parte di tutto il personale.Spiaggia e reef molto belli permettono di intervallare lunghi bagni alle ricerca dei pesci più difficili da scovare con rilassanti soste sotto il sole.Siamo stati veramente bene.Ci eravamo un pò preoccupati per alcune recensioni legate alle stanze datate.A noi più che datate sono sembrate vintage.Nel senso che si presentano con mobili in legno massello e pannelli sul soffitto in foglie intrecciate.Non male.Forse le porte e gli elettrodomestici si presenano datati,ma sono tutti perfettamente funzionanti.Considerando che a noi piace la cucina speziata.abbiamo trovato la ristorazione molto gradevole,Nel nostro caso qualità/prezzo assolutamente imbattibili.Quindi che dire...................torneremmo anche domani.

Внимания к гостям не ждите.

Весь отдых проходил приятно, за исключением последней ночи, впечатления от которой полностью перечеркнули предыдущие: в ванной комнате примерно в 17:30 появился очень сильный резкий запах (и это точно не запах от фумигации, которую проводят дважды за день на этом острове, будьте к этому готовы), из-за которого появились головная боль и жжение в горле. Пришлось потратить заключительный вечер на переезды (их было 2, т.к. в следующем номере был очень сильный амбре от канализации). Служба ресепшн полностью устранилась от указания причин запаха. Может нас отравили?
Менеджер по имени Ammadey так сильно обещал прислать отчет о причинах этого резкого химического запаха мне на e-mail, что я до сих пор его жду. Внимания к гостям не ждите.

Неплохо для бюджетного отдыха

Отель по соотношению цена-качество соответствует полностью . Отдыхали с ребенком 2года . До 2х лет дети бесплатно, а с 2до 12 уже доплата имейте ввиду. Нам понравилось питание ,достаточно неплохо (по сравнению с 4* на маафуши так здесь вообще супер) и фрукты свежие и десерты вкусные . Однако, отель старенький и если территория вся в растительности и это не заметно, то в номере ощущается очень сильно. Старая мебель, запах канализации и стены как будто побелка старых времен. Но убирают чисто и по нескольку раз ,цветы кладут, травят москитов. В общем, следят и стараются. На пляже много разных вариантов расплложения, но уединенности особо нет . После обеда отлив и купаться уже с натяжкой можно, по колено очень долго. Вода очень красивая,а дно большей частью в обломках кораллов, не расслабиться. По вечерам живая музыка. Есть экскурсии и также все снорклят постоянно. В общем , место не плохое для бюджетного отдыха.

Esperienza unica

Un posto immerso completamente nella natura, è fantastico sembra di stare su un isola deserta.
Stanze un po' datate e umide, ma alla fine ci si va solo a dormire.
Cibo buono specialmente dolci, personale cordiale e disponibile, Wi Fii velocissimo, non conviene comprare schede, il reef penso sia uno dei più belli della zona, infatti, ci sono continuamente barche di turisti.
Consiglio permanenza più lunga di una settimana in questo periodo dei monsoni, quando piove ci vogliono 2/3 giorni per riportare il tempo accettabile.
Per chi cerca animazione o altro questo non è il posto giusto, qui è continuo relax.
Consigliatissimo.
