We loved every moment in Athuruga! it was an amazing stay! The property is beautiful with white sand, the best lagoon and a very beautiful house reef with easy access from the beach. The food was amazing with 2 restaurants to choose from (buffet and a la carte). This was our 6th time in the Maldives and our favorite. What make it so special were the people that worked in the resort. They were all genuinely nice and worked very hard to make our stay wonderful. Our special thank you to the administration for the free upgrade to the water villas and to Mr. Nizam for going the extra mile to make us even more comfortable. We would like also to thank: - the water sports personnel for the free guided visits to the house reef which was a magical moment; - the water villa restaurant employees, specially Mr. Mohamed for the great service and the Chef of both restaurants for the very tasty food; - the cleaner of the water villa 6 for always taking great care of the room and always being so nice to us. We plan to return again in the future.

First of all, I highly recommend you read it until the end. An excellent facility on a small and quiet local island full of underwater riches. As soon as you put your feet into the water at the tourist beach, you are surrounded by dozens of different species of fish, but swimming with the fish seen on Youtube is a priceless experience. Mr. Ahmad, the owner of the hotel, is a very polite and helpful person. He is very professional in making all the necessary arrangements for you when you arrive from the capital to the island, in welcoming you at the entrance and when you leave the island. If you want to participate in off-island activities, they will help you as much as they can. You have breakfast as an open buffet at the best restaurant on the island. You should definitely try the product made especially from fresh tuna. Among the 4 hotels I stayed in on 4 different islands during my Maldives trip, this was definitely the newest, cleanest and cheapest. I can guarantee that you will feel at home in this hotel. I would also like to consider that restaurants, off-island activities, and many other things on the island are cheaper than on many tourist islands. Also; Mahibadhoo may not be the best island in the Maldives, but it is a fact that there are better ones in terms of nature and tourism. But if you really want to relax in a quiet environment, this quiet and tiny island located in the natural wonder South Ari Atoll is definitely one of the best local islands you can find. Never mind that the tourist beach is smaller than some, because there are only a few people on the beach at most, so the beach is yours! I definitely recommend splitting your Maldives holiday across more than one island, as I did, and devoting at least some of it to this island and this hotel.

Beautiful hotel at the beach on a calm local island. Staff are incredible nice and there is variety of tours available, so there is no chance to get bored. Snorkeling with mantas, turtles, fishing...you can do anything. SUP rental was available too and it was great to paddle around. Akeyz is very attentive and ready to help. There is a roof top restaurant and they also serve delicious coffee. Thank you for beautiful memories :-)

We very much enjoyed out 4 nights at the Sunny Breeze View on Hangnaameedhoo. The small family run hotel is arranged around a nice sandy courtyard with palm trees and only has 8 rooms I believe which makes it rather cozy, too. Everything is still rather new after being open just over one year. * Large rooms with big shaded windows * Good air conditioning * Modern bathroom with rain shower The breakfast is typical for a local island with a variation of mas huni roshi or toast, eggs, sausages for the less adventurous travelers. If you like you can also have dinner or lunch there which you preorder >2 hours ahead. We did that 3 nights and can recommend the curries and salads. Hassan and his family made us feel very welcome and assisted with everything we needed - in our case mostly with speedboat arrangements, both scheduled and private.

Super nice traditional Maldivian breakfast, very nice and kind staff and local people, handy and available. The guy working there was really a point of reference for us, always available and eager to help and organise tour and activities at a super competitive price! I strongly advise to take tours with the Guest House staff.. Location is perfect. You can reach easily and fast every part of the island, tourist-beach and restaurants are close, many small shops and markets are super close too.

Everything was as advertised. This is a nice bread and breakfast on a nice island, 2 hours with the boat from Male. The beach is like a post card.

It’s truly a budget place, there is everything you need. It’s maintained clean.

The staff were great, they really worked hard to make us feel at home and pampered! The beach dinner set up was fantastic 😍

I was here for a week with my son and we thought this place was just perfect. Super friendly staff. Great room and breakfast. Would like to return

It was a small property but very beautiful and luxurious - I particularly liked the outdoor shower! The staff were absolutely amazing. The location is perfect right next to bikini beach
