Hotels near Nilandhoo

Simply put, this is a truly magnificent place to stay in Maldives and there’s hardly anything one can compliant about. We visited The Residence in February, and it has been a fabulous experience. The island is conveniently located within a short boat ride from the local airport of Koodoo but at the same time warrants a feeling that you’re in a secluded paradise hideaway. It’s large enough so that you never feel it’s crowded and at the same time small enough to get from one end to another within a few-minutes bike ride (well-maintained bikes are provided complimentary for each villa). Beaches are beautiful with powder like sand, clean (though we’ve occasionally seen some debris) and the whole island enjoys lush greenery with hundreds of palm trees providing much desired shade and the jungle-like experience. The west side of the island seems a bit prettier due to spectacular green-blue shades of water; the east side of the island has seagrass at the bed which although very much needed to protect local ecosystems provides less spectacular water colours. The ability to go to the adjacent island via the wooden bridge connecting them is really nice and you can enjoy the sun at the sand bar located in between. The staff has been extremely nice and helpful, from the moment we’ve been taken over at the Male airport, through the journey to the island, at the reception, restaurants, water sports centre and everywhere else, we’ve always felt well taken care of. The villas are clean, extremely spacious (bathroom area is enormous), well maintained and equipped. Beds are comfortable, there’s plenty of seating area, AC and Wi-Fi work well, mini fridge is restocked every day. Again, the lush greenery separating villas in a very natural way provides privacy and shade, and most importantly the sea view is not obstructed. The private pool is amazing and provide the opportunity to cool off in the heat of the sun, at 1.

All the staffs were very sweet, friendly and supportive. At the end you feel like you are leaving your family. The island is quite big as well so there are some places to explore and never felt it’s boring there. Beaches are well decorated with big pool and enough sun beds, overall experience was amazing.

Our stay at the Kondey Villas was a blast - we had the best family vacation (the first with a 18 months old baby) by far. From the accomodation to the staff (rooms, cleaning, pool, services, food), everything was perfect. Kondey is a hidden paradise where we felt the most welcomed thanks to the kind people we met there - there was nothing we could ask for that the staff wouldn't provide, even though we were a bit far from the type of civilization we are used to. The untouched beauty of the virgin beaches, the fact that we had all of them just for us, the sunsets, the private island excursion, the marriage proposal which was magically set up by the staff - all will be remembered for always. We visited several islands (local and resort ones alike - Koodoo, Thinadhoo, Felidhoo, Velifushi), but Kondey was our favourite. We hope to return one day to the Kondey Villas. We highly recomand this facility.

Everything, last days there me and my wife were thinking about this place and we agreed that this hotel and its stuff - just amazing! We’ve spend the week and had NO negative experience at all. It’s our second time on Maldives, and we travel a lot around the world, and stayed in many hotels (from cheap to most expensive) - but rarely we can give someone 10 out of 10, but this one deserve it. The stuff is very friendly and entertaining, making your stay even better.
