Would be hard to top up this holiday...
We stayed 2 days in a Deluxe Beach Pool Villa and 5 in a Beach Villa. The DBPL is amazing. BV needs renovation but is good value for money for the Maldives.
The house reef is excellent and the water around the island is pristine! We suggest going near the Italian restaurant to snorkel - we got to swim with reef sharks and many other big fish! They also offer a variety of excursions - we went to the Big Game Adventure Snorkelling, Sunset Fishing and Semi Submarine. The first one includes swimming with whale sharks, turtles and manta rays. incredible. The Sunset Fishing was also lots of fun - whatever you catch they also cook for you for free. The Semi Submarine is also an excellent way to explore the depths of the house reef.
And finally, the staff... There are no words to describe how amazing the staff at this place is. There are some people we'd like to name because they helped make our holiday unforgettable.
Starting off with Karthik who is one of the waiters in the coffee shop. This guy went above and beyond for us and helped massively with my partner's proposal, and on many other occasions. He's genuinely an extremely nice guy who would make sure you have everything you need and more :)
Continuing with the guys from the coffee shop - we have Abigail and Jeremy who are the duet performing over there most nights. These guys are super talented and down to earth. They bring a lot of joy and genuinely just a great vibe to the place. Kudos. We also have Ijas who is another waiter there, always cheerful and polite.
Moving on to Ibrahim who is a chef at the main restaurant - my fiancé is allergic to garlic (weird, yes) and he went out of his way to make sure he had delicious food to eat at every meal.
All the guys from the Watersport centre were great as well!
And finally, our housekeeper Elias who took good care of us during our stay and made sure our room was always clean and tidy.

It's difficult to exaggerate what an absolutely amazing island this is. Our family had never been to the Maldives before and we weren't really sure what to expect, and it was better in every single way. The island is big enough to discover new things every day, even though the resort was full you could still find empty little beaches and quiet places to sit. At 2km long, you could walk the entire length and back through the forest as an afternoon stroll, the trees and plants are breathtaking. The beaches are pure white sand, the waters clear, and you can snorkel with turtles and sharks 10m from the shore.
We booked 2 beach villas for our family and were so happy with our choice - even though the water villas (on stilts over the sea) are the famous pictures you see from the Maldives, we actually loved being surrounded by trees and greenery and the best beach on the island for sunbathing and swimming was 50m away. The villas were spacious, well-equipped and really comfortable. The outdoor shower was a nice touch, showering under lush forest and watching the fruit bats flying overhead was surreal! Also a veranda at the front with sunbeds was nice, so you didn't have to be at the beach if you didn't want to.
As a family with 2 teenagers, there was always plenty to do and the island is of course safe enough that we could each do our own thing when we wanted and meet up afterwards! We used the dive centre (Rasdhoo Divers - amazing dive sites and VERY friendly and helpful staff, well organised and great equipment), did excursions, visited most of the bars and pool areas, enjoyed the DJ at the beach bar in the evening, used the gym, and there are watersports and tennis etc too.
The a la carte restaurants are apparently exceptional, but we were really happy with our buffet restaurant, Haruge. There was always a huge variety of dishes at all 3 meals, all of a very high quality.

Our stay at Embudu Village Resort was absolutely perfect! Everything was exactly as arranged before: they picked us up in Malé on time and transferred us smoothly by boat. We stayed for 7 days with full board, which was more than enough — delicious food with many options, much better than expected!
We were a bit worried we might get bored, but the island offers plenty of affordable activities like snorkeling (the marine life is incredible!), night fishing (and they cook your catch the next day), and more.
The island, rooms, and all areas were spotlessly clean at all times. The staff were extremely helpful and kind. Every day, we received 1 liter of water per person in the room; we also brought some extra water, so we didn’t need to buy more, as full board covers drinks only at breakfast (tea/coffee).
The only small downside was the Wi-Fi coverage, which was quite poor — but honestly, it didn’t disturb us at all, as we spent most of our time enjoying the island and only checked our phones briefly at night.
It was truly an amazing, relaxing experience — highly recommended!

Pristine beaches and crystal clear water. Beautiful sunsets.
Friendly and helpful staff. Direct communication with the assigned agent via WhatsApp. Very convenient.
Amazing food. Six different restaurants to choose from. Fushi restaurant offers a buffet with different selection every day. I highly recommend to book half board. You will save a lot.
Plenty of available water activities. Scuba diving, fishing, snorkeling, dolphin tours, etc.
Nice kids club with lots of activities. Outside playground and water castle. Cooking classes. Rockclimbing wall. Karaoke. Game room.
You have bicycles assigned to your room. We were riding the bicycles every day around the island. You just can't can't get enough of the nature.
The whole island just feels so quiet. Most of the time we hardly saw any people during the day. It almost felt like we rented the whole island.

Absolutely visit th main Island, there lots to visit and experience. Food and people were fantastic. Beaches and activities are also great. There many different boat trips and Island flights, although expensive worth exploring.

Maafushi is, overall, a great place – the people are friendly and welcoming. The weak point is definitely the services. When it comes to hotels, don’t expect luxury. In my opinion, for what you actually get, it’s overpriced.
One big plus is that Maafushi gives you more freedom. You’re not tied to a resort – you can move around, explore, go jogging if you want, and enjoy the island on your own terms. You can book trips easily, there’s stuff to do, and it doesn’t feel restrictive.

Hulhumale despite being busy like the rest of Male has an airy feel to it with lots of greenery - almost colonial. The East side is quiet for traffic although it's close to the seaplane flight paths - I didn't find that intrusive. The West side has the harbour with the ferry terminal and where the liveaboards anchor between trips. When I was there there had been a lot of recent building work so I would avoid staying there.
Lots of options for buying fresh fruit and vegentables if you need and a range of places to eat at different price ranges.

I loved the proximity to Male for ease of arrival and departure. I also loved looking at the city lights from afar, whilst being separated by stunningly turquoise waters and the gentle sounds of lapping waves. The marine life in the lagoon was plentiful and beautiful, and I had many marine visitors near my villa at all hours of the day. The snorkelling with sharks-excursion was probably the single best experience, but the resort itself was the star of the whole experience. The quality of the villa (amazing bed, wonderful toiletries from L'Occitane, the view, the constant refill of free fresh water and Nespresso coffee) and the rest of the resort (amazing food, world-class spa) was the stuff of holiday dreams!

We LOVED Dhiffushi!
We LOVED Dhiffushi! A real taste of a local island, the thing that struck us was how quiet and peaceful it was. We wandered everywhere on foot and loved that the roads are all sand. We were there in monsoon season and experienced some storms but they were short and everyone just gets on with stuff. There was some rubbish washed up on the non-hotel beach areas but most hotels keep their areas spotless. Both bikini beaches were absolutely stunning. Would definitely recommend Dhiffushi as a real gem of a local island. As an added bonus, we could not believe how cheap everything was too!

The most beautiful sea I have ever seen in my entire life.
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.

We are a same-sex couple that travelled there for our honeymoon .This marvelous property sits on a beautiful island surrounded by an amazing reef. I saw sharks rays and turtles a few meters into the see from our cabin.. The food is great and their all inclusive premium includes activities and a session at the spa (or diving if you are certified). I would go back in heartbeat. The staff is sooo nice they definitely made our stay unforgettable, thanks to Shihus that made sure we were up to day during our stay and tended to our needs, Rai an Swarna and all the staff at booli bar and to Shirsti and Aahil and all the staff at the Raabondhi restaurant
