Hotels With breakfast in Vaavu Atoll, Maldives

The hotel room was clean and tidy, and the staff provided meticulous and attentive service. The hotel's pier transfer arrangements were thoughtful and hassle-free. The food at the all-inclusive restaurant was outstanding, making for a great dining experience. The front desk staff were incredibly enthusiastic, recommending and arranging snorkeling trips to see sharks, turtles, and coral, as well as sunset fishing excursions. The hotel also thoughtfully provided small boats and paddleboards for water activities on the beach next to the restaurant. For sunset fishing, we used handlines, and the crew helped guide us and allowed us to experience the thrill of catching fish, which was an amazing feeling! After coming ashore, they even kindly processed the fish we selected for us to enjoy with dinner 😋. The entire trip with Fulidhoo was relaxed and enjoyable, and my stay at this hotel was particularly delightful!

While centrally located on the island, it's incredibly convenient to reach both beaches. It's just a few minutes' walk from the jetty, and if you arrange it in advance, they'll provide a pick-up service. On the nearby beaches, you can have amazing close encounters with stingrays and nurse sharks. The guesthouse is spotlessly clean, and guests are asked to leave their shoes downstairs. The Wi-Fi signal in the rooms was also excellent. Our booking included full board (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). The food they served was delicious; while the variety wasn't huge, the portions were always generous. The service from front desk staff Shariq and restaurant attendant Susmita was truly exceptional. I wholeheartedly recommend Madi Grand Maldives. For excursions, book directly with Shariq; the small group sizes mean you'll have a much more fulfilling experience.

My 7th stay at Plumeria Maldives… and I still can’t get enough! 💙🇲🇻 This is my 7th time at this hotel, and every time I come here with my friends or my family, I fall in love with it all over again. This time was especially unforgettable. My daughter and I completed our Advanced Open Water Diving Course, exploring not only different dive sites around the atoll, but also spending plenty of time discovering the incredible underwater world right here at our house reef. 🤿💙 And honestly, the house reef at Plumeria is something truly special. You can see almost the same incredible diversity of marine life here as you would at some of the most famous dive sites. Nurse sharks, reef sharks, eagle rays, manta rays, turtles, tuna, huge schools of fish, octopuses — and so much more. Every dive can turn into a completely unexpected adventure. 🌊🐢🦈 Of course, during this trip we also explored other amazing dive sites, where we encountered even more sharks, rays and huge schools of eagle rays. But knowing that such an incredible underwater world is waiting for you right in front of the hotel makes Plumeria truly special. And the excursions… just WOW! Whale sharks, leopard sharks, manta rays, dolphins, sandbank trips, full-day snorkeling, and trips to an uninhabited island with lunch. We even went twice this time! 😍 There is something very special about this place. It’s no longer just a hotel for us. The staff have become people we know, love and look forward to seeing again. ❤️ We’ve already booked our tickets for May — and we couldn’t be happier! At this point, I can officially say that Plumeria Maldives is my second Maldivian home, and its wonderful team is my second Maldivian family. 🏝️💙 See you in May! 🇲🇻 We’re already counting the days… ✈️🌊🐢

We were picked up at the Velana airport after an overnight stay at the local island, with transfer fee of $40 USD per person to take the speedboat to Fulidhoo, where Kinan Retreat is at. After alighting from the jetty at Fulidhoo, it's a short 5 mins walk to the Retreat. Welcome drinks and hot hand towels were offered. We missed the morning excursion trip but decided to go for it the next day. The room provided can have an extra bed for $15 USD. Fulidhoo is a small local island but it's the favorite hangout for stingrays and nurse sharks. You will be able to spot these lovely creatures around the shore, especially near evening time when there are people who start feeding them. You will be able to get up close and even touch them, but with caution. We went on an evening fishing trip that cost $45 USD per person, inclusive of a BBQ dinner for the dishes that were caught. On the next day before leaving for our resort island stay, we took the excursion trip to see dolphins, snorkeling with nurse sharks at SharkPoint and went turtle spotting, all these for $40 USD per person. Underwater videos were captured and shared by WhatsApp. Great service by the counter lady Shahidah. I will recommend this Retreat to visitors, and you will not be disappointed with the time spent on the island.

This is the perfect place for two! My girlfriend and I stayed in a two-story overwater villa with ocean views – it was truly magical. The interior is very spacious and modern, and the bed on the second floor looks directly out onto the endless sea – an incredible feeling. We really loved the reef right by our villa; we snorkeled every day and saw lots of colorful fish, and even sharks and rays. The food at the restaurant was delicious. All the staff were incredibly friendly, and our entire vacation flew by. This is a romantic, cozy, and very beautiful resort that we absolutely recommend to all couples in love!

We moved from the beach villa to our overwater jacuzzi water villa with ease Upon reaching the room, we loved the view where you'll be able to see sunrise on the left side and the sunset on the right of it. Tried out the jacuzzi pool, swam around our overwater villa throughout the afternoon. We brought bread from the meals and fed the fishes that were always around the villa. During low tide, you could even stand in the water under the overwater villa with fishes swimming around you, all the time. Once in a while, you may see a solo nurse shark swim nearby. The pictures taken are so Instagram-able . Really enjoyed our stay at this resort. After meals, will play at the pool table, air hockey, play darts and table futsal. My son also paid a visit to the gym. There is an Ameera Spa just behind the main dining hall.

The island selection was very successful. In addition to the speedboat being a little far away (acceptable for more than an hour), there is also a seaplane option. The service response, accommodation hardware and snorkeling environment are all great. There are no mosquitoes on the island, and the water houses are even more comfortable and great. The sun set water house is closer to the trench and more suitable for snorkeling. The other water houses have more beautiful sea water colors, and the sand houses look very good. There is not much publicity, and even if the occupancy rate is relatively high, it is still very quiet. The island is not too big or too small, and it is not very tiring to walk and the sea water is beautiful. It is not hot for several days. Everything feels great. The breakfast can be changed more every day! I will come again in the future! The atmosphere of the water house is also good at night, not scary at all

We noticed an unpleasant odor in the reception area upon arrival. Additionally, there were items such as fish and boiled spaghetti left at the front desk, which gave an untidy impression. Overall, the reception area and guest house did not appear to meet expected standards of cleanliness and hygiene.

It was an amazing stay. Sotte was really nice and considerate, took us to to turtles and nurse sharks and arranged speedboat for pick up. It was absolutely wonderful experience, hotel room is comfy and spacious, food was nice as well. 10/10

Останавливались в этом отеле на три ночи Это тихое и уютное место для отдыха с семьей. Персонал отеля супер позитивный и отзывчивый. По прибытии нас встретил сотрудник отеля и помог донести наши чемоданы до номера. В отеле нам дали приветственный напиток и холодные полотенца. В номере все показали и рассказали и проводили нас на пляж. В номере было чисто и у нас уборка была каждый день. Завтраки и ужины у нас были в формате шведского стола, но еда очень вкусная. На пляже плавали с маской и трубкой и видели много красивых рыбок, а на берегу крабиков. При выселении помогли организовать трансфер до следующего острова.
