Ari Grand Hotel & Spa

"The team is very cool, they help us with everything! The atmosphere is amazing!"

Aqua Luna Dhangethi

"Absolutely great little hotel. Very modern,, has own private beach steps away from bikini beach. Great air con, great comfy beds. Customer service is exceptional, they will transport you and your luggage too and from tje jetty. They are happy to arrange trips and excursions but we were over nighting so not necessary. Small breakfast buffet incudes. Our room did not have a window but thats our fault for booking the wrong room. Nothing to fault at all"

Endheri Sunset

"ACCOMMODATIONS: We stayed at Endheri Sunset right next to bikini beach & they have their own little beach steps away. Everything was clean, the workers were all so kind. Ali at the front desk helped us with all our bookings: breakfast, dinners, excursions, etc. Ali made sure our stay at Endheri was perfect, attending to all our needs! We even extended our stay for 3 additional nights. FYI- Seaview rooms doesn’t mean a room with a view of the sea. However, you do get a nice garden view. FOR SURE the luxury and family suit have a view of the ocean and the views are incredible! We stayed in the delux sea view for 2 nights and then upgraded to the luxury room for 3 nights which is the best room in the whole place! SCUBA DIVING & EXCURSIONS: We also chose Endheri Sunset for our dives. Emom & Reet really showed us a great time with all 6 dives. They also do all excursions at Endheri (fishing, wakeboarding, etc). These guys were so personable, honest, and you can tell how passionate they are about the sea. We were able to see x2 whale sharks, x3 manta rays, white tip shark, octopus, amazing coral, etc! Highly recommend this new dive team to take you out!"

Banyan Villa Maldives Dhangethi

"Spent a week here with a booking linked to South Ari Dive. Accommodation was good and the staff went above and beyond. If you want an experience other than a resort and want to see the real Maldives, this would be a good choice. Great value and the food was wonderful."

Dhangethi Inn

"Our stay at Dhangethi Inn was charming, delightful, surprising and unforgettable. I dubbed our host, Ahmed Thola, a ‘Fish Whisperer’ and ‘One With the Sea’. The sea is his playground and I swear he communicated with the fish, turtles, manta, whale sharks (and every other sea creature you can think of) to show up just for us every time we went out on his boat. Dhangethi is a Home Island, so you are on a ‘living’ island, not a reclaimed land resort of huts over the water. People attend prayers, children go to school, boats go out to catch fresh fish for families to eat. You can walk the whole island and all its alleys and lanes in a day, but everyday is different. Dhangethi Inn is in the middle of the island, so metaphorically, it is the heart of the island. We so much enjoyed our stay with Thola and his family. To get back to Dhangethi in this lifetime would indeed be lucky."
