Seconde fois au Barefoot Eco Hotel : le cadre est idyllique, le staff incroyable et disponible. Tous les jours de nouvelles activités sont proposées, pas le temps de s’ennuyer ! Mention spéciale à Charlie pour la plongée : extrêmement patient et qui sait comment rassurer, allez-y les yeux fermés

The Barefoot Eco Hotel is an amazing place, not only to relax and escape work life but also to enjoy the beautiful atmosphere as well as nature of the Maldives. Thus, one of my main reasons to come to the hotel was to practise diving. The hotel has its own diving centre and offers different courses but also daily trips to various dive sites, depending on the weather conditions. According to one’s level, the friendly and highly supporting divemaster Luca, Charlie as well as the rest of the crew were taking us guests on breathtaking dives. Even if one doesn’t have any equipment, the centre provides everything for you. The trips have always been well-organised and within a few minutes with the Dhoni (traditional Maldivian boat), one reaches the most beautiful dives sites in the Maldives. Both, Luca and Charlie, were taking care of everything and everyone at all times, explaining the dives in detail and with full of joy. By sharing their experiences and knowledge about diving and the underwater world, I have learned a lot about all kinds of marine life and the sport itself. Under water, I was able to experience excellent reefs with an abundance of marine life. From dolphins, turtles, sharks, rays and clownfishes to lionfishes, morays and huge pufferfishes, I have experienced the beauty of the surrounding dive sites. Each dive has been absolutely amazing and a once-in-a-lifetime experience which I’ll never forget. I wish I would have stayed longer to enjoy more of it. My expectations have been exceeded and I can not wait to be back in the ocean soon. I had so much fun and really appreciate the friendliness and expertise of Charlie and Luca. Thank you so so much for the amazing time and thanks for inspiring me to continue diving! 🫶🏻 If you are looking for something extra special during your stay in the Maldives, I can highly recommend diving at The Barefoot Eco Hotel. This is something you’ll never forget. Give it a go and I promise you, you are not going to be disappointed.

Wunder-voll. Ein ganz besonders schönes und vielseitiges Schnorchelangebot, das von einem guten Tauchangebot ergänzt wird. Nachhaltiger Tourismus ist hier keine Worthülse, sondern wird wirklich erlebt bzw. in die Tat umgesetzt. Auffallend saubere kleine Hotelanlage. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich das Talent und die heilenden Massagen der Masseurin Mo und die Herzlichkeit der Mitarbeitenden im Hotel.

The Hotel exceeded all my expectations! Their dedication to eco-friendly practices are truly impressive. The rooms exuded natural harmony, creating a unique atmosphere of serenity and relaxation. I must highlight their cuisine – made from fresh, natural ingredients, we are focusing on healthy eating and found a lot of options for us. I thoroughly enjoyed every treat and was impressed by the variety of vegetarian and vegan options. In summary, The Barefoot Eco Hotel is a true haven for those who appreciate nature, comfort, and wellness. I highly recommend it to anyone dreaming of a unique and environmentally conscious retreat in the Maldives!

In una isola con un mare e una spiaggia incantevole, la struttura non è da meno. Immersa nel verde con camere moto spaziose, direttamente sul mare, la notte era l'unico rumore che si sentiva..... La zona giorno molto curata, il personale perfetto, molto competente e gentilissimo, la cucina anche quella molto buona e molto varia. Ogni giorno erano a disposizione escursioni molto belle sempre accompagnati da personale meraviglioso. Che dire se cerchi il paradiso è qui!!!!

Nous avons séjourné 12 magnifiques nuits au Barefoot eco hotel. Le lieu est idyllique avec une plage magnifique et un jardin luxuriant offrant un cadre paisible sur cette somptueuse île ou y résident des habitants maldiviens. Les chambres sont spacieuses, propres, et la nourriture y est excellente. La plage n’est pas bondée de monde vous trouverez des transats libres à tout moment de la journée. C’est un lieu calme pour des vacances plus que relaxantes aux Maldives. Les excursions qui vous sont proposées sont au top et non onéreuses pour un endroit situé au Maldives. Le staff est très accueillant ainsi que le personnel, serveurs, cuisiniers, room Keeper, personnel de plage, les membres du diving ainsi que la direction. Mention spécial à Shabaj, Sozib, Halim, qui ont été très serviable durant notre séjour et à chaque moment passé au restaurant. Un grand merci également à Muhusin et Nafiz qui ont été plus que agréable , et très chaleureux envers nous tout au long de notre présence au sein de l’établissement. Encore Merci pour votre accueil. Mention spécial également à Charlie du centre diving qui est français et qui s’est occupé de nous et nous a fait découvrir la faune Marine pour notre tout premier baptême de plongée sous marine. Sans lui cela n’aurait pu être possible, c’est une personne très à l’écoute et très rassurante qui nous a permis de passer le cap, il a su nous mettre à l’aise malgré nos craintes pour notre toute première plongée. Grâce a lui nous avons vécu un mmnt formidable et inoubliable durant notre séjour au Maldives. Merci à lui de nous avoir pris en charge tout au long de notre présence au sein du Barefoot. Merci à tous pour ces moment gravés à jamais dans nos mémoires. Nous reviendrons c’est une certitude. Fouzia et Faical chambre 66.

Abbiamo fatto una settimana di vacanza a febbraio e ripartirei anche subito. Il viaggio è lungo, perchè serve un ulteriore volo interno ma hanno organizzato tutto loro ed ha funzionato bene. Cercate di arrivare a Malé la mattina e ripartire la sera, per sfruttare al meglio i tempi. Il Barefoot non è propriamente un resort perchè è in un'isola abitata, ma ci somiglia perchè ha la sua spiaggia privata ed è completamente recintato. Le camere sono belle, ampie e ben arredate. Abbiamo mangiato bene (e si vede che c'è un italiano che cucina). Ho estremamente apprezzato i dolci vegani, che sono una rarità da trovare. Per la colazione sarebbe necessaria più varietà, soprattutto sono poche le opzioni salate e sarebbe il massimo (per la mia prossima visita) avere anche qualche opzione dolce vegana. Abbiamo molto apprezzato l'acqua gratuita ai pasti e addirittura due bottiglie d'acqua al giorno in camera. Non si vendono alcolici, ma sinceramnete non ne vedo il bisogno in un paradiso come questo. Non abbiamo visto zanzare (solo qualche formica in camera). In generale regna il silenzio. Il relax assoluto è quello che porterete a casa. Abbiamo molto apprezzato il fatto che non ci fosse il wifi in spiagge (per chi vuole basta muoversi di 1 metro verso la camera o le zone comuni), che consente veramente di staccare la spina con un buon libro. La spiaggia ha una meravigliosa sabbia fine e bianca, che quasi riflette. Il mare mostra una varietà di sfumature turchesi molto belle. Il mare era caldo e fare il bagno è stato piacevolissimo. L'acqua tende a diventare subito profonda. Direi che non è particolarmente indicato per i bambini, anche perchè forse si annoierebbero, visto che non c'è animazione. Sono d'accordo con alcune recensioni che sostengono che alle Maldive si può trovare anche un mare più bello e più trasparente, ma non facilmente con questo rapporto qualità-prezzo. Sui lettini si trova sempre posto, quindi non sono necessarie le corse. Davanti alla spiaggia c'è un tratto di barriera (piuttosto rovinata). Direi che se la vostra priorità è lo snorkeling forse non è questo il posto giusto perchè alle Maldive effettivamente c'è di meglio. Comunque noi nel tratto proprio davanti all'hotel abbiamo visto aquile di mare, tanti pesci di barriera e anche un paio di squaletti. L'hotel offre una grande varietà di escursioni a prezzi abbordabili (in media circa 50 dollari a persona). Noi abbiamo fatto quella all'isola deserta che è meravigliosa e quella con le mante. L'escursione con le mante è stata una delle esperienze più emozionanti della mia vita e la consiglio a tutti (tra l'altro pare che in questo tratto di mare si possano incontrare praticamente tutto l'anno). Infine vorrei menzionare che abbiamo molto apprezzato la filosofia ecologica dell'hotel, che riesce a conciliare confort per gli ospiti e rispetto per l'ambiente. In un ambiente fragile come quello delle Maldive quello del Barefoot dovrebbe essere un modello. Una menzione speciale al personale, che

Ehrlich gesagt, schreibe ich selten Bewertungen, aber dieses Hotel verdient es wirklich! Wir hatten das Glück, 14 unvergessliche Tage im Barefoot auf den Malediven zu verbringen, und es war einfach unglaublich! Die Ausflüge hier waren absolut fantastisch! Besonders die Manta-Tour war ein Highlight unseres Aufenthalts. Es war atemberaubend und ein absolutes Muss! Natürlich waren auch die anderen Ausflüge zum Schnorchelnsuper toll, die meisten zwar gegen Bezahlung, aber sie sind es Wert. Affif wie auch Frederike und das ganze Boot-Team sorgen mit ihrer lockeren Art für unvergessliche Momente beim Erkunden der Unterwasserwelt. Ein großes Lob geht auch an die Tauchschule und insbesondere an den Instructor Charly! Er hat wirklich sein Bestes gegeben und einen tollen Refresher-Kurs durchgeführt, bei dem ich mich sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt habe und viel dazugelernt habe. Die Tauchgänge in der Umgebung waren wirklich toll, und man merkt, dass wirklich jeder versucht hat, das Beste für einen herauszuholen. Ein weiterer Grund, warum dieses Hotel einfach top ist: Koch Venka! Egal, ob wir glutenfreie Speisen wollten oder spezielle Wünsche hatten, er hat immer dafür gesorgt, dass wir alles bekamen, was wir brauchten. Jeden Tag gab es reichlich glutenfreie Optionen im Buffet - das war einfach klasse! Und dann gibt es noch Victor - er ist einfach der Beste! Er hat unseren Urlaub wirklich versüßt und hat uns immer wieder mit seiner herzlichen Art überrascht. Egal, was wir brauchten, er war immer zur Stelle und hat uns bei allen Fragen und Anliegen weitergeholfen, stets mit seinem herzlichen Lachen. Ein herzlicher Dank geht auch an alle anderen Mitarbeiter des Hotels! Sie haben sich jeden Tag bemüht und waren immer mit einem Lächeln im Gesicht anzutreffen. Sie haben sich nicht gescheut, sich auf Smalltalk einzulassen, und haben so zu einer absolut angenehmen Stimmung beigetragen. Was dieses Hotel außerdem besonders macht, ist die Tatsache, dass es sich auf einer lokalen Insel befindet. Dadurch bekommt man wirklich einen Einblick in das echte Malediven und die Kultur der Einheimischen. Alle sind so herzlich und freundlich - man fühlt sich sofort wie zu Hause! Am Abend gibt es häufig kurze und auch längere Filme und auch eine Bar mit Snacks und alkoholfreien Getränken. Generell ist aber das Abendprogramm eher ruhiger und der Fokus liegt hier auch eher auf Entspannung und Ruhe. Kurz gesagt, unser Aufenthalt im Barefoot war einfach nur fantastisch, und wir können es kaum erwarten, wiederzukommen. Ich war mit meiner Mutter unterwegs, aber es ist wirklich für alle etwas dabei - egal, ob man alleine, mit dem Partner, mit Freunden oder der Familie verreist. Ich würde dieses Hotel jedem empfehlen, der sich wirklich für die Natur und die Unterwasserwelt der Malediven interessiert und keinen reinen Partyurlaub sucht.

Beautiful and peaceful place where you can have a great rest and activities. Beach is clean and water is heavenly. Awesome boutique with professional tailors. Hospitality of staff here is on very high level. I would like to emphasize the guides from “Barefoot diving centre” whose excursions were unforgettable and full of positive emotions. In case if you are interested in how the locals live in the Maldives, specifically the local islanders, you have the opportunity to walk around the village near the hotel and even chat with the villagers. They are mostly friendly. To summarise, if you’re tired of daily routine at work and want to switch off from all that, and “charge your batteries”, this is the place. I’ll miss it.
