Hotels With Pools in Vaavu Atoll, Maldives

We had an unforgettable experience at the Madi Grand Hotel in Fulidhoo, Maldives, from March 12 to 17. Although our original plan was from March 11 to 17, a flight change led to an adjustment. However, the team handled the situation professionally and made us feel at ease from the start. We had a few questions before our trip, and the team responded kindly and promptly. Special thanks to Shariq and his colleagues, who gave us a warm welcome, showed us around, and provided great advice on what to do on the island. We traveled as a group of three and booked two amazing excursions the next day: a combo trip to the nurse sharks, Turtle Bay, shipwreck, and sandbank. Everything was perfectly organized, and we felt safe throughout the trip. Shariq and the boat captain created a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. If you’re nervous about snorkeling, Shariq is the perfect guide to help you feel at ease and enjoy the experience. He also took stunning photos of us, creating lifelong memories. We also did night fishing, which was a lot of fun. The team made sure that everyone had a chance to catch a fish—many of us caught more than one! Afterwards, we enjoyed a delicious BBQ prepared by the hotel, which was the perfect way to end the evening. Another highlight was the house reef tour, where we saw beautiful fish and even a turtle. The reef is recovering well, and the vibrant marine life was incredible. We also captured some stunning photos during this experience. A very special moment was celebrating my birthday during our stay. The team came up with a lovely surprise that made my day even more memorable. The chocolate brownie was absolutely delicious – thank you again for this wonderful gesture! But our absolute highlight was the dolphin snorkeling trip! Swimming with dolphins was magical, and since we went early, we were almost alone with them. It was an experience we’ll never forget. The hotel is centrally located on the island, which is very compact and easy to explore. You can easily reach everything on foot, as Fulidhoo has no cars. The Bikini Beach is also nearby, and the hotel provides sun loungers and umbrellas upon request. They even provided mosquito spray, which was a thoughtful touch. The room was clean and comfortable, and breakfast was delicious. The view from the rooftop terrace was simply breathtaking. Shariq and the entire team are wonderful hosts, doing their work with passion and care. Every wish we had was fulfilled, and every excursion was worth it. We truly appreciated their hospitality and have taken them into our hearts. We wholeheartedly recommend the Madi Grand Hotel! If you’re looking for an unforgettable experience on Fulidhoo, this is the place to be.

Our stay in Nooe has been amazing overall. Our over water villa is nothing short of spectacular. We loved how spacious, gorgeous, and clean it was. The facilities at Nooe seemed to be all brand new and they were very generous to share it with their guests. We loved how welcomed we were at Nooe. To name a few of the amazing staff that made our stay even more special than the destination already was; Muzu took us for a tour of the entire private island just right before we were about to check out and he really made sure that no stone was left unturned and showed us a great time. The dinig staff were all amazing as well, in particular, Charrie was very helpful, knowledgable, had an amazing personality and was very kind and warm towards us. Thank you to these amazing people at Nooe and thank you for making this a great vacation that's one for the books! We will for sure go back to the Maldives to experience its magic all over again.

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
