Hotels in Vaavu Atoll

The resort is really great. But disappointed thing is that drinks and all snacks you have to buy separate, also sea activities is higher priced.

Resort was good but the manager as well hotel reception staff was very rude as well unprofessional. We checked inn 6:00pm and had tree nights in the resort .on day of my checked out they said you have to checkout early and we had only one departure of boat at 8:00am so we booked full boards and did not eat our lunch and they did not give us any refund. We paid lots of money and got nothing in terms...

Great place to rest and relax. Well maintained Sunset villa with private beach

What a perfect slice of paradise! We spent 4 nights in the overwater villas and left feeling very happy and relaxed. Our pick up at the airport was not very smooth though and we were told our pick up would be waiting for us as we left the airport only to find no one there. We were left waiting 30 minutes with no idea if they were coming or what was going to happen and had to call multiple times which...

Room: Very spacious. The master bathroom has a separate shower and a bathtub, which is very comfortable. The bed on the second floor faces the sea directly, offering an open view. The sofa bed on the first floor is also of good quality, perfect for kids. We didn't use the pool much, preferring to go directly into the sea to play. Island environment: Simple and beautiful, with lots of pretty fish....

We booked a speedboat to the island. You'll need to go to the counter and ask other people, or call the hotel directly. They'll tell you who to meet and where, so you can get on the boat smoothly. The hotel is fantastic, a relatively new five-star property. We stayed in a water villa, and while the private pool was a bit small, everything else was excellent. You can see lots of little fish, and even...

My experience at Cocogiri Resort was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome with their warm hospitality and attention to detail. The property itself is stunning, with breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere that makes it perfect for a relaxing getaway. The rooms were beautifully maintained, clean, and very comfortable, offering the perfect balance...

We have just returned from another fantastic holiday at Cocogiri Island Resort . We spent two weeks in a water villa and it was the most relaxing break with nothing too much for the wonderful team at Cocogiri. Since our first trip to Cocogiri the variety and quality of the food has continued to impress and the standard of the pastries esp in the morning would rival any Parisian cafe . We enjoyed...

It was our second time in Cocogiri. Experience was great as usual. Eye soothing views and mind refreshing activities,fresh food all you need for a vacation. Top notch service and cordial behavior. Everything just perfect. We had great time in our water villa. Hope to visit again soon.

It was a perfect holiday for us, we spent 2 weeks just snorkelling and eating! The water bungalow was beautiful and the food was top quality, plenty of choice for vegetarians, the curries in particular were absolutely delicious. We are so happy we chose Cocogiri, it was so peaceful. When snorkelling we saw the usual array of colourful fish, reef sharks, a zebra shark, a nurse shark, sting rays, eagle...

My husband and I chose Cocogiri after carefully reviewing several resorts across the Maldivian atolls, being our sixth time in  the Maldives. Finding a resort that checked all our boxes wasn’t easy: a beautiful reef (we love snorkeling!), comfort, cleanliness, small resort, modern rather than dated, or overly luxurious, and good value for money. After spending nine days at Cocogiri, we can confidently...

This was our third holiday on Cocogiri in as many years so you can tell that this island pretty much ticks all of our boxes. We like small, quiet islands with good snorkeling, interesting and tasty food offerings and clean, comfortable villas. Cocogiri delivers on all counts - but perhaps the most impressive feature of the island is the staff. Without fail they are friendly, efficient and pro-active...

Our stay at Plumeria in Vaane Thinadhoo was absolutely fantastic! The accommodations were comfortable and offered a perfect base for our adventures. We were greeted with warm hospitality and stunning views that made our experience even more memorable. One of the highlights of our trip was the chance to explore the beautiful beaches known for their friendly nurse sharks. Swimming alongside these gentle...

Loved it !!! Everybody made my stay amazing and unforgettable. Great hotel. Just the fee at the end surprise but still I so I would book again

It’s a nice hotel, it has some disadvantages but if you realize that you are on a small beautiful island in the middle of the ocean you just forget about these disadvantages. Food was acceptable especially deserts. The only thing I want to mention is that I had a bad experiences with their excursions. We signed up twice for different tours but both times they were cancelled, even though there were...

Amazing stay, we relly enjoyed our time at Plumeria.

Overall good. Well organized and staff were friendly and well trained, but they charged additional fee for paying with credit card and there is no ATM on the island … This was definitely a down point, but other than this it was a pretty good experience. Also, the AC is not working too great either.

Very beautiful place. I will be back soon.

Very well, everything very good I would say perfect, The best restaurant on this lovely island. Outstanding food and very nice and pro crew. I wis to stay there forever.

I recently had the most unforgettable stay at Luau Maldives, and it truly felt like stepping into a dream. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was warm, genuine, and so welcoming. The staff made us feel special every single day — always smiling, attentive, and ready to help with anything we needed. Their kindness really made the experience even more meaningful. Waking up to the sound of the...

Luau Restaurant rooftop in Fulidhoo had absolutely the best food and service! We are very satisfied.

This room type offers a more budget-friendly option, although the sea view is limited. The room size is the same as the upstairs rooms, just with a different view. We booked two rooms in total, one upstairs and one downstairs. The hotel is great. Linda was very nice, and the other staff members were also very enthusiastic. It's clean and hygienic. Definitely the best place to stay around here.

Luau Beach Inn is a very special local place in a natural paradise. Come here if you are looking for an authentic experience with still all comforts you need. The whole staff pays attention to the details in anything they do. They are very professional but also very friendly taking care of their guests as if you were member of their family. A special mention to the delicius dishes of the restaurant...

We loved our stay at Luau Beach Inn. The room and its view were just perfect, the staff were friendly, and they offer all types of activities such as snorkeling, sandbank excursions, watersports and much more. Everything was done in an ethical way, and the hotel is very environmentally aware. The food was amazing, and their new café by the beach was just as good. A relaxed place with great vibes, and...

Our five days at Kinan Retreat were unforgettable. We stayed in a Super Deluxe room, which was an important factor in our choice as these rooms face the ocean directly. The rooms are fine—although they could benefit from some renovation, everything was clean and well maintained. Breakfast and dinner were also good; the selection is not very large, but it is more than sufficient, and we were always...

The beach and lagoon in front of the hotel are the best in Fulidhoo, so if you're coming to Fulidhoo for the lagoon, this is the place to stay. It's right next to the jetty, which makes getting on and off speedboats super convenient. Bikini Beach isn't far either, so you can go swimming. The hotel offers excursions, but we weren't able to book the snorkeling trip. The room was good too, though the...

An Unforgettable Stay at Kinan Retreat, Maldives My recent stay at Kinan Retreat in the Maldives was absolutely wonderful. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with genuine warmth and hospitality that made me feel relaxed and at home. The property is beautiful, and perfectly located to enjoy the natural beauty of the Maldives. The rooms were clean and comfortable, offering stunning views and...

This cute guesthouse is perfectly situated with easy access to beaches and diving. Staff are friendly and create a relaxed atmosphere. I only have 2 drawbacks which is no coffee/ tea station in the room and the other was hot water in the shower felt like it was on a timer which meant after 2 minutes it went Luke warm. For a guest house on a local island it is worth a visit

It's just so-so, everything is just so-so, the boss is very nice and welcoming, but there is a long-haired curly guy who is very cold

I had an amazing stay at Kinan Retreat in August 2025. The staff is extremely nice and welcoming, the rooms are clean and the available underwater activities (sharks and turtles trips etc.) have good prices! I will definitely come back if I have the opportunity. I am not giving 5 stars only because the rooms closer to the stairs are a bit noisy, as you can sometimes hear people talking or walking...

Very good. The breakfast buffet was decent. The balcony overlooks the beach. The room was bigger than I expected. Very satisfied.

Strategic location of the hotel, short distance to the beach, professional staff, family and friendly atmosphere, wide range of trips, excellent cuisine. One of the best holidays, unforgettable experiences, great stay for all ages.

We stayed 8 nights at Thundi, and it was a wonderful experience. The hotel is simple, the rooms are clean, and ours had a beautiful sea view. We had full board, and we certainly couldn't complain about the food; everything was freshly prepared with care. We also took excursions with them, and everything was perfect. The staff deserves a special mention; they were exceptional. They go out of their way...

The boss is very welcoming. It's on the beach and very convenient for going out to sea.

The staff member returned the 600 euros that had been left in the safe to its rightful owner.

Our room was really beaufiful, on the ground floor with direct entry to beach and with outdoor shower. Breakfast was OK, you can always select what you want to eat. Hotel is also very close to bikiny beach and in close distance are plenty of shops and restaurants. Safe is not fixed so it does not make any sense to have it in the room - please fix it. Also it would be very nice to aware the cleaning...

Everything was great — the staff, the service, the food, the water bungalow. We really enjoyed everything. Special thanks to the staff member named Mary — thank you, you are the best. Amazing hotel — highly recommended. I wish the entire hotel team good luck!

We booked Nakai Alimatha, but were allocated to Dhiggiri shortly before the trip. After the initial shock, everything turned out nicely as this is Adults Only resort, which is marvellous. Overall, good resort and value for money. Waiting staff, excursion team and Animation team are superb, special Hello to Patricio, Susi and Kanchan! Cleaning staff might need some extra training, but no major problems...

Beautiful place. Must visit once in a life time to enjoy the pleasure of living in 🏝️. Service and Vehicle organisation are too good. Events and private dining are need to be planned with reception person at the early reach of island. Delay may leads to miss the events.

Early days but first impressions, staff very helpful, service staff also helpful. Suite on the beach beautiful and spacious. Young sharks swimming close to beach, and a myriad of other fish! Food on the other hand not so good so far!

Very Nice experience.. Enjoyed both water villa and beach villa.. View at the water villa is magnificent.. Staffs are very good.. Option of American, Indian, Italian food available.. Great quality food.. Island is so serene and beautiful..Snorkeling is available, however video footage is not available..!!!Get your own toiletries tooth paste and soap as it is not provided, only liquid body wash is provided...

Very nice experience. Enjoyed our stay both in beach villa and water villa last week. The property and the beaches are maintained very well. The noteworthy point is the staff and service personnel. They are so friendly and they serve you great with smiling face always. Food is ok though there is no much options for vegetarians and vegans. Good place for snorkeling, swimming with sharks and spotting...

Some places stay with you long after you’ve checked out—not because of lavish amenities or grand views, but because of how they made you feel. This hotel was one of those rare finds. It wasn’t the biggest or the most luxurious I’ve stayed in, but everything about it felt intentional and warm. The check-in process was seamless, but what really struck me was the genuine kindness from the front desk...

Room was comfortable, breakfest was at the Pearl. I could borrow flippers to snorkel the reef in fornt of the guesthouse. They brought us to the speedboat on the day of departure.

A small piece of heaven... staying in this place is the perfect way to make your Maldives trip memorable... first of all the people running this place are amazing, they don’t just brief you about the island but tell you stories that introduce you to the Maldivian culture, please ask for Mr Ahmed if you visit... food is great... snorkelling is only a few feet away from the guest house... I had the most...

Awesome guesthouse, great location. We were only 100m away from bikini beach. Awesome people-islanders. Good-fast Wifi and good AC. Spent there 3 nightss. We had half board option and it was worth it. Food was great. Ahmed(I hope I spelled it right) and Solley were always there to help. They took us out for snorkeling and swimming with sharks which was cool. They showed us cool spots and stingrays...

Best place to stay at for an island getaway. Friendly and attentive staffs. Lots of activities and excursions to do. Perfect food. Good location. And in one of the most beautiful island in the whole country. White beach and huge crystal clear water blue lagoon around the island. There is a PADI dive center in the island adding up more on excursions list. Islanders are friendly. Would recommend this...

This is amazing guesthouse where you feel like at home. Stuff is incredibly friendly. I am 100% sure you can find here the best food on the island. They also arange many trips and take you to beatiful local places. Dont miss the whale shark trip :-) Place is very clean and Ahmed will help you with everything you need! I highly recommend this place.

Felt like home, away from home. Truly an exceptional service, starting from the management, the whole team, and the chefs. I have no better words to explain how welcoming and amazing everyone was at hosting my family and me. The resort is 90 mins away from the international airport by boat. The atoll is surrounded by calm, clear and very quiet beaches. The food was amazing; the buffet offered a mix...

I’m very happy that we chose to stay here. This vacation was truly special and unlike anything else. The place itself and its architecture are very authentic and perfectly match the atmosphere of the Maldives. Everything feels harmonious and thoughtfully designed. I would especially like to mention Saya at the reception — she was incredibly kind, attentive, and always ready to help us with any questions...

We spent **10 unforgettable days at Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives, and it was absolutely fantastic. From the moment we arrived, the staff stood out for being incredibly kind, attentive, and professional. Even though the island was fully booked during our stay, it never felt crowded—there was always a sense of space, calm, and privacy. The reef near the sunset water villas is beautiful, perfect for...

Our stay at Cinnamon Velifushi was absolutely amazing. The transport was perfectly organized from start to finish — just a small tip: you should be comfortable with boat rides, as the transfer can be a bit adventurous 😉 The hotel itself is stunning and extremely clean. The food and drinks were excellent, with great variety and quality. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always smiling...

Excellent staff & fantastic food.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Stay After a Rough Start – Thanks to Saya & Gayan! We recently stayed at Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives and our experience had two very different parts. The first couple of days were disappointing, and we felt our concerns weren’t being handled properly. However, things completely changed once we started dealing with Saya at the reception. She genuinely cared about our comfort, listened...

Excursion so good, and they cook fish very well, highly recommend fishing tour and shark tour, good price and good experience !!!

This is the best guest house in the whole wide world, if you visit this guesthouse, forget about having a resort life you will definitely feel and become a Maldivian. That is the type of service they provide they make you feel like a Maldivian after you leave this guesthouse. Do not think about visiting here as a guest you will feel like a guest when you arrive here, you will leave so happily that...

Excellent choice. Very nice hosts, cozy accommodation very close to bikini beaches. Snorkeling on the house reef just a few meters from the beach. Near the island sand bank, shipwreck, turtles, dolphins. Authentic local community. Unfortunately only one restaurant on the island, but the sea is worth it.

Love the service, the people and the amazing trips that was arranged for us. Food is excellent and freshly made. Rooms are large, clean and nice. Feels like your home away from home. This is the place to stay when visiting the Maldives.

A very special island with excellent snorkeling and a great place to stay. We spent 8 nights here in Dec ‘22. Rauf is a great host and served us delicious dinners every night. I Strongly recommend this place. Eric (USA) and Ly (Vietnam)

I RECENTLY GOT AN OPPORTUNITY TO TRAVEL TO MALDIVES AND I CHOOSE THIS RESORT FOR MY NEW YEAR , I WENT WITH MY FAMILY TO HAVE A NICE TIME AT REMOTE ISLAND AT MALDIVE, SO THIS IS THE ISLAND WHO FULLFILLED ALL MY EXPECTATIONS, THE BEST PART OF THIS PLACE WAS ITS OWNER MR. RAUF , WHO HAS GIVEN US PERSONAL ATTENTION AND GUIDED OUT SMALL SMALL THINGS FOR US , WE REALLY HAD NICE TIME IN THE COMPANY OF MR...

"Experience luxury at Alimaz Hotel, Maldives! 🌴 Top-notch service, stunning ocean views, and elegant rooms make it a perfect tropical getaway. Book now for unforgettable island bliss!"

I stayed at Hotel Alimas through the Agoda platform, but unfortunately, my review wasn’t published there. The hotel is amazing—spotlessly clean, and the food they serve is absolutely delicious (special thanks to the chef!). Our entire stay was flawless. I especially want to highlight the manager, Ibrahim, who—along with the entire staff—took wonderful care of us. Felidhoo Island is a peaceful place...

OK and that’s it. If you need a place to sleep and have very basic meals and food, this is OK. Would not recommend if you are looking for a hotel and beach stay type of trip. But if you have other activities booked such as excursions, diving or similar it is ok as a base camp.

The Alimas is a small hotel equipped with all comforts. Ours was a beautiful room with a king size bed, large bathroom and fridge. Breakfast and lunch in the dining room, while dinner is served in a very suggestive outdoor space with soft lighting. The hospitality and availability of all the staff are THE ADDED VALUE of this place. Ibrahim always available to the customer. The excursions are wonderful...

We returned from this wonderful holiday in the Maldives to say the least... to the welcome of Rafae and his unsurpassed staff. From the rooms to the meals, attention was paid to the smallest details and we felt at home in a unique place in the world. This Guest House boasts an excellent location and the cleanliness is truly top notch. The guys responded to any of our needs with a smile and their hospitality...

We have spent seven marvellous days with my wife in Alimas Retreat. All the staff were very nice and helpful. Rooms were clean and always tidy with a nice sea view Especially hotel manager Mr. Ibrahim and manager Mr. Fahhar were very friendly hosts. During 7 days we have had a chance to see 6 days sunny and 1 day cloudy. The beach around the Felidhoo was perfect. I had chance to see many sea creatures...

The staff was soooo helpful, from the reception to the chef who told us if we have preference in food he will cook it for us! The room was cleaned every day which was amazing, they provided us with water every time we needed and if we needed extra instant coffee in the room we got it. They also organised a dinner on the beach wirh amazing fish, lights and music and a cultural night wirh dancing. I...

few minutes walk to bikini beach. we booked all meals included. for breakfast you can request for eggs. main stay of noodles and rice and they asked if any wishes.

few minutes walk to bikini beach. we booked all meals included. for breakfast you can request for eggs. main stay of noodles and rice and they asked if any wishes.

Perfect location, right next to bikini beach. The staff is very nice and helpful Easy access to the house reef, beautiful and colorful corals

We were pleased with the hotel. They helped us carry our luggage from the pier to the hotel. We booked a meal plan with breakfast and dinner. The food isn't much, but you won't go hungry. Everything was delicious. We had lunch at a cafe near the beach. The hotel is modest but clean. The staff was friendly and eager to help. They also helped us with transfers to and from the hotel. And most importantly...

We stayed at this hotel for three nights. It's a quiet and cozy place for a family vacation. The staff is incredibly positive and helpful. Upon arrival, a hotel employee met us and helped us carry our suitcases to our room. We were given a welcome drink and cold towels. They showed us around the room and then escorted us to the beach. The room was clean and cleaned daily. We had buffet breakfasts and...

Fantastic please with lovely staff , everything was excellent and exceptional the staff is really friendly and accommodating the place itself is lovely, you can literally walk to a neighbouring island which is one in a life experience. Its 10 out of 10 must see destination!!!

It was my third time here and I was a bit concerned cause I know the ownership has changed, but I found everything perfect as usual. Plus: food really good, daily trip for snorkeling included, very relaxed and intimate, feeling like you are the only one here most of the time. Easy going. Nature is simply amazing. Will come back again for sure. Just hope the Maldivian government will start to have...

A beautiful island hotel consisting of 3 small islands. Only one of the islands is inhabited. Lunch is served on Wednesdays on one of the other two islands. It has a beautiful sea and a lagoon. Be careful not to harm the stingrays while walking in the sea, this is also important for your own health! Please do not harm the corals! Sometimes you can also see harmless sharks. It is also a good spot for...

We spent 5 fantastic days here. We loved the original rustical simple style, tiny villa equiped with all what we needed. Comfortable beds, delicious food and very kind and helpful staff. We explore some activities like water sku, canoe or massages.

Rihiveli Maldives is a Resort where you can spend your holiday relaxing and enjoying nature. All very nice: Siwa cleaned our room every day and was always friendly, polite and very helpful. The guys at Water Sport were all amazing - Big Boss Blue, Fruit, Mohamed (all true friends), Haleem at reception, the Chefs and all the guys who work at the resort. All beautiful and dreamy! Recommended 10+...

The most relaxing place I have ever been. Don't go if you are looking for nightlife but, if you want total relaxation, nice food, fantastic snorkelling, and friendly staff, this is the place to go. Was slightly disappointed to be presented with a bill for the drinks we had before we left...apparently, as we had checked out in advance, the all inclusive was terminated. Felt a bit tight and took the...
