The hotel was exceptionally clean, with housekeeping provided at least twice a day. The staff were incredibly hospitable and made sure we were comfortable and enjoying our stay throughout. They also arranged our airport transfers both upon arrival and departure, which was a great convenience. Bed was comfortable, air conditioner worked well without noise. The location is just a 3-minute walk to Bikini Beach—and the hotel provides sunbeds upon request. I especially enjoyed the restaurant; the Asian dishes were a true culinary discovery, and the European cuisine was equally delicious.

A big thanks to Paul and lovely staff : Dia, Marini, Kris during our stay at Stone Hotel. It was unforgettable experience and we enjoyed a lot. We booked all inclusive for 7 nights includes 3 meals and the food is beyond our expectations, also thanks to Chef Alagiyawanna and the team to surprise the guest with their creativity. The room is super clean with stunning view from 6th floor where we can see stingrays and baby reef shark clearly from the balcony. We booked also the trip with MahiMahi, the guides are so kind and we felt safe with them. The boat is also clean and comfortable. We were so lucky to see dolphins, nurse shark, turtle and beautiful fishes and coral. Definitely we recommend to everyone who visit Dhiffushi Island to stay at Stone Hotel and book the trip at Mahi Mahi. Thanks again for treating us like a king and queen :)

Our stay was incredibly comfortable, and the service exceeded our expectations. Hari, at the reception, was an absolute gem. He went above and beyond to assist us throughout our stay, always kind, humble, and genuinely helpful. The manager was equally outstanding. When we missed our speedboat, he helped us to get another and stayed in touch until we safely arrived at the hotel. The level of care and professionalism from the staff truly made our experience memorable. Highly recommended!

We will try to put in words our indescribable experience at this ecologic boutique hotel located in Thinadhoo, Vaavu Atoll. If you are planning on going to Ecoboo, the pack experience is 300% worth it! With this pack we were allowed to take part in all the activities without limitations. Apart from the 3 daily included meals (amazing and super delicious cuisine) and the two-way included shuttle, this pack offers you daily activities that are amazing and super well organized. The latter would not be possible without the amazing guidance of Shabeen and Inkey. They taught us how to snorkel, fish the maldivian style and dive with all the safety there is. Apart from this, they are super super careful about the ocean, the reefs and all the amazing animals that inhabit these dreamy blue and transparent waters - it is hard to find people like them nowadays, people that care about "their home". Thinadhoo is a local island and Ecoboo offers you an amazing beach with transparent waters and a very rich house reef full of fishes and new corals. They provide snorkelling material free of charge with the pack, so don't worry! Another very positive aspect is the staff! Without exception they are amazing, very friendly and helpful. Overall, the hotel is cozy and comfortable with all the things you need in this all piece of paradise. Definitely the best holidays we had so far and for sure we will be coming back as soon as possible! Last, but not least a big thank you to Hugo, Serena, Fernando. From the welcome reception, to the organization, and for helping us whenever we needed. All together, this makes Ecoboo a MUST GO, if you plan on going to the Maldives!

The accommodation was excellent, and as described. The room was a good size, very modern, and had a clean bathroom with an excellent shower. The breakfast was great with a good selection and great coffee/tea. They also had some really good options for dinner and a really great chef.The location was also decent as close to the ferry port. My favourite part of the hotel was the staff. The manager, Shaheen, and the team were fantastic! They were always helpful and cheerful and would be there to organise any trips (Whale Shark, Manta Ray's, etc) and would even come with you on the trip to make videos. I cannot recommend this hotel enough if you are staying on this island.

Pristine beaches and crystal clear water. Beautiful sunsets. Friendly and helpful staff. Direct communication with the assigned agent via WhatsApp. Very convenient. Amazing food. Six different restaurants to choose from. Fushi restaurant offers a buffet with different selection every day. I highly recommend to book half board. You will save a lot. Plenty of available water activities. Scuba diving, fishing, snorkeling, dolphin tours, etc. Nice kids club with lots of activities. Outside playground and water castle. Cooking classes. Rockclimbing wall. Karaoke. Game room. You have bicycles assigned to your room. We were riding the bicycles every day around the island. You just can't can't get enough of the nature. The whole island just feels so quiet. Most of the time we hardly saw any people during the day. It almost felt like we rented the whole island.

Absolutely visit th main Island, there lots to visit and experience. Food and people were fantastic. Beaches and activities are also great. There many different boat trips and Island flights, although expensive worth exploring. Its a dry Island so be prepared that theres no alcohol, when were were at airport to fly to Male the duty free are selling you alcohol so if you arrive with bottles etc in hand or checked in luggage its confiscated.

Maafushi is, overall, a great place – the people are friendly and welcoming. The weak point is definitely the services. When it comes to hotels, don’t expect luxury. In my opinion, for what you actually get, it’s overpriced. One big plus is that Maafushi gives you more freedom. You’re not tied to a resort – you can move around, explore, go jogging if you want, and enjoy the island on your own terms. You can book trips easily, there’s stuff to do, and it doesn’t feel restrictive.

Hulhumale despite being busy like the rest of Male has an airy feel to it with lots of greenery - almost colonial. The East side is quiet for traffic although it's close to the seaplane flight paths - I didn't find that intrusive. The West side has the harbour with the ferry terminal and where the liveaboards anchor between trips. When I was there there had been a lot of recent building work so I would avoid staying there. Lots of options for buying fresh fruit and vegentables if you need and a range of places to eat at different price ranges.

I loved the proximity to Male for ease of arrival and departure. I also loved looking at the city lights from afar, whilst being separated by stunningly turquoise waters and the gentle sounds of lapping waves. The marine life in the lagoon was plentiful and beautiful, and I had many marine visitors near my villa at all hours of the day. The snorkelling with sharks-excursion was probably the single best experience, but the resort itself was the star of the whole experience. The quality of the villa (amazing bed, wonderful toiletries from L'Occitane, the view, the constant refill of free fresh water and Nespresso coffee) and the rest of the resort (amazing food, world-class spa) was the stuff of holiday dreams!

I saw sharks rays and turtles a few meters into the see from our cabin.. The food is great and their all inclusive premium includes activities and a session at the spa (or diving if you are certified). I would go back in heartbeat. The staff is sooo nice they definitely made our stay unforgettable, thanks to Shihus that made sure we were up to day during our stay and tended to our needs, Rai an Swarna and all the staff at booli bar and to Shirsti and Aahil and all the staff at the Raabondhi restaurant

The most beautiful sea I have ever seen in my entire life. And mind you, I have visited many seas in many countries! For food, I recommend the restaurant at the Dhiguveli hotel and the Teapot restaurant. Getting around the island is very easy; you can reach any place quickly on foot. Don't miss going to the sandbank at one of the ends of the island.

I enjoyed pretty much everything.

I enjoyed pretty much everything. It was a super place to go for a one week holiday. You're a captivated audience on such a small island but there was more than enough to keep you occupied for the week. The food was excellent, the staff extremely supportive and I think that RIU have a near perfect arrangement for the 'all inclusive' experience.
