"My wife had an amazing stay, we can highly suggest this hotel. The staff are great, location is perfect with a "Tourist/Bikini" beach just nearby along with some nice reefs to snorkel. They also have loungers at the beach for you. Kayaks, paddle boards, snorkel gear is available for free as well.
We did the Whale Shark excursion and the pricing was good. The whale sharks were amazing to see but be ready for some crowds.
If you plan to stay on Fenfushi this is the best and only place you should...

"La migliore Guesthouse dell'isola, gestita da una famiglia (maldiviana) attenta e premurosa, che fa di tutto per farti sentire a casa. Cucina maldiviana con un tocco di italianità (pasta), le camere sono ben tenute con un ottima pulizia. Le escursioni da loro organizzate, sulle varie isole deserte dei dintorni sono fantastiche. Assolutamente da raccomandare."

"What a lovely guesthouse in Dhigurah. We spent 6 nights here and tbh we could stay here forever. Felt right at home from the start. Haseef and his crew were so friendly and Abel to organise trips and rides for us. I enjoyed the traditional Maldivian brekkie but only had it once because my wife don't eat eggs or tuna so we tended to have coffee and biscuits in the room.
The area is very safe, it's close to the local Mosque so you will hear the prayers daily but we didn't mind that as it's...

"This property is very recommendable. It is very clean. The food is done with love. The employees are very attentive and accommodating.
Unfortunately, the infrastructure (e.g. beaches) is not really usable due to religious reasons. Burning waste in the neighborhood sometimes causes odor problems. Combustion should also be optimized here for environmental reasons (this is a task for the local public administration).
Overall, the accommodation is definitely worth recommending. The aforementioned...

"This was our first time in the Maldives and we were glad we chose the Constance Moofushi hotel. Started from the beginning by greeting at the airport to the end of the stay, every moment is excellent. Every staff member of the hotel team is professional in their job. Because of their warm treatment, our journey was memorable. In addition, the foods and beverages were beyond my expectations and we were very pleased about this. We will be back to this hotel in the future for definitely. "

Machchafushi Island Resort & Spa Maldives, The Centara Collection
10/10 Excellent
"Stayed 6 nights at the Machchafushi resort. An amazing experience overall. Great location with friendly and helpful staff. Enjoyed the stay and food. The room was spotless and the minibar daily replenished. Siva and Shafiq at the bar made some excellent mocktails and Yuvi explained everything to us on arrival. Credits to Nasru from house keeping . An overall great experience. Very unique given we had never stayed before on an over the water villa. "
"Our stay had highs and lows. The best part was the incredible staff - always friendly and helpful. The hotel was also spotless, thanks to the amazing cleaner. Another highlight was its location, just steps from Bikini Beach, making it easy to enjoy the beautiful shoreline.
However, there were several issues. We booked a room with a balcony and sea view but got a small window facing a brick wall. Management first denied the mistake, then blamed Expedia, despite Expedia confirming the hotel controlled the listing. The hotel refused to take responsibility or offer compensation.
The bathroom had a persistent drain smell, which returned every time we used the shower. With no balcony or large window, airing it out was impossible. Breakfast was meant to be European-style but was a strange mix of foods—though you could order an omelette.
Many excursions were cancelled due to low sign-ups. The whale shark trip, advertised as exclusive for hotel guests, was shared with 16 others from different hotels, some of whom paid less than we did. It lasted seven hours instead of four, with no proper food provided.
The house reef excursion was lovely, but guides seemed more focused on filming for social media than helping guests.
While the staff were fantastic, management lacked accountability. With better organisation, this hotel could be amazing."
