Bosnia and HerzegovinaThe 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.

IndonesiaA 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 :)

PakistanOur 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 had a great time at this wonderful resort. It is only some 45 mins by boat from Male. The staff are extremely kind and courteous. The team responsible for sea excursions is very informative and helpful. The restaurant provides a great variety of food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We were booked at half board and there were plenty of options to have a snack during the day at very reasonable prices. The room had all the needed amenities and was cleaned twice a day. Each room had its allocated sun beds in an idyllic environment. It takes around 15/20 minutes to walk around the island to see nature at its best. The sea immediately around this island is already beautiful to swim in and snorkel. The excursions to nearby reefs add to the experience of seeing turtles, mantas, harmless nurse sharks and all kinds of colourful fish (some of which can be seen in the vicinity of the hotel) . The island is very welcoming, well kept and very clean. A place to revisit time and time again.

This was our 3rd return to Bandos Resort. The perfect location, the excellent house reef and the hospitality of the staff are the reasons we keep returning. This resort is excellently managed and it shows in every aspects. I would specially highlight the Sea Breeze staff and the Pool Bar staff as excellent professionals. Special applause to Aditye and Surej at the pool bar! Also I was really impressed how the wifi quality improved since our last visit. Now you could even watch movies online.
Our accomodation was the Beach Villa. Good news to future travellers, that now all Beach Villas are finished with reconstruction, the quality, freshness of design is superb. The bed was extremely comfortable, I would rate it as the best ever I have experienced in a hotel. I had zero problem with my neck herniation during the whole stay of 10 days. View to ocean also got significantly better from these Villas, as renovation also included gardening renewal.

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.

We loved everything. We had bad luck with weather for the first 2 days but with the help of Abdulsalaam (our concierge) and rest of staff, that loss was quickly compensated.
The water villas are magnificent, photos do them justice, but don’t really explain the happiness of taking a dive and seeing all the coral and loads of fish right in your house.
The food is always on point, both in main restaurant or in the Japanese one. The staff always cordial and attentive.
The ladies in the spa are true magicians.
The activities available were great, especially swimming with the sharks.

Thank you for fast and smooth boat transfer, did’t have to wait at Male airport. Also thank you for early check-in so we could enjoy the holiday as soon as possible (this is the thing that is not usually available in hotels).
We got villa 181 with beautiful sand beach and view with sea and palms. Not windy, calm & clear water.
The island has about 15 beaches, explored them all by bicycle or walk. The beaches were really beautiful.
Delicious food at breakfast and Rhabarbaro restaurant for dinner. Especially like breakfast buffet with choice of a la carte menu.

We got a villa at sufficient distance from the main beach - such a gateway on the island! The furnishings, the design, the open plan bathroom are a total delight. The flora and fauna of the island are fascinating. There are some dead coral in the beach sand in front of the villa, but this is not a problem. The hotel and restaurant staff are very helpful, the cooks are cheerful and friendly, the menu is varied and delicious. There is no crowd, everything is calm and decent. Transfer is clearly organized. Our first experience on Maldives was very positive.

its Beautiful area and there is lot oto do in terms of awsum coral reefs, marine life etc. Only thing that was a bit of botheration was a one hour speed boat ride from airport. For someone with motion sickness, despite that boats are made luxurious to a level, this would be uncomfortable ride.

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!

We LOVED Dhiffushi!
We LOVED Dhiffushi! A real taste of a local island, the thing that struck us was how quiet and peaceful it was. We wandered everywhere on foot and loved that the roads are all sand. We were there in monsoon season and experienced some storms but they were short and everyone just gets on with stuff. There was some rubbish washed up on the non-hotel beach areas but most hotels keep their areas spotless. Both bikini beaches were absolutely stunning. Would definitely recommend Dhiffushi as a real gem of a local island. As an added bonus, we could not believe how cheap everything was too!

I absolutely loved my time in Thulusdhoo - my first time in the Maldives! I feel I picked a fabulous island to spend 4 days of relaxation and calmness following a busy elective healthcare placement.
The island was so beautiful and peaceful. The beaches were so clean, white sands, the water was crystal clear, all sun-loungers free to use and very friendly locals and business owner stalls, businesses, and restaurants. A couple I met whilst away also got engaged on sunset beach with the most beautiful backdrop (a real must to visit during the evenings)!
Plenty of places to choose from to eat - from beach bars to evening dining. I went to Juice Bench every day for lunch, the staff were so kind and smiley and the food was delicious and fresh. I also ate dinner at Indulge (10/10 pizza!), Cafe Bandaha for dinner, amazing tikka masala curry and the freshest apple juice! (Breakfast was included in my hotel - Eden Blue - which I also highly recommend!).
I took two excursions with Baani Watersports - first the reef shark and stingray trip, which was absolutely amazing! The second trip was the sandbank and turtles trip, again - amazing! The team were very friendly, fun, and ensured we were looked after throughout. They took fabulous photo's of us all on their gopro which they sent to us afterwards free of charge. I also found their pricing very competitive!
Getting around the island is easy peasy. I walked every day, it is quite small so can be easily lapped in around 45 minutes of strolling. People were also using mopeds and bicycles. I also received a complementary shuttle service from the ferry port to my accommodation and back which was a very welcomed bonus.
Overall, the island is wonderful, the people are so lovely, and I'm SO glad I picked this island to spend my 4 days! I hope to be back one day soon - perhaps with someone next time so I have a companion in the evenings when it's a little quieter!

Guraidhoo - ferry every day and easy to reach from Male, not so busy yet, not yet ugly concrete big buildings, bikini beach is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. White soft sand with turquoise warm water and sandy shore for fantastic swimming and walking on the sandbar - great for kids too, sunbeds and good cafe on the beach, there are corals and ship wreck for snorkeling and not to forget the shark feeding place - simply amazing to watch sharks and rays - great entertainment for the evening. There are great restaurants with fantastic prices. This island is amazing choice !

It is a really peaceful island with a really nice beach. Beach has almost that resort level quality to it. Island is small, so besides water activities or some excursions, there is not much to do, so for some travelers it might get boring.

Huraa immediately felt peaceful, unique and refreshing, with serene beaches, stunning views, vibrant coral reefs, and lush green mangrove swamps that makes the island feel untouched. The shallow lagoons connecting to nearby spots, mangroves, and quiet corners create a sense of calm, while watching seaplanes land adds a unique charm. The island is vibrant yet uncrowded, offering a perfect balance of natural beauty and tranquility that makes every moment relaxing and memorable.

It was a lovely island friendly people & I think I stayed in the best place for me on this island my host were fantastic, they could not of done more to make my stay any better than it already was 10/10 perfect 😍
I loved all the food I had @ Indian cafe,loved swimming @ the local beach, not bikini beach
One thing I really disliked was Moscow yeda they tried to double charge me on my credit card when I asked them about 6 of them just started laughing, eventually I got my money back & that was the only bad experience on the whole island.
