Why guests love itWe chose OUTRIGGER Maafushivaru for its size, small enough that we walked the whole island barefoot on our first afternoon and still found new corners on day three. The all-inclusive plan meant neither of us tracked a running bill, and the house reef right off the beach gave us daily snorkelling without a single boat trip. The villas lean into local materials rather than glossy resort styling, which suited us far more than a bigger, flashier island would have.
