About this stay

This resort on Dhigurah island provides a serene beachfront escape, perfect for those seeking relaxation and aquatic adventures. Days here revolve around the infinity pool, the inviting spa, and exploring the house reef just steps from the shore. Guests can cycle around the island, unwind in diving excursions, or simply unwind in the garden. Evenings offer delightful dining experiences at the restaurant and refreshing drinks at the bar, all within a modern, family-friendly atmosphere. The resort's design ensures comfort and convenience, with thoughtful amenities in every room. The complimentary bicycles are a genuinely useful way to reach the far side of the island for a change of view without booking an excursion.

Our take

Families and couples looking for a well-rounded Maldivian stay will find plenty here. The private pool villas offer an exclusive touch, while the house reef provides fantastic snorkeling opportunities. Travellers focused solely on adult-only, party-centric atmospheres might find it too tranquil, as the emphasis here is on relaxation, wellness, and family-friendly activities. The range of facilities ensures there's something for everyone, from active pursuits to pure indulgence.

  • A private pool villa here brings an elevated, more secluded experience worth the upgrade.
  • Take advantage of the complimentary bicycles to explore the island at your own pace.
  • Spend time exploring the house reef; it's easily accessible and full of marine life.

Why guests love it

With two kids under ten, the interconnecting rooms mattered more than any villa upgrade would have, and the free bicycles got genuine daily use riding to the far side of the island rather than sitting unused in a rack. The house reef starts a short swim from the beach, shallow enough that our eight-year-old could snorkel it without us hovering the whole time.
