Our take

This resort is ideal for families and couples seeking a comprehensive Maldivian experience with a strong emphasis on marine activities. The accessible house reef makes it particularly attractive for snorkelers and divers, while the kids' pool and family-friendly amenities cater well to those traveling with children. Travelers looking for a lively, party-centric atmosphere might find the resort's tranquil setting too quiet, as it focuses more on relaxation and nature-based activities.

  • Plan your domestic flight transfer in advance to ensure a smooth arrival at Gaafu Atoll.
  • Take advantage of the house reef for snorkeling; it's easily accessible and full of marine life.
  • Explore the five dining options throughout your stay to experience the full culinary variety on offer.

  • Multiple dining options for every taste
  • Dedicated kids' pool for families
  • Excellent diving and surfing opportunities
Why guests love it

We picked NH Collection Maldives Havodda mainly for the kids' pool, separate enough from the main pool that our toddler had space to splash without dodging adult swimmers. The five dining rooms meant our fussy eight-year-old always found something, and the house reef right off the beach let us snorkel as a family without booking a boat.
