About this stay

Arriving at NH Collection Maldives Havodda Resort involves a domestic flight to the Gaafu Atoll, setting the tone for a secluded island escape. Once settled, guests find air-conditioned rooms equipped with flat-screen satellite TVs and comfortable seating areas, each featuring a private bathroom with a bath and bidet. The resort is designed for both relaxation and activity, with a focus on its natural surroundings. The house reef is a major draw, easily accessible for snorkeling and diving directly from the resort's beaches. Beyond the underwater world, the resort provides ample opportunities for water sports, surfing, and even a beach volleyball court for active guests. Families will appreciate the dedicated kids' pool, ensuring younger travelers have their own space to play. Evenings at the resort offer a choice of five dining options, catering to various tastes and preferences. The spa centre provides a tranquil retreat for those seeking wellness and rejuvenation, while the sun terrace is perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. The overall ambiance balances active pursuits with serene moments, making it suitable for a diverse range of travelers.

Our take

I recommend NH Collection Maldives Havodda Resort to active families willing to travel further south. The domestic flight to Kaadedhdhoo takes around 55 to 70 minutes before a speedboat, and in return you get a kids' pool, five dining options, a spa, diving, surfing and beach volleyball. The 8.4 rating rests on only 24 reviews, so I would read recent comments before booking a long stay.

  • ✓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.

Why guests love it

NH Collection Maldives Havodda Resort is a well-equipped family option in Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll: there is a dedicated kids' pool next to the main outdoor pool, five dining options, water sports, diving, surfing and a beach volleyball court. The spa gives parents a break. Arrival is by domestic flight to Gaafu Atoll, so I would plan at least a week. An 8.4 score from 24 reviews is good, on few stays.
