Great staff. Lots of organised activities such as line fishing, snorkelling, diving, range of water sports, and night time events in the bar (like karaoke, DJ nights). Speedboat transfer 2.5 hours, seaplane 45 mins.

Good for the money
The staff are wonderful, excellent service and the food was really good with a good selection each day but the rooms need to be refurbished, stayed in the water bungalow and the deck, steps, doors, roof etc need to be replaced, looking very tatty. I'm sure this is reflected in the price as it was very reasonable i think for Maldives, would return once renewed. DO NOT TAKE THE SPEEDBOAT TRANSFER, 2.5 to 3 hours of hell. We spoke to a couple who crossed in the dark which must have been even worse, pay the extra for the water plane, its roughly an hour with a stop and the views are beautiful.

Thank you for staying with us and for your feedback. We are glad to know that you enjoyed your stay. We will take note of your feedback. For the transfer service, we always suggest to our guests to take the Seaplane transfer if they have extra for faster transport and if they are on budget, they can have a speedboat transfer.We hope to see you again soon, thank you!

I went with my wife for our honeymoon for 2 weeks. We took a Watervilla that was amazing with a great view.. The food was amazing a lot was indian food but international options were available. The staff was super friendly, thumbs up for Jowel. If you can afford it take the seaplane it's more confortable, we took the boat for arrival and seaplane for departure. The boat was fun but it takes longer (2h30 hours) and you may feel the need to vomit, seaplane is smooth and fast (40 min). Highly recommend the stay.

The place is good, if you want to pay for every basic amenity and even after paying for the full board you get the option to pay for drinks. Please take fresh clean dollar bills as they will examine them like a hawk for when you check out and pay for the invoice. Ask for extra bathroom essentials and they will hesitate to provide them. Overall a good expensive place which will provider services for a cost even though you have booked the all inclusive package.

Property is in delapidated state Even walls in reception area are peeling off and worn out. Ants -big and small - are running around inside rooms and even on dining table. Faucet is broken and missing a part in our vanity area. Overall dirty and uncomfortable. Everything is severely worn out-drapes, chairs are old and dated and not clean. This is a 2 star resort charging 4 star prices. Food is terrible both in quality and cooking. Considering we are paying close to $40 a meal we are eating worse than junk food. Not only food tastes bad, you cannot chew the meat. It is like hard frozen meat. Only good thing is Lynn who is the customer supervisor. She is extremely helpful and kind. Most of the staff are helpful and nice. Unfortunately the place and facilities are so bad.

I would recommend this hotel to a friend. Hotel staff is absolutely amazing. They were kind and hospitable every day and greeted us with a smile!! The rooms are good but should be maintained a bit more and should be updated soon. Food is super expensive so opt into the all inclusive plan. The water bungalows are nice but not worth the money. Lastly, go line fishing.

Wonderful Island Resort
We stayed for a week at Medhufushi Island Resort for our honeymoon and it was a fantastic experience. We stayed for half the week in the semi-detached beach house and the rest of the week in the beach villa. Both rooms were fantastic and offered their views and experiences. The island itself is very beautiful and being the only resort on the entire island, it felt that we had the entire island to ourselves. The staff were great, attentive but not intrusive. In the dining area we were attended by Ali Mahir who was great and after a couple of days, he became familiar with our regular drink orders and would have them ready at our table as soon as we entered the dining area. The food varied on a day to day basis and although it was a bit different in taste to what we are used to, it was generally pretty good. They have watersports and spa on the island as well. Would definitely recommend the waterbed and jet skiing with the Dolphins. Ask for Rosh who was wonderful and made sure we made the most of the activities. The excursions offered by the island are pretty good and though snorkelling is free, it would be good if they can provide the customers with a little more guidance on what to expect for those who haven't done this before. The island is far from Male and you have to travel via seaplane so to make it worth your while, best to have your stay for at-least 3 days. Overall a fantastic experience and would definitely recommend to other travellers as well.

Medhufushi Island Resort trip
This was our first time staying at Medhufushi Island Resort . We stayed there for 5 nights in the Over Water Bungalow. The resort is beatiful and food was good. We did the haft board deal which includ breakfast and dinner. The resort provided free snokling tour which was a bonus and nightly entertainment at one of the bar restaurant. We were here in October so the weather was kind of raining on and off. But, over all we had the best time here. The staffs here are wonderful people.

Dirty piece of land - important!
Read this review of the island if you really want to know what's going on there. That unprofessional pack back on the island would always throw in how their island is a paradise when in fact you get a diariya from the food every single night - not the stuff paradises are made of! My wife and I got there for a honeymoon - to which we have been congragulated with a couple of joined twin beds!!! When asking to move to a new room they wanted us to stay at the same room for 2 out of 4 nights! After arguing we finally slept there for 1 night only :( After moving to our new room we where accused of drinking half the drinks at the minibar - by the room cleaner! After telling him we did not drink the drinks he argued with us - and he doesn't even know English.. He would just keep on saying: "there was drinks, there was drinks" No matter what we have told him. As some sort of a punishement he wouldn't feel the minibar. We went to the reception to clean our bill. At the last day we discovered that the room cleaner charged us again for the same drinks he did not feel on the first day!!! We were promissed that the room is cleaned twice a day and that towels are changed twice as well.. after arguing with the room cleaner on the first day he never came into our room for the secong time! We got half of what we have paid for! Overall stay wasn't really pleasent.. Constant feeling that you should pay the island more if you want to enjoy.. Fake smiles and lousy attractions to make you get bored quicker.. And if you've forgot to bring your own snorkel and mask with you?! Prepare to pay 10$ per day for it! As if you don't pay 300 of them already.. Diving costs are twice as they are normally are at any other place in the world - and if you think they will take tou to the best location you are wrong! You must wait until you dive a few times - no one will take you to the best diving spots before you pay everything they can take from you.. The beach is white but nothing too special.. Reaf's all dead and almost no fish. A real paradise is found on the other side of the Indian ocean - where the seychelles are (where we are pleasently continuing our honeymoon). Enjoy.

great stay but with some unpleasence
It is my second time in Maldives. Medhufushi resort is good.However, the room size is not so big, both water villa and beach villa. The yard is small and has no jaccuzi. Besides, it is a relative populous island with dense villas.There is no tennis court and only one swimming pool and one dinning hall. The swimming pool is not as good as the one I stayed last time and the dinning hall is crowded. I think the hotel just makes space for more room with many beach villas still empty and idle. The staff is very friendly and I saw a lot of fish very easily around,though there is no coral reefs around.The resort has free snorkeling trip every day except Wednesday. We went every time and it was great! We went to different places and the crew are very nice and helpful. The accompanied unskilled kids for snorkeling. The only unpleasantness is the reception employee, the one we went for checking out. He asked as several times for tips.When he found us change, he first gave us some dollars less.After we checked the amount, he gave us the rest reluctantly. Then he asked to see our home currency , trying for tips another time. I appreciate everything the staff do for us, but this person really only does print the receipt ,he does not deserve it.

Perfect Honeymoon Spot.
We stayed here for 10 days on our honeymoon. The staff were generally very friendly and helpful. We spent our days snorkelling, swimming, relaxing, and simply staring off our deck at the beautiful surrounds. It was a 40 minute seaplane ride to and from Male Airport, but I think that the seaplane ride was an experience in itself (bring earplugs, the engines can be a bit too noisy for some people.) We had a Water Villa, sunrise side, which in our opinion was much better, no glaring sun in the afternoon heat meant we could spent our afternoons comfortable on the deck. I would have been kicking myself if we'd gone all the way to paradise and not spent a little extra on the room. The buffet had a good selection, with some staples and always a new dish to try each night - Sri Lankan Egg Hoppers are my new favourite thing! We were half board, originally we thought we could get away with it but with dinner starting so late (730pm) and breakfast finishing at 945am, it was just too long a time to go without eating. All the same it was much nicer to order room service or stroll to the restaurant adjoining the Vilu Bar. Also cheaper than to pay to sit in the buffet for a 3rd time in a day. Read the information sheets they give you, there are some great free activities but the staff don't verbally advertise them, and if no one shows up they cancel. We very nearly missed out on crab racing because there was not enough people signed up - we went and grabbed people to join!

Dream Honeymoon
My wife's dream vacation was to stay in a tropical water villa, and Medhufushi did not disappoint at all. The island itself is small, and there are only around 200 total guest rooms, so you feel as if you are in your own tropical paradise in the middle of the Indian Ocean. The water villas are amazing; nothing beats relaxing on the deck watching sea turtles, sting rays, and reef sharks swim past all day. The service staff are super friendly, most spoke perfect English, and they were very responsive. The food at the buffets was excellent, with constant variety at every dinner. It was really, really hard to come home.

Beach villa
Nice beach cottage. The hotel staff was not as well trained as we expected. When we checked in, they apologized for no Wifi in the room but we were offered the option to purchase wifi in the public are which we did. It was agonizingly slow - .3 MB/sec. After almost a week, one of the employees offered us a SIM card for purchase. We did that and it was great. We felt like this should have been offered by the hotel but wasn't. We told the food and beverage manager about our dissatisfaction with the internet offered and then he told us about buying a SIM card. Why did they not offer this until we complained? We intended to kiteboard but when we inquired about it they said the person who does that was away for a month. Very disappointed about that. With limited activities, they should have that covered so it is available always. Price for diving was about three times what I usually pay at other dive resorts around the world. Prices for staples in the gift shop were very expensive. In one case, 5 times what we pay at home in the drug store for basics.

Excellent hotel for our first trip to Maldives
Staying in an over water bungalow we really loved our stay at Medhufushi and it proved to be an excellent choice for our first stay in the Maldives. The staff for breakfast and lunch were always very friendly and welcoming. We also had a chance meeting with Kevin the resort manager who was extremely friendly and chatted to me and my wife for around 30 minutes on random topics, turned out to be one of the most interesting people I have ever met.

Enjoyable family vacation
Ideal family vacation. Excellent service, good food ( lunch expensive on average $100 for a family of four). It is recommended that guests bring their own snorkeling and diving gear as the rentals are very expensive. Similarly Wi fi and seaplane transfers very very expensive. ( factor in the costs of seaplane transfer when choosing hotel as some establishments offer free transfers and wi fi) Beach villa suites excellent accommodation for families. Overall assessment not truly a 5 star establishment but I would say a superior 4 star. I would recommend Medifushi for a family vacation

Nice Island Resort
As a young couple looking for a nice spot for some time off the grid, we were very pleased with both the environment and the facilities. The island is gorgeous and the beach villa that we rented was nice and quiet. The food and service were ok and our  experience was overall pretty relaxing and genuine. The dolphin watching excursion was just great and the snorkelling experience really blew us away. The only things that we felt could still be improved were the seaplane transfer and the check-out. The seaplane transfer was a little rushed and confusing. When we approached the Medhufushi desk at MLE we were given our tickets and put on a bus in literally less than 1 minute - that including the luggage check-in. We were also given two check-in cards to be filled on the way to the resort, which left us puzzled as to why they should be taken care of on an airplane with no A/C nor pens. The check-out also become a little confusing when a receptionist told us hat we would have to leave the room by 12am the next day and wait by the jetty, despite our goodbye letter stating later times for both the luggage collection and the seaplane transfer. That left us really confused so we came back to the reception the next morning. We were lucky enough to talk to a different receptionist that confirmed our goodbye letter and told us that we could indeed use the room until the departure time as ours was a late check-out.

Nice hotel, if you come prepared
We booked a semi-detached villa formthe first leg of our honeymoon and even though the overall experience was good, we had a few setbacks. First of all, the room's bathroom is out in the open, which means that you will have to shower in a small garden - which is of course fenced by a 2,5m wall - outside the room. This was not exactly a problem as privacy is indeed provided, even though some people may find this difficult to cope with. Second of all, the toilet is also out in the open, which results in being almost constantly inhabited by ants, lots and lots of ants. Besides these teo things, the room is in general good, with a comfortable bed, flat-screen television, mini bar, big wardrobe and a veranda that is just 5 meters from the ocean. Wifi not available in the rooms though. Keep in mind that almost all hotels in Maldives are secluded and far from anything else, which means that you will have to spend all of your day at the beach or pool or you will have to book an excursion from the hotel. Moreover, the food is a bit pricey for the quality offered, even though the buffet is big and has many choices. I strongly recommend anyone booking to go for the full board as with the half board we booked we had to pay good money for the basic lunch in the a la carte retaurant. The lunch buffet is also a bit pricey and basic. All in all the hotel was good, if you come prepared for the above mentioned things.

Paradise!
First of all the staff was just amazing! We all know that one of the main goals of hotels are customer sevice, well this place hit a home run with that one. The waitstaff, The Vilu Bar staff, the boat guys on the snorkeling/ island hopping, and the guy working the little beach bar down by the watervillas all treat you like a VIP!

Close to airport
Room was small and the view was of a brick wall and garbage out the other window.
