It was our 3rd year anniversary and we had the best time ever…first of all on arrival..we got the WARMEST welcome from Mary our hostess…she’s very kind, friendly and pays attention to details… she made us very comfortable However, on the massage sector, my wife had the WORST experience with Margaret…she didn’t pay attention to the areas requested and after complaining my wife left there in pain and sore…she wasn’t as friendly so I wouldn’t recommend her… the waiters on the other hand are really kind and nice.. The rooms aren’t properly cleaned..the hygiene is not the best and you can tell its overtime poor maintenance…stains on the white tiles here and there and green mould around the shower corners… we stayed at the water villa with a pool Other than that, the food is 10/10 … the experience was amazing…enjoyed the sunset fishing, feeding and touching the stingrays and seeing baby sharks from our villa..it was surreal.. If you like to have fun, i’d recommend checking in on a Thursday as they always have DJ night and Rachana makes the BEST sheesha…and don’t forget to ask for Mary for a splendid experience. The place was definitely worth it, we’d definitely recommend

Staff were very friendly. Property did not have much facilities and the cleanliness inside the Villa could have been better. The wardrobe doors were not able to close properly and the varnish on the wooden furniture had worn off to show steaks and patches

Not only did the ocean waters and sandy beaches look even better in person, but the entire experience was a wonderful vacation. Additionally, we had a minor medical situation and the onsite doctor, Dr. Dema was wonderful; the hotel manager, Ally was also wonderful. We highly recommend this property!

We had asked evening transport during the way back since day 1. We were told they will inform us even though we asked to be notified in advance so many times. Nobody came back until 12pm noon time, and they said in 15 minutes airplane will depart. This resulted our arrival to Mahe airport 11 hours earlier than our flight to Dubai. It was a totally disappointing experience. Furthermore, food is horrible. We have seen hotel employees were systematically entering misleading positive comments about this facility. Stay away, there are so many places in Dubai which would not ruin your holiday

Staff: the service at this resort is unparalleled, with the resort staff going out of their way to meet and exceed all of your needs. Special thanks to Mohammed at guest relations, the lovely team at the main restaurant who took care of us all week, and Shaheen our room boy, as well as the staff at Maldives airport making the seaplane transfer as seamless as possible. The service is truly exceptional at the resort--hopefully the staff will be taken care of during the six month shutdown for renovations coming up in April. Water Villa: the semi water Villa was absolutely amazing, with a beautiful spacious deck and a massive outdoor bathroom. The Villa itself was really nicely appointed with everything you could need, and it was a lovely experience to be able to wake up and jump in the shallow water straight from your room! Water shoes are recommended for those who are sensitive to walking on sharp floors, but it was also doable without. Food: we were consistently impressed by the buffet food at the main restaurant. Over the course of seven days each lunch and dinner was varied and different, often taking on themes. Breakfast has mostly the same dishes on offer but we didn't find an issue with that. We were amazed at the quality and authenticity achieved by the chefs given how remote the island is! They even took requests for certain cuisines and added a few dishes to appeal to my family's tastes. The dessert in particular was amazing, make sure to try the panna cotta!

Wonderful beach
The best thing about this resort is the beach. Amazing! Incredible color, clear, cool. We just loved it! The staff is really friendly and they have night activities for pretty much everyday. I did get the impression that it is an Italian resort. Not a huge problem, but you can feel a little bit left out with you don't speak Italian. Nevertheless, we loved our stay and would definitely recommend the resort! If you like to drink, consider the all inclusive package. It's good value for money.

Perfect!
We stayed at Dhigufaru for 8 nights and couldn’t have asked for more. The island is a real paradise, heaven on earth but most importantly the staff is exceptional. They will make you feel special and well looked after. We really enjoyed snorkelling safari and sunset fishing. We will certainly be back.

Excellent hotel, beach views!
One of the best resorts I have been to, the beach is just extra ordinary. The water and the rich white sand is something I have never seen before. Staff was awesome. Food was excellent as well, special shoutout to VIJAY from the restaurant for making special vegetarian dishes everyday for our stay. Also huge shoutout to MURALI from the pool bar for serving us best drinks and snacks along with great customer service. I would definately come back here. Love this place.

Struttura bellissima perfettamente inserita in questa piccola isola. Spiaggia bianca e pulitissima, con un mare dai colori fantastici. La camera, con la discesa direttamente in acqua, è davvero molto bella. Ottimo il cibo e il personale è sempre gentile e sorridente. Isola con poche stanze, quindi con poche persone, è l'ideale per rilassarsi. Abbiamo trascorso dei giorni indimenticabili. Speriamo di tornarci presto.

Vacanza all'insegna del relax
Piccola isola per pochi ospiti; per questo motivo Dhigufaru è un resort rilassante dove le ville a disposizione sono ampie e dotate di ogni confort specialmente in bagno. Non sono molto frequenti le attività sportive, probabilmente per via della meravigliosa spiaggia e per il mare da sogno che bastano a occupare il tempo a disposizione. Il resort organizza comunque escursioni non impegnative o stancanti (un paio d'ore) adatte a tutti. Durante il soggiorno si possono scordare le scarpe, l'orologio e ascoltare solo il suono del mare e della natura. Il ristorante - senza code al buffet, nè confusione - è vario e ricco, con gusti italiani, maldiviani e internazionali.

Paradiso
Esperienza favolosa....cosa dire, avevamo la villa sulla sponda lunga di questo piccolissimo atollo spiaggia bianchissima servivano gli occhiali da sole per poterci andare talmente rifletteva, acqua incredibilmente calda e trasparente, camera grandissima a 10 passi dal mare comodissima soprattutto se si ha un bambino piccolo come noi, bagno favoloso gigantesco. Personale sempre sorridente e disponibile l’unico neo è sul cibo o meglio sulla mancanza di varietà di pesce, carne e dolci super ma come scelta di pesce poca e ripetitiva! Comunque ci tornerei domani e lo consiglio a tutti...ah dimenticavo che figata l’idrovolante!!!

Die besten Ferien seit langem zum Entspannen
Also als Erstes muss ich gestehen dass ich den Aufenthalt ca. 6 Stunden vor der Abreise gebucht habe die Insel mir jedoch schon 4 Wochen vorher gründlich angesehen habe. Der Aufenthalt im Resort war einfach nur perfekt !! Das Betreuerteam beginnend am Flughafen ( Empfang durch einen Mitarbeiter) dann der Transport mit dem Wasserflugzeug und schliesslich die Begrüßung und Begleitung an den Beach Bungalow waren top Das neue Resort ist mit ca. 40 Bungalows eher eines von den kleineren auf den Malediven doch wer die Ruhe sucht das Essen liebt die Gastfreundschaft schätzt und auch von einem kleinen Italienischen Animations Team betreut werden möchte ist hier genau richtig Nicht zu vergessen die vielen freundlichen zuvorkommenden und hilfsbereiten Mitarbeiter/innen im Vordergrund sowie das Team dahinter Die Minibar war top aufgefüllt auch wenn ich ausser den 4 Liter gratis Mineralwasser täglich( Pulver Kaffee sowie Grüntee wurde bereitgestellt) nichts heraus genommen habe Eine Kapsel Kaffeemaschine samt Nespresso Kapseln war vorhanden Die Strandliegen und Sonnenschirme waren in einem einwandfreien Zustand und wurden täglich bereitgestellt am Abend konnte man die Liegen darauf lassen und sie wurden zum Bungalow gebracht das war ein überaus freundlicher Service den ich sehr geschätzt habe auch als es einmal stürmisch war und eine der Verankerungsstifte am Schirm gerissen war wurde dieser Tags darauf ausgewechselt Täglich war auch ein Reinigungsteam am Strand unterwegs
