"Staff went over and beyond to make sure everything was good but to a point where it felt overboard. Room doors didn't shut properly and a lot of bugs were in the room, continually killing large ants that crawled on everything including in bed. "

"This is a very nice place for the area. Staff way very helpful, and arranged or incoming and out going transfers, also the dives. But a must was the scooter to drive to the sandbar, trust me it can be walked but u will not enjoy it was much vs taking the very inexpensive scooter the hotel can arrange "

"We had a great stay here. Rishwan is an amazing host. So kind! The room is big, clean, cozy and the available bikes made a big difference. It allows you to explore the whole island with ease. The island is more beautiful than expected as well. There’s a really nice island vibe going on and everyone is very friendly and welcoming. Food options at the hotel and the rest of the island are good. But what really did it for us where the amazing excursions that we did with the guys of seaside. The have...

"Our stay had highs and lows. The best part was the incredible staff - always friendly and helpful. The hotel was also spotless, thanks to the amazing cleaner. Another highlight was its location, just steps from Bikini Beach, making it easy to enjoy the beautiful shoreline.
However, there were several issues. We booked a room with a balcony and sea view but got a small window facing a brick wall. Management first denied the mistake, then blamed Expedia, despite Expedia confirming the hotel...

"What a lovely guesthouse in Dhigurah. We spent 6 nights here and tbh we could stay here forever. Felt right at home from the start. Haseef and his crew were so friendly and Abel to organise trips and rides for us. I enjoyed the traditional Maldivian brekkie but only had it once because my wife don't eat eggs or tuna so we tended to have coffee and biscuits in the room.
The area is very safe, it's close to the local Mosque so you will hear the prayers daily but we didn't mind that as it's...

"The staff (especially Ibrahim in the main restaurant) were so attentive to not just us, but everyone! Ibrahim ensured we had a fantastic dining experience and even was great at entertaining our daughter. The sun villa was standard and very dated, so we decided to upgrade to beach pool villa. We just wish we had done it sooner as it was gorgeous! The only downside is that the hotel isn't really designed for babies: the cot we had was quite dangerous as our daughter bumped her head on the wood...

"Banyan Villa is a wonderful place to stay! I really enjoyed my time there and the very homey feel of the villa. The staff, especially Husnee, Ashraf and Habib are all so incredibly friendly, accomodating and I can't thank them enough for their hospitality. The villa was very clean, the food was wonderful, very healthy and so fresh. Thank you to all the staff at Banyan Villa for making our stay in Dhangethi so wonderful and memorable! We will definitely be back! "

Snorkel among vibrant coral reefs where manta rays and whale sharks glide through crystal-clear waters. Reserve a sunset dolphin cruise from your overwater villa, then dine barefoot on the beach as waves gently lap the shore.
Dive and Sleep - All Inclusive Diving Guesthouse - 3 Dives per day
10/10 Excellent
"It was our honeymoon and we stayed here for our first two days. Midhoo helped me with all the planning and get me the best possible surprise for my wife. We had no experience in diving and he was the best instructor one can ask for. Throughout the diving experience he was with us. We saw manta rays, black fin sharks and turtles along with array of fishes. We had particular food request and they made wholesome food. Everyone was like a family. Definitely will come back again"

However, there were several issues. We booked a room with a balcony and sea view but got a small window facing a brick wall. Management first denied the mistake, then blamed Expedia, despite Expedia confirming the hotel controlled the listing. The hotel refused to take responsibility or offer compensation.
The bathroom had a persistent drain smell, which returned every time we used the shower. With no balcony or large window, airing it out was impossible. Breakfast was meant to be European-style but was a strange mix of foods—though you could order an omelette.
Many excursions were cancelled due to low sign-ups. The whale shark trip, advertised as exclusive for hotel guests, was shared with 16 others from different hotels, some of whom paid less than we did. It lasted seven hours instead of four, with no proper food provided.
The house reef excursion was lovely, but guides seemed more focused on filming for social media than helping guests.
While the staff were fantastic, management lacked accountability. With better organisation, this hotel could be amazing."
