Hotels near Kihaadhuffaru

Great location and rooms, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend

Right on the beach, lots of loungers and lovely places to sit. Pool is amazing - right over the sea.

Warm, friendly staff. Committed to helping guests get the best experience of Dharavandhoo and the neighbouring islands. Staff & guides are knowledgeable about the tides and behaviour of manta rays and whale sharks. After 3 attempts over 3 days, the weather and tide finally made it possible for us to swim with about 50 manta rays and 2 whale sharks at Hanifaru Bay. Exhilarating experience.

The scenery and activities is pretty similar across the various guesthouses on the island, we saw turtles and rays when snorkeling near the beach. I will focus more on what makes Chak’z stand out instead. I really love the rooms. They are new, big and very spacious. There is enough space to lay out all our swimming and photography equipment. We got a room on the ground floor so there is direct access to the beach. I love to sit on the sofa near the glass window to look at the sea at times. The service staffs at Chak’z are also very kind, they really try their best to attend to all our requests. During our manta and snorkeling trips, Husham will always look out for us and make sure we are safe and well. We didn’t eat often at the in-house restaurant, but no matter what time we go, the guys will immediately greet us and get to work. The food always tasted great! Their breakfast is very simple, not a very fancy buffet with many dishes. But it was good for us because we love Maldivian tuna roshi. Chak’z Roshi is one of the softest that I have ever eaten. If you like varieties, there are many eateries around the island within 10 min’s walk. You can also get many things from the local supermarket. If we ever visit Dharavandhoo again, we will definitely stay at Chak’z again.

This guesthouse is a 12 out of 10! Great location, beautiful guesthouse and very well thought out, the host Thoriq is more than helpful and all of the staff is friendly. The food tastes great and all in all we recommend this guesthouse for a stay on Maalhos!

Thank you very much to Nazy and his Team for everything. They helped us with everything to the fullest, and the 12 nights we spent there will be an unforgettable experience. The food is excellent, the rooms are comfortable, and the beach is very close and impeccably maintained. The kindness and humanity of the staff are captivating, and the island residents are also wonderful. The programs offered by the accommodation are varied; we were lucky enough to see manta rays and whale sharks, and they even organized custom programs upon request. They did everything to ensure we had a great time, and when we needed help due to illness, they immediately took care of everything. Thank you very much!

Our stay at Reethi Beach Resort was nothing short of magical! The location and accommodation is absolutely beautiful and the staff are so incredibly lovely! We stayed in one of the stunning over-water villas and were able to step off our balcony into the turquoise blue ocean, where just underneath the surface was one of the most beautiful and healthy reefs we've ever seen (and we're from Australia with the Great Barrier Reef). On the house reef alone there were 1000s of beautiful tropical fish, turtles, reef sharks, dolphins, and even manta rays! The staff go above and beyond to make your stay as wonderful as possible! Some key angels on the island include: At the Moodoo Bar and Restaurant (beautiful over-water restaurant): Rayan, Emee, Reefa, Ali and Chandra At the Coconut Spa: Shivali and her wonderful team At the bar: The sweetest bartender Priya And the managers Dammi and Gaurang The food and drink on the island was absolutely delicious and there was such a wide range of it too! Would highly recommend the private beach dinner and sunrise breakfast, as well as the wine pairing dinner and beach BBQ. We went with the breakfast only package which worked really well for us as we could dine wherever we liked (which was more often than not the Moodoo bar where the lovely and friendly staff were). The only point of feedback was that the dive centre is quite disorganised and not great at communicating. We came during the first weekend of August for the manta ray cyclone at Baa Atoll and were unfortunately unable to see the cyclone due to the lack of communication from the dive centre. However, Barney almost made up for it with the incredible night snorkelling with a 10m whale shark! In any case, the snorkelling and freediving on the house reef was spectacular. Also, the mattresses in the villas could be made softer. We are hoping to come back to the Maldives soon and will now always stay at Reethi Beach Resort as our holiday there was that magical.

Good food. Excellent service. Jon was very helpful in everything we needed and always there for help and all the staff was friendly.

Everything.

We had a wonderful days on the island thanks to Ahmed and his team. Ahmed met us at the airport, shared information about the island and showed us where everything was. The room was large, everything was clean. The breakfasts were excellent. Ahmed organised several tours for us at very nice prices. Everything was incredible. We swam with mantas, sharks, rays and even went night snorkelling with a whale shark. We recommend staying at this guest house, you will be very satisfied. We will definitely come back!
