    Especially in the rain season carefully check the weather before you book snorkeling and diving trips. Nobody is responsible for the weather but everybody should enjoy the time as much as possible.

    From the first moment to the last Kitti was there. Always reachable, very good communication and if she is not around you can always contact her via WhatsApp. I personally like it this way. I stayed 5 nights and would come back. The hotel is located directly in the small town, 5 min walk to the closest restaurant, grocery shops around. 2 min walk to the harbor (good for diving 😉) 50-60min walk to the end of the island (sand banks). If you're lazy you can hire bikes, scooter or "taxi" transfer. The room was very comfy and I was sleeping very well in the bed. Aircon works fine. Fridge also. The bathroom is big enough for me, like in whole asia, you don't have space to put things and the bathroom is flooded after shower. But the room overs lot of options to store your stuff. Very hot shower. In general I think the room was a very good price value in comparison to other hotels on the island and especially in comparison to the privat resorts around the islands. All stuff was very friendly and helpful. Even though there are mosquitos on the island, I never had a single one in my room 😀

    From the moment we arrived at Dhigurah ferry port, we were warmly greeted by the hotel staff and the hotel manager Kitti. The drive from the port to the hotel in their car was a great way to start our vacation. The hotel's location is excellent, and the room was spacious, well-appointed, and impeccably clean. The bed was comfortable, and all amenities provided were of high quality. The Breakfast options were excellent, offering something with fresh, local ingredients. A variety of breakfast to suit all tastes. We highly recommend Dhigurah Cottage to anyone looking for a flawless experience in the Maldives. Kitti and the hotel staff went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was as smooth and enjoyable as possible.

    New modern and clean rooms, recommended for short stay, as currently no kitchen available

    - They do not have their own kitchen, so breakfast was packed as to-go… First toast, one small melted butter, sausage, one small jam, eggs… a lot of plastic and I do not like sausage and do not eat so much grease food, but no other choice… we ended up throwing away almost everything from the meal, so wasted food and plastic for nothing… The hotel should state in advance about this. After we complained we received Maldivian breakfast, but it still was packed as to-go…anyway the hotel made up for it when we did the payment as we received a small amount reduced. However we found out they are in the process of making a kitchen, so this will probably change in the future. :) - Another small point - the toilet smells sometimes, I think it’s from the pipes, as the rooms were very clean and nice. - The excursions on the island are bounded to the hotel you stay. So if you want to do an excursion with another service provider, you need to get the ok from your hotel. The island needs to change this policy. We received ok, as at the time we were there their go-pro was not working and we were supposed to go with the divers, although we wanted to do snorkeling tour (manta and whale shark). Also compared to other islands the prices are high-for few hours tour the price here was 90 euro and you have to go separately for manta and separately for whale shark… if no luck in seeing the animals - you still have to pay. On other islands you can do a full day tour with that money… and the mantas and whale sharks grounds are around Dhigurah. So strongly recommended to check this and the island needs to change this policy. All in all- small stuff as remarks, we had an amazing time and I would recommend the hotel as a good place in Dhigurah.

    Very new and modern. Close to the jetty. As the island is not big, you can get anywhere also by foot. Bikini beach is at 15 min walk, you can enjoy the walk to there passing the small jungle trees.

    The hotel is very well located, close to the port and to center of Island, the owner is super nice and helpful, the rooms are nice and spacious. The only thing you have to know, there is no common area or restaurant so if you want to eat something you have to eat out.

    Room next to the reception is noisy.

    The best accommodation out of 5 guesthouses we stayed in the Maldives. Modern, clean, comfortable. Loved the minimalistic but fashionable interior in Italian style. Good breakfast at the hotel across the street. Wifi connection is also fine.

Warm, friendly, professionals who go out of their way time and again to make sure our time and stay at Dhigurah was comfortable, enjoyable and exceptional!

    Pleasant place in a central location. I noted that a flatscreen TV was included when booking, as the was a Euro 2024 semi-final during my stay. The TV has yet to be installed and, likewise, breakfast is currently served at the Beach View Cafe 5 minutes away.

    The breakfast selection was simply austere, lacking in opulence or variety. A few minutes' (15) stroll to the bikini beach.

    Exceptional staff, incredibly helpful and courteous. A broad array of excursions available. The hotel is conveniently situated in close proximity to a superbly equipped store. Immaculate rooms, tastefully adorned.
