Our stay in the Maldives was truly unforgettable. The room was beautiful, spacious, and equipped with everything we needed for a perfect vacation. The food was absolutely delicious with plenty of great options every day. What impressed us the most was the warm hospitality — all the staff were incredibly friendly and always smiling, which made us feel so welcomed throughout our stay. One of the best experiences was seeing sharks and colorful fish swimming right in front of our villa. It felt like living in a dream. We came here to truly relax, and this resort was the perfect place for that — peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by nature. At the same time, there were plenty of water activities and equipment available to enjoy. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable Maldives getaway!

I absolutely loved everything. The food was varied, a very good selection, and probably the most delicious food I've ever had in a hotel. The staff is always friendly and helpful. We stayed in a white overwater villa. It was very cozy and spacious. Cleaning was done every day, and it was very clean. I'd say it was impeccable. The only thing I missed were hotel slippers. The reef is beautiful; we saw sharks four times and a stingray once. The sea and beaches are very beautiful. Transfer to the hotel from the airport costs $110 per person by speedboat roundtrip. We didn't know this, but keep in mind that half-board guests don't get free drinks, not even water. Drinks cost from 2/3 dollars and up. So, you'll have to pay for drinks separately, whether alcoholic or soft. Even water is not free.

I stayed at Thulhagiri Island Resort for 2 nights and 3 days, spending one night in a Water Villa and one night in a Beach Villa. Overall, it was a very nice experience. To be honest, I personally found the Beach Villa more enjoyable because there is more space and more things to do around it. The villa itself is bigger and comes with a beautiful open-style washroom, which gives a true island feeling. The beach area in front of the villa is also great for relaxing, walking, and swimming. The Water Villa was a good experience for at least one night. The room size was medium but comfortable, and the view of the ocean is amazing. However, when you go down into the water, there is no lifeguard or direct safety supervision, so you enter the water at your own risk. While snorkeling around the villa, we saw stingrays, baby sharks, and many colorful fish, which was actually very exciting. Initially, we had an issue with the room location. Our Water Villa was the last one on the jetty, and the area had a lot of coral reef, which made it difficult to stand or move in the water. I raised this concern with the staff, and they were very helpful and supportive. They quickly assisted us and arranged a room change, which shows that the resort staff truly care about their guests and try their best to solve problems. One of the best activities in the resort is snorkeling. You can rent a snorkeling kit for around $7, and it is absolutely worth it. The house reef around the island is beautiful, and you can easily spend hours enjoying the clear water and marine life. Another highlight of the resort is the food. The buffet offers very delicious continental dishes, and the quality and taste were excellent. There is a good variety of meals, and everything is well prepared. The only thing to keep in mind is that the restaurant is very strict with timing. Once the buffet timing ends, they close it, so if you arrive late you might miss your meal. The island itself is very clean, peaceful, and well maintained, with clear turquoise water and soft white sand. It is a perfect place for relaxation, honeymoon trips, or couples who want a quiet getaway. The resort also offers activities like diving, snorkeling, island walks, and water sports if you want to stay active during your stay. Another big advantage is the location. The resort is very close to the airport, and it takes only around 20 minutes by speedboat, which makes the transfer very convenient compared to resorts that require seaplane transfers. Overall, I would definitely recommend Thulhagiri Island Resort if you are planning a trip to the Maldives. It offers beautiful scenery, good service, amazing marine life, and excellent food, making it a great place for a short island getaway.

The island is beautiful, well kept with lots of greenery and the bungalows are really charming and cozy. The staff we dealt with was very friendly and professional. The only downside is the transfer: at $55 per person per way for a 15-minute boat ride, the wait at the airport can be surprisingly long depending on your arrival time (2 hour wait in our case), which is disappointing given the price. While we really enjoyed our stay, we were glad to have spent most of our holiday on local islands, which are even more beautiful, far more authentic, and full of character.
