VIOLET INN

Cute guesthouse on Dharavandhoo. Everything on the island is walkable, and Violet Inn is never more than a short walk to anywhere. Staff were super helpful, especially in helping us with the speedboat transfer when our flight was delayed, and also for organising day trips. We'll definitely be back during manta ray season!

We stayed for 4 days 4 nights at Violet Inn. Arrived via 40 minute domestic flight. Was only sunny on our first day and rained on our entire stay but the rain did not discourage us. The hotel itself can do with a number of refurbishment / maintenance work but we did not mind. There is coffee making facilities, filtered water, and washing machine to wash dirty clothes. Though the sun would have provided better lighting to our photos but the experience of having to swim with the mantas is just surreal. Also enjoyed that we were the only guests in the inn so we had the whole place to ourselves. We were fullboard so we had breakfast, lunch and dinner included in our package. The food was served in the nearby restaurant which was about 200m walk. I loved Maldivian food! There is also a nearby Bikini Beach. We had the boat to ourselves on our first 2 days and shared with guests from other hotel on our last day and my oh my. I could just snorkel with the mantas ALL DAY in fact, I enjoyed it so much, I would like to go back to just swim with the mantas again! Afoo from Violet Inn has been very helpful along with Husento who was our tour guide to Hanifaru.

This was my second stay at the Violet Inn snd I am looking forward to my third. I go to Dharavandhoo for diving and iolet Inn is the perfect place to stay. Clean, friendly, and very comfortable at a very reasonable price. Mubeen the Inn managee is super accomodating and will go out of his way to make sure your stay is great. The Inn is walking distance to the boats and restaurants on the island and a perfect location to stay. I will definitelt stay at the Violet Inn when I return to Dharavandhoo!
