Hotéis em Fihalhohi

This is an amazing privately owned island, which is a gem of a find. If you want calmness, relaxation and great service, then this is the place to go. This is our second visit and would happily come back again. The island has lovey, clean rooms and does not have crazy numbers of people, so at meal times, the beaches are deserted. The island offers some great snorkel trips but i would advise you to be strong swimmers (the sea can be rough and many of the trips are in very deep water, as you jump into the sea from a boat). The views around the island are breathtaking and the food is awesome (they also cater for vegan/lactose intolerance and gluten intolerance) vegetarian food was a little sp****, but we ate vegan at lot of the time, which we still lovely but can get a little boring due to limited options, especially when you see all the other delights on offer, but are not vegetarian (including cakes etc) The service was outstanding, the staff could not do any more for us. There was a wide range of visitors from all sorts of countries (a large proportion of German/Russian people) the library was more geared towards German, which suggests the larger number of visitors were probably from there. We stuck to our Amazon Kindles, so didn’t need the library anyway. There were also options to hire boats, jet skis and snorkels if you needed them, plus the possibility of gaining a full PADI diving license for anyone who wanted to do it (all had extra costs). There was a little shop on the island, but it is expensive for essentials (such as snorkels or suntan lotion) because it all has to be imported in, which is understandable. Therefore, make sure you take whatever items you need with you. If you want to experience the Maldives without the commercial craziness or the major corporation chain aspect, this is a great island to visit.

Amazing stay! First I’d like to say all of the staff are excellent, so helpful, friendly and well mannered. They make you feel very welcome. On this note a special thank you to Mr. Roshan who went above our expectations and also Mr. Bibo who is the entertainer, we took some zumba and water aerobics class and he was so much fun! Second, the nature here is amazing! If you enjoy snorkeling try swimming right next to the restaurant, there is some beautiful corals full of fish, the occasional shark (not dangerous i promise) Third, cleaning staff were amazing our room was always kept tidy. Food was also very good, alot of variety and options! We cant wait to come back, Diego & Marina

We stayed in the hotel with the room with the swimming pool, this one was very good but the service leaves something to be desired. The hotel contains 3 islands, it is not possible to eat on another island than ours compared to the buffet and the prices of the restaurants are overpriced. When it comes to activities, nothing is free, plan a big activity budget (scuba diving at $350 per person, for example), on the positive side, you will find 4 swimming pools, 2 of which are adults only. As for our ”referent” he was totally absent and useless we had to go to the reception to ask for everything and anything like for Check out for example. However the rest of the staff was very pleasant throughout the stay and really took care of us. It's a little corner of paradise in which we were able to see magnificent baby sharks and a fish aquarium but if we had to come back it wouldn't be here. (Breakfast in the pool to avoid)

Our company gave us 10 days holiday and our last hotel destination was Marina Bay Retreat and Spa. I and my other 5 colleagues was amazed with the services they have specially diving and snorkeling in Guraidhoo Island. The Hotel is located in front of the beach and if we only know we would have not stayed in a water villa resort. The new manager of Marina Bay is pretty amazing. I feel like I was in Boracay island since the new manager is from the Philippines. He shared his vision to the hotel and well enough, he showed us the real customer service and the value of money we spend during our stay! Definitely we will comeback here!

+ delicious breakfast: we requested vegan (fruit, veg curry, roshi, bread) and traditional Maldivian (mashuni roshi) + immaculately clean + air con + good wifi + bottled water provided every day + the host is very polite and a beautiful person. He’s happy to organise anything for you: speedboat in and out of the island, takeaway food, excursions. We felt like at home, with dad looking after us 😊 + only a few steps to the bikini beach - there was nothing we didn’t like. PS: if you’re island hoping, make sure you visit the stunning small island of Fulidhoo (our favourite out of Guraidhoo, Gulhi, Fulidhoo, Hulumalle & Diffushi).

We arrived very late to Male. Due to Ramadan, our pre-booked speedboat was cancelled, so I asked Ilham to help us with arranging speedboat transfer. He did his best plus he was waiting for us at the airport and guided us to Guraidhoo island. From La Isla Tropica they arranged a mini van for our luggages. Rohan is a very kind person, I have never expected such hospitality and support. He help us in everything: getting medicine to the hurt shoulder, offering great suncream, preparing takeaway breakfast and organizing boat trip. Whatever we needed: he was always there to help. I cannot thank him enough for his great personality. We all like the breakfast and dinner, which were tasty and more than enough :) I would defienetly like to return, we had gorgeous 6days in La Isla Tropica and in Guraidhoo.

There is a lot of hotel choice in the Maldives, but there is something quite unique about Cocoa Island and that’s the feeling of being somewhere with people whom love to live and work there. There is a real sense of community in the staff and as per some of the other reviews, several have been there for over a decade. Although we were first time visitors, it was clear that many people had stayed and returned time and time again and felt they had a relationship with the staff. This was really unique for a hotel we felt. By far the physical best element of the island is the snorkelling straight from your room onto one of 3 private reefs. From here we saw reef shark, sting ray and a huge array of fish, this felt like a special to have this the moment you wake up at your disposal. Cocoa island is small and has a boutique feel. If you want to escape the crowds and have your trip feel a bit more bespoke than mass tourism, cocoa is a good option for you. If you want busy evenings and endless activities or entertainment the maybe not. It does just have one restaurant and one bar, but that should not deter your choosing this hotel, the variety on the menu/menus are vast and changes everyday in some way, with the themed set menu evenings additional to this, there is no need to get bored of the food, quite the opposite. The staff and chefs are also very varied in their skill and accommodating to your needs. The food is high quality, and masterfully executed every night, we could not fault it along with the huge array of drinks options, far beyond what you would expect from a resort of this size. Some of the best cocktails we’ve had. Overall, we would echo other reviews to say don’t come at CNY or half term if you want total peace and quiet, but this isn’t a particularly family orientated place, so as long as you are out of those main seasons it should be beautifully peaceful. The 45 min transfer by boat is convenient and easy compared to waiting for a seaplane. We would highly recommend.

The scenery in the Maldives hotel is naturally nothing to say The booked water villas are generally good, But there are a few points that make me feel the shortcomings of 3500/night Let me talk about the advantages first: 1 The Chinese service of the Malaysian brother who checked in at the hotel was very kind and friendly, so he helped me book dinner, birthday cake and late check-out! 2 The guest room redecorated the room after learning about my husband’s birthday 3Dinner restaurant staff gave my husband a birthday cake and music, thank you very much Next, let’s talk about the sanitation of five-star hotels 1 Countless flies on our food while we were having breakfast, indescribable and very uncomfortable 2 I don't understand that dinner does not contain alcohol, but at least a few options are needed.
