Biyadhoo Island Resort

Its fine for a cheap and basic resort, the rooms are outdated with old style furniture and bathroom has 1980's style but all clean and bed was comfortable. Beach/sea area is very good and plenty of fish to see right on the beach including baby sharks. You can walk/swim to the coral 200M away with plenty more fish ( we saw adult shark and turtle ). Most of the staff don't smile and some are even rude but the restaurant manager was very good as to providing us with meals with special dietary requirements. Main desk is not very forward in providing general information about the resort. No real view of the sea from the rooms as its obscured by trees and shrubs. ( If you're not too worried about the marine life then the Caribbean is better value for money )

This is a solid 3 star resort. It's not fancy but it has everything you need at an amazing price for the Maldives. The staff are really helpfull and friendly. There are a lot of food choices, they may not all be your taste but you can definately find something to satisfy your hunger. The stand out of this resort is the house reef, we saw turtles, eagle Rays, moray eels and an amazing array of fish. The bar prices are not as outrageous as some resorts in the Maldives, nor are their tours. I highly recommend their Dolphin and Manta Ray tour. Manta Rays are hard to find but it is worth it to be in the water with the Dolphins. We would definately visit this well priced and friendly resort again.

We were the only Americans, most others were Italian, German or other Europeans. The reef was amazing. We saw several turtles, one very large free swimming moray eel, two eagle rays, 3 octopus one of which changed color as it moved up the wall and more just beautiful reef fish then we have seen at one place in many years of diving. Food was good. It was very quiet and peaceful

This is the most idealick, natural getaway I have ever found. I am a diver which increases the feeling of paradise for me but, just laying on top of the with my snorkel I could see a marine fish tank with rays, and turtles included. The water is warm and blue, lined with white sand and palm trees. This is everyone's idea of a desert Island. Boat trips are expensive but worth the extra money

Good food with large choice. Staff very good. Beach close to room & wonderful snorkelling 100 yards from beach.

Amazing island wit h white sands and tropical plants. The reef was brilliant so full of colourful fish and easy to swim out to and around. Kept me totally entertained for the 10 days I was there. Swam with a turtle, baby reef sharks and multiple different types of fish. Room was always kept clean and was spacious. It did need updating though it had an old interior but that was a minor point. Food was so good. Curry option every day or pasta or fish with different themes. Loads of lovely fruit and cakes. The star was the white sand beach and the snorkelling. It was amazing. Such a beautiful place. Recommend it. Not a place to go if you are after luxury accommodation but the place to go for the sand and sea.

This is an old resort and very dated, room in blocks of 16 on two floors. Dinning room very dark with set tables, buffet style food not much choice or great quality. Food you pay for is slightly better. Mosquitos all over the island, still got bitten after using Deet spray. We picked this island specifically for diving and house reef so if this is not your thing then maybe choose another island. Bar and staff great and no silly rules about taking drinks to the beach they give you cans. Sea life here is amazing with turtles sharks on the house reef and even dolphins. The resort needs a serious update.

Gorgeous island, wonderful snorkeling, beautiful beach. The hotel was being renovated during our stay so hopefully they will upgrade the bathrooms. Room was perfectly comfortable just very old. The staff were charming and helpful. Take mozzie spray! The food was good to average, plenty of choice. We were on all inclusive plan and loved the snorkeling and sunset fishing that are included. Highly recommend the dolphin trip, watching them spin just in front of the boat at sunset was magical.

This was my second visit to Biyadhoo and it was just as good this time as last. It is a basic and relaxed island, not an upmarket, exclusive one so if you want luxury, Biyadhoo isn't for you. If you want an authentic, relaxed holiday in the Maldives with white sandy beaches, turquoise water and fantastic sea life, with attentive staff, then you won't go wrong here. I visited alone, leaving my husband at home this year in order to learn to dive. Ialways felt totally safe and my husband was confident of my safety also. The food is mostly fish and curries; but there is always at least one 'continental dish' to choose from, and is very good quality. The staff are all very friendly and professional. All the rooms are basic, and the fixtures are functional, not luxurious but they are clean, comfortable, air conditioned and the showers are hot. The room staff clean twice a day to ensure there isn't even a grain of sand on the floor. The snorkelling is fantastic and the diving is equally wonderful. Learning to dive on this visit, I found the dive staff excellent. The sunrise rooms are on the East of the island, the sunset rooms on the West (obviously) but the sunset ones are more comfortable as they have more of a breeze. I am certain to visit again in the future and would be happy to recommend Biyadhoo to friends, family and strangers.

Everything was above expectation food was great , staff really helpful n friendly . Had a great stay ..
