Guest Reviews
- tanin (10/5): Nice and comfy - In front of the beach
- Renata (10/5): Eccezionale! - Soggiorno meraviglioso alle Maldive!
La struttura è bella , vicina alla spiaggia , ha un livello di pulizia impeccabile e un comfort ottimo : tutto è a portata di mano .
Spiaggia meravigliosa (bikini -beach) , buon ristorante, bar , mini market e negozietti.
Un plauso speciale va allo staff: sempre presente, disponibile e pronto a soddisfare ogni richiesta con grande professionalità e cortesia. Hanno reso l’esperienza ancora più piacevole occupandosi con efficienza anche dell’organizzazione degli spostamenti.
Nel complesso, un’esperienza fantastica che consiglio assolutamente! Se proprio devo suggerire un piccolo miglioramento, amplierei un po’ la proposta dei dolci a colazione. Ma comunque molto buona e varia !
- Mikalai (9/5): -
- Lady_Kateryna (10/5): - This hotel is true gem 💎 in Dhiffushi. The room is spacious, comfortable beds, enough space for cosmetics in bathroom, shampoo and shower gel have incredible smell, feeling like from Spa.
The restaurant and breakfast is one of the best on the island.
The beach is the most beautiful on the island, like true resort beach - amazing colour of the water, clean beach and water. Staff cares about corals and you can find constructions for growing corals in deeper water. Nothing. Everything is perfect.
- Monika (8/5): Krásna pláž a raje na dosah – s pár nedostatkami - Raňajky boli veľmi dobré. Hotel má výbornú polohu hneď pri pláži, na ktorej sú k dispozícii ležadlá so slnečníkmi a tiež plážové uteráky. Večer do zátoky priplávajú raje a malé žraloky, ktoré sa dajú pozorovať aj z reštaurácie, takže naša dcéra konečne nemala problém pokojne obsedieť pri stole :-). Veľkým plusom je aj možnosť čapovať si v hoteli pitnú vodu. Na ostrove bolo veľmi veľa komárov, ale podľa všetkého je to momentálne problém viacerých lokálnych ostrovov. Pláž tiež nebola veľmi udržiavaná – bola nevyčistená a miestami plná odpadkov. Vo vode navyše zostala rozbitá hojdačka (taká tá fotogenická hojdačka v mori). Ďalšou nevýhodou je neustále prechádzanie lodí pred hotelovou bikini plážou (často len pár metrov od hláv plávajúcich ľudí). Postele boli extrémne nepohodlné, matrace výrazne vyležané. Napriek každodennému upratovaniu nám počas 5 nocí ani raz nevymenili posteľnú bielizeň.

- Giulia (9/5): - La struttura è accogliente e pulita, le stanze molto spaziose, con una grandissima doccia. Vengono forniti anche gli asciugamani per la spiaggia e acqua filtrata gratuitamente. Lo staff è stato gentilissimo e sempre pronto a risolvere qualsiasi evenienza tramite wp, a partire dall’organizzazione del trasferimento in speed boat da e per Malè. La colazione buona, con possibilità di consumarla direttamente con i piedi nella sabbia. Ottimo il mini market presente sotto l’hotel e il bar/ristorante The Kettle, in cui abbiamo sempre cenato. Quanto alla spiaggia, è a pochi metri dalle camere ed è fornita di sdraio e ombrelloni. L’unica pecca è il continuo passaggio di barche (peraltro davvero a pochi metri dalla testa dei bagnanti) davanti alla bikini beach dell’hotel.
- lorenza (7/5): Very nice staff - The area is very close to the best beach on the island Our room at the ground floor was very noisy from 6am and the WiFi wasnt working in the room
- Salvati (10/5): SCELTA PERFETTA ❤️ - La struttura si trova proprio sulla spiaggia più carina di Dhiffushi…uscendo dal mare puoi entrare direttamente in camera a farti una doccia…
L’hotel è estremamente pulito…le camere molto spaziose…il bagno molto curato..In camera c’è aria condizionata ventilatore bollitore frigorifero tutto nuovo e perfettamente funzionante!!
- Giulia (8/5): Un soggiorno con il sorriso - Lo staff super gentile e disponibile per ogni tua esigenza, la spiaggia è riservata per l hotel ed hai a disposizione ombrelloni e sdraio. Colazione buona. La camera standar, Wi-Fi per nulla buono ma negli spazi comuni prende benissimo. Il ristorante dell hotel è il migliore dell’isola Wi-Fi
- Jacek (9/5): Niezapomniany pobyt, świetna obsługa - Przywitano nas bardzo serdecznie. Zaraz po przyjeździe w recepcji podano nam zimne, wilgotne ręczniczki do ochłodzenia się i wytarcia zgrzanej twarzy. Personel bardzo przyjazny i pomocny. Piękna zadbana plaża oraz całe otoczenie wokół hotelu. Pokój przestronny z lodówką, czajnikiem elektrycznym, klimatyzacją i balkonem sprzątany na życzenie. W łazience dostępny żel do mycia i szampon do włosów. Do dyspozycji była kawa, herbata, cukier, śmietanka oraz butelki , które można napełniać woda pitną bez ograniczeń. Wi-Fi działało dobrze zarówno w hotelu jak i na plaży. Opcja - pełne wyżywienie. Śniadanie w formie bufetu; obiad i kolacja serwowane składające się z zupy, drugiego dania i deseru. Wprawdzie menu było trochę monotonne, ale dania przygotowane były estetycznie i smaczne. Podaną przy rezerwacji cenę za łódź z Male do Dhiffushi hotel zmienił na wyższą, kiedy byliśmy już na miejscu.
- Giacomo Stefano (7/5): Nel complesso ci siamo trovati bene! Ci sono alcune cose che si potrebbero migliorare come il servizio ristorante e la v - Posizione eccellente Posizione camera a fianco della reception
- Fiona (8/5): -
- Elisa (8/5): Ottimo soggiorno - L’hotel gode di una posizione davanti alla bikini beach più bella di dhiffushi. Personale sempre disponibile per aiutarti e cortese. Buffet per la colazione scarso di pietanze europee e prettamente colazione salata. Camere pulite una volta al giorno, ma il cambio asciugamani non avviene ogni giorno ma ogni 3 e gli asciugamani puliti sono spesso macchiati così come le lenzuola. Ottima posizione il bar sulla spiaggia, cibo discreto, ma sono molto molto lenti nel servirti il cibo. Minimarket con tutto il necessario. Wi-Fi buono, la rete prende anche in spiaggia. Acqua potabile disponibile gratuitamente in hotel h24. Quello che migliorerei è la varietà e la qualità del buffet e la pulizia della biancheria.

- OLIVIER (8/5): - Personnel très aimable, plage à proximité, nombreuses activités proposées. NA
- Riccardo (9/5): Siamo stati bene, la stanza aveva una vista mozzafiato e svegliarsi guardando l’oceano è impagabile - Posizione, vista sul mare, ampiezza della camera, terrazzo, staff disponibile, acqua potabile gratuita Aria condizionata non funzionante
- Roxana Mihaela (10/5): - Struttura semplice ma graziosa, con camere spaziose, dotata di ristorante adiacente e bar fronte mare. Un ringraziamento speciale a tutto lo staff Tash, Cristi, Sobei (per il jet d’acqua) che ha soddisfatto ogni nostra richiesta. Bella anche la spiaggia davanti (anche se purtroppo ci passano tutte le imbarcazioni quindi forse consiglierei la spiaggia dall’altro lato dell’isola) dotata di lettini e ombrelloni. Il cibo poi è stato davvero ottimo (essendoci poca gente non c’era il buffet ma decidevano loro cosa servirti) Magari integrerei una smart tv (Netflix ecc) in quanto il Wi-Fi non prende abbastanza per connettersi a YouTube
- Severino Paolo (8/5): - Tutto esci dall'hotel e sei in spiaggia Arredamento un po antiquato
- domenico davide (10/5): Semplicemente fantastico - Fantastico, Non si poteva scegliere di meglio.
Staff gentilissimo e sempre a disposizione per risolvere le nostre esigenze (eravamo con un bimbo piccolo).
Struttura accogliente di fronte alla spiaggia più bella dell'isola.
Consigliato .
- manolo (9/5): Dhiffushiano - Struttura molto carina,accogliente e pulita(passano più volte durante la giornata a pulire le scale ecc).Posizione forse la più bella dell’isola(ma c’è un problema,che dopo menzionerò).Ci sono venuti a prendere al porto che comunque dista 200 metri dalla guest house.Si mangia discretamente,noi abbiamo fatto la mezza pensione,hanno un mini market e bar ristorante di loro gestione,insomma non manca nulla. Dicevo che posizione bella ma davanti la spiaggia a 10 metri,ci passino i motoscafi che vanno a Malè e che partono per le escursioni,un po’ disturba,inoltre per le organizzazioni dell’escursioni non sono ben organizzati
- PAOLO (10/5): - Ottima posizione staff molto gentile Per ora va bene così torneremo purtroppo speriamo di non trovare troppi cinesi spiace dirlo ma sono molto maleducati
- Ramona (10/5): Un sogno !! - La posizione della struttura è ottima, a due passi dalla bikini beach. La camera grande e confortevole. I ragazzi dello staff gentili e disponibili.. Sicuramente lo consiglio!!!! Il mangiare è buono ma per 10 giorni abbiamo mangiato più o meno le stesse cose.
Il buffet con il minimo indispensabile, poca scelta e poca frutta ( o quasi non pervenuta).
I primi giorni cena servita con una zuppa e un piatto misto e gli altri giorni buffet.
Mezz'ora prima della fine dell' orario del buffet non veniva già più rifornito.
- Manola (8/5): Very good - Good position, the new cafè on the beach Is very nice, kind staff
- Lubna (9/5): Best location for a beach stay ... - Lovely environment and staff are so friendly and helpful.
Can improve the quality of food.
- Maria (8/5): Very good - Good location near the beach. You get a sun lounger and umbrella on the beach and a beach towel.
We got a transfer from a boat with a buggy.
The manager helped us with booking a boat to Malé.
You have an electric kettle in the toom and water were brought from the cleaning service in the room.
You can change money with a good exchange rate, if the money are available on the reception. It's a good hotel in overall. But some small things are annoying.
We arrive at 14:30 and asked for a baby bed (which was also already ordered via booking and we sent a reminder about it before), but we got it only at 19:00, after i asked two times more and said that my daughter should sleep now.
I asked a manager in the first day, if everything OK with the payment (they received it via booking). He told me that he will checked and prepare the bill in the evening. It didn't happen and I got the outstanding sum only on the evening before departure after two reminders (but it's only an environmental tax, I got get why it was a problem).
Sometimes they don't have a beach towels, if it's rainy in the night before and they don't warned you about it, when you give your old one in the evening back.
The holders at the breakfast buffet are really small and we should ask to fill cereals / a cake or fruit each time, we come there as some plates were empty. But at least the waitresses fill everything what we asked.
- Sarwar (3/5): Poor - Location Services
House keeping
Breakfast
- Adam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Manola (9/5): Superb -
- Predrag (9/5): Beautiful Maldives - The hotel is perfectly situated on the island's largest beach, offering a clean and well-kept environment. The food is delicious, and the staff is always smiling, friendly, and eager to assist.
We want to give a special thanks to Malika, who organized a speedboat transfer for us outside of the regular schedule, both to and from the island.
If you're considering staying on Dhiffushi Island, this hotel provides everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. None
- Hassan (7/5): Good -
- luis (10/5): - Only steps from an amazing beach and quiet
- Eduardo (8/5): Good value for money - The location, meals and staff The TV didn’t work. The bathroom had no toiletries.
- Tobias (10/5): 10/10 Service - 10/10 Customer Service. The picked us up one the port...without us even asking! They made early and late checkin / checkout possible with 0 problems. Organizing an off scheduled boat was also possible. If every Hotel would have this service? Way different world. I would book the hotel again 😁 Our Room was not that good isolated for noices, so we could hear sometimes stuff from outside
- Robert (4/5): My stay was not what I expected, everything was all about the money, the service was disappointing. - I liked the location of the hotel as it was a prime location. Unfortunately that is the only thing that I did like. The management of the hotel was poor, adding funds to a transfer to the airport. Housekeeping also came very late every day to clean room. You have to ask continuously for fresh towels and linen. and toiletries. Always have to ask for everything to be done. Breakfast was basically finished at 7:30 am in the morning. Guests felt like they were a second thought or a priority. Unfriendly and unmanaged staff.
- Joanna (9/5): Superb -
- Aldo (9/5): Superb - Facilities are great. Food is also some of the cleanest in all local islands however it is not a buffet
- Sanja (10/5): Great!! - The great location, staff is excellent, friendly. The breakfast quite good. Rooms are cleaned every day 😊 maybe the furniture should be renovated a bit
- Manola (10/5): Exceptional -
- TOM (10/5): Idyllic beach hotel in Dhiffushi - This is a newish hotel, great wifi, outstanding staff, very helpful, lovely beach, with the hotel's restaurant The Kettle having great breakfast and varied menu.
- Sinziana (9/5): Overall it was a really lovely and comfortable stay. - The location of the hotel is excellent, for sure one of the best on the island, with direct access to a very well maintained beach and a great small snorkeling spot (a small wreck with lots of fish). At night sting rays and small sharks are coming into the bay quite close to the shore, which is a very rare and special experience.
The rooms are spacious and well equipped. The furniture is a bit dated but still quite functional. We stayed for one night in a room on the ground floor facing the village but upon our request the manager transferred us to a first floor sea facing room which was much brighter and had a really great view from the balcony.
The staff was really nice and helpful and resolved fast all the minor issues we had. Some of the towels were not in a good shape but the staff replaced them immediately when we asked. There is a smell in the bathroom when the shower is turned on, but I presume this is a common thing on the entire island.
- Manola (10/5): Exceptional - Everything: location, staff, beach, excursions
- Ramkumar (9/5): I would definitely recommend this property to others because it’s value for money - Very clean, on the beach, very courteous staff, service minded staff N/A
- Vijeesh (9/5): The place exceeded our expectations for sure - Excellent property on a beautiful island
Courteous & helpful staff!
Special mentions for Thejas who met us on the boat and arranged pretty much everything for us. Mallika welcomed us and showed us all over the property and got us going.
Naveen at the restaurant was great with service, frankly all the girls were.
Masood and Sahu for taking us on the most memorable coral garden snorkel. It felt like a dream! Nothing.. Everything was great
- Titan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mariola (7/5): very nice hotel - 3 stars but staff aspiring for Private Island type of hotel service but only with tips. service was no - right at the beach and good size rooms with all you need to feel comfortable. The staff is very helpful and happy to help but few did not understand English or had very basic knowledge. Staff were trying to give us a totally different room that we have reserved and we had to wait few hours for our room. Bell Boy was very dissatisfied and sighing when did not get any tip despite not carrying our luggage. he insisted to take us to our room and insisted on going in. we were tired and wanted to have some privacy and did not want him coming in… he sighed and flipped his eyes… we would Normally tip for any assistance we required but this was very not on… staff were aspiring for a private island hotel standard but weren’t nowhere near with their service… we were made to wait for 2 hours despite arriving 2 hours after check in time…
- Elijah (10/5): Amazing stay - The Location was good and you can rent snorkeling equipment and do snorkeling from the hotel's beach itself. There were less options in the buffet.
- Branislav (9/5): Superb - Great location - probably the best in Dhiffushi. We stayed at the hotel 7 days but wish to have more time and stay longer. Relaxing atmosphere and comfortable facilities. Very helpful hotel staff. Nothing.
- Viktor (8/5): Very good - The transfers was smooth - great support from the hotel. A person wait for you at the airport and once you reach the island (to help with luggage).
Great location. Right next to a beatuful beach. Clean beach towels are provided every day. Sunbeds and umbrellas are also provided - free of charge. This seems to be the main tourist area at the island. It's very lifely with plenty of restaurants, there is also a grocery store.
Breakfast is fine. Coffee is good.
Dinner is delicious. Not a lot of options, but all of them are well prepared and nice.
We explore the whole island beaches/hotels. As overall I think it's one of the best hotels/guest houses of the island ! The check-in was slow. We wait for more then 2 hours (besides being told that our room will be ready in 30 mins).
The kettle and safe box at the room were not working. We request such, but did not receive a new safe box.
Breakfast lacks fresh fruit and vegetables.
We had lunch on the menu at the hotel restaurant few times. Be prepared for a long wait. Everything happens really slow. Even drinks came 15-20mins after you order.
- Stephen (10/5): fantastic location with great, friendly staff - the property was as described … fantastic location .. the staff were great …really helpful, nothing too much trouble and gave Rashu Hiyaa a family feel .. run by Krishan with Olga they really helped us while we were there with outings etc .. the beach is fantastic and again the staff so helpful with loungers etc .. The Kettle was great for breakfast and Evening meal buffet .. we would love to visit again … it’s in our plans as we were so sad to leave … Male airport to the island was also arranged by Krishan by speedboat ferry with no problems … we would definitely recommend this location nothing
- Ivalin (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great. Friendly staff, great place for holiday.
- Svante (10/5): Rashu hiyaa är klart värt ett besök! - Vi hade tre jättebra dagar på hotellet. Bra service och trevligt bemötande från all personal. Bra storlek på rummet. Rent och fräscht. Nära stranden.
- Vedana (10/5): Exceptional - Everything. Location, staff, food, services, rooms, cleanness, beds. Specially would like to thank the Administrator Mr. Krish, Miss Olga, Rajkumar, Naveen (restaurant), you guys made our vacation memorable. Keep it up and see you soon.
- Karyn (8/5): Very good - Very helpful staff, best location in Dhiffushi
- Sabrina (10/5): Excellent - It’s absolutely the best hotel on the island .Very friendly staff, excellent service, cleanliness, best beach and top location . Delicious food from the menu (recommend their pizzas) ,maybe not that much choice as at the other hotels but it’s much more delicious, less oily and faster served . Very good administration, they quickly help in any matters (booking tickets, organizing tours). We were also kindly provided with all the necessary snorkeling equipment free of charge.
- Donato (2/5): - E' andato male dal momento del check-in
1. Arrivati al porto nessuno é venuto a prenderci, quando ci avevano chiesto tutte le info
2. arrivati per il check-in, ci hanno fatto vedere dove era il ristorante e non hanno risposto alle nostre domande
3. come funzionava per i lettini e l'ombrellone lo abbiamo scoperto da soli in spiaggia grazie ad altri turisti
4. il secondo giorno durante la colazione ho chiesto un espresso e non mi é stato fatto perché si doveva pagare; ho avuto una discussione con il responsabile su: "come si permette un loro dipendente di pensare che io non me lo possa permettere e non possa pagare" ma nessuna scusa data.
5. il quarto giorno scopriamo che la camera non é stata pulita perché non abbiamo lasciato la chiave alla reception, ma non l'abbiamo mai lasciata nei giorni precedenti quindi? Chiedo come mai e dal banco della reception tirano fuori un cartello con il quale vi era scritto così, ma se non l'avessi chiesto nessuna l'aveva esposto prima; comunque erano le le 16.40 chiedo se é possibile avere la camera pulita lasciando le chiavi "adesso", il responsabile mi dice di se e poi quando ritorniamo verso le 18.30 scopriamo che la stanza non é stata pulita perché a suo detto il personale per pulirla non era più presente in Hotel, e qui mi domando, essendo un responsabile, sai o no quali sono i turni di lavoro dei dipendenti? Neanche gli asciugamani puliti ci hanno dato
Che dire? cambiate il personale alla reception sarebbe meglio
- Oana (10/5): Awesome - Rashu Hiyaa exceeded my expectations! Great hotel on the beach, lovely staff, special thanks to Krishan and Olga, they were always very helpful and answered to all our requests from transfer from and to the airport to local trips and everything else. It was my birthday during my stay there and they were so kind to bring me a cake with Happy Birthday, I really appreciated it. Also, they organized a lovely Gala Dinner on the New Years Eve with disco on the beach. Spent 11 nights there and would have stayed more. Will definitely return.
- Lawrance (9/5): Superb -
- Maulik (8/5): overall great trip - great location and good staff room allocation was not great and not much privacy
- Vishnu (9/5): pleasant stay - it’s beach front and location is awesome. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout the stay. Breakfast is very limited and No Indian food
- Haseeb (10/5): Exceptional -
- Inderjit (10/5): Exceptional -
- C (9/5): Superb - Everything was very good
- J.Jesus (10/5): - I stay for 7 nights and I have good service people very friendly and the reception was very helpful.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - El personal lo mejor, aunque se nota que todavía no están al nivel de calidad que tendrían que tener. Como es normal en muchos países todo se lo toman con mucha calma, pero cuando tienes una incidencia la resuelven con efectividad. Nivel altísimo de limpieza y desajustes soportables con un poco de paciencia.
- Alex (10/5): Идеальное расположение - В целом нам все понравилось. Предраться действительно не к чему.
В отеле принимают только доллары, евро. Руфии не принимают. Номер брали без завтраков. И совершенно не пожалели. Мы или не ели или ходили в другое кафе не далеко от отеля. Там в меню в цене были уже внесены налоги. Кафе на берегу. Название из цифр. Один раз пришли на ужин в ресторан. Ни в какую не хотели давать меню. Ибо. 15$ и шведский (+22% они потом напомнят) стол на человека. В общем один раз допросились меню. Из 9 заказанных пунктов не было 7. Блюда были простыми для страны где добывают морепродукты. Том ям например. От ресторана в общем не в восторге. Он кстати переехал в отдельное здание.
Очень не понравилось то что вместе с туристическим налогом (3$ с человека за сутки) взяли 1$ за бронь через хотелс. Почему так объяснить не смогли.
Номера чистые. Убирают по требованию. В душе есть мыльница. Но мыла нет)
Фотографии отеля в целом соответствуют действительности. Только уже все не такое яркое.
Есть джакузи за 25$ в час. Бесплатный настрольный футбол и пин-понг. Есть прокат велосипедов. К концу нашего отпускк остался только один детский. Взлослых нет.
Трансфер от паромного причала до отеля. С Мале или аэропорта платишь сам. Но они подскажут как.
В целом все очень добрые и отзывчивые. На мой взгляд лучшее расположение отеля на острове. Не далеко есть пляж. Там течение дикое и иногда приплывает мусор. Чайные пакетики например. С другой стороны острова есть замечательные 2 пляжа. Отдыхали там.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Insgesamt eine schöne Anlage. Es wird sehr auf Sauberkeit geachtet.
Personal freundlich, immer bemüht behilflich zu sein.
Es wird zur Zeit angebaut, man bekommt es auch mit, was ein bischen stört. Aber Baustellen sind in der Regel nicht ewig.
- LiliyaVdovina (8/5): - This is small but comfortable butik guest house, very friendly staff,very clean!
- Paula (8/5): - The hotel was clean and the staff was super friendly and helpfull. The food on the restaurands buffet was ok, breakfast was a little dissapointing needed more fruits/vegetables and variaty.
- Mohammed (8/5): Best hotel on the island - Arguably the best hotel on this quaint little island community. Staff try very hard to make sure guests are comfortable and service levels are high. Location is the best and beach is so beautiful and secluded. Recommended to a budget traveler who wants to have family fun.
- Arturo (10/5): The Best in Dhiffushi - The best place in Dhiffushi!

- Tapez40 (10/5): Soggiorno ottimo nessuna pecca per il Personale - Ottima struttura con personale molto disponibile e rispettoso, posizione fantastica e sabbia molto fine. L'unico piccolo inconveniente è il servizio Cucina dell'Hotel che non dispone di uno Cheff all'altezza della cucina internazionale e predilige dei piatti sempre cucina mista asiatica e locale, Per poter mangiare una bella grigliata di pesce, visto l'aspettativa della Location, sono stato costretto a cambiare ristorante, dove economicamente solo una differenza di un paio di dollari, presentavano una cucina ricca, varia e Internazionale. Penso che cambiando lo Cheff l'albergo potrebbe arrivare anche a 9.9 come votazione finale.
N.B. << Non è stata solo una mia impressione per la cucina, tanto che mi incontravo con altri ospiti dell'Hotel di varie nazionalità, nell'altro ristorante e tutti dicevano la stessa cosa e in più segnalavano che nel Hotel Rashu Hiyaa nella sala ristorante vi era poca luce.>>>
- Maria (10/5): Very nice hotel and very nice people. Everything w - I will came back. I love it. Nice food.close to the beautiful beach. And very kind people
- Sheila (10/5): The best service in all of Dhiffushi - We had such a great stay in Dhiffushi. We wanted to experience local island life without the typical resort setting, and this place went above and beyond.
The front desk staff was so pleasant and helpful. Jahid, always had a smile on his face and went out of his way to answer questions or accompany us if needes.
The restaurant staff was always polite. Sai Babu, prepared the most beautiful outdoor beach dinner for us. It was so breathtaking.
The beach is a stroll away. It was beautiful, clean, and had a Dhiffushi water sports counter available. Movich, the guy who heads this business, helped arrange a wonderful sand bank excursion with umbrellas, beach chairs, and a delicious lunch. Luckily we had the sand bank all to ourselves. It was so pristine and beautiful!
Do all your activities on Dhiffushi! The other resorts are very overpriced! There are a few souvenirs shops and again, it's better to buy here.
We did fishing here too and caught plenty of white and red snapper. The restaurant will cook your catch for a nominal fee.
If you're looking to relax by the beach, are not expecting a resort style food spread, but generally good food, and want to fish, see dolphins, jet ski, hire a photographer (for a pvt photo shoot), visit a sandbank, experience true island life, then Dhiffushi is perfect! There is lots of construction on the island, and unfortunately areas around the island can be a bit dirty w debris, but at Rashu Hiyaa itself, it was great! Thank you!
- Suria (10/5): Highly recommended - It was a 4D3N stay. The room was very clean and in a good condition. We stayed in a superior double room and it is huge. The toilet comes with a jacuzzi. I feel it would be better if it has a roof covering the jacuzzi because when it rains, we couldn't enjoy the jacuzzi. There were a variety of foods at their in-house restaurant but breakfast menu can be improved. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Overall, me & husband had a wonderful stay at Rashu Hiyaa. Highly recommended.
- Bernd (8/5): A nice little Gem - Although the island is very small (just one km in length and 200 m large) it is quite charming and a good choice if you want to have a quiet holiday. The mosque is not close, so you can sleep through the night. Dhiffushi used to be - and still is - a fishing island, but besides the 5 or so hotels present, there are about another 10 to be built. Our advice would be to go there before that happens. With 15 hotels, the beaches may get a little crowded, especially during peak season. You can get to the island by local ferry from Male for 1.5 USD one way (3.25 hrs), so no need to fork out 300 $ for the speed boat.(40 min). The staff at the hotel are very friendly and helpful and made our stay even more memorable. You can snorkel from the beach to two concrete blocks and the amount of underwater fauna is amazing: trigger fish, angel fish, butterfly fish, surgeon fish, parrot fish, porcupine fish, unicorn fish, lion fish, trumpet fish, mooray eel, grouper, snapper, ray, sea urchin,clams, crown of thorns starfish, etc... I even managed to see a white sea snake.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This place is a gem! The staff are really helpful and friendly. Rooms are large and really clean. The property is located a few steps away from the bikini beach. The excursions provide good value for money, are well organised and can be undertaken at your own convenience. The Manager runs this place superbly. Will definitely be back.
- Bharat Paldiwal (8/5): Nice Hotel - Really worth the money. They give free pick up and drop which is soothing after a 3 hrs ferry. This is the best property on Diffushi Island. Rates are worth it. Morning breakfast is stumptous and has menu for vegetarians as well. Their charges for activities and water sports are also reasonable. I would recommend this hotel for anybody who can't afford a resort. I don't expect anything more from hotel.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Everything about this place makes me want to return. It's on a small, friendly island that can be walked around very easily. The room was very comfortable, and the restaurant varied its buffet dishes each night. A big plus here was the value, both in the meals and the activities the hotel offers. Those activities match those of a big expensive resort, but without the ridiculous markup.
I enjoyed snorkeling with the sea turtles, and the night fishing trip was a highlight. After just an hour of line fishing, we had about 10 fish. The restaurant prepared my largest white snapper for dinner, and it was so big I could barely finish it.
