Located within Emboodhoo Lagoon, Hard Rock Hotel Maldives The hotel features a large ocean view swimming pool with a slide and underwater speakers, Rock Spa, Body Rock gym, Rock Shop, Hard Rock Café, and a direct access to The Marina @ CROSSROADS. I had an absolutely fantastic stay at the Hard Rock Hotel Maldives! I had been staying on another island before coming here, and the weather at Hard Rock was so much better — always sunny, which made the experience even more enjoyable. From the moment I arrived, everything was exceptional. I received a room upgrade, and the room itself was stunning — spacious, beautifully designed, and very comfortable. They surprised me with a birthday cake and sparkling wine, which made my celebration extra special. A huge shout-out to Alfar, my host — truly the best host ever! He was always helping me out any time of the day, making sure everything was perfect throughout my stay. Aikko also helped me a lot to get around and was very nice. The breakfast was great, and when I asked for items not available at the buffet, like chia seeds or pecans, they were happily provided. One of my favorite parts of the room was the huge hammock, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view. The marina live around the overwater villa is incredible. There are many restaurant options around, both at the hotel itself and in nearby properties and the marina, which gives a lot of variety for dining. The hotel also offers many activities, including yoga and jiu-jitsu. Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to join, but it’s great to have so many choices. I did jetski at the water sports center and paid USD 400, which I felt was too expensive — and honestly, I wouldn’t recommend it, as you don’t really see anything more beautiful than what’s already around the hotel. The best part of the island is right there! I also went to the spa and had a lovely massage — a very relaxing experience. The gym has a beautiful view, and it’s really nice to bike around the property and enjoy the scenery. My only small suggestion would be to move the blue light switch to the bathroom instead of connecting it to the bed light. Overall, this was one of the best resort experiences I’ve ever had, and I can’t wait to return.

A good location for a hassle-free getaway in Guraidhoo, Konut by Thakuru is a guest house surrounded by views of the inner courtyard. The property features a garden, shared lounge and parking on-site among other facilities. With a private beach area, the 4-star guest house has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. The guest house features garden views, a sun terrace and a 24-hour front desk. We liked everything: - price vs. quality ratio - friendly and supportive personnel (Ali and Hassan did their best to make sure we had a perfect stay). Best service I've ever seen - location (not far from the bikini beach) - excursions available directly from the hotel (the guides are professional) - free coffee, tea, water, shampoo, towels, hairdryer, etc

Velassaru Maldives offers luxurious beachfront and over-water accommodation with uninterrupted ocean views. It features a wide range of water and adventure sports, as well as sunset cruises and yoga classes. The entire location (hotel and island are the same for all practical purposes), though a bit aged, were in perfect condition, kept and managed really well, and have been designed by people with taste and a good sense of nature and architecture.

The villas and suites offer a choice of room types that are either poised over the water or nestled on unspoiled sands. Choose between villas perfectly positioned to catch the sunrise or sunset, or those that have their own private plunge pool. Among Maldives luxury accommodation, Anantara Dhigu is outstanding with its choice of stylishly designed villas and suites. A number of these villas come with direct access to the powdery white beach and all only steps away from the tranquil lagoon. Very attentive staff, especially Zahid who was with us throughout our stay. Very clean facilities, including kids club. Food is good. Massage is amazing. You can go to the resort via the speedboat which I consider an advantage.

Facing the beachfront, Avyanna Gulhi Beach Hotel offers 4-star accommodation in Gulhi and features a garden, private beach area and terrace. Featuring room service, this property also provides guests with a children's playground. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a kids' club and free WiFi throughout the property. You will fall in love with the Avyanna Hotel! Simply enjoy and relax! It is amazing: it felt like home! We were always welcomed so warm heartedly that we felt like staying at our family or best friends - here on Guhli island! We miss them already! Thanks a million! The hotel is so clean, food is absolutely delicious and we enjoyed so much dining outside with our feet in the sand and simply enjoy and relax. Did I mention that team is exceptional?! We were surprised by them every day! Our room was lovely: friendly and bright with big windows that allow wonderful views to the ocean, sunrise and sunset. We had our own balcony but you can also use their big terrace. We were all the day at the beach and really loved the beach beds reserved for Avyanna’s guests & softest beach towels, too. (It is just a 3 minutes’ walk in the sand to get to the lovely lagune.) Bring your snorkeling set, be prepared to swim for a while crossing the wide flat area to get to the reef slope. You will be remunerated by a beautiful reef where you will see millions of fishes! Sometimes WLan in the room was not working and we came down to the inviting lobby. A good moment to enjoy the delicious, freshly made fruit juices! We highly recommend to do a private tour with Avyannas’ tour operator Shabi to see the turtles naturally eating sea weed in a lagune of another island. Shabi is the most wonderful tour guide - extremely lovely & cool with kids and interested in sustainability. We had so much fun! Plus he is a blessed free diver and photographer and awaits you under water to capture you and the colorful under water world and its creatures: so we got amazing videos and pictures - memories for a life time & and real fun! Thank you! We had dreamlike holidays thanks to the Avyanna team!
