Top South Ari Atoll Hotel Reviews

Lonuhiri at Dhigurah

10/10 Excellent

"Exceptional hotel with the friendliest of staff from the ones that greet you initially with a cool towel and a drink all the way to the staff on reception and those who clean the rooms. The hotel is ran fantastically. The rooms were beautiful especially the sea view deluxe triple with a bath! The hotel couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful during our stay. If you are going to Dhigurah stay here."

Radisson Blu Resort Maldives with 50 percent off on Sea Plane round trip 03 nights & above

10/10 Excellent

"An exceptional experience! My wife and I visited for an 8 night stay. Due to my member status, we were upgraded to a sunset overwater villa. A dream location within the property! Exquisite breakfast, excellent water activities (we went scuba diving everyday), attentive staff, well kept grounds, efficient buggy service (this was a great amenity as walking to/from the villas under the sun can be daunting), peaceful environment, and much more. I would say it’s rather expensive, but the logistics of being in a remote island justifies the premium one pays. Loved the happy hour. This was an anniversary celebration and we were received with a bottle of wine and thoughtful event details in our bungalow. Seaplane transfers were less expensive than other hotel options. We already booked another stay for next year. A beautiful memory to cherish."
