Dhigufaru Island Resort

SAURABH MANE

Our stay at Dhigufaru Resort, Maldives was truly unforgettable! The island is breathtaking, with clear waters and beautiful villas. The food was delicious, and the staff went above and beyond to make our holiday perfect. Special thanks to Niyaz, Ahmed, Shubham, Chef Ajinkya, Thilak, Akhil and Jalal for their warmth and amazing hospitality. Can’t wait to visit again!

The island is about a 40 minute from Malé Airport. When we arrived, we were given food and asked to wait until our room was cleaned and ready. After a long trip, that wait felt quite exhausting. When we finally entered our villa, we found dirty towels folded as if they were fresh ones. The room definitely didn’t look like a 5-star property the renovation seemed quite old. Upon our request, the towels were replaced, but it took about an hour. We stayed in a water villa with a private pool, and as soon as we went outside, we noticed that the umbrella was broken. It also took a full day to have it replaced. The food was okay but not really enjoyable, especially the vegetables. The restaurant was clearly understaffed during busy hours, the service was very slow. Sometimes we received our drinks only by the end of the meal, or not at all. It was also very hot inside because the ceiling fans couldn’t handle the heat. For activities, we went snorkeling and fishing by boat those were nice experiences. There are other options as well, but not everything was working during our stay. There’s also a very small shop on the island with souvenirs and jewelry. There is a doctor’s office on the island, but we were never able to meet the doctor each time we were told they would call us back, and that never happened. It’s very important to bring personal hygiene products, especially for women, because there are none available on the island. I had an urgent situation and the staff didn’t know how to help. After several attempts, one of the female employees kindly offered her own help I’m very grateful to her for that. The biggest advantage of this place is definitely nature: the crystal clear water, the reef, and the white sand look just like the pictures on Pinterest. However, unfortunately, the downsides outweighed the positives.

Our stay at the beach resort was phenomenal. Pristine sands, crystal waters, and top-notch amenities created a perfect escape. The staffs were attentive and so friendly. The rooms were spotless. The dining options were diverse and delicious. Activities like dolphin watch and sunset fishing added to the fun. Also celebrating our 10th anniversary at this place was pure magic ✨ Highly recommend this place for a relaxing and luxurious getaway 🤍🤌🏼

The service is so nice, the weather the breeze the calmness…one would fall in love with it. You would be able to enjoy each and every moment here, best to visit as a couple or family. Over water villas are so cool, especially the one with pool. Had a really great time and adventure here @Dhigufaru Island Resort ❤️

Thank you for taking care of the details of our trip. Our arrival at the Male Airport was exactly as you said. We met our guide (names were in large capital letters) with ease and he took care of our bags and transportation to the Seaplane. Our trip to the island was also very good. When we checked in there was no issues and it was very easy. Our room was exactly as stated. Whenever we needed towels, toiletries, etc ….. a simple phone call took care of our needs. We did pay for the all inclusive package. We were a little surprised that it only included certain drinks. If you wanted a drink not on the list you were charged extra. Their Blue Lagoon, Cosmopolitan and Whiskey sour were all very good. The food in the main restaurant was good and they had a variety of cultural offerings. The service was also great. We met many fine/friendly servers that engaged in conversation with us. The all inclusive only included one of the two fine dining restaurants. We would have liked to know that before we got there and also about the drinks available. It’s always good to have that information ahead of time. The fine dining experience was very good. My wife had the pasta offering and she was very satisfied. I had the seafood tower … I was a little disappointed in the quality considering we were right on the ocean. The service by Sohita was out of this world! The Dolphin cruise was enjoyable. We were pleasantly surprised with the offering of snacks and sandwiches on the boat. They even had chicken nuggets for kids! We spent 3 days at the pool. Our bartender (Dipak) was great. The resort listed that there were two pools (one for children) … no families ever used it. All guests used the main pool. We did not have any real issues getting a lounge chair. Keep in mind the resort was only 30-40% capacity. It would also have been nice to know the size of the pool. It was small by most standards … 30 by 75 feet. One of our most enjoyable times was the DJ night! Plenty of dancing and fun. Our host Roda took care of us for any needs. It would have been nice to know how the process for getting from the seaplane to the airport was going to work. Perhaps we should have asked at the reception. We also would have liked more info about that in our Redbriks itinerary. It worked out OK because we had a very good host at the airport that took us through every process.
