Accessible Hotels in Mahibadhoo

First of all, I highly recommend you read it until the end. An excellent facility on a small and quiet local island full of underwater riches. As soon as you put your feet into the water at the tourist beach, you are surrounded by dozens of different species of fish, but swimming with the fish seen on Youtube is a priceless experience. Mr. Ahmad, the owner of the hotel, is a very polite and helpful person. He is very professional in making all the necessary arrangements for you when you arrive from the capital to the island, in welcoming you at the entrance and when you leave the island. If you want to participate in off-island activities, they will help you as much as they can. You have breakfast as an open buffet at the best restaurant on the island. You should definitely try the product made especially from fresh tuna. Among the 4 hotels I stayed in on 4 different islands during my Maldives trip, this was definitely the newest, cleanest and cheapest. I can guarantee that you will feel at home in this hotel. I would also like to consider that restaurants, off-island activities, and many other things on the island are cheaper than on many tourist islands. Also; Mahibadhoo may not be the best island in the Maldives, but it is a fact that there are better ones in terms of nature and tourism. But if you really want to relax in a quiet environment, this quiet and tiny island located in the natural wonder South Ari Atoll is definitely one of the best local islands you can find. Never mind that the tourist beach is smaller than some, because there are only a few people on the beach at most, so the beach is yours! I definitely recommend splitting your Maldives holiday across more than one island, as I did, and devoting at least some of it to this island and this hotel.

We couldn't recommend Mehel more!! From the moment we landed in Malé they couldn't have been more helpful and kind! Our ferry was cancelled so the staff booked us a lovely room for a night and rearranged our transfer to the next day. When we arrived, we were greeted at the ferry and this incredible service continued until the end of our stay. The rooms are spotlessly clean, spacious and comfortable, and downstairs there is free tea/coffee, snorkelling equipment and a lovely area to chill. Both the western and Maldivian breakfasts were incredible too! We booked activities through Mehel for a very good price and honestly couldn't have enjoyed our stay more! Our highlight was getting to know the lovely owners and staff who made the trip truly special!

friendly staff, great location near the beach

Hangnaameedhoo is a lovely island, not so crowded, wild, with lots of vegetation, great beaches and snorkeling spots, and an authentic local experience. Coral Beach is perfectly located on the beachfront (nice beach right in front of the property, and very close to the Bikini beach). We were upgraded to a Sea-view room with terrace at the first floor, free of charge. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We got free snorkeling masks. Breakfast was buffet, and very good.

Ari Grand Hotel on Dhangethi Island exceeded all expectations during my recent stay. The friendly staff made me feel truly at home from the moment I arrived. The clean swimming pool and inviting garden sofas were perfect for relaxation and work. The spacious room, along with the unexpected upgrade to the Jacuzzi Suite, added a touch of luxury to my experience. Breakfast was a delightful treat each morning, with a variety of delicious options. I'm already planning my next visit to this serene oasis. Thank you, Ari Grand Hotel, for an unforgettable getaway!

Nice, clean, quiet location. Mohamed was very friendly and helpful!

We stayed for 5 days in November and travelled with an infant. The island was absolutely beautiful and having revamped and reopened earlier this year, everything had a touch of freshness. We split time between beach villa and water villa with pool; both rooms were lovely and offered a different experience. The resort staff were fantastic - probably one of the most hospitable bunch of folks we have ever come across. Special mention of the chefs - Sinhal, Chameela and Ali, for taking extra effort to prepare special meals for our baby. Snorkeling was good, specially from the water villa. Overall, would definitely recommend this resort to fellow travellers.
