Family hotels and homes in Dharavandhoo

Everything was perfect and all the staff, from waiters, to the young ladies at the reception, the drivers and the manager himself were genuinely welcoming, kind and helpful! The rooms are very cozy, front beach, amazingly decorated and clean.  The food at the restaurant is delicious and they also offer variety of choice at breakfast every morning!

Best accommodation on the island, excellent buffet breakfast. And best location on the island too. Super friendly staff and they also organise their own tours too. You won't be disappointed booking this place

🌴Our stay at Bageechaa Stay was nothing short of spectacular!🏖️ If you’re visiting Dharavandhoo Island, this is the place to stay. From arrival, Shihab, the incredible owner, welcomed us warmly and ensured every detail of our trip was seamless. Whether it was arranging transfers, planning excursions, or adding thoughtful personal touches, his hospitality was outstanding. 🌿A Tranquil Garden Retreat🏡 True to its name, Bageechaa (meaning "Garden") is a beautiful oasis. The central garden creates a calm, relaxing atmosphere, perfect for dining and unwinding. The modern, stylish design gives it an upmarket resort feel at an affordable price. 🚤 Easy Transfers & Convenient Location ✈️ Shihab arranged a speedboat transfer for us and personally picked us up from the harbour. Dharavandhoo also has its own airport, with 25-minute flights from Malé, making travel effortless. We took the speedboat in and flew back—both organised flawlessly by Shihab. 🌊A Paradise for Marine Lovers🐢🦈 The island is near Hanifaru Bay, where majestic manta rays gather seasonally, and close to a whale shark hotspot. Shihab organized amazing excursions—snorkelling, diving and sandbank trips—with trusted local providers. 🍽️Exceptional Dining👨‍🍳 Bageechaa’s in-house restaurant serves delicious, well-presented meals thanks to their talented chef Senaka. He skillfully prepares Maldivian and Western dishes, even adapting meals for our 8-year-old daughter—a rare personal touch! 🏡Outstanding Hospitality – A Home Away from Home❤️ The Bageechaa team, including the kind and attentive Suba, made us feel like family. Whether you're solo, a couple, or a family, they ensure a memorable, comfortable stay. 🌟The Best Choice on Dharavandhoo!🌟 With top-quality rooms, great service, and personal attention, Bageechaa Stay is the best accommodation on Dharavandhoo Island.

Breakfast absolutely sufficient and always served by a smiling chef! :-))And wait until he serves you the fish, you will enjoy it!!! And Izzul also has Italian cuisine in his little finger, so that you simply won't want to go anywhere at all. Allow yourself to enjoy the art of this young and very skilled chef, you won't regret it!Thanks for everything, gentlemen, I appreciate your willingness and absolute helpfulness in all our wishes. It was a pleasure for us to enjoy wonderful days of relaxation and many thanks for the arrangement of transportation by boat to the island of Dharavandhoooooo:-))) so the plane ticket back. You are fighters and keep it up!

Brand new local architecture. Competent & pleasant staff that will go out of their way to assist you.

I had an amazing experience! From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring every detail was taken care of. The room was spotless, beautifully designed, and equipped with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was ideal – making it easy to explore the area. The breakfast was outstanding, offering a wide variety of fresh and delicious options. What really stood out was the exceptional service – nothing was too much trouble, and every request was met with a smile. I truly felt like a valued guest throughout my stay.

If you're hesitating between Biosphere and other hotels, go with Biosphere – it's the best on the island. The staff was absolutely amazing, they went above and beyond to ensure a fantastic stay. Upon arrival, I was stuck in Malé due to not having a ticket (all speedboats and flights were fully booked), but one of the owners somehow managed to find a solution in no time. I am extremely grateful for their help and support, because otherwise I'd have cancelled the trip. Communication was very smooth, they answer quickly to messages and always try to help. The staff at the hotel (reception, restaurant, etc.) was also extremely helpful, and the food was great. The room was very clean and cleaned daily, the best I've experienced on a local island in the Maldives. The excursions are phenomenal - with a little bit of luck, you'll be able to see many manta rays and whale sharks. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

The staff were all super friendly and very helpful with anything we needed. They were so kind taking us out on their boat to see the mantas and trying to see the whale sharks. The breakfast was also delicious. They let us borrow snorkelling equipment for swimming off the beach. They also helped us arrange the speedboats and met us from the jetty and gave us a tour of the island which was lovely.

: Really nice place, close to "bikini"- beach. Friendly, helpful staff (Afo). Drinking water is always available at the common kitchen. The whole place was really clean, and calm. Room, bathroom was clean, well equipped. Warm water was always ready for shower. Room is bright, with some really nice paintings on the wall. Breakfast and dinner was really tasty, and varie.

Everything was perfekt. The location is awesome, directly on the beach and everyone is super friendly. It is the perfect place to stay when you want to see mantas. I definitely recommend going on the diving and snorkeling excursions they organize every day
