Anantara Dhigu Resort is surrounded by soft, white sand beach on Dhigufinolhu Island in the Maldives’ South Malé Atoll, a 35 minutes speedboat journey from the island nation’s international airport.

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.

OZEN LIFE MAADHOO - Luxury All Inclusive, hotel in South Male Atoll

Offering a year-round outdoor pool and a private beach area, OZEN LIFE MAADHOO - Luxury All Inclusive is located in South Malé Atoll. The resort is approximately 45 minutes away from Malé by...

This was our second time at Ozen in 4 months. First time ... couldn't fault it. This time ... not so positive, we had to move rooms. As the first night we were disturbed all night by noisy neighbours with unruly kids and blaring music and shouting. We had the 2 bedroom beach villa 508 as requested same as time before but this time it was not as great. Second night other side were noisy also so we moved the next day. It Seemed a big group of Russians took over and it was very rowdy, The second room was dusty and smelt damp. Esp the second bedroom where our little boy slept. We had issues with the A.C and again noise. This time the bottle area where the laundry team use to put old bottles and bedding etc we could hear bottles being thrown all evening until turndown had been completed. All in all we had paid $18k dollars for accommodation only. And we're not as impressed as last time. Would be hesitant to return. Will try elsewhere next time. Our butler however was as amazing as always as were the staff, just let down by guests and also room issues.

    Not everywhere you can see that much sea turtles and manta ray this was incredible;)Food is good also ,a lot of seafood for dinner. All hotel staff are super friendly and helpful. Hotel has clinic and doctor stay at resort 24/7 and after emergency call come in 10 minutes to the room. For family with kids it’s perfect.

    Both family and couple orientated the place is just fantastic, despite some hiccups the overall is very good . Is very peaceful and the island(s) quite big so not easy to get bored. Sea life is vibrating and staff excellent. Many activities to do . Try stay in bungalows with pool. This will raise the quality a noch, that will definitively make your stay more pleasant.

    So, let me tell you about our recent getaway to South Male...

    So, let me tell you about our recent getaway to South Male Atoll - it was like stepping into a postcard. From the second we landed, it was all about those island vibes and clear blue waters. Our digs were top-notch, I'm talking overwater villas and cozy beachfront bungalows with views that made us never want to leave. And don't even get me started on the snorkeling and diving - we swam with manta rays and checked out some seriously cool coral reefs. But it wasn't just about the underwater action. On land, we had spa days, tried all the water sports, and chowed some seriously fresh seafood. And let's not forget about the locals—they were so welcoming and friendly that it felt like we'd known them for years. Long story short, South Male Atoll is the ultimate chill spot. Whether you're into relaxation or adventure, there's something here for everyone. We left feeling totally refreshed and already planning our next trip back.

    Very well organised - you are taken care of as soon as you arrive until the security at the airport. You don’t lift a finger, luggage is collected/delivered. Transfer by boat was very efficient - excellent service

    The place is amazing, the watter and everything you seen in the photos and videos is exactly the same or even more beautiful. Thake care about the UV solar power, on our stay was maximum on the scale and a 50 spf is highly recommended as with 30 spf you will get burned and believe me is happening so fast 🤦🏻‍♂️ The temperature is quite constant and even during the night is very hot. Seaplane transfer can be quite expensive. Definitely worth visiting at least once in a lifetime!

    The water bungalow experience was fabulous; stepping down the bungalow steps straight into the sea and the reef area for snorkelling was amazing. There was so much underwater life to see. Although the bungalows were a little tired and the bed was not the comfiest, we loved the experience. As they are semi detached, pray you don’t get a noisy couple next door! The sunsets were stunning.

    The Vellasaru experience starts from the point you come out of the airport to the point you hand your bags at the airline counter. It was amazing throughout. The staff at the resort were extremely friendly. Breakfast was great. Room was spacious and clean. The island was really well maintained. And honestly we could not ask for more. Views were amazing, marine life was decent and plenty of activities to keep you busy for 5 days. My little one did not want to leave the island and wanted to buy a house in the Maldives 😀

    Water villa was very nice, someone available to clean morning and evening which is helpful when you have kids, saii app was very good and reception responsive and buggy arrived within 10 minutes of requesting. Food was decent and could use facilities at hard rock hotel too although sai lagoon facilities were nicer. In addition, kids club had a variety of activities and had to book in advance. Hannan at reception was very helpful and transfer to the resort was quick and someone at airport to collect and transfer

    We loved the place!! I would definitely recommend it to anyone travelling to the Maldives. We have been to a few other resorts in the Maldives but this one is really special from the moment you arrive at the airport and threw all our stay. People are just so nice and attentive and they know about your needs even before you. Don't let me start about their restaurants, apart from the main one, the M6M (underwater restaurant) and the Traditions Indoceylon really swept us off our feet.

    The view from the room was fantastic - especially the Grand Water Villa. Our host Cora was outstanding. She was available for whatever we needed and was able to give me suitable and precise answers to any question I had, whenever I asked within a reasonable timeframe. I loved this concept of being connect with them via WhatsApp and I applaud the hotel for using technology for taking guest service to the next level.

Excellent choice of restaurants. The room was a very good size and beautifully decorated. We loved there were many excursions and activities offered too at this resort. We dived and got involved in coral planting. The resort was perfect !!

    The size of the hotel is great, you can spend every day in a different part experiencing the stunning views. Choice of restaurants and food quality was a great standard. Hotel entertainment was enjoyable, there are enough areas to escape if you feel you need to. Bikes for each room was a great addition meaning it was easy to explore the resort.

    The Island and Reef are just amazing to do snorkel. The ambiance is calm and slowlife. The hotel is not luxurious but everything you need, maintaining the essence of the island and nature, which is amazing. The food buffet has a lot of variety and every day the theme changes, amazing grill and pasta.
