Holiday houses in Gaafaru

The stay was incredibly comfortable, and all the staff were friendly and helpful. This might very well be the best accommodation on the island. There’s a large restaurant right across from the property, where you can have your freshly caught fish grilled or fried to perfection. This accommodation is part of the Jerry Diving Center, making it the ideal place if you’re interested in diving, fishing, or any other water activities.

A unique and lovely place right on the beach. Amir made sure everything was simple and easy for me from the moment I arrived to when I departed. He made my whole trip feel special.

Even before I completed my booking, communication with Ikram and Imran was very clear. They were prompt in answering all my queries. Thank you to Imran for upon arrival introducing your entire team and making sure all our needs were met. Thank you to Irfan for planning our day itineraries so we go to experience all the beauty of the island. Thank you to my son's dive instructor Rotx for being so kind and patient with him. Thank you to chef Sandeep for the all tasty food you made for us. Everyone in this lodge has a smile on their face. and is ready to help. We had a memorable trip and have started recommending your place to friends and family ! Thank you!

If you're looking at this listing, book here!! We loved our time at Acque Blu, the island is a beautiful walkable cozy paradise. The room is spacious with comfy beds and gets cleaned regularly; the courtyard is a lush place to unwind in. The staff was very helpful, getting to and from the island was a breeze with the reservations they made for us. Aloo especially was very thoughtful, kind, and made us feel right at home. He even showed us the nurse sharks feeding in the harbour at night which was unforgettable! The water is incredible, so many gorgeous creatures and snorkeling (every day!) is a must. We mostly ate Maldivian dishes and there are some great cafes around the island. The tuna breakfast at Shallow Lagoon, the dhaal at Lemon Drop and watermelon juice being some of our favorite snacks. Come to Rasdhoo, you'll love it like we did!

We enjoyed our honeymoon perfectly! First, Mohammed picked us up in Male and led us to the speedboat. He helped us with the luggage along the way. After we arrived to Rasdhoo guesthouse we’ve been welcomed with a drink and surprised by a perfectly arranged bed (flowers, leafs, swans..). The room was nice and clean, we’ve had all we needed. Wifi worked just fine as well as Air Conditioning. During our stay Mohammed and Hussain prepared a great program of excursions for us – we’ve went snorkelling to see large sea turtles, group of sharks (they've never hurt anyone, ever), then we’ve seen HUGE whale shark and went scuba diving with local Diving School (we don’t have a diving license). Simply said, it was AMAZING. Guys were very helpful and friendly, all the time. We recommend everyone to stay here. It’s all around a great experience, people are friendly, the nature is breathtaking. Thank you for amazing honeymoon!

Beautiful spot right on the beach. Resort is wonderful, people know you by name, food is good, lots to do. A wonderful vacation for a family.

We really loved our stay, they made us feel at home! Our host "Saleem" and his daughter were very kind and available to help us with anything we needed since the beginning of the trip till the end. We will definitely come back to himmafushi Surfing Home!

Our stay at Haneefs was the best holiday ever. We were taken care of 24/7 and every wish we could think of was fulfilled. The locals welcomed us as if we were living there. This was a great way to get to know the life of the locals. The island is a very natural, small island with a nice little jungle and a huge, well-maintained house reef where we could see turtles, small sharks, rays and octopuses right in front of the hotel. You are provided with very good free snorkelling equipment and shown great dive spots. In addition, Haneef and his team offer wonderful excursions, all of which are very reasonably priced and super worthwhile. For example, we were able to see turtles, picnic on sandbanks, explore uninhabited islands and learn to fish with a BBQ afterwards. The restaurant at the hotel is also super delicious and offers very tasty local cuisine, among other things (also pizza, fries and pasta). The two Bikini Beaches on the island are beautiful, next to the hotel and also great for snorkelling. You can also take professional diving courses on the island. We didn't miss anything on our holiday and we made wonderful, close friends. In contrast to the resorts, the holiday is much cheaper but offers similar luxury and above all lots of beaches which are not overcrowded by tourists and great insights into the life of the locals. The excursions are the same as those offered in the resorts, but much cheaper and also more private without large groups of people. We will never forget this holiday and the friends we made will last a lifetime. We will definitely come back and recommend everyone to take a holiday with Haneef in Maalhos. It is worth it!!!
