Overall about Anantara Dhigu”

Environment, Facility and most importantly PEOPLE
Not many choices of food and no in-room catering

Overall about Anantara Dhigu is very impressive starting from the day one we were picked up at the airport to the last day we left the resort. What can I say besides "we love this resort". People were so nice. There were not so many people around at the time of my stay. The resort is not too far from the airport, which made our life a lot easier. Rooms are clean and beautiful. The poor thing (but not too bad as heard from friends who had been there before us and from the comments by Agoda customers) is about the food that we do not have plenty of selection besides 3 restaurants in the resorts, and a few bars. What about the value? Well, what do you expect about Maldives? Nice place and nice service do not come cheap. But as far as I can compare with other hotels without ever visiting those, I believe Anantara Dhigu will be worth the money. Besides the misunderstanding and system error when booking through Agoda, my honeymoon trip is quite a perfect one at Anantara Dhigu.

Obviously, Incredible.”

If you're reading this review...you should know you're considering one of the most beautiful resorts in the entire world. There are so many places to begin...but you should feel beyond confident in booking Anantara. You have access to Veli (free pontoon boat goes back and forth every 10 minutes.) . When speaking to a ton of the employees at the resort, they all talk about how Anantara Dhigu has the nicest lagoon out of any of the resorts they have worked at or seen in the Maldives. It truly is special and a place out of this world. The feedback here is for management, and in should no way at all precent you from booking....this is easily the best place i've EVER stayed and I travel all over the world, all the time. Management should provide each villa with 2 bicycles, instead of you having to steal from other peoples or stressing about having a bike. There are never any on any rack (and I was there for 2 full weeks). Management should also not charge $12 for every water.

Best Experience!”

Location- 35 min speedboat ride from the airport, Activities- Family and kids-friendly (Kids' Club was a plus point) Staff performance- Helpful and goes all out to make guests feel very welcomr

My stay was perfect. The resort took great care of our needs, from the speedboat transfer to providing extra bedding for my two girls, even though I had not requested for it. The location is excellent and everything looked like in the pictures! The only downside is the cost of food- it is a little pricey so if you are travelling with young children, might be good to bring lotsa snacks from home. Other than that, Anantara Dhigu had provided my family and me a truly unforgettable experience at the Maldives!

Paradise on earth ”

What a wonderful stay at Anantara Dhigu. We were welcomed by group of staffs who sing the local song. The room i booked is anantara over water pool suite with private pool and direct access to the sea. The sand on the whole island are crystal clear and very clean . The room is so spacious and i really love the bath tub with amazing view on that window. Special thanks to Mr Mohammad, the head of our villa , who is very friendly and helpful. Dont forget to try the spa, as you has direct view to the ocean (special thanks to Miss Iris who provides super nice massage) . The room is cleaned twice a day (special thanks to Mr Shahih who keep our room so clean and neat). Definitely will come back to Anantara Dhigu and i am sure gonna stay longer 👍🏻

What a wonderful world”

Great Place, Amazing View, Beautiful Beach

I stayed for 4 days and 3 nights in sunrise over water villa in anantara dhigu with such a great view from deck of our room, we can enjoy the sunrise from our bed. The spa experience was amazing, with professional therapist and it is located over the water. I can enjoy watching fish under our room while im doing spa. The buffet was nice also. This hotel provide many choices of restaurant. One of the best is that Thailand restaurant, and the other such as Italian, Japanese, BBQ, and Seafood restaurant... Its such a pleasure to exprience our honeymoon in this resort. Will definitely comeback. Thanks Anantara Dhigu.

This place is just in redible. I wish I could give it an extra star”

The arrival is just amazing the staff is so attentive and caring and we felt so well treated from the min we got off the boat. Bobir was so kind and just great at the finer details and we celebrated our anniversary and the special touches were amazing. We traveled with a 2yr and 6month old and even with the busy eas of two had such a relaxing time. Staff was amazing with our two year old and quickly learnt his name. Food is 5 star and make sure you go to the thai restaurant. We stayed in the sunset watervilla. It is just amaZing. I thought I was dreaming often. The beach villas are great too and the pictures does not actually do it justice. The island is just beautiful. The sunrise side has a few islands infront of it but worh everything else being fantaatic it doesn't bother you. The water is picture perfect.

Paradise indeed!”

Reasonably-priced. Excellent food. Fabulous ambience in restaurants. Since it's one of two properties in the Maldives, guests of either resort can hop on to the other at no charge.
Not as private as I would have wanted it to be. I could hear staff talking to one another and walking around in the early afternoons. Only two very slow computers for free Internet access though wifi is complimentary at the hotel lobby and other common areas but wifi capabilities do not extend to the rooms.

It was my first time to the Maldives and I wanted to make sure I chose the "right" resort. I had read that it was crucial to find the right resort at the Maldives as it was not possible to hop from one to another for a change of mind. Well, I did not make a mistake in my choice of Anantara. We stayed at two oceanview villas. We could see the lovely sunset from our villa every afternoon. The food was fabulous. We took to private dining most times as did most people at Anantara. There was a good mix of guests in the hotel- couples and families were fairly represented.

Happy time in Maldives”

Baan Huraa Thai restaurant is the best. Staff are very nice and well trained.
renovation at hotel disturb our stay because of wokers.

Our couple really enjoy and have a happy time in Anantara Dhigu. With the best services of hotel staff. You can meet a hotel staff from Japan,Thailand,Holland,India and others country includes Maldivian staff. thay are very nice, lovely and helpful. We suggset that you would have a great time in Baan Huraa,Thai Restaurant. You will enjoy kayaking that free of charge. Resort provide free snokkle equipments during your stay. The sunset over water villa is near an aquanatics center but if you want to go to anatara veli,a sister resort,you should call for buggy if you don't want to walk very far. You must try thai massage at spa. there are volleyball court,tennis court,table tennis,badminton and water sports on the islands. For dinner, we always made a reservation for each restaurant otherwise you won't get the best table to see baby sharks and panorama view of the ocean. by the way cocktail at resorts are very expensive.

In a word - Amazing...”

the sunset over-the-water villas are worth every single penny, staff are terrific, be ready to relax within an hour of arriving....

my husband and i went to anatara dhigu for our 7th anniversary. we stayed 4 nights in a sunset over-the-water villa and it was the most perfect vacation we have ever enjoyed. we enjoyed our time at dhigu more than we have enjoyed any other vacation (and believe me - we've had a few). the views were unparalleled, the staff was courteous and helpful, the food was amazing, and the service was professional, friendly and exceptional in every instance. yes, the rooms are expensive but since we had everything we wanted in our villa with private deck, instant access to the amazing water and ocean and sunset views that still leave me smiling, we rarely felt the need to leave the comfort of our room. if you average out how much we spent by the amount of time we actually spent in the room, it actually works out cheaper than other hotels where we've stayed! plus, with the amazing staff at the anantara, i was in my relaxing zone within 90 minutes- as opposed to a typical 1-3 days to be able to start unwinding. seriously. this one will go down in our family albums as the vacation of our lifetimes. eager to get back here.

Nice resort”

We stay in 2 rooms during our stay in Anantara, Villa 22 and 117. Villa 22 is a Sunrise Beach front villa, and villa 117 is a water villa. We enjoy every amazing moment when staying here. Except we are family of 4 and they arrange 2 rooms too far away from each other, so we have to walk a lots. The buggy is quiet busy during our stay and we have to wait 20 minutes each time for the car, so its really waste time each time we want to go to each other’s room. Both 2 villas are big and well – equipped, we got everything we need in room. Yoy stay in Dhigu and you can go to Veli – sister resort nearby, by boat. We really enjoy the movie “in jungle” under the star in Veli. Staff are very helpful and nice, we love how they welcome us and how they waive goodbye at the pier. We miss the resort already and do hope one day come back again. You guys really did great job from the beginning of our trip by answering lots of my emails, untill we left. We’re happy and have lots of nice pictures.

It made our honeymoon so wonderful!”

The resort is fantastic! We really loved our huge watervilla bedroom and the very wide bathroom window facing to the ocean. The bed was nicely decorated with flowers and elephant-shaped towels on the day of our arrival. That was super cute! The beach, swimming pool and restaurant were amazing! The food was delicious and had so many choices. For dinner at the restaurant, we had to make reservation in advanced, as mostly the restaurants were full. There were also bikes that we could use if we want to explore the islands. The staffs were helpful and super friendly. On our arrival, we were a bit dissappointed as we didn't expect that we had to wait for more than 2 hours at Anantara reservation office at Male airport to wait for another passenger who'd shared the speedboat to the resort. But thanks to the great reseptionists and services, as a complement, they allowed us to have a late checkout and let us stayed in their beach villa while waiting our flight which was at 10pm. Bravo!

Photo ops everywhere!!”

The over water villas are HUGE and beautifully designed. <3 They're perfect for couples even though Dhigu is meant for families, and Veli for couples. (We'd choose Dhigu over Veli anytime) There's ample space in between villas so guests are sure of their privacy. Food is great, but they're not for those on a tight budget. A dinner for two costs around 160-200++USD. Yikes! I highly recommend dining at Baan Hurra! Hubby on the other hand, loved the food at Sea Fire Salt. Lastly, the staff were amazing! They treated us like royalty. Shout out to Riza, Shameem, Joel, and Anna for going the extra mile. Thanks Anantara!

Very nice Beach Villa with beautiful Beach”

nice beach, excellent food (in general), very good house keeping service,

the staff is very friendly and helpful. the people from housekeeping is doing its duty very properly. they try to fulfill all the guests wishes.... they also very generous with drinking water bottles. the big advantage of this island is, that you can also go to anantara veli by a short boat trip. gives you some change. dhigu has some excellent restaurants. the prize for value is ok, the same is also for the prizes for alcohol. only the evening buffet (at the restaurant next to reception) is by far overpriced. the island is very good maintained and well kept.

Paradise ”

Kids and adults perfection

Great for kids with loads to do for adults (surfing, Sailing, fishing) -- easy boat ride from male, unreal amazing aquatic life. Could use one more restaurant that opens before 6:30pm for the little ones who go to bed early. Sticker shock on meals is expected in Maldives, but at least I saved a ton by using the agoda app

Perfect for Honeymoon”

easy access to the beach, friendly staffs, very nice room

A great experience to stay at Anantara Dhigu, the room is perfect, their staffs are very helpful, and the most important thing for me is the room just a step to the beach. Daily breakfast a little bit boring (same menu everyday) and there's just a few choices for restaurants / cafe, my only recommendation is Thai cuisine (must be reserved and using a boat to get there).
