Outrigger Maldives Maafushivaru Resort

Very nice resort! Lots of marine life and the rooms were amazing. We stayed at a water villa.

Had a wonderful stay. We were lucky enough to have Moosa as our helpful concierge. Moosa assisted us make reservations to the restaurants and provided us with a helpful overview of the resort. Staff were friendly and helpful. Hope to return to this resort in the future

Our 10th visit to the Maldives since 2005. Different island every time and all memorable in many ways. I don’t normally review resorts but I’m making an exception this year as this we could break with tradition and return to here. It may help those who are pondering on where to go and is it worth the expense. The simple answer is Maafushivaru and yes. No airbrushed photos required for this place. It is as seen. The accommodation, in our case a beach pool villa, was fantastic and located next to a shallow lagoon. There was a sea wall barrier between this and the outer reef but something has to be done to stop the erosion and most islands do the same. Some spots around the resort were better for sea-life and snorkelling with a high variety of fish including sharks and rays. We went Dine Around All Inclusive which gave us access to the a la carte restaurants. Food was second to non throughout. The Koffee and Chill cafe is a brilliant place made that bit more special by Aminul who was great fun and tried his hardest to increase my weight. Good Dive Centre with a variety of excursion’s available. Finally, but by no means least, I will mention the people who helped make our stay so enjoyable. Nabeel did a great job organising our itinerary. Vialli the bar manager was that bit special. MJ and Naseed in the Restaurant, Pradip and Joy who both seemed to help out everywhere and Adam who was our ‘bed artist’ all deserve a special mention. To be fair all the staff deserve praise. We have come to consider the Maldivian Islands as an example of perfect service. Thanks to all for making our stay exceptional.

There are no words to explain how utterly amazing our holiday to Outrigger was - it was everything we had hoped for on a holiday of a lifetime and so so much more. The staff are so incredibly friendly efficient and truly professional. Every single staff member took time to speak acknowledge and ensure you were having a perfect holiday . Zi was our personal guide - what a truly charming young man - an absolute superstar ⭐️ Attention to detail is second to none Our whole stay was thoroughly perfect in every way The food in all restaurants is incredible - such high standard - our dining experience in the pod at moodhu was our highlight The snorkelling was out of this world seeing so many different fish - stunning Boat trips were amazing despite not seeing the whale shark! Spa experience was fantastic - a must while you are there a truly dedicated management team with staff that are one big happy family We truly hope to return

We spent a week at Outrigger Maldives on a family vacation, and it was a wonderful holiday. The resort was very well maintained, with spacious rooms equipped with all the accessories you might need—we even had our own Bluetooth speaker! The hotel restaurants offered a wide selection of food, ranging from international dishes to Asian cuisine and local Maldivian specialties. The lunch restaurant had a special offer every day, allowing us to try new flavors. Our best dining experience was the teppanyaki dinner, where the chef prepared food right in front of us. Around the hotel, we found a clean, well-maintained beach without any seaweed on the shore. The crystal-clear water and in-house reef, accessible by swimming, were amazing. We saw many fish, sharks, and even a turtle! A special thanks to Dimitri, who personally took care of us throughout our stay, and to Manager Mr. Guillaume for his client-oriented attitude and dedication to resolving any inconvenience. To sum it up, we had a wonderful week at Outrigger Maldives, filled with relaxation and great memories. Many thanks!
