Hotels With Pools in Vaavu Atoll, Maldives

The hotel is nice, the food is decent (though the chicken and fish were often spicy), and there's always fruit (papaya, guava, pineapple, passion fruit, melon, and watermelon). On the first day, we were greeted with a welcome drink, and on our last day, we were given fresh juice and battered seafood as a complimentary dinner—a nice touch. The staff is friendly. We used the hotel's boat to get to and from the airport. The advantage is that if your flight is delayed upon arrival, they'll wait for you, and on the day of check-out, you can use your room and have lunch (we had a full meal plan). Overall, I recommend the hotel. The only thing is that the island is being actively developed, and construction is visible in many places. This spoils the overall picture a bit, and in the future, there will be a lot of people, making it difficult to find privacy.

Room: Very spacious. The master bathroom has a separate shower and a bathtub, which is very comfortable. The bed on the second floor faces the sea directly, offering an open view. The sofa bed on the first floor is also of good quality, perfect for kids. We didn't use the pool much, preferring to go directly into the sea to play. Island environment: Simple and beautiful, with lots of pretty fish. Dining: The main restaurant serves good food, and the menu changes daily. You can also pay extra to dine at a smaller, more refined restaurant with fewer people. Activities: The three-point snorkeling (sharks, dolphins, turtles) and sunset fishing were both excellent. The guides were very professional and took great care of every guest. You can borrow masks and fins to snorkel independently at the hotel, and there are many beautiful fish to see. Service: Very warm and attentive.

Stay here for 4days 3 nights. Once arrived jetty, the girl called Kiran serve us and lead us to villa. They did informed us earlier about the renovation and no sea view for sea view room. Kiran is mostly on night shift but she is very kind and helpful. She can understand your need and help us did the dinner table decoration for Birthday night. They provided the drone shooting with stingray, we experienced it and quite recommend. Room is clean, staff there also will ask if we need room service, the mattress are thick, air con is cool enough, mineral water can get easily outside the room. They did provide welcome drink and cool towel. Bathroom is prepared with shampoo and body shower but there is no toothbrush and toothpaste (need to prepare ourself, but if they can improved is good). Room also have a mirror and one inside the toilet. Hair dryer provided. Overall is perfect. One thing unsatify is about the mosquito, the reception counter and the cafe area have a lot of mosquito, hopefully they can provide the mosquito repellent spray as the mosquito is really affect the mood and environment. The food that they provide is nice, morning is buffet style and dinner sometimes is food ordering and sometimes is buffet. Maybe can improve on this by print out a memo before dining time so everyone alert with the arrangement today but not told by staff on the spot of ordering food. The day we left have to take the morning flight and very nice of them they prepared us the packed breakfast. I strongly recommend this villa as i really value their service and hospitality, very staff in their cafe all service with smile.

We had an unforgettable experience at the Madi Grand Hotel in Fulidhoo, Maldives, from March 12 to 17. Although our original plan was from March 11 to 17, a flight change led to an adjustment. However, the team handled the situation professionally and made us feel at ease from the start. We had a few questions before our trip, and the team responded kindly and promptly. Special thanks to Shariq and his colleagues, who gave us a warm welcome, showed us around, and provided great advice on what to do on the island. We traveled as a group of three and booked two amazing excursions the next day: a combo trip to the nurse sharks, Turtle Bay, shipwreck, and sandbank. Everything was perfectly organized, and we felt safe throughout the trip. Shariq and the boat captain created a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. If you’re nervous about snorkeling, Shariq is the perfect guide to help you feel at ease and enjoy the experience. He also took stunning photos of us, creating lifelong memories. We also did night fishing, which was a lot of fun. The team made sure that everyone had a chance to catch a fish—many of us caught more than one! Afterwards, we enjoyed a delicious BBQ prepared by the hotel, which was the perfect way to end the evening. Another highlight was the house reef tour, where we saw beautiful fish and even a turtle. The reef is recovering well, and the vibrant marine life was incredible. We also captured some stunning photos during this experience. A very special moment was celebrating my birthday during our stay. The team came up with a lovely surprise that made my day even more memorable. The chocolate brownie was absolutely delicious – thank you again for this wonderful gesture! But our absolute highlight was the dolphin snorkeling trip! Swimming with dolphins was magical, and since we went early, we were almost alone with them. It was an experience we’ll never forget. The hotel is centrally located on the island, which is very compact and easy to explore. You can easily reach everything on foot, as Fulidhoo has no cars. The Bikini Beach is also nearby, and the hotel provides sun loungers and umbrellas upon request. They even provided mosquito spray, which was a thoughtful touch. The room was clean and comfortable, and breakfast was delicious. The view from the rooftop terrace was simply breathtaking. Shariq and the entire team are wonderful hosts, doing their work with passion and care. Every wish we had was fulfilled, and every excursion was worth it. We truly appreciated their hospitality and have taken them into our hearts. We wholeheartedly recommend the Madi Grand Hotel! If you’re looking for an unforgettable experience on Fulidhoo, this is the place to be.

The island selection was very successful. In addition to the speedboat being a little far away (acceptable for more than an hour), there is also a seaplane option. The service response, accommodation hardware and snorkeling environment are all great. There are no mosquitoes on the island, and the water houses are even more comfortable and great. The sun set water house is closer to the trench and more suitable for snorkeling. The other water houses have more beautiful sea water colors, and the sand houses look very good. There is not much publicity, and even if the occupancy rate is relatively high, it is still very quiet. The island is not too big or too small, and it is not very tiring to walk and the sea water is beautiful. It is not hot for several days. Everything feels great. The breakfast can be changed more every day! I will come again in the future! The atmosphere of the water house is also good at night, not scary at all
