New,clean,next to the beach 🏖️ beach is so clean,view here amazing .location where you can see local life and enjoy with amazing atmosphere every one just smiling and so kind. I felt I’m in paradise ✨✨✨ You have to see this with your own eyes 🥰 What makes this place so special is Staff ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Especially Husain,Emi,Sana,Mona They are so kind and amazingggg people so friendly and make me feel like family 😭 We were here for 5 days Definitely best hotel in town

The room itself was very good and extremely close to the beach. The best feature of this guesthouse is the host himself. Martin is available by Whatsapp any time of the day for anything you may need. Especially the tours organization was outstading, messaging you right after manta groups enter Hanifaru Bay or when a whale shark is spotted closeby. If you requested the Hanifaru Bay tour and you're unresponsive when mantas enters the bay, he would literally search for you at the beach, at the hotel or at the local restaurants. We stayed 5 nights and thanks to the hotel position and the tours we have been able to swim with mantas, one whale shark (at night), dolphins (watched from the boat only), sea turtles, small sharks, stingrays and morays. The reef on the island is also great with easy sandy access also during low tide.

The Moonshell Residence has a very nice Rooftop Bar and an amazing staff which is exceptionally courteous and nice. We had a lovely and comfortable room and the property is close to the Bikini Beach, which was amazing. We also had our own sunbeds and sunumbrella.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel and couldn’t be happier with my experience. The hotel is brand new, with spacious rooms that are beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable. Everything feels fresh and thoughtfully arranged. It is very quiet and cozy — perfect for families, couples, and even solo adventurers looking for a peaceful getaway. The food is simply fantastic. Special thanks to the chef, who carefully considered all of my dietary requirements and exceeded my expectations. Every meal was delicious and prepared with great attention to detail. The staff truly made the experience exceptional. They are amazingly kind, calm, and gentle people who take care of their guests as if they were family. Their warmth and hospitality create such a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. The location is perfect — just 20 seconds from the beach! The hotel also provides beach towels and a spacious fancy beach bag, bicycles for guests, making it easy and fun to explore the entire island in about 10 minutes. It was a truly wonderful stay, and I am extremely satisfied. I would gladly return and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, tranquility, and genuine hospitality.

Nice guesthouse, 5 minutes walking from the beach. Available staff, always there to help you and to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Very good food. Highly recommend

Easily the nicest place we’ve stayed in the Maldives! it’s the perfect location, clean well maintained facilities, and the most comfortable bed. the showers are hot and the AC is amazing but the best part about it is the Michelin level chef that prepares incredibly thoughtful fresh, healthy meals every single breakfast, lunch and dinner. we felt truly spoiled almost like we had a private chef. we’ve never been ones to eat solely at one location but we never wanted to leave because of his incredible cooking. each meal we’d look forward to the next. we’d highly recommend staying here solely for the food vacation lol the island is very very quiet with not a ton to do but with these meals and this location that is all you need for a relaxing vacation. the staff all around is just excellent. we miss it already !!

Place is new and modern, Staff is very friendly, there were 3 gentleman running the place, they were very helpful. We used bikes to go round the island.

This hotel truly exceeded our expectations. For its price, it is absolutely worth it, we definitely had a wonderful stay. The private beach was clean, the staff were the kindest and most helpful people we have met, they arranged everything we wanted and even beyond what they offered. The restaurant had some of the most delicious food I have ever had. The rooms were spacious and cleaned every day. The pool offered cold water, which was very much appreciated during hot afternoons. And the view from the hotel lobby and from our terrace... I will miss it dearly every day. We will be happy to come back next time we visit the Maldives.

Dharavandhoo is a local island. So you should know that it is for you if you’re searching for some authentic trip without alcohol. That was ok for me and my wife. We wanted to have a rest on the beach, see some fishes, have tasty food and just to stay with comfort. What we have received? - Everything we was waiting for + - True smiles from every single person who work here. It is so wonderful that all staff carries about you, your problems, your needs. They really wanted us to have the best experience we ever had. Even it’s hard to write every single thing why I’m thankful to them because here is not allowed to write so many symbols. Samesh, thank you so much for all of this. Hope you’ll grow to a big hotel director and will give your kindness to as many people as you can! Shuhel, thank you for your Hollywood smile and caring about our comfort! A tall guy with a glasses, thank you for serving! Chief, thank you for 🤌🤌🤌 Michelin’s level delicious food! Lishan, thank you for the excursions! Mantas, turtles, sharks, gopro videos and your eyes! Without them, I would never find all of these things. The owner, thank you for finding all of these people! It was the best vacation I’ve ever had ❤️

Loved the location and the view to the beach from the balcony was amazing. The breakfast was delicious. Service was superb! Rashyn and team were all very accommodating and always so friendly. Had a lovely stay! Thank you!!

And here we are at our second hotel hopping adventure! We chose to stay at this hotel not only because of how beautiful it looks, but also because of the wonderful reviews we read — and yes, they were absolutely true! Count me in as one of the happy guests who truly experienced their excellent service and cleanliness. From the moment we checked in, everything went smoothly. Special thanks to Mr. Riyaz for warmly welcoming us and sharing helpful information about the island and nearby spots. The room smelled fresh and was spotless! What impressed us most was how consistent the housekeeping team was — keeping our room clean every day and attending to our small requests with care. Their breakfast and dinner service was also excellent. I celebrated my birthday here, and they made it truly special — from a beautiful seafood dinner setup by the beach, to a homemade cake, room decorations, and even a surprise beachside dance moment where I felt like I owned the whole island! It’s amazing how attentive they were, even to guests’ birthdates. The hotel staff went above and beyond our expectations. We became friends with David Moorthi, and Sanjeewan, who always made sure we were safe and comfortable, especially at the beachside, until the moment we checked out. We also booked our excursions with them — the Manta Ray and Whale Shark tours — and on our first day, we met the amazing Mr. Pocky, known as the “Manta Man” and one of the owners of Chak’z 1964. Once you book, the team keeps you updated on when you’ll head out for the search. At first, Mr. Pocky seemed quiet and mysterious, but he truly lived up to his words: “If you dive with me, you are safe.” The moment I jumped into the ocean, he never left my side — even held my hand throught the time — and made sure other divers’ flippers didn’t hit me. My best friend’s guide also made sure she was safe at all times.

Room is ok. Staffs are very nice and helpful. Hotel is clean and peaceful.

Great staff. Great location. Modern newly build and very clean and comfortable.
