Reviews of Dive Villa Thoddoo 4 stars

Cozy place and nice staff .

Good place to stay !

And Oscar goes to … Dive Villa Thoddoo! Thank you very much, Anna, Rimma and rest of the team of Dive Villa Thoddoo. I enjoyed my stay in your hotel due to your support and care. Thank you for organizing my boat trip from Male airport to Thoddoo island and back to airport. Dive Villa Thoddoo is a great place to stay. It has several rooms, own restaurant and beautiful front yard with outdoor kitchen. I liked that hotel was peaceful and quiet/silent. Location is fantastic: 2 minutes of walking to the supermarket, ATM, children’s playground (if you have a child), boat station and harbor. 5-10 minutes of walking to the Sunrise beach. 20 minutes of walking distance to the Sunset beach. Stadium, mosque and several restaurants were also nearby. I can recommend my Room #5 deep in the territory. There was everything for comfortable stay: large and comfy bed with clean bed sheet, TV, bedside and ceiling lamps, wardrobe, fridge, cloth hangers, ceiling fan, air conditioner and drinking water, bathroom with shower and toilet. Outdoor kitchen with complimentary tea and filtered water was very useful. I used it a lot to have some tea during night time or to peel mango. I had my breakfast, lunch and dinners in the restaurant of Dive Villa Thoddoo. It was very comfortable as I didn’t want to look for other restaurants. Russian, Maldivian and international food was available for ordering. Their restaurant is also very popular among other tourists from different hotels. They were coming for lunch and dinner every day. Room cleaning service was offered daily, but I didn’t need it as I barely made a mess in my room. Overall, my stay at the Dive Villa Thoddoo was very enjoyable and comfortable. I can highly recommend Dive Villa Thoddoo for short and long term stay.

Everything was fantastic. Nothing to complain.

The stay was truly delightful, offering excellent value for money. The on-site restaurant is exceptional, especially for seafood—it’s undoubtedly one of the best on the island. Every meal was a treat, and it’s a must-visit for anyone staying here. A special mention to the owners and local staff, whose kindness and hospitality made the experience even more memorable. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a seamless stay, assisting with inter-island transfers and arranging electric buggies to the beach whenever needed. Their dedication and warm welcome truly made us feel at home. The accommodation also features a charming little patio where you can relax and enjoy complimentary tea. It was a peaceful spot to unwind after a day of exploring the island and added a cozy, personal touch to the experience. The island itself is a paradise, with one of the best beaches in the Maldives and a breathtaking giant reef. I had read it was among the top beaches in the Maldives, and after experiencing it, I can wholeheartedly agree. Swimming and snorkeling here was like stepping into a dream. I’m incredibly grateful to the owners and team for such a wonderful experience and hope to return in the near future to relive the beauty of this place.

The island has a lot of mosquitoes, though this is not the fault of the accommodation. I recommend bringing a electric plug-in mosquito repellent like Bloom (it worked very well for me) and a plug adapter. The accommodation also provides liquid mosquito repellent, which is helpful. I would suggest bringing your own high-quality snorkeling gear.

When we arrived at Thoddoo, we were pleasantly surprised that the owner Rimma was already waiting for us at the harbor. She kindly greeted us with a welcome drink (a tropical coconut) and led us to the accommodation. It's located a one minute walk from the harbor. The reception and terrace area was beautiful. We stayed in a family room with everything we needed. They cleaned the room and changed our bedsheets and glasses of fresh water everyday. Rimma was very friendly and helpful! She recommended and borrowed us an effective mosquito repellent, provided us an umbrella, flipflops, snorkeling gear... The breakfast was different everyday and always delicious. From pancakes with fruit, to traditional maldivian mashuni. The Black Anchor restaurant is just above the rooms and they cook delicious meals! We had all our lunches and dinners there. Always fresh fish and great drinks. The staff was so friendly and nice. They also offer sea tours, but sadly we had no time to try it. Unforgettable experience!

I liked the Maldives itself more than the guest house. Good, but try to find a better option.

They tried to cheat me out of 10 dollars - a trifle, but not pleasant. Demanded to pay in cash, although it was indicated at the booking that it is possible to pay by bank transfer - I had to demand payment by card and finally did it.

the staff was amazing, helped us book speedboat roundtrip for 140$. location super close to ferry, great wifi and restaurant above the premises

we couldnt stay more :(
