Dhigali Maldives Premium All-Inclusive Resort

> It was a truly wonderful experience. I really needed a change and some relaxation. All the staff were kind, helpful, and always smiling. The services were elegant and high-quality. I'm happy to be back again soon. Thank you Dhigali for the amazing stay. Special thanks to Ji for the arrival experience and all the staff.

We stayed at the hotel in June 2025. We have been to the Maldives many times, but always in winter or autumn, and were pleasantly surprised by the wonderful weather at this time of year. The hotel itself made the most pleasant impression. After the new manager arrived, a lot has changed for the better. First of all, the attitude towards guests, the service and cleaning of the villas, the large pool area, all areas with trees and plants have been cleaned and maintained. New beautiful park areas are being planted. We are regular guests of the hotel and are very grateful to CHRISTIAN SZABO for the improvements to the hotel and the creation of a comfortable and friendly atmosphere. The most pleasant were the changes in food. With the arrival of the new Executive Chef from Italy, Michele Totaro, who completely changed the menu of the A la carte restaurants and made improvements to the main buffet menu. Our favorite restaurants are Jade and Faru. Thanks to Michele, it was belissimo! Thanks also to the staff who kept our villa in perfect order, especially Shohidhul and the Russian-speaking girl Alexandra at the reception. Overall, we are very pleased with the changes and will definitely come back to this beautiful and hospitable place.

I cannot say this is the best resort in the Maldives because we have only ever been to one other resort but this is the 2nd visit to Dhigali in 3 months, the things that brought us back for the 2nd time was the excellent food and drink service, the cleanliness of our over the water villa but most importantly the staff, they are fabulous and I dare say the best we have encountered in any holiday resort we have visited in the past 20 years

This is an absolutely brilliant resort. As others have said, staff are great, happy and well looked after by the manager, Chris. The all-inclusive is exactly that. We had an amazing week and wouldn’t hesitate to go back. Just a few tips if you’re considering going to Dhigali (and if you can, you should) *Be prepared to gain weight….. the food is fantastic! *Bring water shoes, rash vest (or you will burn when snorkelling) and, bring your own snorkels if you have them (they do provide snorkels) *They do fog, but there will be mosquitos, I’m a magnet for them, bring bug spray and buy some flesh coloured Moskinto plasters to pop on if you do get bitten. They stop the itch straight away and stay on even in water, until you’re ready to remove them. Keep the air con on full and room doors closed to keep those mossies out (there are plug ins in the room provided by the resort too). *Book restaurants for your arrival, by emailing the resort in advance. They’re great at responding straight away. *Download the app to book other dinners whilst you are there, so you can return to your favourite ones from previous days. You can also track where the buggies are for a lift if you don’t want to walk. *The cafe is a lovely place to grab a coffee and cake. Prices are displayed on the boards inside, but there is no charge as it’s part of the all inclusive package. *If you like wine, ask for the wine list at dinner, as this allows you to choose from an extensive list of wines, by the bottle and many of these are also included in your package. *You sign for all meals and drinks and there is space to add a tip. We chose to give cash tips, in dollars, as we went along. *Attend the complementary Wellness session at the spa. It’s really good and you get a little gift at the end along with a voucher for a free treatment if you book another, which I did and both were absolutely wonderful. Worth every penny! *Book the sunset cruise and glass bottomed boat (both complementary) *Dont forget to visit the water sports area to try paddle boarding or kayaking (again complementary) *We had villa 323 and found this area to be perfect. Thank you to Dighali, we had the most amazing holiday with so many lovely memories and really didn’t want to leave.

Wow what an amazing place!!! This was our 4th island in the Maldives and one of the best. Best parts are the beaches on the north side. Although a rock sea barrier has been put in place it has created the most spectacular bays full of fish, baby sharks and new corals. Weather was quite windy in May so snorkelling was quite choppy but these areas were safe and gave you the opportunity to swim through gaps to see the reef edge in more rougher waters. The whole island is very natural with lots of plants and flowers (bring mosquito repellent) The four restaurants Capers, Jade, Faru and Battuta are truly wonderful-there’s everything you could possibly wish for and if that’s not enough then there’s a cafe serving cakes, ice cream and milkshakes and a pizza take away! We used the gym which was well equipped. The staff were the highlight special mention of Ji in reception, Sohidul our room boy, Azza and Neha in Capers and Nissan at the gym - always smiling and friendly. A special thanks go to the head chef Michelle, who went out of his way to make octopus carpaccio when I mentioned I’d tried it in his home Puglia. Would definitely recommend and hope to return xxx
