Wonderful all inclusive experience curated for divers. We went for snorkeling. It was perfect. The team of Boutique Beach organised the transfers to and from airport. The hotel has a reduce number of rooms. I think maximum number of guest is around 22. This and the approachable  staff create a great sense of family. All guest have meals together. There is a daily routine to make the best out of the diving experience. Early morning (6.30ish)we go out in 2-3 dives/snorkle jumps. The hotel owns their own boat. We had an instructor for every 1 to 3 people. Every day we visited different areas and view different locations. In general back to the hotel for lunch. Divers may go for one more dive. Afternoon is free. You can walk to the white sand beach just 5meters from the hotel door. At 7 is meeting time to hear a bit about fish in the area, and the plans for the next day. 7.30 is time for dinner. The diver crew often joins. It is focused on giving diving guests a great experience. During our stay several of the other guest had been in the hotel 2 or 3 times before this one time, and some of them were divers with 20+ years of diving. They stated that the experience is really great, especially if compared with other options on Maldives. I al not a diver, so have no opinion. Yet I found that so many appasionados repeat a good sign. Food at the hotel ia is very tasteful. Everyday a different menu and they accomodate for dietary requirements. The rooms are quite big, super comfortable mattress and pillows. We were provided with beach towels and beach bag too. Even yoga mat to take to the beach for extra support under the towel. The island itself is inhabited by locals. As they are Muslim sleves, and at least  knee long clothes to be wear outisde the 'bikini beach'. It is great that is not a 'resort only' experience island. There are a few shops with basic food and touristy stuff.

Just wow! We had such a great stay. Very lovely place with a very welcoming and lovely team. Great family atmosphere. Different snorkeling/diving tours every day. Great food, service and nice rooms. We will definitely come back, but next time we will book the diving package. :D Thank you so much dear boutique beach team for making our holiday such an amazing experience! <3

Staying at this hotel in Dhigurah was truly exceptional. It exceeded everything we hoped for — especially for those passionate about diving. Every single day, there’s a different diving program carefully planned by an outstanding team of professional and knowledgeable instructors. They know exactly what they’re doing and always take guests to new dive spots, focusing on unique experiences and the chance to see a variety of marine life. What makes it even more special is how the team creates a great group atmosphere. They encourage everyone to interact, creating a fun, collaborative, and friendly environment among guests. Every evening, they screen a video recap of the day’s dive — filmed and edited by the crew — which is such a nice way to relive the experience and connect with fellow divers before dinner. It’s also when they brief the next day’s adventure, building anticipation in the best way. The boat crew is also amazing – they’re highly skilled at finding whale sharks and other sea creatures, and their dedication to making sure guests have the best possible experience is unmatched. They’re truly a reference on the island when it comes to diving expertise. The hotel itself is beautiful and full of thoughtful details. The hospitality and service were outstanding throughout our stay. One of the highlights was the open-air bathroom – it’s such a unique experience to shower surrounded by nature. And the food? Absolutely the best we had in the Maldives. From the moment we arrived, they asked about dietary restrictions and then surprised us every day with a different, delicious menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Every meal felt like it was made with care and creativity. We can’t recommend this place enough – for the hospitality, the incredible diving, the amazing instructors and crew, and the overall experience. Just perfect from beginning to end.

Amazing dive hotel with lovely people working there. It feels more like home then a hotel. The dives were amazing and the food was delicious. We are coming back

Just came back from a great week at the Boutique Beach hotel in Dhigurah - it was truly amazing! I almost don’t want to share it as I am hoping it stays a best kept secret! The hotel is located on one of the beautiful islands in the Maldives. It is a local island with ~750 inhabitants and a couple of hotels. There are a few shops, ATM and restaurants at the island- all sandy roads and giving you a real local island feeling. Dhigurah is a long island and has an amazing sandy beach with palmtrees and crazy nice blue, warm water. You can have a nice walk along the beach and a great sunbathing spot at the end of it, but you can also walk 10 steps from the hotel to the postcard beach in front of the hotel. Given it’s respect for the local environment- there is no alcohol in the hotel (which was ok for me- and besides two nice sunset moments where it would have been great to have a beer; didn’t miss it and made me feel more rested). When you are walking on the island they ask you to wear cloths that cover your shoulders/to knees, but at the beach you can wear your bikini. The hotel is great and the room has all what you need during your stay - a nice huge bed, an amazing open shower, chargers for phones/cameras and good products. I normally only go to hotels with swimming pools, but didn’t miss it at all!! The team of the hotel offers a really friendly, family and professional environment. At various moments during our stay we were surprised by the staff that made us feel very special and welcomed. We had a cool coconut drink at arrival, cookies on the way back, and during our last evening a surprise meal for example. The team consists of ~15 people that all did their best to give us a great time: friendly, personal but professional and doing a good job. And then the diving/Snorkling- we didnt realise that this was a specific diving hotel, but were so happy that it was!

Nothing

Everything! The team were amazing, the accommodation was lovely and right on the beach, the food was excellent, communication was super easy, and the diving was incredible. The bathroom and room felt luxurious with lovely products, everything we needed was provided - beach towels etc. Pick up and drop off from the ferry. The island is lovely and quiet with the most stunning beach, great for relaxing afternoons after diving in the morning. The diving/snorkeling was amazing and varied. Surface intervals included snorkeling with whale sharks and manta rays. The instructors and boat team were friendly, professional, and lots of fun.

Absolutely nothing

The staff is great, the food amazing, the Indian Ocean a marvel (we've spent half of the holidays doing snorkeling and we even did a discovery diving for the first time in our lives). Above all is the attenton to every little detail of the staff: they arranged the transfer to the island, they prepared the rooms with everything we needed, including yoga mat + beach towel + moschito repellent + beach bag + umbrella (it was raining quite often, but this was not disturbing). They organized the last two dinners on the roof top terrace,. They made sure we will be picked up by the next hotel in Male and they gave us tips on souvrnir shopping. Important things to know: internet soeed is great, you can pay for all their services by credit card, us dollars are accepted if bills are issued after 2006, each evening you will get a presentation of the marine life you will see next day and you will see a video of that day's snorkeling and diving. All in one, a super great experience created by this amazing staff: Mette, Lucinda, Seb, Rami, Afraz, Cam, Dylan, the chefs, the boat crew, the guy who served the meals (so sorry I can't remember his name). All are amazing people, so warm and wecoming!

An Unforgettable Paradise: The Perfect Snorkeling and Beach Getaway I recently had the privilege of staying at this incredible beach hotel, and it was nothing short of a dream come true. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and an impeccable level of service that made me feel like royalty. The staff were genuinely kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect in every way. The hotel itself is situated close to a pristine stretch of beach that feels like a slice of heaven. The soft, powdery sand and the crystal-clear turquoise waters are picture-perfect. Whether lounging under a swaying palm tree or taking a leisurely stroll along the shore, every moment was blissful. But the highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the snorkeling excursions. The hotel offers some of the best-organized and professionally guided tours I’ve ever experienced. The guides were knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and made every effort to ensure we had an unforgettable time exploring the vibrant underwater world. The reefs were teeming with colorful marine life, from schools of tropical fish to graceful sea turtles and even the occasional stingray. It felt like swimming through a living aquarium! The accommodations were equally impressive. My room was spacious, beautifully decorated. Falling asleep there and waking up to the sunrise over the sea was a magical experience. Dining at the hotel was another highlight. The on-site restaurants served fresh, delicious meals with a variety of options to suit every palate. I particularly loved the seafood dishes, which were expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. Every detail of this boutique beach hotel has been carefully curated to provide an unforgettable experience. Whether you're looking to relax on the beach, immerse yourself in underwater adventures, or simply soak up the warm hospitality, this place has it all. I can’t recommend this hotel enough—it truly is a paradise on Earth.

Top notch diving resort with competent, friendly team that were always happy to help. Enthusiastic about making our stay everything we wanted and very helpful with organising transfers, trouble shooting etc. Served three meals a day, all were interesting and varied - delicious throughout! Several dining rooms options for all weathers. Dives were stunning, safe and well-organised by an experienced team. Mini-talks some evenings were interesting and nice added extra to learn whilst diving. Rooms were spacious, comfortable, well equipped and with beautiful outdoor showers - lots of little extras included by the thoughtful team such as reusable water bottles and beach mats for use during our stay. Swimming beach less than 1 minute away and snorkelling site was also nearby.

Everything was perfect from beginning to the end. They care a lot about the details and it really matters. Very well organized pickup from the Airport and transfer to Dhigurah island. Great welcoming experience at the hotel, clean and confortable suites with open air showers. Very professional dive center with one of the best boats in the island and amazing dive masters! They are also located in front of an amazing beach where you can relax after the dives. Everything run perfectly and they took great care of us during our short stay of 2 nights. If you’re a diver, you will love the experience! We will certainly come back!

Nothing to complain about!
