gorgeous, newly renovated resort with lots of daily events, various excursions and facilities. Note that 1.its really close to the main airport so after long flight its great to be transferred fast&smooth 2.its connected with 2 other resorts with non stop available and free speedboats. Its important to have option for those who are after maldives can be boring. We can not thank enough Joker, a man who personally made sure our vacation goes perfectly!

Modern, clean and spcious room Clean and warm water Free snorkeling equipment Very good breakfast Wonderful lush vegetation on the island

We were not informed that during our stay the sister island (Anantara Veli) will be closed due to a private event. Because of the party the evenings and nights on our island were very noisy. Dhigu is not an island for a romantic stay for couples, rather for a great holiday for family with children.

Pristine beaches and crystal clear water. Beautiful sunsets. Friendly and helpful staff. Direct communication with the assigned agent via WhatsApp. Very convenient. Amazing food. Six different restaurants to choose from. Fushi restaurant offers a buffet with different selection every day. I highly recommend to book half board. You will save a lot. Plenty of available water activities. Scuba diving, fishing, snorkeling, dolphin tours, etc. Nice kids club with lots of activities. Outside playground and water castle. Cooking classes. Rockclimbing wall. Karaoke. Game room. You have bicycles assigned to your room. We were riding the bicycles every day around the island. You just can't can't get enough of the nature. The whole island just feels so quiet. Most of the time we hardly saw any people during the day. It almost felt like we rented the whole island.

AC stopped working on two separate nights. It was fixed within an hour both times. Nothing else to complain about.

-amazing lagoon -friendly staff -offered me complimentary boat ride and complimentary late checkout -quiet and relaxing -heated swimming pool -free bikes assigned to the room -free tea and coffee inside the room

- cleaning could be bette -furniture in the room could use some upgrading -too many cockroaches,lizards and flies

Mind blown away How can a post give this resort the proper review it deserves, I truly wonder but I’ll give it a shot so here we go. This was probably my wife and I 6th vacation spent at luxury resort across the Far East /Indian Ocean area, even the Mediterranean and hands down this is by far the BEST most memorable vacation we’ve experienced so far and credit goes entirely to the brilliant service we’ve received. Not only were the facilities and water villa we stayed at impeccable and beautiful but gosh the service we’ve received, the warmth of the staff, the attention to details, the fantastic tasty meals we’ve had - not a single food item we’ve consumed was below fantastic-. The attention and hospitality we’ve received from the resort resident manager Mr. Fernando was truly unparalleled. So friendly, professional and courteous we’ve decided to come back in 4 weeks! Shout out to Amir from the Fushi Cafe who made us feel so welcomed. We look forward to his lovely chats and seeing him again soon. To all of those perfectionists looking to spend a relaxing holiday with unparalleled luxury service, this is your go to resort. Don’t hesitate.

Very attentive staff, especially Zahid who was with us throughout our stay. Very clean facilities, including kids club. Food is good. Massage is amazing. You can go to the resort via the speedboat which I consider an advantage.

Most of public facilities don’t have air conditioning.

A big thanks to Taylor to make our trip worthwhile. Everything was good..

The buggy service was very bad, had to wait long periods a few times to get ti where we want, when Taylor wasn’t available.

Anantara Resort offers a great and spacious atoll with several islands united, providing an array of experiences imaginable. Enjoy a relaxing massage over water, go snorkeling or swimming, witness breathtaking sunsets, and immerse yourself in a secluded atmosphere that will make you feel lost for a week. A huge plus is - transportation - it just takes 30min from Anantara to the airport by boat. We were staying with a baby and it was critical (no sea planes)

Some villas may be facing docking points or ferry routs which is a little noisy.

- the cluster of islands which allows guests to have different experiences - Dhigu offers bicycles for guest to move around and I think that’s a lovely touch to the resort. Really loved my bike rides - the wide range of water sport activities - the wide range of F&B options - FANTASTIC dive centre and dive instructors: Adam, Wesam and Marta - mind blowing dive sites - most importantly, the warm and genuine service across all areas

The prices of F&B items were a bit high in some restaurants

Excellent location, only 35 minutes from the airport by speedboat and it was very easy to locate the staff at the airport. The beaches had soft white sands with clear waters all around the island which was absolutely heavenly. The staff were extra friendly and helpful and would go out of their way to help you and provide helpful tips. The resturaunts are good and varied which also includes the resturaunts in the neighbouring island Veli (run by Anantara) that you can go to by a boat that operates every 5 minutes. We particularly enjoyed the little things there like swings on the shallow water and staff making leaf hats and providing fresh coconuts across the island. The resort offers many activities, the aquafanatics center is great and has water activities for everyone that range from kayaking, parasailing, jet skiing, snorkeling and diving. Also there is a surfing and paddling center that provides lessons. The spa was absolutely incredible and a must try. The breakfast and lunch cafe were absolutely delicious with many options and excellent services. The check in and out process was so smooth and fast.

We stayed in the sunrise above water villa which was wonderful, my only complaint is that the AC was noisy but I think it is understandable considering that it is in the middle of the ocean with 70%+ humidity. There was some hidden costs which I think it's normal for resorts in the Maldives to charge for.
