Warm, friendly staff. Committed to helping guests get the best experience of Dharavandhoo and the neighbouring islands. Staff & guides are knowledgeable about the tides and behaviour of manta rays and whale sharks. After 3 attempts over 3 days, the weather and tide finally made it possible for us to swim with about 50 manta rays and 2 whale sharks at Hanifaru Bay. Exhilarating experience.

Wet toilet floor after a shower. Alerted the management. I hope they rectify the problem and prevent future guests from slipping & falling

Right on the bikini beach, with beautiful maintained garden between the building and the beach, used also for dinning. Many beach chairs and swings, including ones in shade. The food was the best we had on our trip. Rooms were nice, fridge and AC working well, drinking water available in the room. All the people very friendly and helpful! Arranged the flight back to Male and when it was canceled, dealt with the provider to take us via seaplane instead. We loved it. Thank you for everything!

We had no issue with it but be aware the the window of deluxe room opens into hallway. Standard rooms face the garden and beach. There was quite a lot of coral in the bay formed when the stone barriers have been built but you could find places to swim without shoes too.

Stay at LVIS Blancura was comfortable and the staff were accomodating . The chef was kind enough to make the mains as per our requirements .

The bathroom always gave a foul smell . The guest house is right on the bikini beach but the beach is nothing special at all . With the sand wall in front of the beach it doesn't give you the feel at all. Infact if you're not diving at all in the baa atoll area like Hanifaru Bay ,etc. avoid Dharvandhoo by all means . Stay at Maalhos island instead it has a beautiful beaches and hardly 10 minutes boat ride from Dharvandhoo .

The location of the hotel is perfect, directly on a nice beach and with plenty of lush trees to protect from the sun. The staff was super friendly, meeting all our requests and instantly solving a couple of problems we had. Lunch on the beach was great value for money. If you look for a luxury resort, you should go elsewhere, but if you are happy with a basic accommodation, this is perfect, highly recommended.

If there is something I would suggest to improve a bit is the quality of breakfast. Although it was fine, it was not at the level of lunch, which was indeed great. This though took nothing away from our very positive experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The rooms are really nice and the staff are so helpful. The food was great and varied, buffet style with plenty of choice. Free tea and coffee all day long if you want it as well as fresh water. The beach is lovely and the house reef has very good snorkelling with masses of fish life including rays and moray eels…. even black tip ref sharks occasionally. Dharavandhoo island is small and quaint but there is not much to see outside of the resort area. However the scuba diving is fantastic with Dharavandhoo Divers - thanks Jesse and Faari for two days of great diving - some of the best I have experienced. In summary - you Di not need to visit a $1000 a day resort island to enjoy the Maldives. With a direct 30 minute flight from Male straight into Dharavandhoo airport, combined with a stay at LVIS Blsncura, you can’t go wrong.

Mosquitos - come prepared but the hotel also provides mosquito repellent.

Had a lovely stay at this hotel, where the staff seemed to have mastered the art of smiling. Seriously, they’re always beaming at you, which is a pretty great way to start the day! They even sorted out my flight tickets from Malé, so I didn’t have to lift a finger, making my trip a breeze. But the highlight? Watching dolphins casually swim by right in front of the hotel! Talk about a room with a view.

For the price, I was hoping for a bit more magic at breakfast. It would’ve been nice to see some more variety and, please, real coffee instead of instant. After seeing dolphins, I think my taste buds deserve the same level of excitement!

Very helpful and friendly staff ( biggest asset to the hotel) and it overrides the negatives Right in front of the beach and coral reef Pick up and drop off at airport was organised by hotel which is great Snorkelling Excursions off the shore which were organised by the hotel felt safe and was accompanied and supported well ( we had one person who was not very good with swimming but felt safe )

Tv was not working and had to change rooms Hot water is not consistently available Bathroom has no ventilation nor extractor Food could do with more choice and variation

The staff at any property make our stay good or bad. This was such an excellent staff who worked together to make our visit a joy! No request was impossible and we felt pampered beyond our expectations. Being met at the airport by Sumesh at night was a great start. The head waiter Biraj was so welcoming and did a great job of advising us of ingredients in the food as we have a strict vegetarian diet. The chef made us fresh oatmeal every morning and accommodated special requests easily. He even made us cake with our eggs! Food is important so we have great appreciation for all of them. Boat rides out to see rays and colorful reefs were a treat and affordable. One of the kind owners was our guide and pointed out rays, sharks, octopuses and things we might have missed without him. Our last night Biraj traced a large heart in the sand by the water and they lined it with candles. Our dinner table was placed inside the heart. It was so thoughtful and the whole staff was so friendly and attentive! We felt like we’re were at a fancy resort being treated like royalty by men who enjoyed their work and did it lovingly. I could go on and on but you have to go have your own experience with this special place. I know we’ll be back again.

We liked everything!

It located in the good area. The little beaches are nice and clean. Walk a little bit and you can see the sunset. Snorkelling can be very interesting just in front of your room. Staff are very nice and helpful. I also like that they have plenty of trees between the accommodation and the beach. In the day time it can feel really good under the tree shade with ocean breeze.

None

Staff was super friendly. Room was fine but less spacious as shown on the pictures. Beach super, nice housereef Nice excursions with experiences personell

Llittle gap in the sliding door which makes it possibble to look inside from the outside en vica versa. Thin walls, sounds from outside and from other rooms, although not super loud. Maybe a little bit more variance in dinner and breakfast, although food was good.
