Whaleshark Beach

Dhigurah

Boasting a garden, Whaleshark Beach is situated in Dhigurah in the Ari Atoll region, 100 metres from Dhigurah North West Beach. Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, a 24-hour front desk and a lift, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The guest house has family rooms and facilities for disabled guests. Where to even begin… our stay at Whale Shark Beach is one we will not forget. The staff were so accommodating and friendly for our entire stay. They always welcomed us back from our excursions or just afternoons out on the beach and always wanted to know what we had done that day. The food was immaculate and we ended up eating at the hotel every night so we could keep trying things off the menu. The rooftop dining area is especially lovely, it’s nice to be able to see the stars during the evening. The excursions team were absolutely incredible. We saw dolphins, turtles, various reefs and had an unforgettable experience swimming with manta rays. The team were also incredibly generous and allowed us to join two additional manta ray and whale shark trips for no additional cost after we had not seen them initially. The boat was well equipped and the team were incredibly focussed on guest safety in the water as well as enjoyment. Another key thing that we applaud the excursions team on is ensuring the safety and well being of the wild animals we saw whilst out on the sea. The boat engine was immediately turned off as soon as we saw dolphins and they kept a good distance away instead of chasing and harassing the animals. Additionally, prior to one of our whale shark tours we were briefed on how to swim with the animal safely and were reminded that if anyone tried to touch or swim to close to the animal they would be removed from the water. As someone who works in marine animal conservation, I applaud the team at Whale Shark Beach for putting the animals first and ensuring that both them and the guests could have a safe and enjoyable experience. The room was lovely. The bed was the most comfortable bed I’d ever slept in and very spacious. The television also had smart options available to watch Netflix or Amazon Prime which was a big bonus.

AYIRA Maldives

Feridhoo

At the guest house, every unit has a desk. Featuring a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries, units at the guest house also offer free WiFi, while some rooms are equipped with a patio. At the guest house, each unit is equipped with bed linen and towels. Ayira stood out as a perfect 10 on the reviews for Feridhoo accommodations, so I had to find out what that experience was like. Amjad and his staff fully delivered a world class personable experience. Highly recommend. With less than 3 weeks to plan 2 weeks as part of a 2 month long excursion with plans to travel to 7 countries, I came to Feridhoo to do my Scuba Open Water Certification with a local PADI 5-star Dive Center for a whole week on Feridhoo as my first destination and was a great way to kick off my trip. The local diving is a great experience for a new or beginner divers, and getting to experience diving with mild/medium current. My stay at Ayira was an extremely pleasant experience from the initial boat transfer as soon as I got off the plane to the very last day on the island. Amjad and the entire staff there made sure my needs were taken care of and they were extremely accommodating. The entire experience at the hotel was essentially timed around other guests to make it feel like I was the only person at the hotel, even with other guests staying there. I I was treated like a guest at someone’s home and was well taken care of and treated like family. The rooms were spacious, beds were comfortable and bathrooms were clean, and I had a private outdoor drying area to hang my wet beach wear. The WiFi internet was great for Maldives! The meals prepared by staff at Ayira were delectable with a variety of dinner options. The breakfast was plenty enough to charge up for two 50 minute dives. On the beach, I was given a secluded lounge chair away from other beach chairs for other hotels, and the Feridhoo sunsets were out of this world. When I typically travel, I normally look at for specific locations and book the nearly the most economical accommodation, or an Airbnb, and do my own cooking. This time around for the Maldives I knew services, such as a grocery store, were limited like most islands in the Maldives.
