Boasting a private beach area and a restaurant, Summer Island Maldives is located in North Male' Atoll. The property features an infinity pool, as well as a 24-hour fitness centre.

Booking reviews helped me when I was making my decision, so I hope my feedback helps someone else too. Everything was just perfect! We spent our honeymoon here and loved every moment. The island is beautifully maintained, and you can truly feel the care and effort put into it. The staff is incredible—kind, friendly, and always ready to help. The water is crystal-clear, and the sunsets and sunrises look like something out of a movie—simply breathtaking. We met many German guests, both young and old, and they were all very polite and quiet, adding to the peaceful atmosphere. The island has no loud party vibes, just pure relaxation, love, and respect. Being surrounded by nature here feels truly healing. This trip was unforgettable, and Inshallah, we will return for an even longer stay. Helpful Tips: • Bring your own snorkeling equipment if you have it, or rent it on-site. • The sun is very strong—use the highest SPF sunscreen possible. • Carry some cash for tipping the hardworking staff. • The food is good, but if you’re on a half-board plan, bringing some small snacks can make your stay even more comfortable. We stayed in a Superior Beach Villa just 20 meters from the shore—absolute perfection! Best location ever.

Situated in North Male Atoll, VARU by Atmosphere - Premium All Inclusive with Free Transfers offers beachfront accommodation and provides various facilities, such as a restaurant, a bar and a garden.

The resort was excellent, and we were looked after the moment we arrived at the airport. Our boat pick up, ride and arrival experience was smooth and welcoming. Our room overlooking the lagoon was beautiful and we could snorkel directly off our ladder. We were lucky enough to see a range of tropical fish, reef sharks and a sting ray. The daily snorkel trips to the reef were also excellent. We couldn't fault the food, drinks and service and there were plenty of options and restaurants to choose from. All staff were attentive, friendly and always happy to assist.

Situated in North Male Atoll in the Kaafu Atoll Region, 42 km from Male City, Eriyadu Island Resort features a spa centre and fitness centre. Guests can enjoy the on-site restaurant and outdoor pool.

I loved my 6-night stay at Eriyadu. Nice small island with a house reef all the way around. The reef is mostly brown, as elsewhere, but hundreds of colourful fish, moray eels, turtles and sharks (harmless). The food is good. Mainuddin took great care of my room and, as a solo traveller, I appreciated our chats. This is my fourth visit to the Maldives and this was one of my favourite islands.

Facing the beachfront, Oaga Art Resort Maldives - Greatest All Inclusive Plan with Free Speedboat Round-trip offers 5-star accommodation in North Male Atoll and features a garden, private beach area...

Island is small and felt quite private. it was only at ~60% capacity when we were there so it was very quiet and relaxing (I think it will not feel super busy even at full capacity, which I was told is around 100 guests) The staff is amazing (it really is!) and we where very happy with our stay. Facilities were ok, but being a small resort there is only 1 main restaurant and 1 other a-la-carte restaurant that serves more or less the same food. There is no concrete on the island so your feet are always on sand the moment you step outside your room (there was wood floor inside our room). Room was decorated nicely and had all the facilities. outdoor shower was awesome (and still very private... don't worry). the main bar and at the pool is were all the entertainment is (there could be more of it in my opinion). The Pool is nice but not massive. Food was good (we were all-inclusive. which I recommend as there is effectively only 1 place to eat in there!). but see variety was not great. great indian curries, great stir-fries, ok pizza ok pasta and good grilled meat/fish (tuna) pretty much every day. the staff, considering the size of the island, they go the extra mile to arrange small activities to keep guests occupied, not a lot overall but cooking class was good and the art class was also cool. There is a small shop in the island... which has got very little in it... so bring everything you need! (but I am sure the staff will be able to accommodate any request) Would I go back? for sure! I loved it! but if the weather is bad... there is really nothing to do in there... so bear this in mind.

An all-villa resort, Jumeirah Olhahali Island stands out for its contemporary Mediterranean design and spectacular location, nestled in the crystalline waters of the North Malé Atoll.

the staff were very friendly and specially Thariq who assisted us in everything and manage our stay to be perfect. although they have 3 restaurants i believe they should have the option of buffet not only a la cat menus however the food taste was excellent

Boasting an outdoor swimming pool, OBLU SELECT at Sangeli- All Inclusive is located in North Male Atoll.

Beautiful resort and facilities with friendly staff. Food and Beverage options were great. Activities are pre-booked by resort and managed in their app, review this early in your stay as if you need to make changes and resort is at capacity it can get tricky for them to accommodate changes. Overwater Villa with pool was amazing. House reef snorkeling was fantastic!

    Beautiful little beach. Not a big resort so nothing crowded, beach, dining area etc. The best bit .... the staff. From different parts of the world they were all friendly, efficient & helpful all the time.

    Absolutely brilliant location. Diving and snorkeling is some of the best I have seen in the Maldives. The food was exceptional, worthy of awards. The staff was overwhelmingly friendly and helpful. Anwar our server was exceptional. Marco the dive instructor was brilliant. This was a vacation to remember. We will definitely come back. The resort would deserve 6 stars if that were possible. There is no pool or gym, but honestly with the house reef so vibrant and the water so warm, who needs those things.

    It was an exceptional experience at Makunudu Resort, from the staff, to the hospitality, stay, food and the views. Couldn’t have asked for anything more! Special thanks to Anandu at the front desk, Bhaskar at the restaurant and Sushil at the bar. Would definitely visit again.

    Dinners were very good. Impressed with the variety food and quality of service. For such a small island and not being a "fancy" Maldives resort, the dinners were a bright spot. The bar area is also quite comfortable. Drinks in the bar are a bit expensive, but the atmosphere is comfortable and the bartenders are are very nice once you get to know them. Beach near the dock area has soft sand is good for swimming.
