Martin Andreassen
Spent a wonderful week in this fantastic resort. As Dhigurah is far from Male getting there took 55 minutes by flight and then a 10 minutes boat ride- but it was all worth it.
Staff were extremely friendly and helpful and we felt like kings all week. Our villa was very clean, spacious and had a nice view. Restaurants were really good and will be reviewed separately. We really liked the bikes which made it easy to transport yourself to all facilities on both islands. If you did not care to bike, the hotel would pick you up.
Unfortunately we were not lucky with the weather, with only a few sunny days. But that was of course not the fault of the hotel.
Can really recommend the place!

The rooms are clean, and the service is excellent. The food spread in the dining room is both good and delicious, complemented by the friendly and cheerful staff from Hafiz's team, who always greet us with warm smiles.

I got the most pleasant trip here and felt comfortable to enjoy any water sports and activities. If lucky enough, you can see a sea turtle during snorkeling.

The Residence Dhigurah is located on an idyllic paradise island, lovely stylish rooms, all with private pools. There are two islands joined by a kilometre bridge, you can dine around on both and foid is lovely. Cycles provided at each villa, also paddle boarding, canoes and a great house reef for snorkelling, although you can see reef sharks, turtles and stingrays passing by if you are in one of the lagoon or overwater villas.
