Find the Cheap Feridhoo Hotels

The Maldives vacation was wonderful! Excellent Origami Inn Guest House, excellent location near the beautiful bikini beach, cleanliness, delicious breakfasts and dinners. Excellent and responsive attitude of the staff and the owner. The owners of the hotel are a family, very nice, kind, friendly and hospitable people who speak English well. They helped me in everything, met me, saw me off - just wonderful people. Aziz solved any questions and requests. Aziz organized interesting excursions to another island for us and took us diving with turtles himself. It's like we're visiting a friend! We will be happy to come next time and advise our friends! Thank you very much!!!

My sister and I recently stayed a week at Nika island. What a magical, wonderful stay we had. This is the first time just the 2 of us have been together on holiday catching up on new memories and remembering our childhood in Kenya. My sister Sue organized everything and it couldn’t have been better. This was my first visit to the Maldives and my sister’s fifth. All the staff were exceptional. The head chefs would explain the meals and advise my sister in all the meals of her choices due to her seafood allergy. The Lotus Spa delivered world class treatments. I now work as an Ayurvedic therapist and loved the treatment rooms and therapists. Everyone was so professional,kind , welcoming and friendly. I am also PADI dive Instructor (not active) and hadn’t dived for 6 years. I have worked and dived in the Red Sea, Papua Nuigini, Thailand and the UK and somehow never experienced seeing Mantas or Whale Sharks. August isn’t the season for Diving with these but you can snorkel with Mantas and we did! Life recently has thrown some hard situations for my sister and myself and having somewhere to reconnect and be immersed in nature, the sea and a location that is respectful of both was important for us. Nika island provided just this. Especially the 2 instructors and teams on the dive boat and excursions. Shatthu and Fathu are professional and incredibly knowledgeable and a credit to PADI and Nika Island. We truly did feel like we belonged to a family here. I loved all my dives and can highly recommend anyone wishing to learn from beginner to more experienced diving. Fathu did my refresh/orientation dive and was fabulous. Shatthu is the Dive Centre manager and instructor and made a dream come true by organizing a private trip to Hanufaru Bay to see the Mantas. Shattu is relaxed and experienced and you feel at total ease with their diving trips. If I was to change anything, I would have done the Nitrox course. There are Manta snorkeling trips too close to Nika. My sister and I cannot thank Shattu enough for organizing an incredible trip and making us feel so welcome. We would also like to thank the General Manager Shameed Mohamed for making our private trip possible and for the magic that is created at Nika Island Resort and Spa. This is a very special place.

We stayed at the Sunset Beach Stay guesthouse for 6 days and felt very comfortable. The rooms are new and modern and the bathroom is very nice with a rain shower. Everything is very clean and well maintained. We had booked full board. We had breakfast in the guesthouse and lunch and dinner in town at the Second Home restaurant. There was a delicious 3-course menu. The staff were very nice and helpful. You can book a variety of excursions at the guesthouse. The islanders are reserved but also very friendly. Mathiveri has a beautiful bikini beach, several shops and restaurants. All with relatively reasonable prices.

This was our first Maldives holiday in over a decade so we wanted to make sure that we chose well. I can say wholeheartedly that we did! There'd been a few less than glowing reviews in the weeks leading up to our visit and this did make us a little concerned, but the reality was that the resort fully lived up to our expectations....and more It's not one of these Dubai-style hyper-luxury resorts where everything is buffed to within an inch of its life and the staff are hot and cold running minions. It is however, extremely well maintained and lovingly looked after by a team that genuinely seem to care about the place and its guests. The staff (all of them) managed to maintain a balance between being friendly and engaging, and remaining professional. That is one heck of a balancing act. Our first names were used by some of the staff, but weren't 'worn out' from over-use like you get in some places. Again, the balance was just right (in our opinion). Also, as others have stated, some of the management team do use the bar and restaurants, but I just see it as a way of them engaging with guests, so a positive rather than an issue. On arrival we were told that our Duplex Villa (113) wasn't looking it's best due to erosion of the beach in front of it, so were offered a Pool Beach Villa (102) as an alternative. After 20+ hours of travelling we were a little put out by this, but the team couldn't have been more helpful in making sure we got the best option from our perspective. We weren't pressurised into moving and several other options were discussed. As it turned out 102 was the perfect room for us. I should also say that the conversations re the room situation were had with Monica, the General Manager, not delegated to other staff to deal with. No shirking of difficult conversations, just a willingness to work for the best outcome for the guest. Great management style. I think anyone who has been to the Maldives has probably experienced the issues that these (more natural) resorts have with erosion. It's an ongoing battle. Whilst we were there the maintenance teams were working hard to complete the sea defences to protect the beach on that side of the island. It didn't look great, I'd much rather that approach than see an island with a concrete seawall around it. Anyway, once settled into our room it became a daily round of eating, drinking, reading and snorkelling. We were on the Ultimate All Inclusive tariff and very glad we were, as it removed the 'bill shock' at the end of our stay. As others have said, there is a well stocked minibar (actually a full size wine fridge) plus another full sized fridge for soft drinks, beers etc. The range of wines was good across white, red, rose and prosecco. We didn't feel the need to go for the 'paid for' upgrades such as champagne as the choices included were perfectly adequate. The food was on the whole very good. We were particular fans of Sea Grill and ate there whenever it was ope
