Hotels Near Himandhoo in Himandhoo

We had wonderful family experience staying at Origami Inn in May 2023. The hosts of Origami Inn (Azeez and Cristina) were so kind and did everything so that our stay was as memorable and relaxing as possible. We came with a 2,5 year old son who had time of his life playing with 2 sons of our hosts and having fun on the beach. We miss you all already and hope to see you soon! :) ROOMS: The rooms are of very good quality, definitely feels like a proper european standard. This was one of the reasons we booked this place, as the rooms looked much better comparing to other guest houses and we were not disappointed. They were cleaned every day and we felt super comfortable staying there. FOOD: We had a full board option and ate so well! The food was always super fresh, fishes straight from the ocean and the fruit drinks so taaasty. We loved the lobsters as well ＜3 STAFF: We met Rowena and Melisa and they were so kind! Thank you again for all that tasty food and taking such a good care of us and our son while diving ＜3 BEACH: There is a very nice bikini beach 1 min walk from the guesthouse. Lots of white sand, beautiful Maldivian color water :) and nearby reef. DIVING: Thanks to Azeez who is a dive master, we basically saw everything we could ask for under water. Mantas, different sharks, turtles, napoleons, eagle rays, sting rays, octopuses, beautiful corals and hundreds of fish types. Azeez knows the ocean around like his own pocket and each dive spot was picked perfectly. OVERALL: Best value for money you can find in all Maldives. Highly recommend to everyone. We will definitely come back :)

The staff had a very nice smile and was impressive. There were many kinds of meals, and the menu changed a little from day to day. The hotel is perfect for sightseeing.

We went to Kandolhu for 3 nights as part of our honeymoon in the Maldives and WOW what an experience. The food and service is truly world class. The rooms are beautifully designed with absolutely everything you might need. We did the top all inclusive package which we would really recommend - everything you can think of is included, including a wine fridge in your room! Particular highlights were the Mexican restaurant - the best tacos and ceviche we have ever had - Astrid is a star! Waiter Ameen was also fantastic - he looked after us for dinner at the fabulous teppanyaki restaurant (the chefs were fantastic - this is a must do!) as well as at the seafood feast evening. The spa is beautiful with amazing staff - would really recommend spending some time there. We stayed in a beach villa, but if you can, we would recommend getting a villa with a pool as there are no communal pool spaces. While you can obviously just swim in the sea, the reef at Kandolhu is incredibly vibrant - with tonnes more sharks, fish and rays than we have seen elsewhere in the Maldives. Obviously they won't hurt you, but sometimes you do just want a float in the water to cool off with nothing else there!! BUT if you are into snorkelling and diving this has to be one of the best places in the world. The management couple are also lovely and really make an effort to get to know all of the visitors. Given the island is so small you really will feel a personalised touch, with all of the staff knowing your names and dietaries etc. Finally, to point out the obvious, this is a TINY island - you will need books and games etc - prepare to do nothing during your stay here! It was the perfect end to our honeymoon and is the ideal location for couples looking to celebrate something special.
