Resort Intro
Dhigufaru Island in the Maldives is located within the UNESCO-designated Baa Atoll Biosphere Reserve. Access to the island can be achieved via seaplane from Velana International Airport in Male, with a flight duration of approximately 40 minutes; alternatively, travelers may first fly domestically to Dharavandhoo Airport (about 20 minutes), then transfer by speedboat for roughly 10 minutes to reach the island. The resort operates at a four-star standard, situated on a compact island spanning 35,000 square meters. It features 83 guest rooms across 10 distinct room types. In 2024, the property introduced new Pool Beach Villas and Pool Water Villas, offering competitive pricing.
Room options include 10 semi-water villas (also known as Lagoon Villas), whose design features half the structure built on the beach and the other half extending into the sea—completely submerged during high tide. Additionally, there are 50 water villas and 30 beachfront villas, catering to diverse accommodation preferences.
Island Features: ① The surrounding waters are frequented by manta rays, dolphins, and whale sharks. ② The island has a small sandy tail end. ③ Several uninhabited islets are scattered around the area. ④ A natural lagoon forms a sheltered ocean pool ideal for beginners and children. ⑤ The 2024 additions of Pool Beach Villas and Pool Water Villas offer excellent value in the current market.
Environmental Constraints: Snorkeling conditions are moderate, though the lagoon area offers excellent views and is considered a natural swimming zone.
