The deluxe beachfront villa, massages and reflexology treatments, snorkeling boat trip and the pool bar were highlights, along with swimming in the perfectly clear sea.

If there’s one place that captures the essence of paradise with luxury and that too on a reasonable budget, it’s The Standard, Huruvalhi Maldives. From the moment we soared over endless turquoise waters on a seaplane, we knew we were about to experience something truly special.

Amazing and peacefull place. Fabilous beach and nice villas. Beautifully maintained territory, diverse flora and fauna. We walked about a dozen kilometers around the island and each time were fascinated by its beauty. The staff is extremly friendly. Special thanks to Tanu and Shaily for the exceptional service. Delicious variety of food and drinks. Something is even grown locally right on the island. The coral reef is quite good for snorkeling, but more suited for inexperienced observers. There is a variaty of fish, but we did not spot turtles or rays around. For something exotic consider squba diving. However you can observe small sharks by the pier every evening.

My girlfriend and I stayed one week at the Emerald. As you land onto the Emerald docks from a seaplane, the hotel's staff welcomes you with a big smile and says "welcome to paradise." Although it sounds a bit cliche, they couldn't be more right: Emerald and the Maldives are paradise on earth. I've stayed at my fair share of hotels and resorts and this one wins them all. We would like to thank the following team members at Emerald for making our stay incredible: - Dave, our host who planned everything in advance (restaurants, diving, fishing, etc) and took us wherever we wanted on the island with his golf cart. - Yossi, for making an immaculate room every single day (and sometimes multiple times a day). - Janna, for coaching through our Open Water Diver PADI. Jenna is an exceptional young lady. - Fayaz, for welcoming us to and giving a tour of the island. You can book your stay with Emerald without worries because they will make your trip unforgettable.

Dhigali took really bad good care of us from check in to checkout. Very well organized resort, great food, staff and the most amazing sunsets. Recommend fully!

Friendly staff and healthy delicious food

The staff was so nice and helpful, and I have never experienced such great service anywhere else. The resort has so many beautiful details, including in the rooms and in the restaurants. Great activities and the food options are great. We loved everything about our stay.

The staff were all very helpful. They often already knew I needed gluten-free meals, so I helped point out what I could have and what they could adapt for me. Our butler Niyaz helped us book excursions and meals and gave us interesting information on the local wildlife, which is plentiful. The complimentary snorkle equipment was the most useful thing this holiday. We spent most days going for at least one snorkle around the home reef, with its hundreds of fish species and ocean life. It was like swimming in an aquarium. We even got to see a few turtles on our swims. The cocktails were lovely, plentiful, and not weakly poured. The bed was huge and super comfortable. And we were thankful we could turn the light on the aircon unit off. The curtains even blocked out most light for sleep, which was brilliant. The back jacuzzi was wonderful, sitting in that whilst a storm rolled by with a cocktail and canapes in hand was a wonderful experience. I can not recommend enough going to Hanifaru Bay. We got to swim with feeding manta rays who came so close that they would sweep past and touch us slightly. Such giant majestic creatures, really it was a magical experience.

The place was stunning, clean all the time and everywhere, a very good answer for the price, I even say excellent. And the most important thing in this amazing place is the employees!!!! They are so amazing and nice and know how to answer any request or need and make the experience perfect
