**WARNING - CHECK BEFORE YOU BOOK THAT THE AIRPORT THEY ARE BUILDING ON THE NEIGHBOURING ISLAND HASN'T YET COMMENCED FLIGHTS. IF NOT, DO GO, THIS PLACE IS WONDERFUL BUT IT WILL BE RUINED BY THE AIRPORT ON MALMAAGILI ISLAND. AS OF DECEMBER 2009 THE RUNWAY WAS TARMACED BUT FLIGHTS HAD NOT YET COMMENCED."" Holiday Island is a delightful and beautifully... more

What can I say, this is complete paradise. This was my first trip to the Maldives and have to admit it was my girlfriend that wanted to go but from the moment we stepped off the sea plane I was glad I booked it and had a brilliant holiday. The island is small and you can walk round it within... more

We have visited Holiday Island many times over the past couple of years and we truly thought it was our second home. We have many friends working there and are always happy to see them as indeed they are to see us. The service provided by the waiters room boys etc was as always excellent but unfortunately the management was... more

Whilst not one of the most expensive hotels in the Maldives or one of the most luxurious if it's white sands and a warm seas you want you can't go wrong. Its a small island with very little to do except relax/eat/snorkel. The rooms are all next to the ocean, each with its own bit of beach. The restaurant serves... more

Just returned from HI and I can only say it was a great experience. As most of the previous comments suggested this is not a 5*+ luxury resort like Taj Exotica or Conrad, but then again what is the point of spending 4-6.000 USD for a week - unless of course money is not a problem. So for a good... more

A bit late writing this, but wanted to leave a review the place does deserve it. This was our first time to the Maldives, and we spent a long time looking at all the different Islands and what they had in the way of facilities. From reading many reviews here on T/A we were convinced that we would want A/I,... more

Holiday Island.. Let me start the review by saying that if you are looking for 4 or 5 star, by European standards then dont choose this island. However, if you want a small, friendly island that has basic amenities and offers an absolutely amazing beach and lagoon then this is the place for you. The island does not have a... more

Just wanted to give a fair review, as trying to find the right Maldives holiday can be confusing, especially if you are booking last minute as we did. First of all this is an amazing island, paradise on earth. With stunning white sands, turquoise blue waters, excellent swimming area, and stunning sea views from every beach bungalow. We were pleasently... more

We returned from a weeks holiday on Holiday Island back in November and were a little disapointed. We chose to go All Inclusive as it is so much easier to not have to worry about the cost of getting drinks or the odd snack when you feel like it. This idea was dispelled very quickly when we were asked to... more
