“ok-but coud be better”

Reviewed May 21, 2013 NEW

After having stayed on Sri Lanka for 4 weeks we decided to treat ourselves with a 10-night-stay on the Maldives. My brother recommended Rihiveli, based on his experiences there 2 years ago. Maybe it was because we had high expectations, maybe because we got used to the prices on Sri Lanka and loved the friendliness of the people, but we... More

“So Relaxing and Welcoming”

Reviewed May 8, 2013

I am a UK Tour Operator and will certainly be promoting trips here; first hand experience! Just 1 hour from Male by speed boat means that in most cases you don't need to stay in Male overnight either on arrival or departure. On arrival, it's 'no news, no shoes' policy, shoes in a bag and don't wear them again. Bungalows... More

“Amazing Resort”

We stayed at this resort for a day trip. All I saw was amazing. Beautiful scenery, service, and many attractions.

For dinner BBQ you need to get on a separate island, which you can access the shallow water at... More

First thing to mention is that this was my first time to Maldives so I cannot really compare with the other Maldive islands. However I have been to number of tropical islands including Anguilla, Koh Phi Phi, Koh Tao, Boracay, Perhentian, Nusa Lembongan... When it comes to beach and turquise water - Rihiveli Maldives beats them all. Location - it's... More

Thank you for your kind comment. You are right, Rihiveli is a Paradise. Simplicity, conviviality and respect of nature and of our incredible lagoon. BBQ on Sunrise Island is highly appreciated by our guests. Food is simple but of quality. You can enjoy many activities or just relax on the beach with the feeling to be alone in this paradise....
