The diving was expensive and this was not a surprise, the instructors were excellent and very attentive, we could not fault them... The night snorkel was very average and I would not recommend it and at $160, expensive... The other 2 snorkel trip on offer were again average, Nemo Island did have a lot of fish however at nearly $300 for the two of us there was not much more than could be seen around the house reef...

    ...We received an amazing welcome when we arrived and so nice to see all the familiar faces we had gone to love on our first visit . Last time it was just myself and friend this time I took my 13 year old daughter and my friend took her husband ... We stayed in the over water villas with pools ... Alex who i believe is the manager is simply amazing and incredibly attentive nothing is too much trouble and they really looked after my daughter ... On our last night we had a beautifully decorated table he went to so much effort ... The chef who cooked the curries outside ( sorry I don’t know his name ) was such a happy guy and again nothing was too much trouble ... We spent most of our mornings by the pool and we were well looked after by saeed and haneef ... Saeed spoke very good English and was easy to interact with very funny and so attentive... My daughter lost her glasses whilst in the ocean and Ovvi from dive centre went out and god knows how managed to find them …... He was great with my daughter and accompanied her on jet ski ride due to her age ... Mama , what can I say was amazing as always made should we were ok spent time with us which was nice... He was our butler on previous visit and we requested him again this time... Our experience at the Dusit would not be the same without this man ... He is professional, caring , friendly so funny and looked after us all the time nothing was ever too much trouble ...

    ...The entire experience right from the airport pick up up to the airport drop was smooth and perfectly well coordinated. Upon arrival at Male International Airport, we were greeted by the Dusit Thani personnal and were transferred to the business lounge while we waited for the seaplane to arrive... The seaplane transfer is a 35 min journey from the airport to the resort and it was a new and a different experience for us... The staff are very friendly, polite and accomodating... The dive center is a great place and has experienced and professional divers... We happened to try out the Spa too, which was a relaxful experience... A 4 night stay is preferrable over a 3 nights for a comfortable stay... Thank you Dusit Thani and Team for making our honeymoon a pleasant one and memorable... P.S - Special mention to two personnel... Firstly, Mr. Nizam, our butler, helped making sure our entire experience at the island was fun by coordinating activities and people... Secondly, Novika from the Benjarong restaurant is a very friendly and energectic human...

Post taking the sea plane we landed in mudhadhoo island of dusit Thani by 2.45 pm local time where I was greeted by dusits traditional welcome and Muhey my butler was introduced to me... Muhey was a wonderful man who knew the island very well also I was traveling with both my kids so he took very good care of my needs at the island... There were quite a lot of staff in this property who did make a difference and I am compelled to remember and write their names here post Muhey there were Prakash and Mohan in the market the Indian chefs who catered to my Indian cravings for the entire stay with a smile and always better suggestions then there was a young lad humam in the the market who constantly came and played with my little ones to make them feel at home and also was a wonderful server.then there was Haneef a old timer at the sand bar who provided and suggested extremely wonderful cocktails during my stay.and lastly one thing which I liked of dusit was that they even had a gentleman waiting at the airport to get my departure processing done which was something that most places miss but they were bang on with the minute details... So all in all a wonderful property excellent staff and a must visit for all...

    ...The staff is excellent and my 8year old son made friends with everyone. They take amazing care of kids…he had a blast!... The Dive center trainers are friendly and created an excellent experience for someone snorkelling for the first time... It took just 10-15mins via speed boat to reach the Manta ray!... The food at the Market was delicious, and all there servers were so attentive, even the chefs were personalising food to our tastes... Our butler Ajaa took very good care of us...

    We had the most incredible stay at the Dusit Thani Maldivies. The service was second to none and personal touch was really special... Upon arrival we were introduced to our personal butler Hassan who was really accommodating and looked after all of our needs... We never needed to phone or speak to anyone else in regards to reservations or bookings... He was great always checking in on us and helping us to ensure we got the best out of our stay... We felt we had a real personal connection with so many of the staff who all took the time to talk to us and were all exceptionally kind to our daughter... It was fantastic walking into a restaurant and before we even said hello the staff knew all of names and dietary requirements... A special mention as well as Hassan must go to Sammy who really looked after us while dinning in the restaurant making special gifts for the girls and sharing stories with us We enjoyed the snorkeling and could easily access the coral within minutes of leaving our room... The spa was one of the best we visited creating a truly Zen experience... The food never let us down and they always offered to change things to our requirements nothing was too much trouble... We only used the kids club a couple times for a short burst but they were very kind and has lots of activities for the children... We look foward to visiting again and would like to thank Jacques and his whole team for creating a fabulous environment for us to enjoy our holiday...

    ...The staff at Dusit Thani make all the difference, they get all the big things right. Spotless resort, Flawless service (they couldn’t do enough for you), amazing food, highly organized and attentive, kids club was brilliant my kids loved the huge range of activities... What makes this resort so special is all the little touches... Four bikes delivered on the first day totally complimentary, such a fun way to get around the island, bespoke sea life shaped pancakes for the kids every morning, appetizers, the fact that all the staff remember all your names, the management always checking in to see how you are getting on, huge effort put into Halloween, manta ray teddy for the kids, Dusit Thaini beach bag... The most impressive part was our butler Shintia, she was so friendly, so attentive and nothing was too much trouble...

    ...The entire team at Dusit Maldives have been truly outstanding , from the guys at the market Peek A Boo ( shahid ) ,Samih, Ahmed & Husam and the two wonderful ladies front of house . Including the chefs who were always so welcoming and helpful ... Peek a Boo , Ahmed ,Samih & Husam really went the extra mile and were always so happy and accommodating they really made our holiday and we looked forward to seeing them at breakfast and dinner ... These guys are truly a credit to the Dusit and work incredibly hard... Our Butler Riyaz was hilarious and was super helpful and went over and above !... Always made sure we got back to the villa safe and put up with our playful antics ... When we come back again Riyaz would certainly be our requested butler ... He is a playful yet professional guy who went out of his way to make sure we felt welcomed and joined in with all our playfulness... He was a good sport and can see he is well liked and respected at the resort ... She was the first person I remember seeing when we arrived and gave such a warm welcome and again we had the pleasure of her company at the managers cocktail evening ... House keeping ( I am really sorry I do not know his name ) he was so sweet , very polite and did a great job of keeping the room clean , very helpful... Pool bar staff : So attentive and happy really made our days by the pool enjoyable ... He has sent me a couple of quotes for returning in April and I appreciate the time he has spent ... he takes customer service to a whole new level... You can see he has the respect of the staff and that he is well liked... We were truly made to feel welcome and important and didn't want to leave , the resort is stunning , the water villas were spacious and so clean ...

    ...The ocean water villa was excellent and prepared everyday by fantastic staff, the pool on the water villa was a new aspect for us and we loved it. The service and food were off the scale good... The attention to detail and quality of the food was fantastic, a nice selection of wine and the service again was a very very high standard... The diving was expensive and this was not a surprise, the instructors were excellent and very attentive, we could not fault them...

The Sea Grill serves high quality dishes with style, including fish, steaks, pasta, salads, etc for both lunch and dinner... No review of Dusit Thani is complete without mentioning the amazing staff who looked after us with such care and attention... Every single person we came across seemed to be very proud of the resort and wanted to make our experience as special as possible...

    We are a family of 4 and we had an amazing stay at Dusit. Transfer at Male airport was very quick, literally 5 mins... Once we reached the resort, we were introduced to our butler, Muhey (?... ), who was our first contact for any trip booking or restaurant booking... He was extremely helpful and just maintained the right level of contact and communication with us... He quickly sorted any request we had, like putting a child seat or arranging additional cycle... Staff at diving centre were great in general, we used them for scuba diving, snorkelling, sunset cruise (we could see Dolphins) and fishing trip... We booked on to Manta on call but no Mantas when we were there... For fishing trip, they informed us sea is choppy... Staff at Market and Benjarong are great... Ladies at the front desk always welcomed us with a smile... Staff were engaging and tried to find out if we needed anything or why we are not ordering desert or if needed one more drink... In comparison, quite disappointed with Sea Grill, they just fell short of expectation set by staff at Market and Benjarong... We used Sand Bar and it is a very nice place to spend some mornings/ evenings and again staff are great here... All the staff were very helpful and tried to engage in a conversation... First day, I was surprised when their senior member of staff stopped their vehicle and started conversation by calling my name!... Two Nepali/ Indian guys at the jetty near dive centre were great and helpful...

    ...Our butler Nizam was great and kept us up to date with things we had booked and things he thought we may like. Loved that we could WhatsApp or call Nizam at anytime for help... Food at the more casual eatery market was great, A warm welcome from Mona and the wonderful Fizal who was our waiter for our stay... And chefs stations to whip up fresh egg for brekkie and pastas for dinner... We signed up for Manta on call and we got the call just 3 days into our trip... Our villa attendant Nishan was fabulous and his bed decorations really do deserve medals ... He was very attentive and we learned much about the Maldives from him... Dusit Thani Maldives really has perfected the art of a warm welcome and great hospitality and I would recommend to anybody who values the personal touch ...

    Good and clean accommodation, the pillow is too soft and thin. There are 3 good restaurants and good service, friendly staff especially Benjarong staff and the spa... We expect there are sandals provided in the room (not just slippers) so some of us didn’t bring it, but there is a shop selling everything we need... Specially thanks for my birthday surprise, birthday cake and nice natural art bed decoration on my birthday night, very impressed...

    Dusit Tani really is „home away from home“!... It started with a great experience arriving by seaplane and a very nice welcome by the Dusit Tani staff... The resort itself is located on a very nice island with lots of trees which provide shade and a home for local animals like flying foxes... We had a spacious Deluxe Beach Villa with Pool which provided a beautiful view of the colorful sea... Snorkeling was quite easy as the house reef was quick to reach and provided a huge variety of colorful fish... Finns, masks and swimming vests can be borrowed at the dive center for free... The breakfast buffet offers so many different dishes that sometimes it was hard for us to choose what to eat as everything looked and was simply delicious... A highlight for our 5 year old were definitely the personally “designed” pancakes!... Each day different excursion and activities are offered and many are complementary...

    ...The resort is perfect for families with children and couples too! The resort is on a beautiful island with lots of trees, when you drive through by bicycles (which are available in every villa), it's like driving through a wondeful forest... The accommodation is so beautiful, the cleanliness is excellent, everything is cared with love... Every guest has own butler, Mr.Nizam take care about us, nothing was a problem, he will arrange everything immediately, very pleasant, helpful and always smiling... The service in the three restaurants and two bars was incredibly fast and very friendly... The Baa atoll for snorkeling is full of beautiful fish, turtles, sharks (they are vegetarian :)), the greatest experience was swimming with manta!... Dusit Thani resort is dream holiday, realy luxury level...

    We absolutely love coming to this Dusit Thani island resort... We felt so well looked after and safe... We stayed in a beach villa which is large, comfortable and well-equipped and has a delightful outside bathroom... The three restaurants, The Benjarong (Thai), the Sea Grill, The Market (buffet) and the Sand Bar all provide excellent menus and drinks and the service is exceptional... The managers, butlers, chefs and waiters are so helpful and friendly that many we now regard as friends... The island is beautifully kept and the surrounding reef provides exciting and safe snorkelling and it is also good to know that the island’s owners actively care very much for the environment...

    ...The entire experience right from the airport pick up up to the airport drop was smooth and perfectly well coordinated. Upon arrival at Male International Airport, we were greeted by the Dusit Thani personnal and were transferred to the business lounge while we waited for the seaplane to arrive... The staff are very friendly, polite and accomodating... The resort boasts a beautiful coastline and a house-reef, which we were fortunate to explore while snorkelling and while scuba diving... The dive center is a great place and has experienced and professional divers... We happened to try out the Spa too, which was a relaxful experience... The honeymoon package is a good deal for those looking to travel as there are many good deals and freebies included... A 4 night stay is preferrable over a 3 nights for a comfortable stay... Thank you Dusit Thani and Team for making our honeymoon a pleasant one and memorable... Firstly, Mr. Nizam, our butler, helped making sure our entire experience at the island was fun by coordinating activities and people...

    Just spent 8 fabulous days at the Dusit Thani... However having narrowed it down we settled on The Dusit Thani and it lived up to expectations... From the moment you arrive you are taken such good care of... The rooms are beautifully appointed, the staff incredibly warm and friendly (special mentions to Mona, Amila and the wonderful Saeed) and the resort was very well kept and designed... One of the bonuses of the island is it has its own house reef so the snorkelling is amazing... There is a lovely pool and bar area where you can relax or you can choose to relax in your rooms with the sea or your own pool right there in front of you... The three restaurants offer a wide and varied menu and a good choice of wine and drinks...

Each room has a butler that are very friendly and helpful... There is an all day menu by the main pool... Also Thai and Italian restaurant and buffet area too... Kids club is like a mini school, indoor area and play ground and our kids loved it there... Gave us time to go to ‘Manta excursion’ !!... They don’t charge you if we don’t see Manta, nice and fair...

    ...The resort itself offers exactly the right balance of luxury and comfort while still retaining a feeling of barefoot traditional Maldivian hospitality. We stayed in one of the beautiful water villas, which had all the facilities you would expect in 5 star accommodation along with a good sized plunge pool on the deck and direct access to the reef for our daily snorkelling excursions... Access to the reef wall was relatively easy and close to the villa, across the shallower reef top, and the rich variety of fish, turtles, reef sharks, etc... Buffet breakfast at the Market Restaurant was 5 star standard with a good selection from all parts of the world... The Pure Indulgence dine around option allowed us to eat at all three restaurants... The Sea Grill serves high quality dishes with style, including fish, steaks, pasta, salads, etc for both lunch and dinner... Meanwhile the Benjarong Thai restaurant serves an exquisite menu of Thai dishes both at lunch time and dinner... Every single person we came across seemed to be very proud of the resort and wanted to make our experience as special as possible...

Beach Bungalow with Pool is a place to relax. As the island isn´t so small you can also jogging or bike around the island. The Spa Menu is perfect including massages and complimentary yoga sessions. The butler was really helpful and the waiters are all very friendly. Best breakfast buffet ever! The sushi bar and the Thai restaurant have lovely tasting food.

Dusit Thani Maldives had the beauty of the Maldives with the peacefulness and tranquility of Thai culture. We had daily yoga on the beach, walked through island forests, the best food, and the best snorkeling we’ve ever seen, leaving right from our deck. Special thanks to Bianca our butler/consierge and Janejit our yoga instructor.

We had a memorable 25th wedding anniversary at Dusit Thani. We stayed in the 2 bedroom ocean overwater villa which was modern and spacious. The reef is spectacular and bountiful right by our bungalow and we spent hours snorkelling with the abundant varieties of marine life including eagle rays, sting rays, white tip reef sharks, turtles and zillions of beautifully coloured fish, coral and clams. We were also lucky to see a turtle during our snorkel. The staff are very friendly and obliging. Saeed, our butler took care of our every need. They spoiled us on our anniversary by taking us to an exclusive trip to an idyllic sandbank for an afternoon picnic, swim and snorkel. Ishmat and Riew looked after us very well on the sandbank trip. We also had an exclusive beach bbq dinner where they fed us the freshest and tastiest food. Alex quickly learned that we preferred fresh seafood, salads and fruit and catered accordingly. Faisal at breakfast showered us with plates of delicious fresh mango and mangosteen. Mohammed looked after our water bungalow and provided lots of fresh water every day which we needed after the long snorkels. The ladies at the spa were very good with the couples massage, facial and foot massage. Sajit, our Japanese chef came over and talked to us and catered to dishes how we liked them. We also loved the setting of the sauna and steam room at the spa. There are so many other waiters who looked after us very well whose names I do not recall, unfortunately. The team at Dusit Thani looked after us very well. We’ll definitely be back!

Pros: 1. Beautiful property. 2. Excellent service. 3. 2 times room cleaning, beautiful reef. 4. Lots of sweets, ice cream, shakes etc. 5. Superb snorkeling experience. 6. Nice welcome Lounge at the seaplane terminal. Cons: 1. They don't have any free drinking water in Lunch/Dinner even if Lunch or dinner is free/complimentary in your package. Strange. We have to buy a bottle of water for an exorbitant price. 2. Very less veg options on the menu so the property is not suitable for Vegetarian Indians. Although Chef Mohan made 2 veg Indian dishes every dinner, you will have to be content with that. 3. There are 3 kinds of villas. Beach villa, Water villa, and Ocean villa. Water villa is on the shore(one side sea other side land) and hence sea waves continuously make sound throughout the night. Some people might find it disturbing. Ocean villas have both sides sea.

5 star pricing but a 4 star experience overall. Probably my worst food experience in a 5 star resort ever - undercooked eggs at breakfast, gamey tasting pork at the Thai restaurant, zero flavour to the chicken satays at the Thai restaurant. The partner business which arranged the sea plane transfer was quite useless and spectacularly unhelpful on the return trip when they left me standing in a long queue he departures hall with less than 45 minutes to check-in. An issue which could have been avoided if they had put me onto an earlier flight back to Male

We loved our stay at this property. We were staying in the Ocean villa which was fabulous, the service to us was amazing and the food was brilliant. The water around the island was absolutely crystal clear and hence we really enjoyed our multiple snorkelling sessions. The Couple Connect spa session was also quite nice and relaxing. A special mention for the Thai restaurant Benjarong which we loved so much that we had meals there 3 consecutive days. Also a special mention for our butler Mr. Muhey who was quite helpful and informative as well. Just a few suggestions i'd like to make here, though these are all small points but yet again I believe would help the property improve a customer's experience even further. You can consider to add another restaurant/bar area in the property, also the gym could be made slightly better. With food, only a few small suggestions, first I found the pizzas a little bland and very thick and definitely need to improve their quality and Second coconut water should become a part of the package.

Dusit Thani is an amazing resort in Maldives. Everything about this resort is 100% perfect. As far as location is considered, Dusit is in the mids pristine coral reef right on the ridge that showcases incredible marine life and right next to deep blue waters that offers most beautiful snorkelling experience. This Island is very close to Hanifaru Bay for exploring the most beautiful creature Manta Rays. We are lucky to see and swim along with Sting Rays, wide varieties of fish, Turtles and other marine life during our very long hours of snorkeling all around the Island. As a resort Dusit Thani easily among the best places in entire Maldives that offers perfect vacation for honeymoon couples, family get-togethers or for the explorers. Food in any restaurant in Dusit is excellent. The best. Staff are genuinely committed to provide great service. Dive Centre has so many activities to experience great expeditions, Scuba Dive and many more. Their SPA is World Class. Probably among the best I have seen in the World. Everything about Dusit is excellent. We stayed for six days / five nights. Every single hour was very well spent. Starting from Dolphin Cruise, Turtle expedition, Scuba Diving, Sunset Cruise we have done almost every activity dive centre offers. We also enjoyed excellent massage and other services from SPA. Unfortunately we had no time for Yoga. We were a group of eight people from India. Everybody (Except me) is a big foodie. The amount of joy each one of them had with choicest of delicious food is unexplainable. Over all we truly and sincerely remain thankful for each of the staff members of Dusit. Our butler Mr. Sayeed, Sea Grill restaurant manager Mr. Gerald, waiters, masseurs, dive guides, house keeping staff (Unfortunately we can't name every one of them) everyone of them helped us to have most amazing Maldives vacation. We truly remain grateful to them. I sincerely thank General Manager Mr. Jean-Louis for great hospitality and generous support to ensure we had incredible vacation. As promised each of us will be back to Dusit very soon with our families very soon.
