Best Hotels in Huvafen Fushi

We just spent two incredible weeks at Huvafen Fushi as a family of 4 (2 adult kids). Having been to several different top properties across the Maldives, Huvafen was essentially an alternative to Gili Lankanfushi to us, as we felt like our favourite place has sadly become too noisy with the growing civilisation. So, in this review I will compare Huvafen to some of the other places we have seen, but also try to objectively reflect on our time there. Firstly, let me say that we had an absolutely wonderful vacation at HF and we enjoyed ourselves from the moment we stepped onto the island until we left. The island is certainly a magical place, both in terms of its nature / surroundings, as well as the people working and living on there. After two weeks on the island, we truly felt like part of the family and we were extremely sad to leave. Now, you might ask - why did you only give 4 stars if it was so wonderful? Honestly, this was not an easy decision at all. We had a heated discussion in our family and even after some weeks our opinions are still split - ultimately however we agreed that there are some small, but important, points that stopped us from giving this place 5 stars. But believe me, if 4.5 stars were possible, we'd give them that! But first, let me describe the numerous positives of Huvafen Fushi, that made our vacation here so wonderful: 1) The island location is perfect, only 30 minutes by speedboat from Male, but at the same time extremely quiet with no other large islands or noice pollution around 2) The island lagoon is stunning, with the water being crystal clear and very clean. The overwater bungalows have beautiful blue water in front of them (also deep enough to swim properly - which can be an issue at some Maldives properties), while the island bungalows have beautiful white sand beaches in front of them 3) In terms of activities, Huvafen really offers something for every taste. The island is extremely calm and relaxing for those who just want to spend their holidays doing nothing (the Spa is also amazing for that, including the incredible underwater spa), but at the same time offers a great variety of activities. We went windsurfing and catamaran sailing quite a few times which was extremely fun (Thanks to Aneel and the rest of the watersports team!!), as well as scuba diving (Thanks to Musto for taking great care of us and showing us lovely dive spots!), snorkeling, a sunset cruise and a super cool session with the Marine Biologist in the underwater spa (Highly recommended!!!) 4) The Thakuru (butler) service is great because it really feels like your well-being is at the center of your Thakuru's attention. Our Thakuru Yoonus took exceptional care of us and made us feel like no request was impossible! After a while, we didn't even have to voice our wishes anymore - he would simply pick up on them even before we could think of them and just make it happen. Big kudos to Yoonus, he was a GREAT part of why this vacation was

40 minutes away from Male's airport by speedboat. Very beautiful resort. Because I don't plan to dive, I chose a large sand house. The room layout is particularly fond. One side is the pool and the other is facing the sea. The resort staff are very enthusiastic and go wherever they go. Everyone is greeted by everyone. The life here is slow-paced. It is very suitable for a few days. The bar can watch the beautiful sunset. In the morning, you can see the sunrise sitting on the deck chair. Tizan is full of words, the buffet breakfast is rich, and the guests are not too many. It is a quiet environment we like. On the day of check-out, because it was an evening flight, the hotel was delivered to the airport at 15:30 in the afternoon. The hotel staff waved farewell side by side. Watching the speedboat go away, highly recommended resort [strong]

Snorkeling on the island is better, we go every day. Wife and child think they eat well. There is a ping-pong table, and we will play for a while after dinner. The services on the island were very enthusiastic. They also helped us to buy masks. The young lady in Shandong and the EMMA in Malaysia were very helpful. We were very moved. His wife said that he would go next time.

The privacy of the room is very good, and the villa swimming pool has a door (lockable). The pool villas of Paradise Island and Paradise Coral Island that I have stayed in were designed with the swimming pools facing the sea, and then surrounded by plants to maintain privacy, but after all The plants cannot stop people from walking in by mistake, so the privacy is the best at Banyan Tree! But the swimming pool is too small, and it is almost useless for swimming (the bathtub is good, and you can soak in hot water at 37.5 degrees, which is very comfortable.) But the overall facilities of the hotel are a bit old. Because the island is small, there are only 48 villas, so the buffet food variety It’s too little, not in line with the positioning of a six-star island, and feels quite shabby, especially with the price of $70. Bird of Paradise’s $50 buffet dinner is much better than it. Compared with before November 3rd (the day when the pool bar opened and guests were treated to free Japanese skewers and cocktails🍹, which was more pleasant.), the island has finally been upgraded with an infinity public swimming pool. This facility is very good, beautiful and practical ( However, because it has just been used, there are design flaws. The anti-skid function of the swimming pool is not good, so it is easy for people to slip and fall. I fell twice. Although it was not serious, it still hurt when I fell, which affected the vacation experience. , I hope it can be rectified so that subsequent tourists will not be accidentally injured), but the most dissatisfying thing is that the hotel treats guests who request to extend the room differently. We booked on Ctrip.com for $150 to extend the check-out time due to room status, but Two Chinese people in another room booked through the hotel's official website and were given a free extension to check out at 18:00. This made me very dissatisfied. There were obviously available rooms that were not available to guests (I asked to extend the stay until 14:00 and wanted to have lunch on the island before leaving, but was rejected). This makes me quite disappointed with the hotel's service spirit! ! The Paradise Island where I stayed during the National Day was very friendly. They would extend your check-out to the latest time for free according to your flight (they will inform you whether to stay in the same place or change rooms to rest depending on the room availability. I was arranged to stay in the water for free at that time. Thank you very much for extending check-out until 20:00!)

The weather is too bad and the hotel water house is good. The sand house is generally very rusty and not delicate. The hotel environment is not recommended because there are too many boats nearby and you can see the city of Male without the feeling of a water island and the land is too close at night Looking around, the lighting of the building in the distance is very poor. If the hotel on the four islands of Madai is the worst environment

It’s my first time visiting Maldives. Every thing is good. The room is very spacious and the view is great. The staff were also nice and friendly. We can check in early at about 11am. The breakfast and dinner in the Edge is tasty. The dinner in The breeze is also delicious and I like The Breeze since it is very chill to dine-in there. They have a bluetooth speaker in the room! The room cleaner also always cleaned our room tidily. If there is a washing machine in the room it would be better. Since the laundry service is a little bit expensive for us. But it is a great place to have a holiday!

The hotel is 45 minutes from the airport speedboat. There is no seaplane and there is a Chinese reception. The person in charge is very handsome, very responsible, the room is very good, clean and hygienic. Each room is equipped with a basin that can be used for punching. Preventing the sand from being brought into the room is very intimate and very user-friendly. I have two children in two rooms, and the extra children can have an extra bed. The hotel's service staff are very good, the drinking water supply is sufficient, and a bottle of red wine is also delivered. During the family's birthday, a small birthday cake is also delivered, which is great! The hotel water house is not the kind that I imagined to stick out from the beach. It doesn't feel as romantic as that. But overall is still very satisfied!

I've never given a 5 out of 5, so this is the first time I've given a 5 to this Hilton. Newly opened hotel with perfect hardware facilities and first-class service. The luxury speedboat is very convenient to go to the island, which can make good use of the time in Madai. Due to the newly opened hotel, there are not many people at present, the buffet is not fully open, all orders are made, and the food tastes very good. Especially those who like Asian food and seafood are very satisfied.

Ma Dai returned without looking at the sea, which is true. Vallo Island is a newly opened island, which is a 45-minute speedboat ride from the airport. The island is all-inclusive including food, drink and fun. It has a wealth of activities, including sunset cruise, sunset fishing, snorkeling twice a day, various non-motorized water projects such as kayaking, and other paid motorized water activities, but these are free Is enough for you to play! Let's talk about the room types, there are sand houses, swimming pool sand houses, water houses, swimming pool water houses, I can guarantee that you will be stunned when you enter the house, because it is so great! The room is large and the facilities are good. The waiter cleans it very clean. The mini bar is replenished twice a day. There are various snacks, chocolates, coffee, tea and drinks. See the photos for details. It is also equipped with sunscreen and mosquito repellent lotion. Is it intimate? Finally, let’s talk about eating. The main restaurant has different patterns every day, so you won’t get tired even if the main restaurant is every day, not to mention the seafood restaurant Madai restaurant and the grill restaurant. Every day I will go to the main pool bar to drink juices to bask in the sun. It's so comfortable! All of this is free! ! !
