Beach Hotels in Dhangethi

Nova This review will be fairly long, as the level of care, professionalism, attention to detail and sheer joy we received is hard to put into a short review. Here’s the TL;DR before the long version: Don’t think twice, book Nova. It’ll be worth every penny, the facilities are top notch and state of the art (barely 2 years old) and the staff is the most amazing in the world. Now, let’s dive in. The experience begins with Ms Zhou at arrivals welcoming you along with the front office team. You’re shown around the island, where you see Wink (the social hub of the island), the state of the art gym, and white sand beaches. The villas are out of this world, spacious, well ACed, and with good access to the water. You don’t spend much time in the room however, because you’ll be eating at Soul Kitchen, where Evi, Bee, Sinhala, Anggi, Manoj and the wok-master himself James prepare you the best meals at restaurant level you can have. Not once do you feel like it’s a buffet, because the quality is so high. At breakfast, make sure to grab a sweet bite from the pastry chef Ms. Bee, or a perfectly cooked each time eggs Benedict from Anggi. At lunch or dinner, be sure to get a live-cooking rice from James, Sinhala or Manoj - the wok hei taste is something that you cannot replicate without their years of experience. Big shout out to Chef James for helping me build up my spice tolerance. The state of the art cooking is supplemented by the attentive staff, who don’t let a day pass by without pampering you. Huge thanks to the entire team, especially Mohammed, Shaee, Jailam, Angunn, Lee, Heidi, Fitri, Kadek and of course Muneeb. When catching the sunset in the Solis Pool Bar, a cocktail from one of Sri Lanka’s best - Sandun - is a must. (Though the first place is closely tied with Krishan from Wink, also Sri Lanka). Sandun makes the perfect cocktails, easily carries the conversation and has insightful comments. Wink - the social hub of the entire island.

i really like this place! the owner Tholal was very friendly and helpful, we did a lovely Manta Ray Trip. Rooms are big, clean and got everything you need.. there is a small kitchen too so you could prepare something yourself also if you like.. Breakfast was good and in a lovely spot at the Water.. definitely coming back!

Everything is perfect ! The staff is incredible, they are attentive to all your needs and very friendly. Room was clean and comfortable, with a direct enter to the water and space on the beach. Food is tasty and varied. The island environment is very beautiful, house reef is very nice to snorkel and dive. I would highly recommand!

It was truly heaven on earth. From the friendly arrival, the stunning room, beautiful weather and amazing food. Could not find a single thing wrong about the place

We were back there after 9 years and I can say that it was the good idea. We love return to the same places and Lily Brach is the greatest destination.

the staff! the staff are so lovely, most especially our guy Shahaau. He ensured we had the most pleasurable stay.

I had the most wonderful stay at Antares Dhangethi. Fari, who runs the place with her husband, was there throughout, making sure I had everything I needed. The whole team at the guesthouse were some of the sweetest people I’ve met, always ready to help with a smile. One of the best parts is that they have their own dive shop — Fathu Dives, hands down the best on the island. Every morning before my dive trips, they thoughtfully packed my breakfast to take along. From the moment I landed, there was someone at the airport to guide me to the speedboat, and even on the island I was looked after, whether it was getting around by golf cart or just making things easy. This is not just a place to stay, it’s an experience filled with warmth, care, and genuine hospitality. I’d recommend Antares Dhangethi to anyone visiting the Maldives without a second thought!

Beautiful place, comfortable and close to the bikini beach. The staff at the guesthouse ( a young guy from Bangladesh ) is a lovely person and will do everything he can to make your stay comfortable and easy.

Staff were friendly and helpful, nothing too much effort.

Very nice people, I'll definitely recommend
