Dusit Thani Maldives

Dusit Thani Maldives is absolutely worth a visit. The staff made us feel genuinely welcome throughout our stay. If your idea of a perfect holiday involves sunshine, tropical warmth, and plenty of time in the ocean, you’ll feel right at home here. We chose the Pure Indulgence (PI) meal plan, and the food was fresh and delicious, also plenty. Deciding what to order quickly became one of our more demanding daily responsibilities. We would especially like to express our sincere appreciation to our butler, Ajaa, and Nishan from the housekeeping team. Ajaa was professional, efficient, and reliable throughout our visit. From coordinating our arrangements to answering questions and addressing our requests, he made everything feel smooth and well organised. We truly appreciated his responsiveness and the care he put into looking after us. Nishan kept our villa spotless and comfortable, and made sure we always had plenty of drinking water, sodas, and juices (as we do not drink wines; But if you wish to). His thoughtful, attentive service made a real difference to our everyday comfort in our villa. Thank you, Ajaa and Nishan, and the entire Dusit Thani team, for your warm hospitality and for making our stay so memorable.

From the moment we arrived, to the moment we left, we were nurtured by the people, island and marine life that is Mudhdhoo Island. We loved the spaciousness of the villas, the ease with which we could ease into the ocean, the spectacular house reef which surprised us every snorkel, as well as the lush rainforest providing welcome shade, wildlife and tropical gardens. However a resort is only as good as its people. The personalised attention and genuine care we received from the resort staff was extraordinary. Our kind butler Yasir ensured we always had reservations for dinner, the spa and activities. However he was also invaluable to us with unusual requests for IT support. The lovely housekeeping were friendly and polite, always willing to fit in with our daily plans and stocking the mini bar with our favourite drinks. Breakfast was always met with a smile and a chat from lovely Kooty. The young guides on the boat were so friendly and helpful with our excursions, making every effort to help us fulfill lifetime dreams of swimming with both the mantra rays and whale sharks. We would lastly like to acknowledge the very special staff of Sala restaurant. Amila, Ishan and team, including the talented chef, gave us such beautiful, nourishing, inventive vegan meals, that we dined with them daily and literally tried everything on the menu. Lovely food, beautiful people and dreamlike ambience. Sala will remain in our memories and hearts forever. Thankyou Dusti Thani for such a nurturing holiday.

We visited this resort for the first time for our honeymoon, and it was such an amazing experience that we truly didn’t want to leave. I highly recommend this resort to anyone who loves snorkeling and wants to enjoy a relaxing and luxurious getaway at their own pace. During the manta ray excursion, we were able to spend plenty of time with the manta rays, which became an unforgettable memory that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We were a little disappointed that we couldn’t see whale sharks on the whale shark excursion, but it actually gave us another reason to plan a future trip to the Maldives! We became so obsessed with snorkeling every day that we were completely exhausted, so unfortunately, we didn’t get to enjoy as much food and drinks as we would have liked. If you want to have enough energy to fully enjoy the resort’s dining and drinks, I would recommend limiting snorkeling to once or twice a day. Finally, our butler, Saeed, was absolutely perfect. He always responded to our questions immediately and arranged everything so quickly and efficiently. His support made our stay even more enjoyable. Thank you so much for giving us such a wonderful honeymoon experience. We will never forget our time here!

I feel very good about this holiday island.The scenery on the island is very good, although it has been raining for several days,My housekeeper Naan,his service is very considerate,helped me solve a lot of difficulties, booked me a variety of restaurants,carefully considered.I feel very lucky to meet him.

A great hotel can make or break a Maldives holiday, and unfortunately this one fell short. It’s very close to the city, with views of the city or cargo ships from most areas. So no endless blue waters. The food quality and variety were disappointing, with only a 1-2 good dishes at each restaurant. Service also lacked the personalized touch you expect in the Maldives, I had to repeatedly follow up for everything, including my daughter’s first birthday cake, a paid photoshoot, and a paid boat cruise. I’ve had far better Maldives experiences at lower price points.
