OUTRIGGER Maldives Maafushivaru Resort

It was my first time visiting Maldives and I had a wonderful, memorable stay here. The staff were welcoming and ensured we were comfortable, it felt easy making conversation with them. Moosa provided great hospitality giving fast replies, helping us in booking the restaurants and providing any information we needed. Saw a lot of marine life while snorkeling as well and had an overall surreal time during my stay here. Would love to come back again in the future. Outrigger definitely made my first time in Maldives a memorable experience.

We don’t normally leave a review of holidays. However, our experience at Outrigger was so outstanding that I felt compelled to give a brief insight of our experience. From the moment we arrived on the island and met at the jetty by the island manager and staff who were really welcoming. At that moment I got the first indication that this holiday was going to be special. Moosa took us to reception where we had a welcome drink while Moosa checked us in, our luggage was taken to the room and Moosa gave us a tour of the island showing us the various restaurants and other facilities like the Spa and Gym along with dive centre where you had complementary snorkelling equipment canoes etc. Our room was a Beach Villa with pool room 110 the location and room was excellent around 15 feet from the water edge and a beautiful sandy beach. Food - all the restaurants were first class the food was exceptional lots of variety and the quality was spot on. Lunch was also very good with lots of choice while either eating in the main bar lounge or by the pool. Breakfast was a buffet style which also included live food stations for omelettes etc. for evening meals we had the choice of Moodhu Grill, the Cuisine Gallery, The Artisan, Koto. The quality was excellent at all venues. The staff where outstanding with a special mention to Moosa who scheduled our dinner bookings across the whole of our stay, which took another job off us and we visiting all restaurants a minimum of twice during our 12 night stay and more to our favourites which were Artisan and Moodhu grill. A special call out to all the staff especially Joy and Victoria and many others who’s names we can’t recall but all were equally attentive, they knew our names and would give us a lovely greeting along with excellent service. We used the spa for a doubles massage this again was a great experience. We also did the complementary sunset cruise which was fabulous. We did another trip to a local island which was very interesting to see how the locals live Again the service was outstanding all the

We stayed in a water villa with a swimming pool, it was amazing and the nicest villa we have stayed in whilst in the Maldives. The staff were so polite, nice and gave exceptional service. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you to all to making our stay so memorable xx

We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary and the staff made us feel very special, from the initial greeting to our sad goodbyes. While not everything went to plan (when does it?), Vivi our host made sure we were happy. and never disappointed. Can't recommend highly enough.

A dream escape! Our stay at Outrigger Maldives was absolutely amazing. The villa was stunning, the ocean views were breathtaking, and the service was exceptional from start to finish. The spa was a true highlight — especially the Ayurvedic massage, which left us completely relaxed and renewed. Every detail was perfect, from the delicious food to the peaceful atmosphere. We’re so grateful for this unforgettable experience and can’t wait to return!
