Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort

Overall, the hotel is good and offers a comfortable stay, however the experience felt quite different from the authentic Maldives vibe we were expecting. One area that could definitely be improved is the food. There were some difficulties accommodating gluten-free and lactose-intolerant diets, with a rather limited selection available, which made dining a bit challenging at times. The service, however, was good. The staff were professional and kind, and I would especially like to mention the lady who assisted us during our stay — she was always prompt, attentive, and genuinely helpful, which we truly appreciated. One downside of our experience was the room situation. We felt disappointed to discover that there was a large construction directly in front of our room, which was not clearly mentioned or visible in the photos on the hotel’s website. Because of this, we felt the need to upgrade our room, which was not something we had initially planned. In summary, while the hotel has positive aspects and good service, there are areas where clearer communication and improvements could enhance the overall guest experience.

Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort was truly one of the most amazing places I have ever visited in my life. The resort has everything you could possibly need, so there is no need to go to another island at all. The restaurants were incredible the food was absolutely delicious. The service was outstanding, honestly one of the best I’ve ever experienced. There are so many water activities to enjoy, and everything was perfectly organized. From the moment we arrived until we left, everything was flawless. A truly unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

It was an amazing resort for my family (3 adults and 2 teens). The resort covered everything by we needed: food, activities, comfortable stay, and ease of transportation. First I want to say thank you to Shujaau (our room attendant) who responded to every message within 5 minutes to make sure we could get reservations at the restaurants, a buggy, questions about the activities, and making sure our stay was easy. He even ensured that there was a bike for everyone to enjoy moving around the island. The Aquafanatics team was very helpful to make sure our trip was packed with lovely activities like dolphin + nurse shark snorkeling and jet skis + kayaks. Till and Mustafa were very accommodating and helped answer any questions about aquatic animals and reefs. The food and beverages team, led by Pankaj, was very accommodating to our dietary restrictions (3 vegetarians and 2 vegans). Even within the restaurants, Ramu and other waiters were able to cater to our needs and adjust the menus to make sure that we had a variety of foods over our 4 night stay. The transportation on the island and to the airport was amazing and smooth sailing(a few wavy rides but it was a lot of fun and always felt safe). The bikes were super helpful to get around the island and the pontoons were perfect to get to the restaurants. There was lots to do on the island itself as well like yoga, kids club, pool, and the gym. Midun is an amazing trainer, who also runs the boxing session, and is very technical and knowledgeable about health and fitness. The rooms were lovely and had access to the water. They had everything we needed with towels, water bottles, and lots of space. The insides were beautifully done and very comfortable (even with the extra bed). From our over water villa, we were able to see lots of fish, crab, and even a few sharks. Whether it was sunny or rainy, the team and the room were perfect to give us a proper Maldives experience.
