Hotels in Funamadhua Island

"We spent Christmas and New Year at Robinsons Maldives and it was the best holiday we have ever had. The resort is beautifully run, immaculate, and calm. Andreas deserves special praise — his leadership is evident in every detail, from the festive surprises to the overall atmosphere. The staff were exceptional. Harry “Pudding” created extraordinary desserts, explained with pride and worthy of a Michelin-level kitchen. Nazraan (Jordy) brought constant warmth and laughter, and Suma added elegance and insight through her talks on Maldivian life. Everyone was kind, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The food was outstanding — even after two weeks we never ate the same thing twice, and the vegetarian options were the best we’ve ever experienced. Christmas Eve dinner was unforgettable. Our beach bungalow was spacious with private access, calm seas, and incredible coral right outside. The Sundown Bar at sunset was stunning, entertainment varied nightly, and snorkelling was exceptional with vibrant coral, abundant marine life, and even a resident turtle. A truly special place — we can’t wait to return. Emma & Steve x"

"Ayada Maldives was honestly everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, the island felt peaceful, beautiful, and incredibly welcoming. The resort itself is stunning with clear blue water, soft white sand, and greenery everywhere. Our villa was spacious, spotless, and perfectly private, with views that never stopped impressing us. It felt like our own little piece of paradise. What truly made the experience special was the service, especially Mehrat, our concierge and butler. Mehrat was absolutely amazing. Attentive without ever being intrusive, always kind, and genuinely cared about making our stay perfect. Whether it was organizing plans, checking in on us, or handling small details before we even asked, Mehrat made everything effortless and stress free. Every staff member went above and beyond to make us feel cared for and valued. The food across the resort was excellent, with plenty of variety and consistently high quality. Every meal felt relaxed yet special, especially dining with those ocean views. Ayada offers the perfect balance between relaxation and things to do. Snorkeling, enjoying the beach, or simply slowing down and enjoying the calm. It is the kind of place that makes you forget about time altogether. This was a truly memorable stay, and a big part of that was the people who work here. We would absolutely return to Ayada Maldives and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, peaceful, and well run resort."

"the location is stunning! Whatever villa you choose you'll always have a great view of the ocean! We were lucky to stay in 518, water pool villa and it was perfect! You have your little slice of paradise if you fancy some great snorkeling (right on top of the reef) and some private time. Otherwise the big main pool, just outside the main restaurant is incredible too and you can walk to the beach and jump into the ocean directly from there! The two restaurants offer a big variety of food, catering for every need! The restaurant team is so welcoming and kind. Madvi chats with everyone with her big smile, Poppy makes the best coffees, the whole team is attentive and present without forcing interactions! My wife unfortunately was not feeling great for the last two days and they were really kind, genuine and caring! 10/10! If you fancy a relaxing afternoon I can't recommend to try the Spa enough! Both Ida and Rena looked after us so well and their massages are a perfect mix of relaxation and rejuvenation! The diving center has many options for scuba diving, snorkeling and some excursions! We loved the sunset cruise, we were able to take amazing pictures and saw the dolphins too! Skip the local island tour, Marty, our guide was very informative but there is really not much to see. Also, make it clear with the reception, which discounts you can get and what is included in the offers as it was very vague and we discovered it only when we settled the bill. Overall great time!"
