Cheap Hotels in Shaviyani Atoll from NZ$3,313

"Let’s start with the sheer beauty of this island. It’s truly breath taking. As is The Maldives as a whole. As for the resort itself. We are a family of 4 with two kids aged 13 and 7 and we selected here due to the long list of family activities & kids club. In truth, the little one wasn’t interested at all in the kids club & was more keen on the brilliant private swimming pools and superb snorkelling - both from the beach & also from the dive centre. Snorkelling from the beach you encounter a huge variety of fish, the highlights bring the reef sharks and manta ray. From the dive centre - which is very chilled - we saw turtles, sharks and huge shoals of beautiful fish. You can spend hours there. If you’re not that bothered about drinking loads of alcohol then Full Board is the way to go. The Food at all 3 restaurants was excellent and we enjoyed it. Fab breakfast followed by 3 courses at lunch and dinner… and we’re slim but the menus really are wonderful so make the most of it. The staff are amazing. We came back with pics of them cuddling our kids because they were so caring & our children loved them. We went for a sunset beach villa. I recommend the deluxe so you have that extra stretch of beach in front of you otherwise you get little “private beach” b4 you hit the water. Water sports centre is ace. Do the jet skis they are awesome. Dolphin & Turtle cruise is a lovely way to spend 3 hours. Honestly we can’t express how much we loved this place & sad we had to go. "

"Second time back here, the staff are amazing and the beach is awesome with crystal clear sea! The dolphin spotting and snorkelling trips are definitely a highlight! "

"We thoroughly enjoyed this relaxed family friendly property."

"Absolutely fantastic stay- we were met at Male airport and looked after to our flight to Ifuru Island which is outstanding. All the staff looked after us with extreme courtesy and were extremely welcoming. Everywhere was very clean and cared for and the food very variable and to a high standard. Snorkelling was amazing we saw fish/stingrays/reef sharks/turtles/ resident heron. On our return we were met again at Male airport and looked after and helped to check in for our flight home. Cannot recommend this Island strongly enough ! ALL the staff were very dedicated and very hard working and so sorry can’t remember everyone’s names but very much felt a warm/friendly/family atmosphere. Shout out to: Monika, Tharaka, Sara, Diva, Donni, manager of waterfront(sorry don’t know name), Shiyaau, Basse, Pradeeb, Shiva, Raazan, Juli, Ahmed, Fraish (sorry if spelt wrong - captain of Komomo) thank you to everyone for a very special holiday "

"Amazing "

"We had an amazing time at Robinson Noonu. The water villas were so nice, Staff were very friendly and attentive. Food was really great. They also excelled at the airport transfer service. We have gone to countless resorts I’ve r the years and this was the best transfer yet! Someone walked us right through from arrivals all the way to return. They supported us at baggage and check in right to the departures. They have customer experience down to a fine art! Thank you!"

"Lovely new guesthouse located on a quiet friendly local island. The house reef was a short walk and we had it all to ourselves. There is lots to see when snorkeling. Management were friendly and very helpful. "

"All the staff were incredibly friendly, approachable and helpful during our stay. The range of activities and facilities to attend, combined with the tranquility and beauty of the island, made this a highly memorable holiday."
