Scuba Diving in South Ari Atoll from AU$2,027

"Romantic villa amazing relax and recreation time to zone out and switch off from day to day life Attention to detail and making us feel at home away from home great ! Staff amazing and Rachael in particular was so helpful and amazing with keeping our plans during our stay in order. Amenities and restaurants are great with quality food and plenty variety to choose from Me and my partner David look forward to coming again and visiting on a regular vacay to Lux"

"Stayed 6 nights at the Machchafushi resort. An amazing experience overall. Great location with friendly and helpful staff. Enjoyed the stay and food. The room was spotless and the minibar daily replenished. Siva and Shafiq at the bar made some excellent mocktails and Yuvi explained everything to us on arrival. Credits to Nasru from house keeping . An overall great experience. Very unique given we had never stayed before on an over the water villa. "

"Very helpful all round"

"Great staff, super friendly crew."

"Everything was perfect, people were very welcoming, the food was great, manta, turtles, whale shark trips were a nice experience. "

"This is a rare find and we felt very privileged to stay here. The island is a locals island and felt like a real Maldivian experience. As advertised, you can dive 3 times each day which is amazing. The staff are all incredibly lovely and kind. The rooms are perfect for what you need with air con and good Wi-Fi. The food was plentiful and really tasty. If you’re up for an adventure and don’t feel the need for a polished version of the Maldives then this is the place to be. Cultural appropriation is important here and you won’t be sipping beers in the evening but you definitely won’t be disappointed. My 14yr old daughter was taught to dive and given the opportunity to do her PADI course whilst there with the very experienced Midhoo who was was awesome. We are truly grateful. Take some local currency and mosquito repellent !"
