Easily the nicest place we’ve stayed in the Maldives! it’s the perfect location, clean well maintained facilities, and the most comfortable bed. the showers are hot and the AC is amazing but the best part about it is the Michelin level chef that prepares incredibly thoughtful fresh, healthy meals every single breakfast, lunch and dinner. we felt truly spoiled almost like we had a private chef. we’ve never been ones to eat solely at one location but we never wanted to leave because of his incredible cooking. each meal we’d look forward to the next. we’d highly recommend staying here solely for the food vacation lol the island is very very quiet with not a ton to do but with these meals and this location that is all you need for a relaxing vacation. the staff all around is just excellent. we miss it already !!

Our family loved every second at Kiha Beach. The staff is so friendly and helpful and the location could not be more beautiful. The best snorkelling was right in the little bay by the hotel. The rooms were very comfortable and clean. The menu in the restaurant had great variety and good quality food for reasonable prices. The highlight of the trip were the animals; snorkelling with the Manta Rays, the little blue bird who would come visit our balcony and sit on our shoulders, the friendliest cats and kittens on the property, and seeing small reef sharks and beautiful fish right in the hotel bay. It was amazing!!

This is a small local island. It’s quiet and simple.
This is a small local island. It’s quiet and simple. The people are friendly. The beach and the sea is beautiful. There are a few restaurants on the island. We have limited choice on food. We recommend the restaurant called Moonshell as it provides more international food and the price is reasonable. There is another cafe near the pier where we can eat local Maldivian food. The cafe is popular among locals. The island is very close to the Manta point called Hanifaru Bay. We recommend this manta excursion as this is a wonderful once in a lifetime experience. It is convenient to bring cash and exchange some Maldivian money to spend and pay for the meals.

A local island so don't expect the resort life - the beaches...
A local island so don't expect the resort life - the beaches look picture perfect, but the streets are full of trash. You can experience and learn about the local lifestyle, traditions etc. which is a big plus in my opinion. I read that the house reef is one of the best in the Maledives and I can absolutely vouch for that.

Maalhos is a beautiful island surrounded by white coral...
Maalhos is a beautiful island surrounded by white coral beaches. It has a forest full of palms and tropical trees and plants. If you visit it in the evening, use mosquito repellent. Local villagers are nice and friendly. There is a bikini beach with sun beds and amazing access to turquoise colour water. Beaches are white sand and on several parts of the island you can find corals and shells on the beach. There is a diving center, you can rent a water scooter or go for a snorkeling trip. Snorkeling was an amazing experience. We saw tropical fish, sting rays, corals and big turtles while snorkeling. We went for a dolphin watch and saw dozens of dolphins swimming and jumping in the sea. There is an isolated island close to Maalhos with beautiful turquoise lagoons. Unfortunately there was also quite a lot of trash when we visited and the forest is full of mosquitoes, so don't forget to take your repellent if you visit. During some months you can watch mantas. We had the luck and the blue bioluminescence plankton 3 or 4 nights on the beach, it was a breath taking experience. We stayed and took breakfast, lunch and dinner in Manta Reserve Hotel, which is the best place to stay in Maalhos. You can walk around the island in 45 minutes.
