We were seeking a resort in the Maldives which did not have motorised water sport, did not have a pool, did not have bar fridges, air conditioning or over water bungalows. All those features seemed to be at odds with the ethos of Maldives - a nation that is already so much at risk with climate change. Asdu Sun Island,... More

Without going into the usual superlatives bestowed upon the lovely Maldives, I will just say that Asdu is a good resort for a first trip to the Maldives. The whole island has a very 'village' atmosphere, laid-back and informal. Time seems to pass by slowly, and that actually isn't a bad thing if you want to take a break from... More

This island is a simple place with no cars, no motorbikes only transportation your feet. Acceptable food and outstanding service. Diving and fishing great. But bring your hardhat to avoid the coconuts :-)

On my first visit to the Maldives, my girlfriend and I visited Asdu. The resort offers a laid-back atmosphere with good service and rustic accommodation and is in my opinion perfect for a simple beach holiday. There is no aircon and no hot water, but in hindsight, I would not have wanted it any other way. The manager told me... More

We have stayed at Asdu three times over the last few years. It is cheap, friendly and quiet. No tv's, no air con, no hot water, but it is real. You don't feel you're being conned by a big international company. It is one of the oldest resorts and is run by a maldivian.... that is to say it is... More

I stayed at Asdu a few years ago with a friend of mine, and after seeing some of the negative reviews here on Tripadvisor, I felt compelled to write my own. As one can tell from the website and affordable prices (most resorts in the Maldives are significantly more expensive), the Asdu resort is very minimal. That is part of... More

Asdu sun Island is a very simple resort on a marvelous island, you eat excellent food and service is excellent too (personel very sympathic). Ambiance is simple, not snob. You can see very easily marine life while snorkeling and diving is possible too. We highly recommand this resort for little budgets Nathalie & Alain

I've stayed there in January with friends and all our kids (5). The rooms are very very basic, not even warm water, but we didn't care at all. Food is simple too, but fresh and well done, waiters are nice and smiling all the time even with our excited kids. Beaches are beautiful and almost desert. If you don't care... More

First time in Maldives, it was a dream becomes true when I saw first time the island. So small...I felt to be as in movie (Cast away?) and immediatly I felt to be in heaven. White sand, turquoise sea and high palm trees. A breathly wind was surronding all the time, to refresh a while in sunny days. Ok, bungalows... More
