After considering about a dozen properties for our first trip to the Maldives, we booked our vacation to Olhuveli through Agoda. We were looking for something that was mid-range; somewhere that was relaxed and semi-affordable, yet not OTT type of place where you must don formal wear to dinner. Olhuveli seemed like the perfect fit. We are frequent travelers but... More

This was my choice after comparing more than 20 different hotels in Maldives, and it was probably one of my best travelling decisions ever. The hotel is almost flawless. The island is absolutely beautiful and well designed. All the bungalows are much more than I was expecting. I was not sure about going to a watervilla - I didnt, and... More

We booked Olhuveli for Christmas 2010 and it really was paradise. We were greeted on arrival with ice tea and cold towels before being shown to our room. We had a deluxe villa which was really special with a four poster bed. We were a short stroll from the beach and the main restaurants. We were all inclusive and the... More

We've just returned from our honeymoon to the olhuveli beach and spa resort. Now I spent along time looking at different resorts to make sure we both got what we wanted, and I really wanted a water villa and this hotels seemed to be lower in cost than some of the other resorts, even though generally the resort was not...

We've just got back from our week long honeymoon which just wasn't long enough at this amazing island! If you can afford the costs stay for two weeks. We traveled with Thomsons after looking at costs to fly BA and pay the hotel direct. The costs are cheaper as a package and we can't complain it was a great set-up... More

We are an active family with two boys of 10 and 7 so the prospect of going on a beach holiday filled me with fear of not having enough to do, despite Olhuveli being considered a large island (it takes 10-15 mins to walk around). In the end we had a wonderful time for the 14 days we spent over... More

We stayed here for our 25th wedding anniversary and decided to splash out on a jacuzzi water villa. From the moment we landed at Male airport everything was very efficent from start to finish. The speed / motor boats waiting to take you on the 45 minute ride are literally 60 seconds walk from arrivals. The boat trip itself was... More

We chose Olhuveli as our honeymoon destination and could not have chosen better. We landed in Male, relieved after flying for 15 hours, on a perfect sunshine day. On arrival at Olhuveli we were greeted enthusiastically and arranged to our room in good time. We opted for one of the Deluxe Villas on the western side and, although being one... More

Spent 4 nights here in May 2012. Except for a 30 min wait at the airport for arrival of few other guests, the boat transfer to the island was a smooth 45 min ride.
