Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We live in this guesthouse as a family of 4 people. Every morning we have breakfast in a restaurant; they also grilled fish that we caught while fishing. We also attended dinners (octopus, tuna, burgers for children) and ordered hookah. Dinner is pre-ordered so that we can plan our time and spend more time walking. There is Wi-Fi in the restaurant, fans, on the open veranda, and there are a lot of green spaces in the yard. There is noticeable illumination on the outside of the building, clearly visible from the beginning of the street. I notice that not only hotel residents come in, but from other hotels. The staff is predominantly Russian speaking. Rimma will advise you on all the details on the island. I was glad that here we could exchange money at a favorable rate. There was a welcome drink upon check-in and the rooms were decorated. Linen change every 3 days, cleaning daily, towels for the beach, fins, masks available (we have our own), sun and mosquito repellents. Rimma was very helpful with cough medicine for children. Because I had everything in my first aid kit except this))) I didn’t suspect that it could come in handy. Of the breakfasts for the week, I only photographed sandwiches today, but they are different every day, the repetition was once a week with pancakes, but the children were waiting for them every day))) there was also a traditional Maldivian breakfast - each table was told the composition and how they prepare it, how they eat it . Several times a day they ask how things are, inquire about the child’s health, ask what they saw during the day, where they were. And in general they are open to communication. There are many more pleasant decorative little things from all over the world) I go and look at them)

Holidaying with two kids, so they took a two-bedroom room with a kitchen. In children's TV with usbport, eye convenient for watching downloaded cartoons during afternoon rest. Room service and two litre bottles of water every day. The room has kettle, candle, fridge, appliances, plates, spices. A hairdryer was provided upon request. Air conditioning and ceiling fans 🌬️. It's very minimalist and comfortable. The courtyard of the villa has a communal relaxation area with kitchenette, tables and cozy sofas, ceiling fans are also here. The area is clean and green. The owner of the villa is English and Russian speaking with a sense of humor and responsiveness to his clients. Very convenient location of the restaurant immediately on the second floor with delicious dishes and children's menu. Breakfast is varied, but our children loved homemade pancakes with fruit and condensed 😋. I recommend it! Beach and ocean chic🌴

This is my second visit to this wonderful island and it was definitely better than the first, largely thanks to the place where I stayed! Very friendly and sympathetic people work here, Rimma and Kirill, they created the feeling as if they were staying with relatives at the dacha, comfortable rooms, excellent breakfasts that are not repeated day after day, and lunches and dinners deserve a separate review - I only ate at the Black Anchor restaurant, which on the second floor of the hotel, be sure to try the reef fish, tuna steak and homemade coconut ice cream, it’s all just a delight - the fish is fresh, perfectly cooked, and it was simply impossible not to end your day with this wonderful dessert! Kirill also told us about all the right places on the island, organized snorkeling, where we visited 3 different points and saw sharks, small stingrays and a turtle, in addition to thousands of other beautiful fish. Be sure to come here on your next visit, no options! Many thanks to Kirill and Rimma for creating an indescribable atmosphere and emotions from the holiday!

Todd is a wonderful local island of Maldives. Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised that the owner, "Mama" Rome, was already waiting for me at the port. She greeted me warmly and took me to a hotel where a refreshing coconut drink was waiting and gave me a tour of the guest house, including an amazing restaurant (Black Anchor) located on the top floor.

In the 'guest house' the reception and relaxation area is green and beautiful, with many cozy places to sit and relax, especially on rare rainy days (which only happen during the rainy season).

My double room was very spacious and my beds were incredibly comfortable, perfect for relaxing and sleeping. And, of course, the restaurant deserves special mention - it is undoubtedly the best on the island! The menu and quality of food far exceed what can be expected on the local islands.

Thank you, Rima, for your wonderful experience, your hospitality and special treatment! I'm already looking forward to my next visit!"

This guesthouse is our happy place! My husband and I spent almost two wonderful weeks in here and felt like home. Wonderful accommodation with all necessary amenities, just excellent restaurant Black Anchor (very stylish) with delicious and various food, big portions that we never could manage to eat, perfect service, great atmosphere! The hotel is located 5 minutes walk from the Sunrise beach and the port, and it takes 15 minutes to get to the Sunset beach in Thoddoo. The staff is utmost friendly and the owner is always there to assist in any question. Anna (the hostess) is very caring, we even got some little pleasant presents from her and the guesthouse, so we were surrounded with care and love and felt really welcomed! We would definitely recommend staying in this marvelous guesthouse when in the Maldives!

I arrived at the hotel with the idea of staying a day or two and moving on, in the end I liked it so much that I stayed longer) from the very threshold you are greeted with a warm smile, surrounded by care, no question will go unanswered. The rooms are clean and comfortable and have a refrigerator. There is a terrace on site where you can sit and relax. The staff is just wonderful, so attentive! I definitely recommend this hotel for a holiday

Excellent family cozy guesthouse!
The territory, although small (like everywhere else here), is very clean, cozy and green.
Attentive and polite staff, good cuisine.
Having your own restaurant perfectly complements your stay at Dai-Villa.
Free snorkeling equipment is provided.
The guest house is located next to the port and the sunrise beach. The staff and administrator Rimma are all Russian-speaking and are always ready to help, advise, advise, and tell the nuances of a vacation in the Maldives.

A magical hotel with very welcoming hosts. (At the time of my arrival, owner Rimma, mother of the hotel owner). Everything is done the best and most convenient for guests . Nothing hurts my head. Cozy very atmosphere , tasteful setting . There are no complaints or questions about the staff either. The hotel also has a restaurant -Black Anchor with delicious and always fresh dishes for every taste. I was more pleased than ever with my choice.

Hi! The last trip to Thoddoo usually starts ~ 4pm. what time is your flight on 14th and when is your return flight? You're right, there is no ferry on friday, but there will be ferry to Rasdhoo Sat morning. Actually, after spending some time on Thoddoo, you might reconsider your plans. our island is super nice, and the beach is the best in the atoll.

Константин, есть такая опция. Нас встретили в аэропорту и отвезли в гест - стоило 30$ с человека. Я не из Дайв Виллы - отдыхаю тут. Пишите на фейсбуке им - ответят на русском. Гестом рулят русскоязычные.
