Our house keeper was Rutik and he was very kind and friendly and prepared for us nice surprise . Always caring about us having plenty of water and towels :) i'll definitely recommend to my friends and i'll be happy to came back.

Exotic paradise

We arrived 28th Feb for 10 nights celebrating 20th wedding anniversary.
We have been to Cinnamon  haara hukaraa resort previously x2 and it really spoilt us in terms of quality of food, drink, services, total personal touches. 
So. We arrived open minded.

The island is absolutely paradise it's utterly breath taking.
The sand is powder soft.
It is immaculate around the island in terms cleanliness and maintenance 

Our water villa with pool was stunning on arrival and we were upgraded from sunrise to sunset as we requested. Thsnk you so much that. 

The drinks are wonderful at the pool bar 

The buffett is where I felt let down. The evening meals were very very limited in choice and a couple nights we struggled what to eat as there was alot seafood we don't eat or vegetarian foods. The dining was chaotic in the evening, we waited 3 nights over 40 mins for drinks of wine which I feel is not 5 star and this really needs improving.
There were children running round with no control and dangerous as people were walking with plates of hot food. Staff had trays full drinks. It really ruined our evening dining experience. And I would hesitate to return unless the evening bufett choices and experiences is improved.

We did have a dinner on the beach which was magical and I would like to suggest better deals for this so it canbe enjoyed more or to add as part of all inclusive that guest can book once per so many nights stay. They had another restaurant which was often very quiet and very expensive again shame to not add to all inclusive or better priced. 

Our house keeping was sporadic in terms of quality some days good someday poor. The shower wasn't cleaned once I rinsed it myself. 
Some days clean towels some days dirty towels hung back up.

We had bag nuts taken from our room minibar,  and realised on last day when being charged that they had obviously been stolen however management were good at rectifying and removing the charge but it's uncomfortable to think they were taken from our room. 

Mini bar not included in feel for 5 star it could be added especially the coffe pods, i really feel quality coffee ahpuld be included for 5 star, but it would not stop us returning. 

We did struggle for beach lounger 4 days out of 10 ( 3 days rain so only 3 days  opportunity for beach ) and it wasn't due to too many people there just wasn't enough and when we asked if there were anymore that could be brought we were told No. Again I think this requires consideration as when your staying in a water villa it's nice to experience the beach too. 

Some of the pool bar staff were absolutely amazing and a couple lacked friendliness which surprised me after going to Cinnamon x 2 were every single person on the island smiled 😃 it's again only a small thing but it does make a difference to your experience.

We did not use spa but I could suggest providing offers that change daily or weekly and promoting this as we often will take up special offers from the spa. 

Snorkelling WOW. It was amazing. We only realised after a couple days the house reef is best accessed of the jetty, and again just a suggestion that guest arrival are informed where to access house reef, as part of their arrival information. 
I can honestly say though seeing and swimming with sharks and sting rays and the amount of colourful tropical fish is a memory we will treasure. 

I have tried to give an honest review of our experience and hope some suggestions can be considered but mostly that the buffett dining can be improved particularly in the evening

AMAZING with room for improvement

Back from 10 days in Paradise and we could not recommend this resort more !! The Island is intimate, beautiful and beaches are crystal clear, with white sand and blue water, and very clean, this shows how the island is taking care of . The staff is amazing, helpful and friendly when needed, but also discreet ! 
The water villa is a dream, waking up with just the sound of the water is just what we needed ! 
Food was also very good, fresh and diverse for our entire stay! 

Special mentions to : 
- Nico from the diving center, who made us fall in love with diving, we were considering only doing one dive and we finished with 3 ! Do not forget to go to and try, you dont want to miss that sensation of feeling like a fish in the océan ! Encore merci Nico ! 
- Julia from the réception, who welcomed us and helped us during our stay with any of our wishes ! She is a kind, Lovely and helpful ! She is surely a great asset to the team at Dhigufaru ! 
- Girish who was in charge of our room the entire stay ! Very helpful and kind also ! A spécial thanks for the set up on our bed celebrating our engagement, he is very talented ! 
- Visham, the photographer, who made us very confortable posing, even if we are more kind of shy ! He took such spécial photos of us, has great ideas for posing, and we are over the moon with the results !

Dhigufaru will always have a spécial place in our hearts, thank you again !

Holidays in Paradise !!

Just returned from 10 nights at this stunning island. 
My 5 star review is due to the island itself and the staff who absolutely made our holiday.
We stayed in a beach villa - huge, with a very impressive bathroom including a fantastic outdoor shower. Direct access to the beach with your own sun loungers (super comfy with thick mattresses)… we had no need for a pool due to the ocean 💙 
Powder soft white sand and crystal clear waters. Fantastic jetty and reef for snorkelling with daily feeding of the rays and sharks. The creatures are treated with respect and this daily session is special for all visitors to enjoy. 
Great buffet, no complaints from us. Always enough choice with bar service - we ate very well! 
The staff work so hard to make guests happy - our room was always spotless! Special mentions to:
Sujansh, Nu Nu and Ankid in the restaurant.
Abdul and Vena and Nitin at the pool bar. 
Liz at guest services - thank you to everyone!
