Die Lagune am Bikini Beach in Dhangethi ist sehr flach. Für Kleinkinder und absolute Nichtschwimmer sicher perfekt. Uns hat es dort nicht gefallen. Wir kennen viele Malediven Strände. Für einen Strandurlaub gibt es schönere Inseln. Trotzdem hat die Inseln das typische Flair einer Local Island. Wir empfehlen die Insel besonders für Kurzbesucher und Taucher, da sich die schönsten Thilas der Malediven im Dhangethi Channel befinden und auch Wanderrouten der Walhaie direkt vor der Haustür sind.
We had an amazing stay here and would like to express our gratitude once again for the warm and welcoming hospitality. The service was outstanding - the staff were friendly, helpful, and genuinely sincere in their interactions. The rooms and surroundings were absolutely breathtaking, with pristine blue waters, soft white sands, and the added bonus of being mosquito-free. The marine life was a definite highlight, easily accessible for snorkeling right from the beach. The beds were comfortable, and the expertly crafted drinks served by the talented bartenders were a true delight. The only aspect that didn't quite meet our expectations was the food. While we appreciated the effort to offer delicious fish dishes tailored to our preferences, the buffet options leaned too heavily towards Western cuisine. We understand the need to cater to a diverse Western clientele, but we also believe that travelers should embrace local flavors to fully immerse themselves in foreign cultures. It would have been wonderful to see a greater variety of local dishes, allowing us to explore the rich tapestry of unfamiliar flavors. This aspect of the dining experience is the sole reason why we're giving a 4-star review. Despite this, our overall experience was incredible, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time in this stunning paradise.
This is the most stunning place I have ever visited. The garden and green space offer the best "pedicure" experience. The sand on the beach is just as white as it appears in the pictures. The food and service are customized to meet the needs of each customer. There is live music and a beautiful show to enjoy. The golf facilities are top-notch. The people here are incredibly friendly. The only thing I would have liked is a few more restaurant options if I were staying for three weeks. If luxury still holds any meaning, it is definitely present here. I am thrilled to be returning in a few days.
Please note that lifeguards supervise 43 beaches in the country, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!
