Services & Transport
Diamonds Thudufushi Maldives Resort & Spa prioritizes personalized service, ensuring high-quality guest experience. Transfers are arranged through a 35-minute seaplane ride from Male, and the nearby coral reef enhances exploration opportunities.
“The overwater villas certainly provide an intimate experience with the reef, yet the island itself cultivates a feeling of seclusion even when fully booked. I particularly appreciate the emphasis on culinary diversity with themed dining, and the seaplane transfer makes arrival seamless. For those prioritizing both marine exploration and exceptional food, this resort presents a compelling option.”

My stay at Diamonds Thudufushi was absolutely magical! From the moment the staff greeted us off the seaplane, I felt special. The rooms are beautifully modern, and I loved being able to swim right from my water villa directly into the vibrant underwater world. Dining was a gastronomic delight, with the chefs crafting exquisite meals. However, while everything was mostly perfect, I wish there had been a bit more variety in the buffet options. Overall, this place is a piece of paradise, and I can't wait to return!
