Hotels With breakfast in Kaafu Atoll, Maldives

Perfect location - just 15/20 minutes by speedboat from Malé Airport, with a convenient round-trip transfer option (USD 110), ideal if you prefer to avoid long travel times. The food was delicious, with buffet options available at one of the restaurants if you’re on a meal plan. Otherwise, there are several other restaurants on the island to explore. The island has a wide range of villas, and you can swim freely around different areas. Standard rooms are a bit small but all are beach-facing right from the door, which is a big plus. Deluxe rooms are more spacious, though not all offer a direct beach view you may need to step outside to enjoy it. Marine life is a highlight - different parts of the island offer unique underwater experiences, including colorful fish, small sharks, and beautiful coral reefs. The staff were friendly and attentive. Rooms were cleaned twice daily, and the entire island was well-maintained and spotless throughout our stay. One minor downside is that seaplanes frequently pass overhead since the island is close to the airport, which may be noticeable at times. Overall, a fantastic stay with great service, vibrant marine life, and a lively atmosphere.

The room was absolutely satisfying – quite spacious with a large and comfortable double bed. The sea view from the balcony was excellent. The ground floor (G level) houses the restaurant, while what Trip.com calls the 'first floor' rooms (standard sea view rooms) are actually on the second floor. Deluxe sea view rooms, which are slightly more expensive, are on the third floor and above. The hotel guests are a mix of Europeans/Americans and Chinese. The front desk staff spoke English and I experienced no discrimination whatsoever. Some reviews mentioned that higher floors were given to Westerners, but perhaps they just booked a second-floor room to begin with. Actually, the second-floor rooms are also beautiful, perfectly level with the palm trees. Because Trip.com noted my booking as a 'first floor' room (which is actually the second floor, as the actual first floor is the 'G' level with only the restaurant and front desk, no rooms), I specifically requested a deluxe sea view room on a higher floor than the first, and I was given a room on the fifth floor with an amazing view. When arriving by speedboat, a dedicated staff member was there to pick us up. Although it was only about 200 meters, the hotel still used a golf cart for us and a three-wheeled vehicle for our luggage, delivering everything directly to our room after check-in. When departing, the front desk booked our speedboat tickets for us. The front desk manager personally saw us off to the golf cart and politely asked about our stay experience. The staff carried our luggage all the way to the boat. The service was truly superb. On our first day, we went out to sea, and I left my underwear on the bed since I was wearing my swimsuit. When we returned, the room had been cleaned, and my pajamas and underwear were neatly folded and arranged on the bed. Because the room attendant was male, my daughter and I felt a bit embarrassed. For the following days, we put up the 'Do Not Disturb' sign, and after returning in the afternoon, we only requested fresh towels and water refills. The staff would still often ask if we needed our room cleaned – the service was truly outstanding. The ground floor breakfast area has plenty of seating, and breakfast starts at 6:30 AM, which is perfect for not delaying our excursions. There's a wide variety of food, including egg pancakes and corn pancakes that cater to Chinese tastes. I didn't pre-book dinner, but there was a good selection, costing $20 per person, and cash payment was accepted. There are many island excursions available, offering plenty of deep-sea experiences and photo opportunities. All in all, my experience at Kaani Hotel on Maafushi Island was fantastic, and I highly recommend it.

I had booked the sea view room. The view, staff, environment, and breakfast — everything was amazing. The standout was a female receptionist; I can't recall her name, but her behavior was wonderful, and she was helpful.

A must choice for honeymoon. We booked through trip.com and got a massive discount (compared to the official website). Absolutely no hassle with the airport pick up and drop offs. We took the breakfast included package only and it was a great deal for the price. Later on we had light snacks in late afternoon and in villa dining, followed by dinner at their restaurant/bar (Bluu). Pricing wise it was a steal to not have gone full board with lunch/dinner. We recommend the Sunrise Pool Villa as it had the MOST privacy (even though Sunset pool villa was their most exclusive option, it lacked privacy). You can still be enjoying the sunset from their bar/restaurant. Would recommend to skip the dolphin cruise as the boat taken is on the smaller size (compared to the waves, possible for you to get sea sick) For a couple, rather to have experience at the spa for the same price.

In our opinion, this hotel feels a bit like a Turkish resort. Since we came here after staying at Tinadhoo, the differences were quite noticeable. The restaurant doesn't have a great view, but the variety of food is decent, and there's a kids' corner. Buggies transport guests around the island, which is very convenient and fun for children. What we didn't like is that because of this, there are a lot of concrete paths, so you can't walk barefoot. The service was a bit disappointing; it felt very mass-produced. They didn't respond about our transfer or contact us themselves, so we had to find their counter at the airport on our own and call the hotel. This was probably because we weren't arriving by plane. We also didn't receive a welcome bag, and the bed for the third person was only made up after we called reception. These are minor things, but you tend to notice them more at a resort. Overall, we liked our villa; it wasn't new, but everything was well-maintained. In front of our villa was a lagoon, and beyond that a breakwater, so there wasn't really an ocean view. However, thanks to the breakwater, the lagoon was very calm. There's a reef, but it's quite monotonous; the corals are brown and all look the same, and you can only swim over them at high tide. There are large fish and stingrays, so there's enough to see for a couple of days. Overall, it's not bad, but we definitely wouldn't return. It would probably be a good choice for families with children, though, due to its proximity to the airport and kid-friendly amenities.

In all my travels, the Maldives is the first country where you don't need to exchange dollars for local currency because you'll lose money on the transfer. Everywhere accepts either dollars or rufiyaa, but each has its own exchange rate. It's the same with everything. I contacted the hotel in advance and found out how much a boat from the airport would cost. They quoted me $25, but when I arrived, it was $30. I booked a sea-view room for 5 days and was assigned to the first floor. 🤦♀️ Of course, there was no sea view, plus the smell of the kitchen made it impossible to move. The room was cleaned every day, and it was quite good. The hotel itself is new, but the furniture is already cracked, and the bed linen and towels are good. Breakfast is very poor; I had lunch and dinner there too. There's no coffee machine, all the coffee is instant, so I ate juices and smoothies. There were flyers at the reception desk about fishing and snorkeling. I wanted to book one, but the girl said it was only for groups of 6 or more. I asked if she could help, and she said okay, and that was it. No interest whatsoever.

This island is great, offering excellent value for money. The Italian and Thai restaurants serve delicious food, and the buffet's bread and desserts are also fantastic. I found the snorkeling environment to be excellent as well. An unforgettable trip!

The hotel was incredibly easy to find, practically right in front of me as soon as I arrived in Maafushi. It was so close to the airport that I didn't have to wander around at all after my transfer, which was a huge relief with all my luggage. Its accessibility also made it super convenient for tours and getting around during my stay. There were tons of cafes and restaurants nearby, perfect for grabbing a bite or just relaxing. The location was ideal for soaking in the Maafushi vibe. A big plus was the really fast Wi-Fi; I had no issues using the internet, and uploading photos or streaming videos during my trip was completely stress-free, which I really appreciated. The pool was well-maintained and pleasant to use, and the panoramic views of Maafushi from there were absolutely stunning. My only minor gripe was that I didn't find the staff to be exceptionally friendly, which was a bit of a letdown. However, overall, the convenience and location of this accommodation made it a thoroughly satisfying stay.

such a wonderful hotel, from the services, hotel staff, rooms and the breakfast! we have been greeted by the hotel staff at the harbour once arrived to Dhiffushi and the hotel staff fetch us by hotel taxi. it was just 2 mins journey. while waiting for the room, the hotel staff bring us to a quick tour around the island by hotel taxi and it was totally wonderful! i have stayed for two nights, with two different rooms (premium view room with balcony at the top floor and also superior room at ground floor) which both of it are excellent! they hv rooftop club area as well which opens at 4pm till midnight which you can use all the amenities there including snooker! we need to leave early on our last day and they have provide us with packed breakfast since we need to depart at 630am. to conclude, this hotel is very very highly recommended! we have an amazing stay ❤️
