This guesthouse was by far the highlight of my stay in Baa atoll! The staff make you feel like part of their family (thank you Husham) and give wonderful support in every need of your visit, like tours and transportation - everyone is very helpful and no request for assistance is ever a problem for them. Excellent food! Great chef and excellent price and quality ratio!!! Kendhoo is a cute little island - very colourful and well maintained. Locals are very friendly and welcoming. Loved my day trips to nearby picnic islands - a true castaway experience! Overall, a great experience - can't wait to come back again!

It's a wonderful place to stay in Kendoo. Great location, quiet&safe, nice garden, few rooms on the first floor and a sea view restaurant for breakfasts on the second floor. Ideal place for snorkling from the beach, also there are many places around to go by boat. I would definetly come back during manta season. Special thanks to Akmal, a guesthouse manager, we met us at the airport, was always ready to help, organized New year dinner on the beach.

Fasdheythere Inn offers nice rooms with good air-condition and high-speed wifi. The island is a nature paradise with amazing beaches, tall coconut palms, huge bouquet of flowers and green lush all around. On the snorkelling trip to nearby Island we were swimming with schools of fish and eagle rays. House reef is also amazing with many colourful fish, turtles, nursing- and black tip reef sharks and crystal-clear water. The edge of reef can be reached easily at any time. Snorkelling and watching fabulous living ocean at Kendhoo is unbelievable!!! Many thanks to Ajo, Siddu and the chef to make our holiday perfection.

Overwater villas are excellent, staff is very friendly and super helpful. Food (especially Spice) is very tasty. The island and the surrounding reef is absolutely awesome. Transfer from the airport and arranging the sea plane is very smooth, no headaches, our flight was delayed, they still did everything to make sure we catch the final sea plane of the day.

Drinks: We paid for all inclusive and the drink selection was huge! Several straight liqueurs (like vodka, two types of rum, tequila etc) you could mix with any soft drinks, about 10 cocktails to choose. Food: The buffet was incredible, the choices varied every meal but with some staples that were always there. The chef would cook in front of you - some days was burgers, some pastas, always eggs in the morning but with waffles as well! The table service was amazing, always making sure you had drinks. Dinner outside was great, with mood lighting on the tables as well. Rooms: We stayed 3 nights in a pool beach villa and it was HUGE and room service included every day. They cleaned the pool every day as well. They even set up a honeymoon decoration. The outdoor shower was brilliant! We then spent 2 nights in an over water villa and it was STUNNING! Smaller but it doesn’t matter, the views are unbelievable and there’s a reef about 100 metres up from the over water villas. We saw two black tip reef sharks which was just incredible, they didn’t bother us and was AMAZING to swim so close to them. People: The workers went above and beyond, always making sure you were comfortable and happy. They memorised our drink orders by the end of our stay. Afa handled most of our stay and moved us into a nicer room for our honeymoon - she really was amazing, thank you Afa! The workers were always doing something to make sure the island looked perfect: raking the sand footpaths, organising people’s beach chairs etc. passing anyone on the footpaths, they always said good morning or hello. Activities: I did a scuba dive and my husband snorkelled - we were the only ones on the boat, we were able to sit on the roof and look around. A pod of dolphins swam to the boat and my husband saw a sea turtle. I saw dozens of lion fish and moray eels, as well as abundant fish of all kinds. Easy dive and extremely enjoyable.

This is a brand new hotel that ticks all the boxes! The staff is very friendly and helpful with setting up transfers and arranging excursions. The hotel has a gorgeous roof terrace with a stunning view of the sunset over the ocean. The rooms are very clean, modern, luxurious and built with exclusive materials. There is a restaurant just across the street of the hotel that serves the breakfast and also have lunch and dinner. The island is very quiet with only a few tourists. The bikini beach is located approx. 5 min walk from the hotel. If you want to, you can get a ride from the hotel staff. The hotel supplies sun beds and umbrellas. There is beautiful snorkelling on the house reef just by the beach. During my stay I saw both stingrays, sea turtles and sharks and of course a lot of different and colourful fish and corals. There are some local shops where you can buy some snacks and essentials. Bring cash, preferably MVR, but USD works as well! I really enjoyed my stay and I wish Mohamed and his team all the best with their new and beautiful hotel!

The room had everything we needed, the hotel has several games you can play for free (such as table tennis, table football...). There is a lot of greenery on the premises which I really enjoyed. The breakfast was abundant and delicious. I really liked the chef, he was eager to impress with his cooking skills. The staff is very attentive and the manager tries to involve you in as much of island life as possible. He gave us a tour of the island, answering our many questions. We were invited to clean the island with the locals and to participate in a hen party. Unfortunately, we left before seeing the decorating of the island and witnessing the local wedding. The house reef is mostly made of soft coral (which I found more beautiful than the hard one) and it's easy to see sea turtles there. Unfortunately, I arrived with an ear infection and the manager was quick to take me to the doctor. He even brought me the meds so I didn't have to go to the pharmacy myself, without even being asked! The entire hotel staff was very kind. Between the islands we visited (others being Male, Fulhadhoo, B. Maalhos and Digurah), Kudarikilu is, by far the best for experiencing the local life - it seems most genuine. In the evenings, you can observe locals fishing from the pier, admire baby sharks and stingrays that spend the night in the shallows, watch locals play volleyball (or even join in).

A great hotel for the relatively low price. It is located on a beautiful beach with a coral reef for snorkelling. You can see lots of colourful fish, turtles, rays and sharks there. The hotel's own tours are also great, for example snorkelling with the manta rays. You can also get to know the island life of the locals. The hotel staff are very friendly and help with every question. If you can manage without alcohol on holiday, then this is a great choice. You don't notice the airport.

Wonderful hotel with beachfront location. Super attentive staff always welcoming you with a smile. We did a couple of excursions with them and they were great. It was by far the best hotel in our trip to Maldives. They supply beach towels every day and lovely breakfast. We tried the dinner at the beach and it was great.

Having traveled extensively across the Maldives, I can confidently say that Bageecha Stay is the best guesthouse I have ever experienced. From the moment I arrived, it was clear that this was more than just a place to stay—it felt like home, thanks to the incredible hospitality and warm atmosphere created by the host, Ismael, and his exceptional team. Ismael went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of my visit was perfect. His attention to detail, deep knowledge of the island, and genuine care for his guests made my stay unforgettable. Whether organizing activities or sharing insights about local life, his passion for hospitality truly shone through. Every meal was a masterpiece, combining fresh local ingredients with remarkable skill and creativity. From mouthwatering Maldivian delicacies to innovative international dishes, each bite was a treat. I can honestly say it was some of the best food I’ve had in the Maldives, and I looked forward to every meal during my stay. The guesthouse itself was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, offering a perfect balance of modern amenities and local charm. Its location on Dharavandhoo is ideal for exploring the stunning beauty of Baa Atoll, from its pristine beaches to the incredible underwater world of Hanifaru Bay. Bageecha Stay is a shining example of what guesthouses in the Maldives should strive to be. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic, warm, and unforgettable Maldivian experience. Thank you, Ismael and Seneca, for making my stay so special—I can’t wait to return!
