We went to the resort for our Honeymoon, it was amazing our stay at Coco Bodu Hithi, the island just beautiful and incredibly romantic.
We originally booked a Water Villa but upon arrival, we were upgraded to an Escape Water Villa (a lovely surprise). The bed was huge and had the softest sheets imaginable, the view from our bedroom overlooking the ocean was divine, the indoor bathtub was two was amazing and we loved our own private pool. The villa over water is perfect, a few meters snorkeling we found baby sharks, rays, lots of different fishes and turtles. The breakfast is very wide and the service was fabulous, unfortunately in November the weather is not so good, but we had very sunny days. Thanks to all staff for everything. We would recommend this hotel to other families and will definitely stay again when we return to the Maldives.
The hotel is 45 minutes from the airport speedboat. There is no seaplane and there is a Chinese reception. The person in charge is very handsome, very responsible, the room is very good, clean and hygienic. Each room is equipped with a basin that can be used for punching. Preventing the sand from being brought into the room is very intimate and very user-friendly. I have two children in two rooms, and the extra children can have an extra bed. The hotel's service staff are very good, the drinking water supply is sufficient, and a bottle of red wine is also delivered. During the family's birthday, a small birthday cake is also delivered, which is great! The hotel water house is not the kind that I imagined to stick out from the beach. It doesn't feel as romantic as that. But overall is still very satisfied!
Stayed two nights (approximately 2.3w RMB) and concluded that it is a low cost hotel.
A. The island is not big. There are two restaurants, one Japanese and one chowder. The ingredients are fresh and expensive (based on the per capita consumption of domestic restaurants, the unit is changed from RMB to US dollars, which is the price of his home), but the taste is really average and the whole is salty. There are not many varieties of dishes.
B. Transportation on the island: The airport can be reached by speedboat in 35 minutes, roundtrip USD 357 / person, reaching the price of other long distance hotels by water. Annoyingly, when the first day arrived, the hotel actually said that our ticket was shared and we had to wait for the 4 passengers who accompanied us (their flight is expected to arrive in 1.5 hours). After serious negotiations over the phone, he finally arranged to go directly to the island. If you are not fluent in English, you can only be dumb.
C. The snorkeling environment is average, especially in the snorkelling area. Many corals are bleached. The snorkeling area is also very small. Even if it enters the live coral area, there are not too many species of fish. It can be regarded as Samsung (Sand House) or Four Star (Water House) snorkeling. Been to the best snorkeling in Ihulu Island.
D. For hotels without a reception desk, everything is handled by the butler. The steward is Chinese who speaks Chinese and the service is not one-on-one. Another Chinese couple was also hosted by the housekeeper. The service attitude is very good, although some things will be forgotten, it is probably too busy, there is no big problem in this regard. I still prefer the way to find the front desk.
E. The room is really nice, the area is large enough, and the pool bathtub is available. But this is probably the only strong point of this hotel.
F. The quality of all service staff is very good. Polite and professional.
Summary: Suitable for those who care about the room type, have no high requirements for snorkeling, are relatively wealthy and do not care about the cost-effective tourists. The hotel itself is not bad, the price is too high. . . For tourists who have been to the Maldives many times, this one is really not worth it.
I really have more money and burned my head. This is a big insight after my trip.

This was amazing place, even despite coming in October during rainy season. Service was exceptional from the begging- person awaiting us on the airport, speed boat transfer late evening, with nice welcome and service (water/towels/wifi)
We arrived late evening, so dinner packages were ready in the room. All Incl package was nice however we missed some food in between breakf-lunch and dinner. Issue is wifi which was not working properly/everywhere. Normally i think its ok as we do not need internet on such vacations, but as we needed to work one day it was hard.
Again anyways. Great service. Hospitality of staff in restaurant and bar too. Also reception who gave us a chance of later checkout. It was very convenient as we travelled with 2yrs old toddler. Room was spacious, kept clean every day properly + water bottles delivered daily. Good snorkling trips for free provided daily.

It’s been 11 days since I came back to write a review. You can only upload 20 pictures, much more than that. There are also many small animals, such as lizards that appear everywhere🦎, manta rays that can be seen on the beach every morning, small crabs🦀️, many hermit crabs... We go snorkeling at Dhawa Ihuru opposite every day, and there are many boats to and from the two islands every day . Most of the staff at Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru are very enthusiastic. Special mention should be made of Jien, the young lady at the front desk, who gave us meticulous care and attention~~ She is a Malaysian who can not only speak Chinese but also write Chinese, so awesome 👍; Khaleel who cleans the house every day is very serious and responsible; the three employees of our fishing trip, Captain Samsaad, Rauf and Faiz crew, helped us bait and teach us how to fish. In the end, we caught 10 fish, and we became The lunch the next day was delicious😋; One day when I was eating in a restaurant, I dropped the 50$ I put in my pocket, and Husham found it. Thank you very much🙏; Rajesh, who has been doing buffet barbecue, is very enthusiastic and has attentive service; needed What I particularly want to point out is that when I asked to extend my stay, Riyaz, who is responsible for the management of the two houses, helped to monitor whether there were vacancies. In the end, we were able to continue living in the original house without moving, and they gave us a very reasonable price. Thank you very much. 🙏; Also, one day the father of the child discovered that his brother Nazim was making a bird with coconut leaves (not sure if it was a coconut leaf, a long green leaf), so the father followed suit, and later 🈶️ a younger brother Shafdhaan took over to teach. Later, the father of the child learned to make different birds, and he also carried it forward and learned to make grasshoppers🦗, 🦐, 🦀️ by following the videos on the Internet, but in the end he learned the unique medicine ball here from the two brothers... It’s really good. ;The last thing I want to mention is that they built a traditional house of the former Malay locals on the beach for a few days. Alee and another employee (sorry did not remember the name) also gave us a detailed explanation... This is our This is the fourth time that Madai has been carried out. The scenery is still so beautiful and the corals are growing better. Our whole family really likes Madai and I believe we will go there again in the future. 😊
Snorkeling on the island is better, we go every day. Wife and child think they eat well. There is a ping-pong table, and we will play for a while after dinner. The services on the island were very enthusiastic. They also helped us to buy masks. The young lady in Shandong and the EMMA in Malaysia were very helpful. We were very moved. His wife said that he would go next time.
The weather is too bad and the hotel water house is good. The sand house is generally very rusty and not delicate. The hotel environment is not recommended because there are too many boats nearby and you can see the city of Male without the feeling of a water island and the land is too close at night Looking around, the lighting of the building in the distance is very poor. If the hotel on the four islands of Madai is the worst environment
We booked our Holiday through Blue bay Travel, expecting a peaceful, relaxed holiday. it would have been great if all the work wasn't being carried out. This is the complaint I have left with the company and still awaiting a formal reply. I'm not going to let this go. if your off to the island I would suggest you get confirmation regarding all the work being carried out. I have taken many videos for sound, so that you can here the noise Ref: Eriyadu Island Resort Maldives – All Inclusive Booking BBT-100321 Dear Sirs, I would like to make a formal complaint with our dissatisfaction regarding the holiday my wife and myself booked way back on the 6th March 2024 to Eriyadu Island Resort at the hotel North Male' Atoll Kaafu Atoll North Male Atoll Maldives 08210 The holiday was booked for 21st November 2024 to 28th November 2024 for 7 Nights. On the 24th October 2024, we received an email from one of your representatives Kevin Hall. Please see Reference below. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for booking with Blue Bay Travel. We are writing regarding your forthcoming holiday to the Maldives We have been notified by the resort that they are constructing a new dive centre towards the centre of the island which is fenced off. Work will take place 6 days a week from 7.30am-5.30pm, noise will be minimal as no heavy machinery is in use. We apologise for any inconvenience. Kind Regards Programme Changes Blue Bay Travel I did ask if the work was for the whole of the holiday and Kevin replied. Hi Mark I have forwarded this to our Customer Service team who will be able to clarify for you. The work is very minimal it wouldn't affect your holiday enjoyment but we just obviously need to make you aware of it. We received no response from customer services! This was supposed to be a holiday of a lifetime to the Maldives, tranquil peaceful relaxing. Couldn’t be further from it. Upon reaching this lovely island it was apparent that there was more than a dive centre being constructed in the middle of the island. They were also building a new jetty, and refurbishing a couple of the villas. As we disembarked from the speed boat you could clearly see huge pylons be hammered into the sea bed with a huge digger. Quite clearly mechanical. The staff were all lovely and welcoming. Upon arrival we were checked in and escorted to our villa. Within the first day we requested to be moved as the room 259 was opposite an old concrete pier blocking our view of the sea, not to mention next to the diesel digger. The following day the staff acted upon our request and moved us to our new villa 241 of which we thought was in a lovely position. We visited the Blitz that morning to be greeted with this huge digger at work the noise was horrendous, this went on all day into the evening around 8pm. With bright lights from the digger and the workman shining directly into the bar area. We made our way to the restaurant to be greeted with the loud noise
