Guest UserFrom the moment we arrived at the jetty until the second we waved goodbye, our stay at Ranthari Maldives was nothing short of perfection. If you are looking for a seamless blend of comfort, and authentic Maldivian island vibes, this is the place to be.
The Arrival & Stay
The transition from the speedboat to the hotel was incredibly smooth. We were greeted with warm smiles and a refreshing welcome that immediately set the tone for a relaxing vacation. The rooms were pristine, clean, and offered a nice views that made every morning feel like a dream.
The Heart of Ranthari: The Staff
What truly sets Ranthari apart is the incredible team. Every single staff member went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable. They are genuinely kind, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. Their hospitality didn't just feel like ”service”—it felt like being taken care of by friends.
The Experience & Activities
The atmosphere at the hotel is peaceful, making it the perfect spot to disconnect.
Top Recommendations for a Memorable Trip:
If you’re planning your stay, here are a few activities you shouldn't miss:
Shark Point (A Must-Do!): This was the highlight of the trip! Go to the Shark Point is an exhilarating and unforgettable experience. Seeing these majestic creatures in their natural habitat is something you simply cannot skip.
Snorkeling Safari: Ukulhas is famous for its biodiversity. Swimming with sea turtles and manta rays is a life-changing experience.
Sandbank Picnic: For something truly magical, book a trip to a private sandbank. It’s just you, the white sand, and the endless blue ocean.
Dolphin Cruise: There is nothing quite like watching dolphins leap against a Maldivian ocean.
Island Cafe Hopping: Take a stroll through the local village to enjoy the cafe culture. It’s a great way to soak in the local rhythm of life.
Leaving was the hardest part! Thank you to the entire Ranthari team for making this trip so unforgettable. Highly recommend for all travellers!
Special thanks Mr. Mustafa, Mr. Rezaul & all staffs for the hospitality!☺️

This is the twelfth time I have been to Maldives. The biggest highlight of this island is that the food is very delicious. The hotel buffet has a variety of main dishes every day. In the eight days we stayed, there was seafood barbecue one day, steak one day, hot cabbage beef one day, Turkish kebab meat sandwich one day, etc. Anyway, they are all delicious, especially the variety of Western pastries and fruits, which are always changing. Every day, there are fried pasta and salads on the spot, which are very delicious! The hotel water house has a disadvantage that there is no stairs to go into the water (so I suggest not using the water house) because the sea view beach house has stairs at the door to go into the sea, so you can go into the sea to see fish anytime and anywhere, which is very convenient. In addition, the hotel beach is not good, but the diving is great. You can see a lot of fish wherever you go into the water. In addition, the hotel front desk manager is very enthusiastic and attentive. When we proposed to go to the island on the first day, due to the hotel's poor arrangement, we wasted six hours waiting in vain. The manager sent us a return seaplane to compensate for our time loss. Thank you very much. This hotel is very suitable for a trip of more than ten days. My wife and I like it very much and will go there again next time we have the opportunity!

Xiaoxiaoxiao-The views are absolutely stunning, and the service was incredibly friendly. They even decorated our room and sent a bottle of wine when they found out it was our honeymoon! This resort offers the best value for money among all the island resorts; it's not overly expensive, but the beautiful scenery is definitely worth it.

We had a wonderful stay at Athiriveli Maldives. The location is excellent, just a short walk from the jetty. The service was truly impressive, from the owner to the buggy driver, and even the bellboy who also doubles as the chef and cleaner. Everyone was warm, helpful, and attentive.
Mr. Ali brought us for a farm visit, where we enjoyed fresh fruits by the beach..such a unique experience! He even gifted us a wahoo fish, which was absolutely delicious.
For the comfort, hospitality, and experiences provided, the price is definitely affordable and worth it. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the island!

Guest UserThe location is absolutely fantastic! Just a few steps out the door and you're at the snorkeling beach, ready to jump in the water anytime. All the staff here are genuinely warm and friendly. When you're in a foreign country, the biggest worry is often the language barrier, but that's not an issue here. From helping you arrange excursions to fulfilling daily needs, they all greet you with a heartfelt smile – it's not just standard service, it feels more like visiting a friend's home. Dinner at the restaurant in the evenings was really cozy and completely free of any stiffness. The room was clean, and breakfast was good. They cleaned the room and changed towels daily, and the bathroom had no strange odors. They even specifically reserved a room with an absolutely stunning sea view for me, which I was very happy about! If I ever come back to the Maldives, I'll definitely stay here again.

Guest UserHotel is new and neat. The room is fantastic and exceeded my expectations.
We were also pleasantly surprised by the pick up and drop off service from the terminal and hotel throwing in free breakfast for us.
There is a lift which is handy, though very small (barely fits 4 people).
The hotel pool is small but clean and should be good for kids. The only thing to be aware of is the sound travels above and becomes quite loud for other guests.

It was an amazing experience of living on such a small island, but they will provide everything you need. The food is just wonderful, stuff is friendly and helpful, atmosphere is nice and very Italian oriented. Reccomend for those who loves privacy and very calm vacations in beautiful place! Would add TV into the rooms for the days with bad weather.

The plane was late on the first day, so I stayed in Sheraton for one night and walked from midnight to midnight. I didn't see the scenery of Sheraton. There is no time to walk around the island.
The seaplane was picked up early the next morning. I first received a room from the airport and waited for more than an hour, with snacks available. By water, most of them are Chinese. I have lived in various islands before, so I chose the most distinctive water house. Feeling super good and stayed for a few more nights.
The island is very clean and the house is awesome. Breakfast is included. Because Maday was 4 hours behind in China, he got up without pressure.
Everyone has written a lot before, and I want to remind you to pay attention to the safety of water sports. Although there is a general explanation on the island, there is no special reminder. And it seems that all the people who come to the hotel by default understand it, so I saw the neighbors launch into the water without wearing life jackets. This is really dangerous. No matter how good the technology is, the ocean is the ocean, and there is an undercurrent, and it is difficult to swim back when it is washed away. Feel the need to remind. And the life jackets in the house are quite large, which is not suitable for Asian women. You can call for a trumpet.
On the island, ask the coach to go snorkeling together, and then dive deeply, just by the cliff, and see a lot of beautiful scenery. The first time I went to the new sea, the coach took it. It may be the time when I launch into the water. The near shore feels the waves are relatively large. It is not easy to grasp. It is more urgent than the previous Great Barrier Reef.
There are corals near the water house, and there is no color, but there are still many fishes. Once I saw the devil fish in the water, there were two small sharks swimming around. Every time you launch a different route there are surprises.
Three restaurants on the island were tired quickly. Remember to tip. Tipping is needed to help take pictures or serve the table. I heard a waiter talking about Asians not giving tips or anything. Because tip culture is not popular in Asia.
You can join a night dive in the evening. Otherwise, no water is allowed after 6 o'clock. I don't like clubbing, it's really boring. But repeatedly reminded that we must pay attention to safety. Because of the language incompatibility, Ma Dai also generally has good swimming skills, which has led many tour guides to be inadequate. I do not understand that many Chinese cannot swim. Easy to go wrong. There were no life jackets to go to sea or water. A small boat went out. The brain hole is a bit big.

ExistentialistNever met such a good relationship, the curator of the hotel is always on contact and is ready to help with any issue, helped to get to the island, all explained, in all helped, very comfortable to live here. The 3rd floor and 2nd floor rooms are a huge plus. The room is beautiful, there is everything and even a separate parish, only the view is not available, as the hotel is in the center of the island. Breakfasts - food, on the choice of 4-5 options, necessarily try mashuni, national breakfast. All restaurants and markets are nearby, the island is small.
