About the island

Dusit Thani Maldives officially opened in 2012 and is part of Dusit International. The hotel is located in Baa Atoll, reachable from Male by a 35-minute seaplane or a 25-minute domestic flight plus a 10-minute speedboat. This is a very good hotel overall. The island has 100 villas in total; except for ordinary beach villas, all room types have private pools, and room facilities are very good, including Bose speakers. In addition, the main restaurant offers buffet breakfast and dinner, tastes good, and has many food varieties.

Why stay here

Snorkeling grade A, all room types except ordinary beach villas have private pools, and the hotel often has promotions, plus the Maldives' characteristic seaplane arrival—all requirements are met. Who else but this one?

Highlights

First, this hotel often has promotions, and overall all aspects are quite balanced and good, including island facilities, service, and snorkeling; second, meal plans are rich, from half board to all-inclusive, and the dining taste suits Chinese palates; third, the island has a huge fan-shaped infinity pool, deepest only 1.5m, photogenic. Rooms have Bose speakers, and except for ordinary beach villas, all room types have private pools.

Before you go

First, during promotions rooms are hard to book, and the beach outside most beach villas is relatively small; second, note that the "Water villa with pool" room type is not a pure overwater villa but half beach/half water—at high tide it is fully overwater, at low tide half on the beach and half in the water.
