On Holiday Island, you can savor the splendid seclusion of the Maldives. Here, you will discover your own tropical island paradise, with lacy palms, white soft sandy beaches, crystal clear water and lots of sun-shine. This beautiful Island is the ideal retreat for those who deserve and desire a holiday away from the rush of the main stream. Holiday Island has 142 Luxury beach-front guest rooms with modern facilities. The main restaurant offers Western and Oriental cuisine with rich and delicious buffets. In addition the 24-hour coffee-shop and the bar serves varieties of a la' carte meals and drinks round the clock.





When you look at what this resort has to offer and compare the price you can pay for it, you must conclude that it is one of the best value for money resorts in the country. It is large and doesn’t look particularly "Maldivian", but it has all the ticks in all the boxes, plus for almost all our guests the services they received from "Holiday Island" is second to none.





Though the island is quiet large, when the resort is full you are not going to get the beach to yourself either, but on the other hand you will never be cramped as the beach extends almost all the way around the island (some erosion in the northeast corner). The south facing beaches are particularly good and, of course has the sun all day. The north side is a series of small beaches between small, low groines. The lagoon is too large for access from the beach but there are four trips a day to the reef edge and one a week further a field for snorkellers.

 Accommodation

All 142 rooms are the same and are individual bungalows except for 18 put together in pairs, with an adjoining door, for families. They are each spacious, well built and perfectly maintained. Top quality fixtures and fittings (from Singapore) are used throughout. There is a mini-bar, a hairdryer, a telephone in the room and the bathroom and a wide-screen satellite television with big speakers. The bathroom has an open-air part with a powerful hot shower duplicated in the inside bath. Unfortunately the single painting in the room is of dubious taste.

note: The hotel has 220V-240V A/C 50Hz in all sockets inside your room. We advise you not to drink water inside your bathrooms and taps, since its desalinated water.

  Superior Beach Bungalow

One door from the room opens to the beach and another opens onto the winding path that runs all the way around the inside of the island. Inside this paved path are carefully tended shrubs, flowers, palms and other fruiting trees and everyday a group of women from neighboring Maamigili are brought over to sweep the earth pristine white sands.
