Everything about this island is a dream! They are very well organized from pick up to leaving. I can’t thank the staff enough for their amazing work! Our stay was the best in Maldives. Would highly recommend!!
Nothing!
Stunning

La cabaña era súper espaciosa, muy nueva y equipada. El servicio de limpieza se adapta al cliente.
المكان جميل جدا ومتنوع وراقي
الاسعار غالية 😇
Öncelikle tesisin konumu çok güzeldi. Ulaşım sandığımız kadar zahmetli değildi. Uçak+25 dakika deniz uçağı vardı. Bizi yormadı hatta deniz uçağı keyifliydi diyebilirim. Yemekleri birçok kültüre hitap edebilecek gibiydi.
Daha çok yemek çeşidi olabilirdi, her cumartesi konsepti yapabilirler mesela bugün normal (herkese hitap edebilecek yemekler) +olarak o güne özel İtalyan gecesi yapabilirler (tamamen ücretsiz). Ekstralar pahalıydı
Non appena ho messo piede sull’isola mi sono subito sentita a casa, ho apprezzato molto lo stile barefoot luxury, liberatorio, autentico. Le costruzioni sono ecosostenibili, con minimo impatto sull’ambiente, plastic free, rispettano l’armonia della natura. Ho soggiornato in una villa beach, molto spaziosa e con caratteristico bagno maldiviano, servizio di pulizia molto efficiente e, se necessario, effettuato anche più volte al giorno. La cura per la pulizia si estende anche per tutti i luoghi comuni, sempre in ordine. La cucina del ristorante Soul strepitosa, ho avuto il piacere di assaggiare diverse delizie tipiche maldiviane e ogni giorno l’offerta spaziava da piatti della cultura occidentale, asiatica e locale. Qualità molto alta. L’assenza di tecnologia invasiva mi ha permesso un totale distacco dal mondo digitale e questo ha fatto sì che mi focalizzassi su suoni, colori e profumi naturali. Una noto di merito a tutto il personale, mi è piaciuto l’approccio professionale, ma mai impostato, sempre pronti a scambiare due chiacchiere e a dare ottimi consigli.
Petite île comparée à d'autre complexes hôteliers des Maldives. Les aménagements sont propres et bien entretenus. Le restaurant buffet est qualitatif et varié. Le restaurant Flame est très bien également. Les chambres sont spatieuses et propres.
Le personnel en fait un peu trop des fois. La discrétion serait appréciée. L'excursion très chère pour voir des requins baleines fut décevante. Elle s'est résumé à apercevoir une ombre au fond de l'eau, au milieu de dizaines de palmes de touristes après 1h30 de bateau à l'aller (et idem au retour). Ils auraient dû proposer un spot pour voir autre chose en compensation. Aucun souvenirs pour cette excursion, pas même une photo pour le prix. Lors du départ, on nous a fait patienter pendant près de 3h à la réception, nous demandant d'être prêt pour 12h00, puis 13h, puis 14h, pour partir au final à 15h. 3h perdues que l'on aurait pu rentabiliser autrement quand on voit le prix du séjour. Enfin, grosse déception de voir l'eau des piscines chlorées rejetées dans le lagon lors du nettoyage, ainsi que certaines douches des villas sur pilotis (les bulles de savons le prouvent). C'est incompréhensible, alors que les coraux morts jonchent les plages...
In 8 minuten kann man gemütlich um die Insel herumgehen. Der Strand und das Wasser sind top! Schönes Hausriff und am Abend kann man Haie und Rochen beobachten. Die Privatsphäre bei den Sunset Beach Villas ist sehr gut!
Personal sehr unfähig. Sind zwar sehr freundlich aber haben die Aufmerksamkeit von einem Fisch. Einfache Getränkebestellungen sind zu schwierig. Oft die Getränke bekommen nachdem wir mit dem Essen fertig waren.
Tudo perfeito!
Maravilhosa
Almost everything was perfect. The staff were for the most part amazing, the cleanliness was unreal, the views and peacefulness. It’s like heaven on earth - the water villa is superb
Liked absolutely everything except for two things. Firstly, we went with our 1 year old son and pushing him around in his stroller was very difficult. It was not user friendly in that respect, and so there needs to be walkways, not just for children but also elderly, disabled etc. Secondly it does cost a lot for extras such as alcohol etc and it’s not clear when you book that there’s an all inclusive option. Thirdly, we’ve unfortunately travelled during the Middle East war happening right now and I feel that the staff knew for 4 whole days what the situation was and were not proactive enough to help me find alternative suitable flights. As I’m writing this, I’ve been left stranded.
Direi quasi tutto
Se devo trovare una cosa sono i lettini e gli ombrelloni che cozzano un po’ con il resort maldiviano
Literally everything ✨✨😍
The food, I expected to see more like seafood, raw fish, scallops, sushi... The food was not that yummy
Staff gentilissimo e sempre disponibile, la nostra water villa era davvero confortevole ed è stato fantastico vedere il tramonto dalla vasca idromassaggio! Il cibo è buonissimo, sia quello del ristorante buffet sia quello di tutti i ristoranti! Il mare è davvero spettacolare e così come la barriera corallina! Ottimo punto anche per le varie escursioni, siamo riusciti a vedere sia le mante che lo squalo balena! Complimenti anche ai ragazzi dello scuba diving center che sono stati molto gentili, professionali e ci hanno regalato dei bellissimi video delle escursioni! Super consigliato!
Genieten van alle rust om je heen, op bloten voeten leven en het geweldige huisrif rondom het eiland. Stukje paradijs in de oceaan. Alles tot in de puntjes geregeld, zelfs tot aan de de security op het vliegveld. Heel netjes allemaal.
Minden tökéletes volt!
最高のロケーション! ハウスリーフ! ご飯も美味しい!
1日、定期メンテナンスで深夜水が止まりました💦
Todo! Es un verdadero paraíso! Las habitaciones, la limpieza, la calma, la variedad de restauración y opciones de clases de yoga, gimnasio, etc! El personal no puede ser más amable y atento! Mención especial a Yoga que nos preparó unos cócteles en la piscina increíbles además de ser súper simpático y alegre. Ojalá volver pronto.

Everything- it was perfect! Just the right size, loads of activities and the staff/ service is beyond excellent. The island and resort itself is unreal.
We had an absolutely amazing time at Nova, and couldn't reccomend it enough. We had a smooth and simple transfer by seaplane (with a couple of hour wait due to our flight arriving early). The hotel is glorious, quiet and stunning. We had both a beach villa and water villa and both were beyond our high expectations. Although it's a lovely place to relax and be at peace, the watersports and excursions kept us nice and busy. We went on the quests for whale shark, manta, turtle and snorkel safaris and saw everything other than a whale shark, but every other whale shark quest that went whilst we were there were successful, so we were just unlucky. But they tried hard to find the whale shark and even gave loads of extra time to look but they do make it clear before you go it's not a 100% success rate since they are wild animals. All the other quests where amazing and so much fun. The watersports available where also all such a blast and they gave so much time to enjoy each activity. Particular shout-out to Agy who supported all our watersports and most excursions. He was so funny and went beyond to give us the unquestionably best experience we could have! The food was amazing. The soul buffet had endless and different options each day and it was one of the highlights of the trip. We looked forward to each meal every time and were never once disappointed. Overall I would highly recommend Nova and we will definitely return in the future
Geen kussens op de ligbedden. Niet voldoende schaduw aan zwembad of strand. Te weinig parasols.
Island is beautiful and although small it was nice to walk around. The seaside around island is amazing, we've seen tons of fish, sharks, and even snorkeld with cute turtle. Food was great, staff us great and very attentive. This hotel also surprised me with awesome gym, this was first time I was extremly happy with hotel gym :)
There's one thing that really annoyed me. If you get a non water villa, you'll hear some machinery working 24/7. It's probably some water processing or generator and I understand that we as guests need water and electricity but it still was very annoying. It wasn't magical quite experience that I expected.
Zalige 4 dagen in Nova! De kamers zijn reuze (tip: neem de gewone beach bungalow zonder sunset dus aan de noordoost kant) daar heb je totaaaal geen wind in tegenstelling met de bungalows aan de westkant. Het eten was heerlijk in de soul kitchen resto. Er wordt ook aandacht gegeven aan het koraal. Er werkt een biologe. Je kan snorkelen in het huisrif. De moeite!!! De duiktrips waren ook zeer leuk. We hebben er echt een heerlijke vakantie opzitten. In de eerste plaats door de superstaff die er werkt. Bravo aan hen. Zonder hen zou de sfeer toch anders zijn.
De cocktails zouden met verse ingrediënten moeten kunnen klaar gemaakt worden voor die prijs. Ach en de restaurant flames is veel te hoog geprijsd. Je kan beter gewoon naar het soul kitchen restaurant gaan. Het is er heerlijk. De showcooking restaurant is wel eens leuk om te doen.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Nova Maldives during the first half of August 2025. We booked both a Sunset View Villa and a Water Villa, and both were exceptional. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this was a special place. The design of the villas is truly “Instagrammable” – stylish, modern, and incredibly comfortable. Everything was meticulously clean and met the highest standards. The staff deserves special recognition for their outstanding hospitality. They were consistently friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist with a smile, making us feel genuinely welcome and well-cared for. The dining experience was a highlight as well. The food offered a good variety and was consistently delicious, catering to different tastes. The resort itself is beautifully maintained, with pristine grounds that contribute to a serene and tranquil atmosphere. It’s the perfect setting to completely disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life and truly relax. We genuinely cannot recall any aspects that we disliked. Nova Maldives truly delivered on all fronts. A little tip for future guests: don’t forget to pack plenty of high-SPF sunscreen! The tropical sun here is wonderfully warm, but it’s also quite intense, so protecting your skin is essential for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
Staff were so friendly view was fantastic. Room was large enough and clean.
Nothing, everything was fantastic
The staff were all really friendly and made us feel at home. The food was also really high quality and there are several restaurants in the resort including Soul Kitchen the buffet, Flames which is a grill house, Wink which is the bar and Mizu which serves high quality Japanese food. The snorkeling site was also really good with a lot of different types of fish and coral to look at. Even though the weather wasn’t perfect, we still had a wonderful time in our stay at Nova.😁
Everything was perfect😁
La gentillesse du staff
Petit manque d'activité Et il faut rajouter +27% à tous les prix de la carte et activité
- Pool villa facing the ocean was awesome - my wife and daughter loved it - All inclusive was great - Plenty of fish to see - also saw nurse sharks and rays - Japanese restaurant was absolutely great and with good ambiance
- floating breakfast was nice as an experience but was okay - for food, variety would have been good - did not expect to take sea plane and then boat
Tudo. Excedeu todas as expectativas. Ilha paradisíaca. Boa organização com os Hidroaviões. Vilas de água excecionais. Excelente staff. Praias fabulosas.
Conforto das cadeiras no Buffet sem apoio de braços e muito profundas. Podiam ter colçhões nas espreguiçadeiras para haver mais conforto.
Perfect Vacation!
The location was absolutely incredible, and the staff were outstanding. The excursions were a highlight that was fun, well-organized, and truly made the trip memorable. Our housekeeper, Sharaf, was fantastic, and the excursion team was top notch
We booked a jacuzzi room, but the jacuzzi never worked. Each time we tried, it would start up and then show an error. Since we were only there for two nights, my wife and I didn’t want the hassle of moving rooms or having an engineer interrupt our time together. When I mentioned it to the front desk, their response felt dismissive - focused more on protecting their bottom line than on fixing the issue. This attitude reflected a broader theme throughout our stay: constant nickel-and-diming. We purchased the “all-inclusive” package, but far too many items were excluded. Drinks, food, excursions, water sports, rentals, minibar, even basic things, came with asterisks and extra charges. Every menu was filled with fine print. For a resort positioned as high-end, it felt cheap and misleading.
Noi abbiamo soggiornato in una Villa sul mare con la jacuzzi. Bellissima!!! Questo resort è come vivere in un sogno. Il presonale è molto simpatico e disponibile, il cibo ottimo e le spieggie sono fantastiche. TOP!!!
El entorno es espectacular, sus aguas transparentes y la cantidad de peces que hay en los alrededores del hotel

Лучший отдых. При том, что объездил десятки стран и еще больше отелей. Но по-порядку. Бронирование: всё четко, заранее была прислана программа развлечений(дайвинг, морские прогулки и т.д), с ценами, датами; наличие ресторанов и меню в них, программы для празднования юбилея свадьбы. Всё с ценами и подробным описанием. Очень удобно распланировать свой отдых и бюджет. Встреча, заселение: встретили в аэропорту, завезли к терминалу с гидропланами, перелет, встреча в отеле. Всё четко и быстро. Бунгало было готово, заселили сразу. Установили свое приложение отеля при регистрации. Очень удобное приложение. В нем всё есть, что касается отдыха и активностей на острове. Бунгало, остров. В отеле была реновация в 2022 году. Не знаю, все ли бунгало в таком состоянии, как было у нас. Но наше, как-будто новое: мебель, сантехника - всё в отличном состоянии, убирают хорошо и каждый день. Сама концепция бунгало тоже очень продумана, получаешь максимальное уединение. Остров очень зеленый, с хорошим песчаным заходом в океан, ежей нигде не видели. Риф не везде живой, но напротив ресепшен очень живописный, с массой рыб, акул. В отеле не подкармливают морскую живность, как на некоторых других резортах. Видимо поэтому нет скопления скатов и черепах. Развлечения. Есть стандартный набор: дайвинг, снорклинг, морские прогулки(манты, китовые акулы, черепахи, рыбалка, круизы) и тд. Все на хорошем уровне организации и безопасности. Каждый вечер в основном баре или на берегу живая музыка. Тоже всё на хорошем уровне. Но почему-то было очень мало людей вечером в баре. Обидно за музыкантов, они очень классно играли и пели. Коктейли в баре тоже понравились. Так же есть 3 ресторана: один общий, где все завтракают-обедают-ужинают, и 2 аля-карт, один из которых суши-ресторан. Суши не ели, не большие любители, но видели какое там шеф делал крут огненное шоу-представление. В общем отличный резорт. Не из дешевых, но качество отдыха стоит того. Огромное спасибо отелю и его команде за наш отличный отдых!
За время пребывания вообще не было негативных моментов. Мало дней отдыха взяли - вот это нам и не понравилось. Но это уже наша вина) И еще, как предложение менеджменту отеля - поставьте стенд возле основного ресторана с объявлениями о вечерних и других мероприятиях. Ваше мобильное приложение крутое, но видимо не все в него заходят. Очень больно видеть, как стараются приглашенные артисты, а оценить их мастерство приходят 5-10 человек. Да и выручка бара увеличится)
Eine perfekte kleine Insel, mit sehr freundlichen und zuvorkommenden Personal. Alles war perfekt.
Resort súper cuidado y nuevo. Nos alojamos en una water villa. Habitación enorme e impresionante, con terraza al mar, jacuzzi y escaleras que daban al mar. Desayunos, comidas y cenas muy variados. Con la tarifa que cogimos no incluían los zumos naturales y el minibar. Especial mención a HEIDI , un encanto de chica con la que conversábamos todos los días en las comidas. Hicimos 2 actividades acuáticas ( aunque son un poco caras) pudimos ver delfines , aunque no al tiburón ballena aunque lo intentaron durante 4 horas. El barco era muy grande, con lo cual había menos posibilidad de mareos. Cómo sólo estuvimos 2 días alojadas, se preocuparon de que pudiéramos hacer las actividades aunque tuvieran el cupo lleno. Se puede hacer snorkel por la zona del resort a tu bola y se consiguen ver muchos peces, corales y tiburones pequeños. La isla se recorre de arriba abajo en 15 minutos y está muy limpia y cuidada. Muy recomendable coger el hidroavión en vez del barco , ya que conocimos a huéspedes que lo pasaron muy mal en barco.

We recently returned from a magical stay at Nova Maldives, and it exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was warm, personal, and deeply attentive. 🥐 Breakfast & Dining Experience The breakfast buffet was a standout — beautifully presented, with a wide variety of fresh options to suit every taste. They even provided avocado as per request. Whether you’re into tropical fruits, pastries or hearty hot dishes, there’s something for everyone. Most importantly, the staff were incredibly attentive, always ready to help, and keeping everything spotless. 🛏️ Accommodation We stayed in an overwater villa, and it was absolutely stunning. The villa was spacious, modern, and immaculately maintained. We especially appreciated the twice-a-day cleaning service — our room always felt fresh and cared for. 👨🍳 Service & Staff The service was truly world-class. Every staff member went above and beyond, but we want to give a special mention to: • All the waiters were extremely polite and nice, like Amir – incredibly professional, warm, and attentive • Ashraf – always smiling and made every meal feel special, offered his help many times and offered extra service. They made us feel welcome and remembered the little details, which added such a personal touch. 🤿 Diving Club – A Highlight of the Trip The on-site diving club was phenomenal. We joined the whale shark hunt, and it was an unforgettable experience. Huge thanks to: • Shiyaan – knowledgeable, patient, and deeply passionate about marine life • Jerry – fun, experienced, and made us feel completely safe in the water, even helped me not to sink as it was very difficult to swim while you are pregnant and trying to follow whale shark Their team was professional yet approachable — whether you’re a beginner or experienced diver, you’ll be in excellent hands.
Although the experience was great, there are couple of areas for improvement: Arrival Experience: While the staff was welcoming, the arrival could be more festive. We were greeted at the jetty and taken to reception, but it would have been nice to have a bit more ceremony — perhaps local music, traditional instruments, or local flowers presented to the neck with a cultural touch. It would elevate that “first impression” moment significantly. Evening Entertainment: The evening shows were a bit underwhelming — some lacked energy or creativity. We would love to see more dynamic performances, such as a multi-performer fire show, circus shows , or culturally themed nights. A more immersive or varied program would really add value after sunset.
Everything in Nova was perfect
Everything in Nova was perfect
Amazing staff and resort very good food as well everything was really exceptional and the photographer Taloh is next level unforgettable experience.
What an awesome location! Stayed here for almost two weeks. Perfect service and great food. One remark, the tours were the worsted we ever had. But we heared that a biologist is soon starting again. Hopefully this changed the culture of the boatmen.
Everything exceeded our expectations! The variety of activities, the quality of service, and the cleanliness of the rooms were all outstanding. The food options were diverse and delicious at every meal—breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I would especially like to mention the Moroccan chef and the waiter Ashraf; they were both incredibly helpful and made our stay even more enjoyable. Also, the front desk staff were very welcoming, professional, and always ready to assist with a smile. Highly recommended!
The staff is amazing, super nice and always helpful. It was probably the best service we’ve ever had
Lovely island, good service (cleaning, food, activities).
Awful organisation of transfer process! Instead of stated and promised 25 minutes of direct flight, we spent almost 2 hours in a poorly ventilated seaplane on our way to Male airport (our seaplane flew to another island Nika to pick up 2 more passengers). So, we arrived to airport less than 1 hour before flight departure time and almost missed our flight. I was really upset (nobody informed us about such strange changes, although our flight data were available for organiser of transfer, all the more we were with 3-years-old-baby). Moreover, I’ve sent a complaint letter to hotel and no one has replied to my email. Transfer was not worthy for money! To my mind, hotel should offer monetary compensation for such negligence, or at least apologise, but not ignore!!! Also one more thing confused me. Unused mini bar was added to our total check! When we asked to clarify *** USD, manager just said that an error occurred) Too strange situation for such a serious hotel.
Beautiful location, very nice facilities, amazing food and super friendly people.
Nothing, we loved all of it.
Really Amizing location around blue water and staff so helpfull and food was just Amizing, Neat and clean room
A very unique experience to say the least - first the organising of the Seaplanes was amazing and well co-ordinated Expensive but most certainly worth the money. Greetings from the staff and explanation from the staff was informative and concise. Activities on the island were super easy to book and use (things such as; snorkelling gear, dolphin trips, kayaking, spas/massages, along with lunch or dinner at any of the restaurants) There were 2 very local souvenir shops. The complimentary photoshoot was also a very memorable experience. There is a pool on one side of the island and it is awesome to have (just because sometimes you don't want to jump into seawater) Nothing about the room itself, but the fact this is an island means it has many fishes swimming around - we were ecstatic to see a coral reef shark and to be able to swim near so many different types of colourful and beautiful fishes, honestly an unforgettable experience Our room cleaning was looked after by Easa - a very polite man and thorough with his cleaning. The room was cleaned twice a day and there were a couple times when my wife and I was in the room and he asked us if it was okay to clean now or come back later. No shortcuts, bed was made, floor was swept, towels and other amenities replenished. A+ service!
The type of room we chose meant that our "bathroom" was outdoors. Inside the room was air-coned, but when you had to go to the bathroom (whether it's to go toilet or take a shower) - it was super hot because Maldives is a super hot country. It was an interesting experience, but for those that prefer a little more comfort, it might be better to choose the more expensive type/s of room
We had the most incredible stay at Nova Maldives! The facilities are top-notch, and the staff are beyond friendly – everyone made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. We stayed in a Water Villa with a pool, and it was absolute heaven – waking up to those ocean views was pure bliss. The food was consistently amazing, with great variety and quality across all meals. Honestly, 5 days just wasn’t enough – we could have easily stayed longer. Special shoutout to Kevin – he’s such a gem! Super friendly, full of positive vibes, and really made our stay extra memorable. The Supremacy Band were another highlight – they brought amazing energy to the evenings and were so fun to jam with. Absolute stars! The team really took care of us from beginning to end – even making sure our departure went smoothly and that we didn’t miss our flight. Truly above and beyond. Nova is a slice of paradise – we’re already dreaming about our return!
Honestly, nothing! Everything exceeded our expectations – from the stunning villa to the amazing food and warm hospitality. We only wish we could’ve stayed longer!
It’s a truly magical place to unwind and find peace. The staff is attentive, kind, and always ready to help — incredibly friendly too. The facilities are modern, spotless, and very comfortable. The views and the beach are absolutely stunning. The apartment, with its sea views, private jacuzzi, and direct staircase access to the ocean, was simply unbeatable. I truly hope to return someday.

Clean rooms, friendly and attentive staff.
Upsell was extreme. Exclusions within an all-inclusive or full board package are predatory Everything including renting of any equipment (i.e. a snorkeling mask)?comes with a fixed 10% service charge. The hotel then charges you tax on the service charge as well.
Beautiful nature, relaxing, super service. Its really a little ‘paradise’. Only downside (but expected) is that some of the watersport or massages for example are quite $$$, but besides that beautiful.
Wonderful resort, very helpful and kind staff. Good variety and quality of food at Soul Kitchen. Great local scuba diving. House reef not great, but okay if you go outside the erosion barriers.
Only negative of the trip was Mizu restaurant. The teppanyaki cooked food was very poor, drenched in oil and soy sauce. Not at all like real teppanyaki cooking.
I liked everything about the island, knowing that it was my second trip at nova. Staff are really amazing and friendly. Every single person on that island are really doing a great job. Food was really delecious and good variety,
Pool: need to be more cold, water was really very hot. Construction: there were some construction on the island for2 following days.
Amazing Hotel! We went there for our Honeymoon and it was incredible experience. Highly recommended!
チェックイン時に英語がわからない私達に嫌な顔1つせず翻訳を使って説明してくれました。到着日は強風と雨で天候が悪くレセプションである程度説明してもらいすぐに部屋に案内してもらいました。 お部屋は新目のリゾートなので清潔感はありました。電気関係も海外で使えるものだったたら変換なしで大丈夫というのが良かった。 ビーチ前のお部屋だったので数歩で海へ行けるのも良かった😄 ダイビング目的ではあったが、NOVAのハウスリーフにパウダーブルーの群れが見れるのを知っていたので、その写真が撮りたくダイビングサービスのスタッフに何回か翻訳を使用して色々聞いてようやくどこにいるかはわからないけど午前中が良いかもと教えてもらい4時間シュノーケルをして撮影できた。ダイビングスタッフさんありがとう😊 Soul kitchenの食事は総合的に私達の好みに合ってました。ちょっとスパイシーすぎるのもあったり、スープは体に良いなという味が多かったかな?でも特にパン系、デザート系は美味しかったです。 全体的に一回も嫌だなと思ったことはなかったので大満足です😄

One excursion not organized as advertised
House reef is amazing. Food is great. Staff is friendly. The room is big and the bed is very comfortable.Overall, we were very happy with our stay! Thanks Nova.
Food is great but would be even better if it has more variety. Some water activities can be a bit pricey but Nova also have complimentary on-island activities which is great.
one of the worst experiences. property is very bad.
nothing to like.
