"This is a very efficiently run hotel with lovely staff. Everything from arranging our speedboats, transfers to and from the dock to housekeeping to checkout was perfectly organized. The bed was comfy and the room had everything we needed. "
Dive and Sleep - All Inclusive Diving Guesthouse - 3 Dives per day
10/10 Excellent
"We stayed at Dive and Sleep for the first half (5 nights) of our honeymoon in the Maldives and it was more than we could have hoped for.
Our speedboat transfer was booked for us and we were collected from the harbour.
Dhidhdhoo (pronounced di-do) is a small local island and Dive and Sleep is one of only a few hotels. The location is perfect and we could see the sea from our room's outside seating area.
We arrived late afternoon, so had a few hours to settle in before dinner. The food was amazing and we were often served beautifully seasoned fresh fish that had been caught off the dive boat earlier that day. Drinking water (hot/cold) was available in the communal dining area, as well as a fridge with cans of coke/fanta/sprite. The room was clean and had everything we needed.
My husband is an experienced diver, so was able to get out for his first two dives the next morning. I've never dived before, so was eased in more gently. After doing some theory at the dive centre, and a practice dive off the beach, I was able to go out on the boat with the other guests in the afternoon. Midhoo is a fantastic teacher and I wouldn't have wanted to complete my PADI open water course with anyone else.
The local dive sites are also some of the best my husband has seen.
All of the staff at Dive and Sleep were very welcoming and we felt well looked after. We enjoyed our stay so much that we were planning our next trip before we left. "
If you're looking for something a little more offbeat than the traditional hotel experience, a bed and breakfast could be the perfect alternative for your getaway.
