MAAYAFUSHI ISLAND RESORT

Simplicity and comfort are the key words. The 74 bungalows, all with open-air bathroom and sea view, are equipped with air conditioning. The interiors of the bungalows on stilts are more attractive than those of the beach bungalows. The restaurant is very canteen-like, but guests generally seem satisfied with the well-stocked buffets. The atmosphere on the island is modest and friendly. Ninety percent of the clientele are Italian diving enthusiasts who are clearly willing to sacrifice a little comfort to enjoy the underwater life.
