    My stay was wonderful! The room was perfect, cleaned every day with fresh towels and a complimentary bottle of water provided daily. The staff were extremely helpful even before my arrival, assisting me with the ferry to the island and arranging all my activities. The Maldivian breakfast was both delicious and generous. Thank you so much for the warm welcome – you truly made my stay very comfortable!

    The owner recommended 2 restaurants on the island to eat at because these were the 2 local restaurants that aren't attached to a resort.. They had the exact same menu, because it turns out that these are both his restaurants. To be honest, they were both delicious and we would have gone there anyways to support him because we really liked the family, but he should have just told us they are his restaurants so if you want to support me please try my restaurants, and we would have gone there anyways, but honesty is always the best policy!

    We loved the Maldivian breakfast and the staff were all lovely. And the location was perfect.

    Lovely staff who were very attentive and informative about the island. They helped us book trips and took us to and from the port when needed. Beautiful place, not far from the beach and clean rooms with hot shower and working AC! Highly recommend to book whale shark trip with the team that hotel recommend 😊 10/10 experience!

    Photos don’t do this stay justice! Seconds away from the bikini beach and an amazing staff! Everyone was extremely helpful and made sure we were comfortable the entire time. They arranged manta snorkeling and whale shark excursions for us which were amazing despite not finding a whale shark the first day. The rooms and bed were comfortable and the included breakfast was great!

    Expensive excursions add up, but cheaper than those at resorts and likely comparable with excursions at other lodgings. No dedicated toilet paper holder—very minor.

    Close access to the beach. Friendly staff. Variety in breakfast with a choice between continental and Maldivian style. Generally responsive in messages via WhatsApp. The staff owns a boat that provides excursions for the lodging and other lodgings—they use drone technology to better find whale sharks and manta rays.

    The only recommendation would be to have a door mat to prevent bringing sand inside the rooms.

    A great place to stay during our time in Dhigurah. Located almost as close as you can stay to the bikini beach (1 minute walk away) and sand bar (about 30 minute walk). There are restaurants, souvenir shops and local convenience stores within walking distance. Bicycles were available for hire, however we didn’t require these. Our speedboat return transfer was organised by the host for 60USD per person each way and we were picked up from the harbour on arrival. The rooms were cleaned daily and very clean on arrival with a very comfortable bed and clean and comfortable linen. Both a beach towel and bath towel was provided. Wifi, A/C and facilities in the room worked well. Complimentary Maldivian breakfast was very good. The surrounding gardens were beautiful too. We were able to pay for our room, transfers and excursions via card. All the staff were friendly and very responsive via WhatsApp and at the reception area and they were able to arrange manta ray (60USD pp) and whale shark excursions (80USD pp) for us on arrival. We felt like we were valued guests at this accomodation and were sad to leave this beautiful island and Beach Lily.

    We had an amazing time at Lily Beach. It is located on a stunning island where locals also live. Since we weren’t interested in a touristy resort, we chose Dhigurah. Our host, Mohammed, was our go-to person for everything. He organized spontaneous tours to see whale sharks and manta rays, gave us snorkeling tips, shared local recommendations, and talked about life on the island. The guesthouse had only recently opened, so everyone went out of their way to make sure my pregnant wife and I felt comfortable. When my wife got a severe sunburn, Mohammed even picked a fresh aloe vera plant from the garden for her. The other day he shared his coconut with us. Shortly before our departure, there was a fantastic BBQ with fish, meat, rice, and plenty of delicious fruit. If Mohammed caught an octopus during an excursion, it was freshly prepared and shared with the guests that very evening. The Wi-Fi worked flawlessly. Special thanks also go to the man who prepared the delicious Maldivian breakfast for us every morning and made sure our rooms were always fresh and clean. He was the heart and soul of the house. The speedboat ride from Malé to Dhigurah was organized seamlessly via WhatsApp. For both the arrival and departure, we were picked up and didn’t have to worry about anything. This is what a vacation should be like. We can 100% recommend this accommodation!

    Incredible Experience on Digurah Island at Beach Lily – A Truly Unforgettable Stay!

    We were initially disappointed that there was no place serving fresh fish or seafood on the island, but Mohammed took us on a sunset fishing trip, and after the catch, they prepared the fish for us. It was a unique and memorable experience! At the time of our stay, the hotel only served breakfast, but we were informed that the kitchen would soon be open for full-day service, which will make the experience even more convenient.

    We recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful new hotel, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the unforgettable experience we had. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with such warmth and hospitality, especially by Mohammed, who made our stay truly special. Mohammed went above and beyond to take care of us, treating us like family. He spent so much time with us, sharing his knowledge about the local culture and life on Digurah Island. He organized various excursions and activities for us, always making sure we had everything we needed. His friendliness, and efficiency in solving any requests made us feel at ease and truly welcomed. As divers, we were thrilled to know that the hotel arranged a private diving excursion just for us. It’s important to note that, due to island regulations, you can only dive with the hotel you’re staying at. Despite that, we had an amazing experience and saw some incredible underwater life—manta rays, eagle rays, a whale shark, sharks, and more. We were told that for even better diving, it’s ideal to visit after December 10th when the underwater life becomes even more active, though we had no complaints with the vibrant marine life we encountered during our stay in late November 2024. The location of the house is fantastic—just a short walk to the beautiful bikini beach, which made it easy to enjoy the stunning surroundings without the long walks in the hot sun. The hotel offers an amazing local breakfast that we enjoyed each morning. The property is exceptionally clean, with beautiful flora surrounding the rooms, which were serviced daily. The AC and Wi-Fi worked perfectly, making it a very comfortable stay. The hotel arranged our transfer from the airport via speedboat, which was very smooth and comfortable. It cost 60 USD per person one way. Lastly, we can’t say enough about the care and attention we received from both Mohammed and his brother Ahmed. They were always smiling, helpful, and ready to assist. Thanks!

    The accommodation is very new, room was awesome but the best is the staff. These guys really go a huge extra mile for their guests, not just to earn money, but out of genuine, honest hospitality. These places are rare and hard to find nowadays. They want you to feel welcomed, organize whatever tours you like to do, transport, everything, always with a smile and ready for a joke. We stayed with Ahmed and Mohamed for 6 nights, but prolonged for extra 9, because it was so amazing. definitly coming back!

    Excellent location, close to the beach but quiet during the night. Owners and personnel were welcoming, answered all of our questions and created truly amazing experience for us during planned trips - we swam with whale shark, mantas and even saw dolphins. Our room was cleaned every day. Be prepared - island is still developing and nearby us were sites under construction but it didn’t bother our stay as most of the time we spent at the tranquil beach or on the snorkeling trips.

    Our holiday in the Maldives was absolutely perfect thanks to this accommodation! From the first moment we arrived we felt so welcome. The host and his team was incredibly kind, helpful and always had a gracious attitude towards us, which made our holiday an even more memorable experience. The rooms were clean and the bikini beach was just few steps away, the white sand and turquoise water amazed us every day. But what really made our stay special was the care the entire team gave us. They were always available to help us with trip arrangements, speedboats or to advise us on the best places on the island. Their warm attitude and effort to make sure we are enjoying our holiday and feeling comfortable has never stoped to amaze us.

    There wasn't much of a view from the bedroom; it just looked into the room opposite's window, so you couldn't really have the curtains open without anyone being able to look in.

    The included breakfast was delicious and a large portion, with fresh fruit such as pineapple or watermelon. The staff were lovely and extremely helpful with advice on snorkel and diving tours.
