This was our 4th Maldives island and before I start my review, here is a quick overview of how well Fiha did in terms of our expectations based on our previous trips to other Maldives islands: EXPECTATION Shared table in restaurant REALITY Had own table throughout.... more

After reading several unpleasant reviews about this resort we were a little nervous about taking our 2 week honeymoon here. What a pleasant surprise when we arrived! We booked with Eclipse (the cheaper online sister company of First Choice) and paid extra for additional... more

Fihalhohi Island is very pretty with a good barrier reef, and lots of tropical fishes. Unfortunately the atmosphere wasn't as good as we thought. The non-motorised sport were not included in the package. The comfort rooms weren't quite so comfortable (a lot of the rooms... more

It all started with a chance sighting of a special offer, in First Choice holiday shop window, of a discounted holiday to the Maldives. Having visited there before, we went in and made enquiries and found it was 2 weeks all inclusive to Club Faru. I tried to find any... more

The Fihalhohi resort is amazing. It is better than the book suggests. On arriving at Male airport, our speedboat was waiting which took about an hour to reach the island. On arrival, it was like something out of a dream, sea the colour of swimming pools and the sand was... more

fantastic
We went to the island on the 8th of Jan and found the place to be pure paradise. We kept pinching ourselves that we had found such a bargain, its like being on a bounty wrapper! Here are some tips... *Book a water bungalow, it is definately worth the $90 per night and you wont regret it. *take water shoes and snorkel gear as ist expensive on the island and the coral is a killer *take books etc to entertain you, of course there are no TV's *Prepare yourself for the 60 minute boat transfer across rough water!<br... more
good 1st timer island!
this was the 3rd visit to the maldives for my husband and I. the 1st visit we went to Fun Island, and the second to Kuredu. I think for any one who is new to the maldives this island will be just perfect, and there is very little wrong with it, but to compair it to Kuredu for example, it isnt quite so picture-esq, for example you dont have the long rolling stretches of white beach here at this resort, just a section which everyone flees to. the accomodation is good, you get what you pay for, it is a budget resort, again compaired to the last... more
Loved the place - fantastic
This is a great place and although rated 3* plus its brilliant value for money. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and always remember you. It takes just 10 minutes to walk around the island, there are many many different kinds of fish to see even just paddling! There are also turtles and lots of heron! The sunset fishing is really good too. It really does look how it is on the TV - crystal blue/green water, gorgeous! The reception staff love English football too and even let us watch Liverpool matches in the Heron Hall! The... more
Beyond Paradise......
Like the previous review my partner and I arrived at Fihalhohi on 6th September 2006...no doubt we were also on the same speed boat...what an experience!!!! Dispite the miserable weather and choppy boat ride my partner and I were amazed when we saw the island, absolute paradise. We were greeted at the jetty (pier still in tact at this stage!) by the friendly staff and were offered cool towels which we were very grateful for, the Maldives are so humid. After a light snack we were shown to our room. We had booked a comfort room... more
Excellent value for money
We stayed on Fiha 13th to 27th Dec. Although the weather was cloudy and showery the temperature ensures you don't have to stay indoors. The rooms are clean and tidy and quite spacious, we shared with our 13 year old son and still had enough room to not be tripping over each other. We were in a comfort room although the classic rooms didn't seem much smaller. The food on a whole is excellent although on occassion it can seem a bit repetitive, saying that though we never went hungry. The Christmas eve gala dinner was outstanding and it... more
Amazing
Stayed at Fihalhohi in September 06. Ok so I'm a little late writing a review but I just totally forgot. I went to fihalhohi with my parents, last year I stayed at Biyadhoo with my partner (he was unfortunatley not able to come away this year) and have to say Fihalhohi was much better. We arrived on (i think) 6th september. I had read before coming away that the weather wasnt great so was a bit apprehensive about that.... and had good cause to be! it rained pretty much non stop (or so it felt) for the first 6 days. Im just glad we were... more
Paradise-worth every penny
We have been back just over 2 weeks now from our first visit to the Maldives and for our first time, we were not disappointed one little bit. Having booked with First Choice, we found the service and flight very good, plane journey was very comfy and rep, Zita very helpful. The transfer to Fiha took just under an hour by speedboat, which i was dreading, having had previous bad experiences on boats but there was nothing to worry about. Seeing all the lagoons and islands was breath-taking. On arrival to Fiha, we were shown to our room. We... more
Lovely island and reef but not a secluded paradise!
Hotel: We was happily surprised for the hotel layout. It is a very small island but smartly distributed. We went for our honeymoon and it was disappointing that is not a quiet place, its so over crowded! Also the hotel is very child friendly, so it is not the typical romantic hideaway, it is full of families and you are always surrounded by loads of people!!, I think that this is important to know depending the kind of holiday you are looking for! You have internet access, a dive centre, a shop (very overpriced, so if you like munchies I... more
Beautiful island but too busy to be special
Recently returned from a 2 week holiday on Fihalhohi. Our holiday was great and the island is generally beautiful, but we both felt that there are too many guest rooms on the island. I believe there are currently approx 150 available rooms, which I think is 50 or so more than were available a few years ago. The problem with having so many fellow holidaymakers around is that you do not have that `special` feeling. Meal times are very busy (unless you have dinner on the beach - recommended), it is almost impossible to find a secluded... more
Paradise Found
With out a doubt the best holiday i have ever taken. A three star holiday that was better than some of the five star holiday i have been on. Was at Fihalhohi for 21 nights and every day was great, the starf were some of the best i have ever encounted, always polite, helpfull and pleased to see you. The island is lovley, layed out very well and extremely well maintained. The house reef was out of this world great for every one from people who have never even snorkeled to experienced scuba divers. If you can get a water... more
