Coco Palm Bodu Hithi

We (me and my wife) have spent one week in a escape water villa for vacation. Our villa on the water was great with a beautifull view on the ocean. You can sweam (and snork with the hotel equipment) with a lot of fish directly from your deck. (magnificient !! ) The bad points are : - the food which is not at the level of a 5 star hotel. - the management who walk from you without a smile or a hello. (for the price we have paid, they can do an effort)

Recently return from Coco Palm Bodi Huthi. The resort is outstanding. We stayed in a beach villa which was amazing. I have been to several resorts in Maldives and this has to be one of the best. My only complaint would be the price of meals and drinks in resort. Whilst I appreciate the fact that its 5* I think the price were seriously over inflated. £9.00 for cheese and biscuit (and I mean biscuit!!!) Think it great, but Evason resorts are better. D & N

Wonderful resort - all staff extremely friendly. Nice little touches - cold flannels and cocktails on arrival. Champagne and fruit in room. Villa extremely luxurious with huge 'teacup' bath and private pool big enough to swim in at the back. Twice daily room service. Restaurants both excellent food and service. Spa service and treatments excellent. Things to look out for - huge bats flying through the trees. herons and cute hermit crabs. Tip - some of the sand is quite stony so take some waterproof shoes for in the sea. Otherwise just... more

beautiful island, limited water sports though, can see alot of marine life, fishes, sharks, eagle ray, lovely water villas. good food. resort is pretty new, so they are still improving on the amenities. nice infinity pool. really beautiful. crabs crawling on the beach at night. very windy. dvd and large lcd tv in room. bath is fantastic. very clean. lovely, great. snorkel equipment is foc.

Strengths: - incredibly stylish rooms - best we have ever seen - even compared to lots of places in MiddleEast, such as the Chedi in Oman or the Evason in Thailand or the Bora Bora in Polynesia) - good house reef for the snorkellers & divers - no annoying bugs (at least in the water villa we had) - hasslefree and fast speed boat transfer to airport - professional, well equipped dive center - magnifically located spa and fitness center Weaknesses (in fact rather 'weaker points' compared to other 5 star... more

I should start off by saying I had mixed feelings about writing a review: I didn’t want people to find out about this gem, but that would be unfair since I always plan our trips using other’s people experience on this website, so here it goes: We stayed at Bodu Hithi for a week last May and could not find one single thing to complain about. We wanted to go to a 5 star hotel but didn’t want to spend a ridiculous amount of money since this was just a week getaway for us. Being already low season, the hotel was only half-full, which... more

Firstly, take a look at my video in my profile and that should give you an idea of a day in the week of my life chilling in one of the best locations and resorts I've ever stayed in (May 18 to 27) and I've stayed in some pretty fabulous places! I'd never been to the Maldives before, but always wanted to go. Ideally, I thought that I'd visit barefoot and arm-in-arm with the love of my life and have a truly memorable experience. Since that love my life still, shall we say, eludes me - I thought it prudent (particularly in post-tsunami... more

Bodhu Hithi is what maldives is at its best and worst. FIrst lets start with the good point: The rooms. Whatever the category the rooms are just incredible. I advise either the island villa or directly the escape water villa. The water villa is expensive and not worth it compared to the escape water villa. The sea is amazing and nice corals. The staff is very helpful and very nice. So what is bad? The price! The price of the room looks cheap compared to other resort but everything else is incredibly expensive. Even prices... more

We stayed at Bodu Hithi for 11 nights at the end of February 2007. The Trip from Male on Speedboat was fast and we arrived at the island some 40 minutes later, we were met at the end of the boardwalk by our Butler who then escorted us to our Escape Water Villa. The Villa was nicely decorated to a good standard using dark wood but had the strangest bath and hand basins made of a plywood material which I feel will not last the test of time as the Bath had already a dark permanent water stain. Outside on the deck it is wonderful with a decent... more

We stayed at the Coco Palm Bodu Hithi from Jan 24-28. Overall, our stay was exceptional. The resort was not 100% operational, and there was still some construction going on, but one can choose to make this the highlight of their stay or instead enjoy all the wonderful things this resort has to offer and have an exceptional experience. We chose to do the latter. Let me first highlight what was not completed: beach villas on the spa side of the island, escape residences and wine bar. Everything else was completed. The highlight of... more
