NH Collection Havodda is on Havodda in Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll, close to the equator in the far south, reached by a 55-minute domestic flight to Kaadedhdhoo and a 15-minute speedboat. Its 120 villas are split evenly between the beach and the water, with a large choice of types, and it suits couples and families who want a remote atoll, with a kids' club, a dive centre, water sports, a spa and a sports court. Stays are on breakfast or all inclusive.
On the beach, the Beach Villas (95 m²) face the sunrise or the sunset, with a bathtub and a rain shower, and the Beach Pool Villas (121 m²) add a plunge pool, either facing the horizon or in a private courtyard. Over the water, the Overwater Villas (77 m²) have an open-air sunken tub, indoor and outdoor showers and steps into the lagoon, and the Over Water Pool Suites (153 m²) add a separate living room, a pool and a hammock. Newly renovated Deluxe Overwater Villas open in January 2027.
REEF is the main restaurant, an open-air pavilion on the beach with live cooking stalls from breakfast to dinner. SURF is the island-style steakhouse, grilling imported cuts and the neighbouring island's catch over charcoal on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and Pizza Kaage serves wood-fired pizza by the pool, with children welcome to help the chef. Thari is the pool bar, with afternoon tea, and Iru is a pop-up beach bar for sunset drinks and canapés.
Gut zu wissenThis profile comes from travel agencies, because the resort's own website couldn't be checked. It's remote, a domestic flight and a speedboat from Malé; only one agency states the star rating, and the price is only maldives.com's 'starting from' range, so treat it as a rough guide.
