Overview

Athuruga's sister island in South Ari Atoll, with sandbank suites, jacuzzi water villas and three bars, one of them over the water.

Diamonds Thudufushi is the sister of Diamonds Athuruga, a short way across South Ari Atoll and run by the same Planhotel group. It's a barefoot island reached by seaplane, with a house reef, a sandbank and an all-inclusive plan at its heart.

Rooms start with Beach Villas (45 m²) and run to Junior Suites, Sandbank Junior Suites on a secluded sandbank and Beach Suites (70 m² each), then Water Villas and seven Jacuzzi Water Villas (150 m²); two-bedroom water villas with a plunge pool complete the range.

Maakana is the buffet; the overwater Aqua restaurant, Farivalhu's Maldivian dishes and Kakuni's seafood grill add variety. Three bars include Aqua over the water and Boli on the beach, and there's Serena Spa, an IDive PADI centre and a coral conservation programme.

Good to know

It's quiet and mid-sized with no kids' club. Children under eight can stay in the water villas only with a signed parental disclaimer.
