Faima Fishing Lodge at Daravandhoo

“Nice place for a simple short stay”

The staff were friendly and helpful, offering airport pick‑up and harbor drop‑off, and the private yard area was lovely for resting; coffee, tea, and hot water were available 24/7 and the place was quiet. However, rooms lack exterior‑facing windows, I spotted a small cockroach in the shower, and although credit cards are accepted on site they charge a 4 % fee, though they also accepted USD and had change.

“Good place to stay”

The place sits in a great spot, the staff and owner are friendly, and the room was clean for a reasonable price. The complimentary water had a strong taste, so I’d rather bring my own bottled water.

We were greeted at the pier, driven to the hotel in a car, helped with our luggage, and placed politely. They didn’t refuse our request to tidy the room. Every evening’s dinner was a delight – fresh meat and fish, well‑made sides, salads, and fruit. No bugs in the room, and no mosquito bites in the courtyard.

Huge thanks to Hameed, who took great care of us. I highly recommend the dinners – always absolutely delicious homemade food. Hameed was eager to arrange everything we asked for, from diving and transfers to another island to booking flights. The accommodation had everything we needed, and we missed nothing. Clean, beautiful, and well‑maintained throughout our stay. Once again, a huge thank you to Hameed and his wonderful staff!

“Wonderful place to stay close to everything”

Lovely staff, the owner Hameed is very helpful. Super, super clean and a great location. I love that filtered water is available - cuts down on the use of plastic bottles of water. Just be aware that some rooms do not have an external window
