Book Crown & Champa Resorts Maldives Mahibadhoo accommodation from AU$92

The whole resort was just a pleasure to stay at. It was spotless and the customer service was amazing. Have to say that Chandana, Asela, Jesica, Ann, Naif, Saddam and Saleem, were exceptional in their care and Vipdla looked after us well in the restaurant. The house reef was lovely and the fish were amazing to watch and swim with. The rooms were lovely and the care for the Island was great to see, the attention to detail to make the stay perfect made the whole break so relaxing, exactly as you imagine it to be.

Great place. Many activities for families. Clean room and very attentive staff

Clean room, staff was great.

The only reason I did not give an overall excellent for this property is the food. Breakfast and lunch were excellent but sometimes the dinners were less than great. There was no choice only what was cooked on the night. Also it could be because as a westerner I am used to only the best boneless cuts of meat, but on occasion the meat was inedible due to bones and gristle. A shame because the flavours were very good and the staff were excellent. For future reference a description of the food would be useful. If I was to return to this venue I would probably only eat vegetarian. The island itself was quite small (not a criticism) and easy to walk around, the people were quite friendly. Overall I would say this property fit in the backpackers / divers niche. As I was not looking for the usual Maldives experience this was an advantage for me. The only issue as far as the accommodation was concerned is that my bed linens did not appear to be changed the whole 2 weeks I was there, but I could be mistaken if the sheets were washed then put back on the same day. The private beach at the property was wonderful and very private - I had it all to myself for my whole visit. Didn’t worry me that I had to be covered from neck to knee for religious reasons but would not recommend swimming in your beach cover up. The public beach at the other end of the island (10 / 15 minutes walk) did not look all that well kept so I only went for a look once and then stayed on my private beach.
