The property doesn't care for the needs of leisure vacationers. It operates like a guesthouse for persons on a ocean diving trip.

Great Island.
The hotel and facilities are excellent. I stayed for 3 weeks. Its a very short walk to the beach, either 2 minutes to the East beach or 3 minutes to the West beach. The island with its long sandy beach and blue lagoon is just beaitiful. I primarally was there for diving which is arranged by the onsite hotel dive team. Diving was great with Mantas and my first time ever in over 25 years of diving to see a whale shark during a dive, seen plenty snorkelling but never whilst diving until I went to Dhigurah island. Some areas to improve upon is dinning really. Breakfast is okay though somewhat limited with the same stuff every day and when you're there for 3 weeks! It gets a bit boring. Also dinner selection is not great, plus expensive! For instance their curry dish consisted of 4 or 5 types of curry, great you'd think but actually they are all the same cocunut curry sauce, just with a different protien!! I ate at other places mostly. Overall its a lovely hotel and I would stay there again and also recommend it.

Really amazing stay,staff were all really nice and made sure we had a comfortable stay. I liked that they used local staff and that it's locally owned as well. Reehan organised a trip to a sandbank for the day which was also beautiful.

Amazing Hospitality and Comfort
It was our first trip to Maldives and we booked 2 rooms at The White Sand Dhigurah Hotel. If I could rate them on a scale from 1 to 10 I would give them 20!! Amazing service and warm wonderful people!! The rooms were super clean and comfortable! The food (we got full board) was delicious! They were so nice to accommodate our vegan diet and it was way beyond what we were expecting! The whole time we spent there we felt so well taken care of: excursions and transportation were arranged (scuba, snorkeling) promptly, food was delicious, staff was so kind and respectful! We felt so sad to leave at the end and we're going to be coming back for sure! If you're looking into booking this hotel - do it! You won't regret it! Thank you so much for everything White Sand Dhigurah! You made our vacation unforgettable <3 Tatiana and Cody Lazenby

Had a short, but pleasant stay at this hotel. The staff is amazing and would do everything possible to make you feel comfortable. The hotel was very clean and the room was nice. It is not located on the beach, but it takes about few meters to walk there, so this is not an issue. The food at their restaurant was really tasty and also at a reasonable price, compared with other hotels and restaurants. They offer a variety of tours and their whale shark tour is highly recommended. The staff took extra care of the people that weren't very good swimmers and also gave them the opportunity to see the sharks by accompanying them in the water. Would recommend this place.
