Review of the Anantara Dhigu in the Maldives.
The Anantara Dhigu is a short 30-minute boat ride from Malé. The resort is located in a giant lagoon with two other resorts. Anantara Veli and Naladhu. The Anantara Veli is considered the honeymoon island. Children are not allowed on this island except for dinner. Guests from Anantara Dhigu are welcome to use the facilities on Veli, enjoy the restaurants and vice versa. Naladhu is the private residence island and guests from Anantara Dhigu and Veli are not allowed over there, however, guests from Naladhu are welcome at Anantara Dhigu and Veli. To get around to each island, they have complimentary pontoon boats that will take you there.
Overall, the Anantara Dhigu was an amazing resort. That lagoon is just remarkable and the rooms are beautiful. I was pleasantly surprised by the food and service provided. I would highly recommend the Anantara Dhigu to anyone planning on visiting the Maldives.

1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge is THE place to stay in Brooklyn. It's right at the base of the Brooklyn bridge so while staying there you get that iconic Manhatten view. The hotel's theme is sustainable luxury. They reduce the waste from bathroom toiletries and also waste from water bottles by installing a designated filtered water station. That, I've never seen before and I want this is my house! The...

The Grand Hotel Dei Dogi in Venice is part of the Autograph Collection. It’s far from the touristy crowds by the San Marco square but if you’d like to go there during your stay they do have a shuttle boat that runs often to take you there or it’s about a 24-minute walk. There’s still a lot of great restaurants and bars nearby. There’s also one of the best coffee shops in Venice maybe even the w...

Rooms are falsely advertised Management acknowledged the issue but refused to do anything about it, do not Book the Ocean Front Studio Room not worth the money.
@highstandardVactions what's the best maui hotel that you've stayed at.
😊
Hi you kept mentioning the wind and Choppy water,, what month did u end up going ??
And now it is closed. They are turning it into a Beaches instead.
If you are being ripped off for a massage at $30 , why would you tip?
Except if you want to go into Siena and don't have a car is 125 Euro each way.
I’ve been trying to decide between these two hotels and I am still undecided lol. I do not like the white umbrellas at the bucuti and I wish they would change that, the Palapas like they have at Manchebo give a cozier more Caribbean feel. I do like the thoughts of adults only and the updated at bucuti but I like the thoughts of the tropical feel at Manchebo so I’m still trying to decide
The beach villa Is the water very shallow
It depends on the tide. Sometimes it was only knee deep and other times it was waist deep.
I have stayed at the bucuti twice now and will not stay anywhere else
Rent snorkeling equipment at the Maui Dive shop or Boss Frog's. Much cheaper.
EVERYTHING IS EXPENSIVE NOW; FOREVER MORE! The "BAR" has been raised once again and this is now the new normal unfortunately!!!

I love a brutally honest review
We’re you allowed to bring your own beverages to the beach in a cooler?
I don’t think anyone checks. I’m pretty sure you could.
@@andreakevin-ur6od I have seen other Tripadvisor reviews where they mentioned having a cooler in the room. But, those reviews were several years old. I just wasn't sure if it was still allowed? I'll do it anyway. :)
Yes they even provided a small cooler in the room
@@jessicarogalski5929 I did find that out on my visit last year. Great place!
I’m so worried about the stingrays, sharks and trigger fish 💀what if I get too close by accident?
You won’t. They’re more afraid of you then you are of them. If you see one in the water. They’ll swim away from you. I remember chasing a shark and a sting Ray and I couldn’t get close enough. They kept swimming away from me.
Clear, concise, and straight to the point; great review!!! But....Sandals Emerald Bay is ok if "you're on a budget" ???? Sorry sweetie, but most people (like myself) cannot even afford a Sandals resort. Not everyone makes 6 -7 figures a year.....especially with "Biden Inflation" going on right now.
U stii alive? :(
So I did see this review before we went and wasn't sure about the resort. However, I HAD A BLAST! The sunset was the most beautiful I had ever seen. Most of the review is right. But go with a open mind post covid. I went in mid September and didn't see the kids.
Still 5 stars in our book ! Please do not believe what she says here coz really not the case. Lets be fair :) We been going here since they first built it and if you want everything for free then go to an all inclusive vacation place :).. You just need to do proper research on when to go so it is not crowded and what you can avail of etc. anywhere you go worldwide they nickel dime you but here in Maui there are amenities for free and all you have to do is ask and they staff will always hook you up ! Alot of folks leave gear behind and the staff keeps them for other guests to enjoy :).. Why ask for towels when you can do laundry in your villa ? Detergent is free just ask for it. We kept our beach gear and re use it yearly and never rent or borrow etc. we cook our own food and bbq onsite for free and just go to the grocery store for what we need at Foodland or Safeway nearby. We eat out on good places too and pig out on where the locals go. You obviously went to the tourist areas and yes it is expensive because everything is shipped in to the island. Ask the bell hop team coz they know where good cheap food is !! LOL ! I suggest you really plan where you go and do research so avoid bad experiences but doing a bad review is not fair :( In your situation, I think you have to stick to the all inclusive vacation resorts like the riu in Cancun so you do not spend any money at all on your stay. Aloha and mahalo :)
Hi ! Will you be back someday? Loved your channel.
So nice 👌..why have you stopped making new 📹 🎥 video for last 2 years
She’s too picky it sounds like she needs to be home 😂😂😂😂😂
This woman’s face, 5 ⭐️’s
Thx for the info 👍🏾
Wow!
Thank you! I would love to know that place!
WOW ! We have been going here for over 17 years. You complain a lot. We had so much fun there and just so you know, all resorts charge extras. The kitchen is a full kitchen not a kitchenette. Towels are free as well. Not sure why you were charged so many fees etc. Please do not be discourage.
Do you have access to the Westin resort and spa down the road?
Once you have dined here you will never go anywhere else.
You say there was no available lounge chairs at the beach and pool …I’m not definitely going to this place and I’m not getting up early on my vacation to go on a reserve list for a lounge chair..
Run down resort
What hotel had the musty bed? So I know which one not to got to!
The resort is more suited for Timeshare owners
One needs to keep in mind that these are time shares, not hotels, therefore they only clean the room and bring fresh linens once a week.
I went in July it was super crowded🤔 well no shit it was crowded with kids and people everywhere. JULY and August the busiest time to go, Oya December too. So, 1 less star for that is just downright lame. And that is why I always go in May or early June.
I'm so happy that the company is paying for everything flight room nd my uber out there lol and the Hawaii safe travel website will be terminated late march
I don't understand some of your reviews...you give 4.5 stars for food but don't explain why the .5 star reduction. I'm not sure why you're going to a nice resort and not expecting children to be there or to pay money for extras? Maybe their pricing structure is different? A la cart style?
Weddingmoon 2014, had a magical stay. Rented a car and drove to several secluded spots all up and down the island. Married on the beach in Emerald Bay. Fair pricing considering it’s all inclusive. Highly recommend.

Great review. Most of Maui (and Hawaii in general) is about "nickel and diming" the guests. A condo is a must with BBQ grill access so you can make your own meals. Costco is always our first stop when we land. We buy steaks, potatoes, vodka, mixers, lunch meat, etc. Also, BYOB unless you're ok with $12 (plus tip) drinks made with bottom shelf spirits. We just got back from Maui last week and made the mistake of staying at the Hyatt (hotel, not condo). Big mistake. $800 per night and $20 previously frozen cheeseburgers. Want fries? Add $5. Big rip-off. Never again. Bottom line, go to Hawaii for the beautiful surroundings, not the food. You may find good restaurants, but they come at a heavy price. OK for a special occasion, but that's it. Also, always expect crowds. It is Hawaii and it's beautiful.
You immediately lost me when you said Manchebo allows kids.
☺
Thinking about having my elopement there! Great video!!
Very good review, another reason to consider Anantara on upcoming vacations.
Which Sandals resort do you think is the best?
You explained everything perfectly. I'm working there and I can see that you really did good job.
Assuming this isn't the best resort in Ka'anapali with villas, what would be better?
Where did u rent a car and how much was it?
Car rental on Premises
That’s where I also stayed when I was in Sydney. It’s an awesome hotel. Great video until the end when you started promoting the travel club.
Why would anyone go to Exumas and stay somewhere like this?
