A comfortable stay where we enjoyed interacting with all the Maldivian staff working in this hotel.. Staff was absolutely great. Let us start with Farigh, the owner. We were supposed to transfer to Fuvahmulah by ferry on 1 March. Unfortunately, the ferry was canceled, and we were advised 4 days before the journey. Farigh went out of his way and successfully helped us find alternate arrangements to reach our destination. Then, Haam, the hotel manager, who is full of enthusiasm and made sure our stay at Ataraxis was as pleasant as possible. Finally, Hassan, the main waiter in the restaurant, who is full of kindness. He addressed all our culinary requests including the breakfast takeaway bags when we needed to leave early for diving purposes.. I am not sure what to say here - perhaps the absence of tissues in the room ? But this was a minor inconvenience..

2 weeks lots of fun in the sun. From the moment we arrived at Ataraxis Grand and Spa for our two-week stay, we were swept into a world of exceptional service and unforgettable experiences. Nestled in the beautiful Maldives Fuvahmulah, this hotel is a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and adventure. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the impeccable service. Haam, the manager, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing short of spectacular. He introduced us to the unique natural wonders of the island, including an incredible natural mud bath experience and guided us to some of the island’s secret spots, adding a touch of exclusive adventure to our vacation. Equally impressive was Khokon’s dedication. His attentiveness was unmatched, always ensuring our needs were met, from warming up the sauna to immaculately maintaining our room. His commitment to our comfort made us feel truly pampered. The culinary experience at Ataraxis Grand was a gastronomic delight. The variety and quality of food served were exceptional, satisfying our taste buds with every meal. As an added adventure, the Pelagic Divers Fuvahmulah dive shop provided an exhilarating diving experience. Gaining my open water diver certification through them was seamless and thrilling, especially the dive with Tiger sharks – a memory I’ll cherish forever. The quality of our room was beyond our expectations, offering luxury and comfort in equal measure. This, combined with the fun explorations around the island, made our stay truly enjoyable. A special mention goes to Haam’s proactive approach in resolving a minor hiccup with the internet speed. Understanding the necessity of a stable connection for my work, he arranged for a private internet service at a reasonable cost, significantly improving my work efficiency. Overall, Ataraxis Grand and Spa is not just a hotel; it’s an experience that captures the essence of Maldives Fuvahmulah.. Overall everything was good.

Clean and cozy rooms. The hotel is in the best location on the island, near the beach and nature park.. breakfast varieties are limited but good.

Exceptional. I spent 2 weeks in ataraxis and I love it. Since the beginning they helped us to arrange domestic flight, organised airport transport and welcomed us with coconut and served delicious dinner. We stayed in really clean and specious room. The cleaning man was there every day. During our stay we had full board. Each meal was tasty, and the portions were so big. Fariq , Haam and the rest of stuff are lovely and kind people. They will help you to organise whatever you need during your stay or even take you and show you around. It’s a perfect place to stay when you love to dive or spend your time on the beach.. .

friendly welcoming hotel with warm and gracious staff - we felt well looked after. great location next to a lovely beach that is very popular at sunset, hotel is nicely designed with the most amazing smelling lobby ( a lovely lemongrass diffuser was always on). We were immediately recognized at the airport an the taxi ride is only 10 minutes. hotel is clean, tidy and modern - and the rooms welcoming and cosy with small but usable balconies. food is nice and I loved the local choices at breakfast, i even used the small gym to try and work off some of the amazing food Fuvamulah offers! Farigh the manager is very kind and helpful as are his staff - really feels like a home from home - thankyou guys!. i would have liked some sun loungers to be available on the rooftop terrace as its now more of a cafe and doesnt feel so relaxing to go sunbathe up there, this may be because it was not high season or perhaps a change of focus but as a female diver I may be in a minority in wanting a place to go read a book in a bikini , perhaps some sun umbrellas would be good too . in the evening it was nice to go have a drink up there so maybe it could be dual purpose.

Incredible week on the island with great accomodation and local experiences. Will return!. Myself and a friend spent an amazing week at Ataraxis Grand and Spa. The hotel is modern and clean with spacious rooms and only a few minutes away from a gorgeous beach, cafes and shops. There is a stunning rooftop with a beautiful view where you can enjoy the sunset with a delicious mocktail made by Hassan (the mixed berry mojito was a particular favourite of ours). We were diving for a week with Ricky at Oceanic Nomad Dive centre where we saw incredible reef life including Tiger sharks, and the hotel was great at accommodating our daily dive times for breakfast. The food was excellent and the staff couldn't have been more helpful especially Manik who looked after us so well at meal time including accomidating for allergies with a smile. Farigh the hotel owner went above and beyond to look after us including organising out flights to Male, local cooking class and surf lessons! We came to Fuvahmulah for the diving but discoved a beautiful haven of local culture and so much more to do there. We really felt at home and looking forward to visiting again! Would highly recommend!. .
