Boduhithi
Coral Island North Male Atoll Maldives
North Male Atoll, Maldives
Resort Rating: 
Status : Under Construction |
Boduhithi is
the largest of Club Vacanza's 5 resort's in the country and
the only one that is still very much in the "club"
style. All the guests are Italian, there are lots of organized
activities and there are 20 Italian staff members whose job
is to get everyone involved.
The island has good natural growth but only two significant
beaches. This, however, is all that seems to be required.
One beach is around the main jetty, in front of the bar/lounge.
This is the "noisy" beach where everybody congregates
for canoeing, windsurfing, water aerobics, dancing on the
beach (to music from the bar) and general lively interaction.
The "quiet" beach is on the northern tip of the
island and is a large, wide open stretch of white sand. It
is also popular but there are no boats, boards or music. This
is the spot of getting down to serious sun-tanning. Most of
the rest of the island is walled in. The low, cement-topped,
coral wall is not too unattractive and it is broken up by
occasional steps down to the shallow water and soft sand.

ACCOMMODATION
The rooms are
essentially the same as the other Club Vacanza rooms. They
are very well specified, with two wash basins, hairdryer,
bidet, large mirrors, telephones and mini bar. The furniture
is of dark wood and dark vanished cane and the fittings are
of good quality. But the build quality was not perfect (gaps
in the bathroom tiles, an ill-fitted plastic shower rail).

- As always, the food is
excellent. The meals are buffet and the selection is comprehensive.
There is always a choice of pasta dishes, plus plenty of
salads and fruits. The tables sit eight, so guests mix and
meet in an easy way.
- After lunch and dinner there
are entertainments in the lounge, usually some participatory
dance, quiz or request game. In the evening there is also
a cabaret, fashion show or disco.
- The general atmosphere is
not at all snobby or exclusive, but friendly and easy going.
The resort is run smoothly in a relaxed manner. As long
as you know what you are letting yourself in for when you
book a holiday here, you will thoroughly enjoy it.
- The lagoon has good variety:
sometimes near and sometimes far (mostly near), with deep
areas and shallow. The snorkeling, however, is only OK as
the reef edge is still on the way back from a crown of thorns
starfish infestation a few years ago. There are good diving
sites to be found in the neighborhood, but diving is by
no means a priority on this resort.
