Ufa Escape

We stayed in UFA ESCAPE for 5D4N. Although the room was not big but it was very cozy, and the shower was the highlight of the room. This place is extremely safe. We spent the whole day at the beach and sandbank, but we forgot to lock the door two times. However, all our things were still inside the room, and nothing had been taken or changed. The cuisine was delicious, from breakfast to dinner, and every day we had different options, including some Maldivian style dishes. This is not common in other guesthouses or restaurants in Dhigurah, as most of them only provide western-style food. During our travel period, it was fasting time, so we weren't able to see Hoodh’s performance at nighttime. However, that wasn't a bad thing because it gave us a reason to come back to UFA ESCAPE someday. Ahmed, Hoodh's father, was very nice. He met us at the Velana International airport and helped us take the domestic flight to Dhigurah. He shared everything we needed to know about their lives in the Maldives, including their plans to expand the guesthouse. Hoodh, Ahmed's son, is a handsome and very polite man. We are grateful to him for arranging everything for us. He even helped us bargain for a very good price to hire a private speedboat from Dhigurah to our next destination resort. Unfortunately, we weren't able to join the whale shark exclusion with Hoodh this time, which is another reason for us to visit Dhigurah again in the future. Finally, we need to appreciate all the staff at UFA ESCAPE who helped us in making an unforgettable memory on our anniversary. Thank you! FYI, I always used the WhatsApp message to communicate with Hoodh before we arrived the island.

hoodh jihad and jakir made the stay wonderful the room was a bit compact but the bathroom made up for that. open roof style bathroom you will love. room was absolutely secured we never locked the room. you will never get bored at ufa every evening hoodh and his father arranged singing and karaoke. in this island after dark there is very little to do but at ufa escape you don’t have to worry about that.the food was top notch always try to get full board package cause the food at ufa escape is the best on island. bring mosquito repellent.big problem for the island.should be addressed by the authorities of maldives. if you want to visit maldives on a budget don’t look further.

O hotel é sensacional. Todos os meninos são maravilhosos. Muito educados e prestativos. Marcaram todos os nossos mergulhos e passeios.

Piccola struttura a conduzione familiare. Cucina ottima, ampia gamma di escursioni e intrattenimento musicale dal vivo.

I am an avid traveler who finds the beauty and richness of travel beyond the conventional luxury of 5 star resorts. Instead of looking for extravagant hotels, I prefer cozy and authentic accommodations that allow me to get inside the destinations and get to know them from the perspective of the locals. I do not seek luxury in the form of grand hotel complexes, but rather I look for pleasant and personal accommodations where I can connect with the hosts and gain a deeper insight into local life. For me, this connection with people and their culture is a real gift when traveling because it brings unforgettable experiences and a perspective that cannot be obtained from the usual tourist attractions. And if you have a similar opinion about traveling and are looking for a cozy retreat on the picturesque Dhigura Island, the guesthouse "Ufa Escape" is the right place for you, as it was for us for 8 days. This small and friendly guest house is owned by a charismatic and incredibly hospitable owner named Hood, who will give you an experience like no other! Arriving on this amazing island is like entering another world! Ufa Escape is not just about accommodation, it's a home away from home! Hood, the heart and soul of Ufa Escape, welcomes every guest with a sincere smile and incredible hospitality. His ability to combine professional service with a personal approach creates an atmosphere where you feel like you are in the circle of friends. The guesthouse itself is a picturesque retreat. Each room is furnished with attention to detail and the atmosphere of the place, accompanied by the sound of the waves, is simply indescribably calm and soothing. The guesthouse has a small cozy restaurant, where every meal served is like a taste explosion of combinations of local ingredients (I recommend accommodation with full board, you won't regret it either in terms of taste or money). Evenings at Hood's restaurant, where not only delicious food is prepared, but also great singing and guitar playing by Hood himself, are simply unforgettable. Hood also prepares organized trips for its guests to look for underwater life, and discovering the wonders of the marine world in his company is an unbeatable adventure. All in all, if you're looking for an experience that goes beyond regular accommodation, Ufa Escape is the place to be! Hood's dedication to creating memorable moments makes this guesthouse a place you'll be happy to return to. It's not just an escape from reality, it's an invitation to discover the beauty of the Maldives in its purest form. 🌟 Definitely recommend for an unforgettable stay! Hood, my friend, thank you for everything!🌟

My friend and I stayed at Ufa Escape for 6 nights, when we arrived we had a very friendly welcoming with coconuts. Our accommodation was very clean and even though the shower was open there didn’t come any animals to visit. Everyday we were able to choose our Dinner out of 5 possibilities we could also choose the time. The Island Dhigurah is very beautiful and you can find a lot of nature there, the best thing about the Island is the long white beach and sandbank at the end! You can walk there within 40 minutes through the jungle in the middle of the island or you can take a shuttle, organized from the host. Close to the guesthouse like a few minutes away you can find some souvenir shops as well as some small supermarkets. Our Host was very caring, he helped us to organize our trips and reacted very flexible if any problems occurred. He wanted to give us the best experience possible of the Maldives. We also loved the karaoke nights, we had a lot of fun even though we can‘t sing! The only issue we had was before our stay at the guesthouse. The communication was a little bit difficult to organize a shuttle boat from male to dhigurah, but the problem was solved quickly an we had a boat at our arrival. We would recommend the snorkeling tour and whaleshark tour with ocenholic, we were able to see one and some Manta rays and a few little sharks and lots of fishes as well. If you want to experience a low budget stay, with an open, personal contact with the host you will habe a great time at ufa escape. We hope to come back one day!
