We spent 1 week in this wonderful island. If you look for a small quite place this is the rigth choise. Every house is beach front ,just 2 steps away from the see. All the island is surrounded by a wonderful reef.The restaurant is good and the staff very friendly.Perfect if you want to dive but even snorkeling is amazing.

We stayed at Makunudu from 6th - 17th June 2012 on HB Basis. Flew with Emirates out of Gatwick and as usual the service and inflight were second to none. This was our umpteenth visit to the Maldives and had selected the island based on its size, prior to arrival we had emailed ahead based on other reviews asking for... More

We stayed on Makunudu for 10 days in October. This was our 7th trip to the Maldives and we've stayed on budget islands and 5 star resorts. We chose Makunudu because we were looking for a small island with good diving, good food and and reasonable prices. We arrived at Male and waited for about half an hour for other... More

We chose Makunudu Island because we hoped it would be the nearest thing to our Robinson Crusoe dream - idylic setting, small, uncrowded, intimate and very quiet. And it didn't disappoint! Transfer to the island is by speedboat. It takes about 55 minutes but really doesn't seem that long. When we arrived in March, the sea was like a mill... More
