The Standard, Maldives, by Hyatt

Breakfast was very good. The staff very courteous.

Food costs were a bit higher than expected

Saying that our stay here was incredible is an understatement.We stayed here 10 days for our anniversary, and the hospitality here we saw from everyone was really professional and very friendly.A shout-out and a very special thanks to Poula who made sure that our every request was fulfilled. He was our friend here on the island and made sure that our stay was exceptional.The best thing about this hotel is the lagoon view from the villa, and what an incredible view it is. No pictures you will see online will ever do it justice. It was simply breathtaking, and the sea life we saw in the lagoon and at the island's reef was abundant.

Property, ocean, restaurant, staff, especially Poula the host .. everything were amazing ? Fist time in maldives and not gonna be the last because of this amazing resort.

None!

The staff was very friendly, helpful and professional. The place was as expected and with good privacy

Beautiful location, uninterrupted views from bungalow, large and comfortable rooms, food was excellent (we didn’t go all inclusive so made full use of the various restaurants). Staff were very helpful and friendly. Excellent snorkelling and diving - highlight of the trip. Communication with hotel beforehand was very helpful too.

The Beach Villa was great. Much privacy and fantastic location. The staff was very nice and the food was of good quality

From the pickup at the airport to the drop off at the airport the Standard staff were friendly and available at all times to answer any questions. Zainu, my host, was always reachable and gave me daily updates with the activities available.My over the lagoon bungalow was spacious, with sun on the private deck/pool. It was nice to be able to get into the lagoon directly from my deck.I took 3 Zumba classes with Mikey (2 on land and 1 in the pool). This was my favourite of all the activities I did. Mikey is a great instructor; his class was not only the best workout I had in months but also the most fun (I typically workout 4-5 times a week, so that is saying something!). I left each class feeling good and in a better mood than when I walked into the class. I enjoyed the snorkelling excursions, the night snorkelling was an especially neat experience.

First of all, the sea was incredibly beautiful, with crystal-clear water that was perfect for snorkeling. Our villa provided more privacy, and the pool was just perfect (we stayed in the lagoon-side beach villa, which offers more privacy compared to the ocean-side villas that have less privacy but are closer to the sea and more ideal for snorkeling). The bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom was wonderfully spacious. The food was delicious and offered a great variety. The hotel is also child-friendly. We really enjoyed the activities, especially the sunset fishing, which was a lot of fun, and we caught plenty of fish. The staff was exceptionally helpful, making our stay worry-free! We appreciated how well-organized our departure from the hotel was, with assistance all the way to check-in at the airport. Thank you for a fantastic experience!

If there’s one place that captures the essence of paradise with luxury and that too on a reasonable budget, it’s The Standard, Huruvalhi Maldives. From the moment we soared over endless turquoise waters on a seaplane, we knew we were about to experience something truly special. Touching down at the resort felt like stepping straight into a postcard—pristine white sands, lush palm trees, and that signature Maldivian blue stretching as far as the eye can see.Exceptional Hospitality – A Special Thank YouA huge shoutout to Paola, our incredible host, whose warmth, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality made our trip seamless and unforgettable.

Wonderful place, very nice food, nice staff only complaint there is no AC on restaurant, so during lunch time you have your meal sweating… apart from that the resort is AMAZING

Location and outlook from water villas was perfect.Water villas are very large.Island is beautiful and well maintained.Snorkelling reef excellent.

Noise from young children. Limited lunch options.Shame we couldn’t collaborate on social media realms and travel blogs. Perhaps we can arrange it formally for next year!

Incredible breakfast buffet. My family stayed in the over water villas and had the best time

Some of the food was overpriced and the wine list could be a whole lot better in terms of quality for the prices.

Great vacation at the resort, the staff were always polite and attentive, the room was clean and well-structured, the food was delicious and varied every day.Great variety of drinks.If I return to the Maldives in the future, this resort will definitely be on my list as an option.

Beautiful island and super friendly staff. We loved the food, the amazing beach, the water sports and the evening entertainment (with two very good movies to watch under the stars and a great DJ on a couple of occasions too). The tennis court is pretty good too, although best to bring your own racquets as the ones available onsite were very basic. We all enjoyed the bikes to move around the resort.

The gym equipment was quite limited.

Property size is great. Not too big not too small. Amazing beach and nice pool. Really good staff. Zainu our primary host was super helpful and all the staff made the stay for our two year old truly wonderful being extremely friendly and attentive.

Our first trip to the Maldives did not disappoint not only they took care of every aspect of my request from the moment I booked and I was able to book all my activities and restaurant reservations in time. The island is superb, the coral reef rooms are a bit shallow so mind your step or wear proper shoes to protect the Coral. Value wise could be cheaper specially for the amount per night. Our island manager was Shaan helps us with all our activities personally and was a pleasure to have always letting us know our next activity and reservations amazing staff for sure!

NOTHING IS AMAZING I WANT TO GO BACK

Amazing hotel Great peopleGreat foodIncredible Snorkeling

Lack some more activities for adults and kids

Island is a paradise. Vila’s well spaced and furnished. All inclusive service was good. Replenishment of minibar. Good that you can go to all 4 la cart restaurants with all inclusive menus available. Excursion for dolphins as courtesy. Drinks by the pool. Pool and common areas. Private pool. Good housekeeping service. Overall good and courteous staff. Bikes to wall around. The resort didn’t feel overcrowded at any time. We could find soot on swimming pool any time.

TERRIBLE NOISE at Vila’s overwater all the day and night. I could not sleep neither relax in the sun beds. During the day pump pumping… during night air conditioning compressor outside unit. U hear and feel vibration in the bathroom that is open to outside. In the sun bed so not relaxing and WORSE you hear inside room that is not noise proof… clarity in the room… since door of bathroom is like glass early morning room is already with lights. No curtains at this part. Yes I complained about noise and vibration first day to host but even saying would ask somebody to take a look nothing has been done. Walking around all Vila’s seems to have same engines working day and night either from pumps or air conditioning. As these are close to rooms you can hear and feel it. Not sure we would be happy any other overwater room.

The kids club staff was very kind to our daughter ?. Especially Daria & Lama.Pristine, clear and clean water
