Over all we had a nice stay, amazing place , clean rooms , high food quality and friendly staff . We had amazing time .

As usual there is a bad apple between a good apples there was a guy from the dive center his name is ( Ango ) with long hear . Was too rude and has a bad behavior . If you see him chose other one to don’t destroy your day . All the other were to friendly so he doesn’t represent the hotel .

Overall, Nova is a wonderful place. On arrival our room was upgraded to one with jacuzzi, what was super surprise. Villa on water was spacious and modern, super clean with wonderful ocean view. Lots of colorful fishes, sharks just outside. Nice reef around. Good variety of food. In all in package quite good variety of drinks. Beautifull clean beach, a lot of space for everyone. And last but not least, fantastic service - people are a great advantage of this place.

Sometimes food was replenished slowly. Temperature in food area was too high.

Above the expectations. Pictures on the booking looks lovely, but once you landed on the island, it looks and feels in hundred times beautiful. Good value for money

Before booking, it’s good to mention about schedule/policy of transfers on a hotel page, as it’s something what made me miss my flight back eventually

We have been to 3 resorts in total and this was definitely the best. All worked super smoothly, from being picked up at the airport, to transferring to the seaplane terminal, to a comfortable Manta Air seaplane ride without any waiting time. The island is small and intimate, easily walkable with a beautiful beach and house reef for snorkelling, where we saw several black tip reef sharks, soooo many fish, an egale ray etc. The overwater villa was extremely spacious and so comfortable, with direct access to the water. The food was delicious (we booked full-board which was more than enough for us) and staff was extremely friendly. We also used the gym, which is nicely located with a full glass front in the middle of the island. In hindsight, we would only stay in Nova :)

Not really Nova's fault, hence no point deduction, but we unfortunately didn't see the whale sharks on our half-day-trip, which was one of the reasons why we booked a resort in this atoll. To be fair, they said the chance is 50:50, however in another resort, they only WENT if the animals were actually seen by scouts. That could be an option, but maybe the area is too big for scouts.

The island is a paradise on earth, we are in an amazing location with a wonderful beach. the room is very good and there are plenty of activities to do and animation, without exaggeration. the place is very quiet and we can rest with a lot of quality. the restaurants have quality and variety. From the manager Abdulla always very concerned about our well-being, even the room attendant Abbas who provided us with an incredible service and left nothing to be desired. Ali is an impeccable chef in the kitchen, he is an impressive man and tireless in satisfying every day with the best food and his delicious specialties and together with Anggle who made excellent eggs and of course James with the incredible sashimi and sushi. Sheiste knew our names from day one and was always very helpful and kind as were Shumais and Heidi. The island is fantastic, we spent 10 days but we regret not having stayed longer. We loved the experience and will certainly repeat one day. thank you all!

Small but cozy and green Island, just 25 mins from Male by seaplane. Great wide lagoon, almost without rocks or corals. House reef is decent, with abundance of marine life. Room cleaned twice daily. Daikin ACs are quiet. The team is great, in particular everyone at the main Soul restaurant. We were cooked meals to our order even though they were not in the buffet. Our kids were presented with hand-made souvenirs personally made by the folks at the restaurant. Overall a very soulful vacation)

Excellent service and very polite and friendly staff, who really worry about their gusts experience. Food and drinks are awesome. There was always a variety of seafood, meat, pasta, sides, desserts and fruits. The atmosphere of the hotel is super chill, however there are a lot of things to do such as snorkeling, fishing, whale sharks and mantas snorkeling. No crowds, loud music etc. Home reef is incredible!

The best touristic experience of our life. The seaplane transfer was well organized, only 25 minutes to the island from MLE. We stayed 7 days in a beach villa, close to the peer. It was comfy, spacious and always very clean thanks to Esa from the maintenance compartment. The staff was very helpful, the kitchen was variable and really delicious. I have to say thanks to Ali and Sonjeet, they were extreme friendly and kind. Such as at the restaurant we had Heidi, Muneeb and Visham and the whole stuff; so wonderful people who are there for every moment to make our holiday even better then best! Nova is brand new, with an exceptional house reef and great sealife. Dive spots are really good, wreck dive can be done. Thanks to Tanya who was a great dive instructor for my AOWD course, and she was very patient and kind to my 8y old doughter at the boublemaker program. Do not miss the whaleshark watching! It was a breathtaking moment to see such a big fish so close to you. It was our 4th time in Maldives, but this experience is a different level then the others. Its really touched our soul! We (and chocolate the giraffe) gonna come back for sure! Thanks Nova!

Nothing to write any words here

We stayed for 5 days in November and travelled with an infant. The island was absolutely beautiful and having revamped and reopened earlier this year, everything had a touch of freshness. We split time between beach villa and water villa with pool; both rooms were lovely and offered a different experience. The resort staff were fantastic - probably one of the most hospitable bunch of folks we have ever come across. Special mention of the chefs - Sinhal, Chameela and Ali, for taking extra effort to prepare special meals for our baby. Snorkeling was good, specially from the water villa. Overall, would definitely recommend this resort to fellow travellers.

Minor point - they should include lounge access in the Manta Air terminal in Male, like many other resorts have.

Heaven on earth 🌎

I was not informed that I had to take a seaplane to reach this place, which costs $460 per person. I received an email about these details only after making the payment, which is not refundable.
