Pros:

酒店服务很周到，我们14:30的飞机，抵达后过完海关取完行李，走到E-19柜台就15:30不到。坐船2小时到达DHIGURAH，这个岛真的环境没的说。酒店的员工都很nice and helpful，很友好和主动给予帮助。餐食不算便宜，但出品很不错，早餐的种类稍少一些，但已足够满足我一家四口的不同需求了。
到达当晚吃完饭后，散步到沙滩，见到数不清的螃蟹和寄居蟹，更惊艳的是抬头见到了满天星斗。唯一美中不足的是，在居民区边缘有一个群垃圾处理场晚上会焚烧垃圾有刺鼻的味道。
第二天上午酒店帮忙叫了一辆tutu车去拖尾沙滩（10美元一趟）（我奉劝带小孩的家庭不要尝试走路过去，其实很远）15分钟左右就到了。9点多到达时人很少，早上潮水低一些，可以看到拖尾沙滩一直延伸到隔壁的度假岛。景色stunning，我一直想起麦兜动画里面那句“那里椰林树影，水清沙幼”。10点过后太阳就有点晒了，拖尾沙滩两侧各有好处，一侧沙幼浪缓可以游泳玩水，一侧滩涂礁石可浮潜看珊瑚和鱼🐟。很多人飞无人机拍美照，我们就沉迷于游泳和浮潜。
第三天早上参加了Manta浮潜，8点出发，快艇开了40多分钟才找到manta，回到酒店也就10点多。下午我们租了摩托车（一辆15美元半天）逛到村子里，在中心区一家有空调的餐厅吃了午饭和雪糕，还去居民沙滩边荡秋千和纳凉，看到沙丁鱼群。回酒店睡了午觉，5点又去了一次拖尾沙滩。徬晚是涨潮浪稍大，走沙滩的话要淌水前行，如果走陆路最好穿上拖鞋或沙滩鞋。拖尾沙滩看夕阳也是绝美。
第四天早上吃过餐后，8点多我们借了酒店的救生衣（5美元）就走到沙滩邻近turtle reef的位置浮潜，很幸运得半小时左右我们就发现了一个小海龟，一直跟着它潜了差不多一小时，当然也看到不少漂亮的鱼。11点多我们就离开酒店做快艇到度假岛了。在这个酒店一家人都玩得很愉快，谢谢酒店的一种员工。

Cons:

早餐蔬菜水果选择稍少一点

Muy buena ubicación en el paraíso.
Pros:

Muy buena ubicación y el personal muy servicial y amable. Las Habitaciones muy cómodas y el AC funcionaba a las mil maravillas.

Cons:

El precio de las Excursiones desorbitado, incluso comparándolo con otros hoteles cercanos de la misma isla. Estas obligado a hacerlas con tu hotel además. También tiene que mejorar mucho la WIFI. Sufría cortes constantemente. La nevera no enfriaba, únicamente tenía luz (no se Si por ser temporada baja) era en todas las habitaciones pues íbamos con más gente y a ellos les pasaba lo mismo en sus habitaciones.

Once in a life time snorkelling experiences, at a great hotel with delicious food!
Pros:

We loved our stay at Whaleshark Beach, the excursions are world class. Majuudee the snorkelling guide, is calm, kind and very knowledgeable. You can snorkel with whalesharks, manta rays, nurse sharks and sting rays, it is incredible! All staff in the hotel are helpful, the chef is amazing - we loved all the food. It's a quiet time to visit at the moment which made the snorkelling even more special. It was a holiday of a lifetime with ocean experiences we'll never forget.

Cons:

Nothing!

Brilliant!
Pros:

The staff were amazing!! I was greeted at arrival with a welcome drink and little grass fish necklace which was a cute gesture. They were very helpful with booking excursions and transfers to and from the harbour. Communication was also spot on with ordering my speedboats prior to arrival and departure.

Cons:

I don’t have anything negative to say about this property.

Pros:

Das Personal war extrem freundlich und zuvorkommend. Der Service war ausgezeichnet. Wir wurden bei unserer Ankunft bereits am Hafen erwartet und ins Hotel gebracht. Die Organisation der Ausflüge ist sehr gut, alles funktioniert reibungslos inkl. Transport zum und vom Hafen. Die Guides bei den Ausflügen waren nicht nur sehr bemüht uns das bestmögliche Erlebnis bieten zu können, sie waren auch sehr freundlich und auf unser Wohlbefinden bedacht. Das Zimmer ist top ausgestattet, sehr sauber und die Lage des Hotels ist ausgezeichnet.
Jeder Wunsch wird einem in diesem Hotel erfüllt.

Cons:

Es gibt nichts zu beanstanden. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt

Pros:

Das Hotel ist insgesamt wunderbar, das Personal ist sehr aufmerksam und zuvorkommend. Kudus war besonders hilfsbereit, und alle drei Kellnerinnen waren sehr freundlich. Das Hotel wirkt neu und komfortabel.

Cons:

Ich habe versehentlich einen billigen chinesischen Aschenbecher zerbrochen, den ich gar nicht benutzt habe. Ich habe den Vorfall selbst gemeldet, und sie verlangten 15 Dollar. Das ist kein angemessener Preis für einen alten, billigen Aschenbecher.

Dhigurah is beautiful local island
Pros:

The bedroom and staff were lovely - breakfast was varied and great tours on offer

Cons:

The sound from the diesel generators that run the electricity on the island across the pitch I got used to the hum but initially was like what is that sound.
