A dream cruise on a private dhoni!
We got the idea of taking a private cruise on the Dhoni Stella Maldives from listening to our friends tell us about their superb trip.
Jérome's initial email contacts were very rewarding, with answers to all our little practical questions. It was reassuring to have a Frenchman who knew the Maldives like the back of his hand to put together a tailor-made program for you, given that this was our first trip to this country.
The boat's crew was very professional, adapting activities according to the weather, so that we could make the most of the good weather.
With our 2 children, this trip was a memorable one, with snorkeling tailor-made for us to see everything: turtles, manta rays, schools of fish, sharks (very nice, not even afraid), dolphins (on the surface)...We followed a whale shark for 45 minutes, they were there just for us, thank you Nasru for spotting them. We were always alone at anchor, in the spots that the captain liked best. We caught all the fish that Kumar (head chef) prepared for us, both sashimi and cooked to perfection. And I'm not telling you about the evening on a desert island, just for us.... to be repeated as soon as possible. Thanks to the whole team, and good luck!
The plusses:the boat is superbly beautiful and comfortable, the crew is very friendly, and we feel right at home!
The minuses:one week is too short...

These 10 days on the Dhoni stella 2 have been fabulous.
Kaathee's food, Suleiman's kindness, Aju's humor and the Captain's professionalism made every day extraordinary.
Used to private cruises, this was by far the best stay we've ever had.
From breakfast to bedtime, the crew is always on hand to suggest an activity or to help you discover the beauty of the Maldives. Abandoned beach, snorkeling, diving, BBQ, whaleshark...
Beautiful cruise on the Stella

We really liked the high standard of the boat (Dhoni Stella MaldivesI) and the extreme friendliness of the entire crew, who took great care of us throughout the cruise.
Superb weather, very calm seas and lots of fish to snorkel with.
We are very satisfied with our private Maldives cruise.
We'll be back

Private Maldives cruise ideal for our family with our 2 children (aged 11 and 14). By specifying before arrival the style of cuisine we liked as well as the drinks, we were delighted with the catering on board Dhoni Stella.
For us, it was local cuisine (not too spicy for our children) and fresh fish.
The snorkeling and diving sites (we were lucky enough to spend 1 hour with mantas) were very beautiful. Especially when you're the only boat.
The lagoons chosen for nights were calm and pleasant.
Our only wish is to return with the same package, but perhaps for longer...
