I’ve booked an excursion trip with another very dishonest supplier, then I found Riveli. Who can take us for a combo trip (Manta/shark/turtle/reef). Riveli’s boat is bigger and better than another dishonest supplier’s boat and we found Manta! And swam with this beautiful creature for a while with Riveli’s help. Riveli gave our family a great trip and took us see everything as planned: Manta/turtles/reef/sharks. The owner of Riveli said if depart earlier we may see group of Mantas.

Riveli Retreat at Mathiveri Maldives averages 4.9 out of 5 across 73 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
Room is very clean, air-conditioned, simple, but everything is rather new and functional. It is located few palm trees from the beach. Place has only 6 rooms, not crowded. Breakfast is nice. Whole island is 10 minutes walk from side to side, locals are friendly, everyone speaks English, streets are safe, even at night. On amazing sand beaches water has that magnificent colour, almost unreal, people will think you used some filter 😉
I highly recommend this place the staff are extremely friendly and it’s right in front of the beach. The room was very clean! The breakfast was absolutely delicious!!
