This was an excellent place to stay. Great location and helpful staff. The room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was simple but delicious. Some excellent recommendations for water sports/ activities were provided by the staff, which we really enjoyed and was very reasonably priced for all the sea life we ended up seeing. It was amazing! We were in a ground floor room. The only issue we had was the headboard seemed to have some gaps and there were bugs that came out of this like ants and a giant cockroach (when it was raining). When we later told the staff they were very proactive and said they would check the room and fill any gaps immediately. The apologised for that experience and had advised if we called them even in the night they would have gotten the cockroach out of the room for us. I would stay here again and recommend the hotel.

The hotel is very small, with only 7 rooms in total. The boss often picks people up at Male Airport, so you don't see him at other times. There are two guys in the store, one is responsible for picking people up. I added the guy's WeChat in advance and helped to book the boat ticket (to the island) in advance. He was already waiting for us at the pier when we arrived. He pushed a small cart to help us carry our luggage and took us to the hotel. He poured juice for us at the hotel. The juice was cold, but warm in my heart. The guy who left the island was also this guy. He said hello, "I'm going to Duxi. He first confirmed the seaplane time, helped us arrange the speedboat schedule for leaving the island, sent us to the pier, and helped us carry our luggage throughout the journey. The other guy was very shy and helped us make breakfast. One day we had to go out to sea very early, and he packed our breakfast in advance. The day we left the island was also the day we packed it for us to take away. One night, I wanted to eat instant noodles and wanted to borrow their kitchen (because one package was in a bag and there was no bowl, so I couldn't make it directly), and the guy thoughtfully fried an egg for each of us. Really, although the hotel is small, it feels like home, very good! If I have to say something bad, the air conditioner dripped a little, but it was not a big problem. The hotel has three floors and no elevator, but the guy helped us with the luggage, so it was no big deal. There were also bugs in the room, but this is Maafushi, there is really no way to avoid it, I guess all hotels have it. The overall feeling is very clean and tidy, very good!

Before leaving China, we contacted the manager of the hotel. He arranged for staff to pick us up at the airport and helped us buy speedboat tickets for 20 US dollars each. At the dock, the staff used a cart to carry all our luggage to the room upstairs. The service was thoughtful and enthusiastic. The room was large, the supplies were very new, and the living was very comfortable. There were 4 kinds of breakfast every morning, you could choose one or combine two breakfasts. The service staff was very responsive and enthusiastic. We were worried that there would not be enough water on the island and we needed to buy mineral water with US dollars, but the hotel provided unlimited drinking water. We were worried that there might be a lot of mosquitoes on the island. We communicated with the manager before checking in and asked him to spray insecticide in advance. There were no mosquitoes in the room. But be careful to turn off the bathroom light when you go to sleep, otherwise the mosquitoes outside will enter from the entrance of the bathroom. We chose to eat breakfast in the room, which avoided mosquitoes outside. There is a clothes drying rack outside the room. The roof is made of wood and is very unique. It rained every night and was sunny during the days we were here. The room is surrounded by residents and is very quiet, unlike the popular hotels that play rock music all day long. It is 10 minutes away from the beach and 10 minutes away from the pier. Overall, I am very satisfied. The owner is very enthusiastic and often chats with us to help us solve temporary difficulties.

I want to share something with my friends who want to book this hotel: We asked the hotel front desk where we can eat local Maldivian food. An old man said that it is difficult to eat Maldivian food in Maafushi because it takes a long time to prepare, and it has basically been replaced by local food. Nowadays, Maldivian women all go out to work, and rarely cook Maldivian food at home, so now young people in Maldives are also used to eating foreign food such as hamburgers and fried chicken. But! The hotel's breakfast is a special breakfast in the Maldives, and it is specially made by someone hired by the hotel. Friends who want to stay in this hotel should remember to try it. Small pancakes, eggs and salad that tastes like fish floss and onions. If it's not enough, you can also ask for banana jam pancakes.

This family room is a perfect score! The room is large and clean. This hotel recommends that you choose a large family room instead of a double or single room. The large room is twice as big as a double room! The guy who makes breakfast is very polite, which is the biggest plus point of this hotel!

I really don't have a good impression of this place. The price is acceptable during the Spring Festival, but I couldn't catch the flight on the third day, so I contacted the owner very early, but he didn't want to refund me at all. I said I could refund half, but I didn't stay on the last day, and he didn't refund me a penny. The environment and sanitation are also average.
