Good location for resort/dive boat transfers

We used this hotel three days surrounding a liveaboard diving trip and found it very convenient and comfortable (Expedia, however, expects 3 reviews for these separately booked days...). My brother stayed an extra day at the end to make a later flight, and recommends the beachfront restaurant next door for eats and view. Be prepared for instant coffee, not brewed, at the hotel...(our otherwise wonderful boat was the same).

More than adequate for brief stays

We used this hotel for 2 separate nights around a liveaboard dive trip. We had a bit of trouble linking up with the hotel driver on arrival, and ended up rent a taxi to get there (hotel then paid taxi). Transfers are NOT free. We rented two "business suites" to get two beds; these rooms are of adequate size and interestingly decorated. No elevator, but there is porter service for bags. Staff is very nice, although English comprehension is limited. Location is almost on the beach, safe neighborhood, nice to walk around. Food is ok. Only instant coffee is available... 10 minutes to airport and ferry to Male makes this hotel more convenient than staying in the city if you are just staying over prior to moving to a resort or liveaboard.

Its a very pricey hotel and not more than 3 star.

Don't expect reasonable buffet breakfast. As there were only fish curry, beans and egg of your choice available. The choice was too limited to enjoy breakfast. You're better off eating outside. It is 15 mins away from airport and from capital male you have to take ferry after going to the airport terminal

一泊なら我慢できる

お部屋は悪くなかったが、タオルの匂いが少し気になった。エレベーターがないので、大きな荷物を運ぶ際に、女性は大変かも。朝の空港への送りは予約の時間通りだったが、到着した際の迎えが心配だったので現地のコーディネーターにお願いしたが、ホテルに着くまで時間がかかった。なかなか到着しないし、乗り合いみたいにいろいろ回って時間がかかった。

Was a little disappointed with this hotel. Firstly they send info telling you to wait for the airport shuttle. It wasn't there and had to call three times. Then they charge you for the return shuttle whend that was the discussed. Hotel room tv didn't work and there was no WiFi in the room at all. For the price I think there might be other options out there. Service was good and people were nice.

A quirky little place Ok for a short stay.

Our experience didn't start well - even after confirming our flight arrival times twice they still failed to pick us up, we had to call the hotel. We waited almost an hour and when we were finally picked up there were no transport options for our surfboards so they had to be stored at the airport for US$10 ea. When we got to the hotel we were checked into the wrong room and when they discovered this I had to get out of the shower and move to another (larger) room. Also noted that in both rooms the mini bars were warm. Staff and management were really very nice and have the best intentions but when they're busy the systems seem to break down. The rooms are adequate but be aware the beds are very firm.

Perfect transit hotels in the Maldives.

This is our 2nd stay with the property. Both times we arrived at 1.30am and left at 6am. They sent a driver to pick up up from the airport and drop us off. This time we were slightly disappointed since our driver was not there when we arrived and had to wait 30 minutes or so, especially since we were traveling with 2 children. If I did not have children I would have just waited at the airport in between transfers.

We were picked up from the airport by the staff which was after 11pm in the evening, they greeted us on arrival with cold towels and drinks, the whole experience was amazing from the staff, hotel ambiance, comfort and cleanliness , they were so helpful and welcoming in every way , we celebrated New Year with them which was a lovely experience and would highly recommend if looking for a small personal hotel with great service, Food was home cooked and delicious, Breakfast was basic but nice,

Recommended for getting a local experience.

We used this hotel as a pre/post location for the transit to the island resort, and is perfect suited for that purpose. It is a nice charming hotel with a friendly and really helpful staff. The reception/restaurant and room were nice and clean (not so much the hotel surroundings). Airport transfer roundtrip is also arranged at a small fee, recommended. As there is not much to see in the neighborhood, there are several activities that is arranged by the hotel or 3rd parties (watersports and excursions). If you are female, don't forget a appropriate bathing suit (long shorts and t-shirt) if the local beach is tempting. Be aware that there is zero tolerance for inappropriate dress code and alcohol as this is hotel is located in the residential area of Hulumale. However, a nice stay and we really enjoyed it. Kind of a contrast to the luxury island resorts, and together with a visit to Male (bring a guide) you will experience something unique and off the beaten track. The only minor downside for us was the rather hard beds and it took ages to get hot water in the shower...

我們有點後悔在這間飯店住太多天,原因是把飯店網站裡介紹的行程過於美化, 我們想參加的釣魚和跳島行程因為人數不夠而被取消,跳島活動則是到了出發時才說, 其他旅客不克參加,如果我們執意要去必須再加300美金! 會住這家飯店是因為訂房網站上評價不錯,有些人說餐點好吃(我倒不覺得), 一盤義大利麵跟一盤綜合海鮮(其實一點都稱不上拼盤)就花了40多元美金, 完全吃不飽! 回教國家的人不太熱情甚至有點冷淡,你對他們說過的事,他們會去作但不太有效率, 第一晚抵達時,我就說過接下來要去的島上飯店, 兩邊的飯店會連絡並通知對方來接人,光是這件事只要換一個櫃台就問我一次, 問到我實在是很懷疑他們的做事方式,除了飯店很乾淨之外, 我不想推薦大家這間飯店,房價每晚130元美金卻沒有達到標準,算是附近最貴的一間飯店, 與其說是飯店不如說是一間小民宿只有10間房,在附近的巷子裡有很多新開的民宿, 雖然我沒住過但房價卻只有Le Vieux Nice Inn二到三分之一的有些還面海, 如果你只是中轉機短暫住一天找間便宜又乾淨的住吧! 千萬別像我異想天開的住了好幾天! 當初入住時我給了一張全新的百元大鈔當押金(保管箱),事後歸還時, 卻拿了幾張20元且破爛不堪的小鈔,當時身上已無當地貨幣, 櫃檯人員說美金可以通用,結果我拿去對面超市,店員不肯收, 之後我很不高興地反應這種情形,櫃檯才又換了一張較新的20元小鈔給我!
