    I have had a very nice experience, this incredible, clean hotel deserves more than 5 stars. The staff were all friendly attentive and very attentive and provided friendly service. The a double room I got was fully-equipped. The property was in a stunning and amazing location near Wonderful beaches and great island with a lot of potential, perhaps a good choice as the first island in Maldives and a garden outside. It also was in the middle area. The pool was nice and I had alcoholic drinks in the main bar:)))

    The staff at the resort was excellent and provided great service. the location was amazing, close to the local airport and a short walk to beautiful Maldivian nature, a local island, and a food court. I enjoyed dining at the à la carte restaurant for 5 nights, and the service there was very kind. the presence of bathtubs in the room was a nice touch.

    Beautiful spot but a bit of a hassle to reach from the airport, still super convenient to move around once you're here. Room is huge, clean, and super stylish. Top-notch service all around 😉.

    Located near the ocean, this hotel offers a convenient location for backpackers looking to explore the beautiful surroundings. The main restaurant, Maakana, provides a variety of delicious meals to satisfy any appetite. Guests can also enjoy the stunning view of the island from their rooms, along with clean and comfortable accommodations. With friendly and attentive staff, a range of facilities, and a tasty breakfast, this hotel is a great choice for backpackers visiting the area.

    The transfer to the hotel can be a bit pricey for some backpackers.

    Upon arrival at the hotel, we were welcomed by friendly staff and quickly checked into our room. The location of the hotel allowed us to easily explore the surrounding area, with free activities available such as snorkeling and swimming. The circular layout of the resort created a sense of relaxation, with most rooms offering stunning views of the sea. Our room was comfortable and clean, with a spacious bathroom and attentive service. The breakfast buffet had a wide variety of options, including both local and international dishes.

    Despite the many positive aspects of our stay, we did notice that some of the beach chairs were placed in front of the beach cottages, making it difficult for garden room residents to access them without potentially infringing on others' privacy.

    The breakfasts were savory and fantastic with desserts and more western tastes. Excellent staff from restaurant to bar to reception to room cleaners. - the location was fantastic in a circular manner on the island. - It was not far from the dive center and a convenience store and the sea.

    We had an amazing stay at this hotel. The cleanliness of the rooms was top-notch, with housekeeping cleaning our room twice a day. The hotel facilities were excellent, especially the pool and the poolside bar. The location on the island in the Indian Ocean was perfect, right in front of the sea. Although not on the sunset side of the island, we still had a serene and beautiful view. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially the bartender at the poolside bar.

    Everything was fantastic.

    This place is nice and tidy, with a great ocean view 🌊. the room is spacious and comes with a TV, a mini fridge, and tea and coffee facilities. It's super convenient that the airport is just 0.5 miles away, making it easy to reach. I definitely suggest staying here for a pleasant experience.
