Nice reasonably priced boutique hotel right on the beach north of Malè airport. Restaurants and shops are walkable and a short cab ride to/from the airport. There are dive shops and water excursions right across the street on the beach. Would not hesitate to recommend. Staff was friendly and accommodating!

There were so much noises and constructions going on even at 9pm! The walls are not insulated, I assume, because we can hear the traffic, wind, people outside on the streets and in the hotel and all. It was non stop all night. If anything the noise died down after 1-2am and picked right back up at 4-5am. The bathroom window was automatically opened and can not be closed so the hot air from outside was constantly gushing in from the bathroom like a heat sauna. The ac/fan along with the electricity required the key card. NOTE they only provide ONE keycard. So when you leave your room, all electricity including the mini fridge & AC are all off. We come back to a hot humid room with hot air coming from the bathroom window and no cold beverages from the fridge due to the electricity being off when we leave and remove the keycard. Hall ways had no AC or fans and was hot and humid.

The hotel was new and very clean. The property is small, just 18 rooms, but that is ok. Staff is always present, which is nice and all are willing to help. The daily breakfast is very nice and they offer a variety of foods, making sure to change it up daily. It would have been helpful to have a guide of restaurants and shops available in Hulhumale, along with information about bus/taxi service to Male. The walls/connecting room doors offer zero privacy between rooms, every noise is heard!

My room, 301 was amazing. Although we only stayed one night because we were really going to a resort via seaplane the next day, it was top quality service by every member of staff. Place was so, so clean and well kept.

This hotel is a good option for a pre-resort stay. The rooms are small but clean and comfortable, and the location is perfect, just a short walk from the beach and many restaurants. There are also a few shops and cafes nearby, so you can easily get everything you need without having to go far. Overall, this is a good value for money option for a stay in Male

Incredibly expensive for what it was, but the room was spacious with a large balcony, and clean enough. When I first arrived, the room smelled musty, like it hadn’t been used or aired out in a while, probably because the room category was super expensive, but as soon as I mentioned it to the staff, they addressed the issue immediately. The bathroom lacked floor mats, which I think should come standard in any hotel bathroom, but there were two extra beach towels, which is a great plus for a property around the area. I never got to try the food in the hotel, but the restaurant was right above my room and loud all the time. you can hear a pin drop in the floor above you, which is the biggest draw back. i would get woken up at night from the sound of the tables and chairs being moved after service. but the super confortable bed, and fantastic view made it worthit.

Nice beach immediately across the street. Very clean, staff very eager to help. Excellent breakfast on the rooftop. Asked at the front desk where we could go for souvenirs, and no one really knew. Neighborhood is a local working hood, not bad, just not what we were looking for at the moment.

The property was well worth it for the price I paid. I stayed is Male for two nights before heading to my resort. I wanted to experience a little of the city and locals. The hotel is located about 10 mins from the airport and is facing the beach. There are restaurants along the beach drive that are affordable. Also, you can do tours from various tour operators in the area that are cheaper than the resorts. Over all, i would recommend this hotel and would stay again. The hotel serves its purpose. Inaddtion, the staff are pleasant and accommodating. Check out my Instagram: travelbyanymeans.

Dirty, smelly + very noisy room
The room smelt very bad, we contemplated booking another hotel. The whole night there was banging and shouting next to our room. There was also what seemed like building work. Disgusting bathroom. Not sure how this hotel has good reviews but avoid at all costs.

It’s a new hotel. The room is quite smaller than in the photos. Yet the decor looks similar. Very satisfied with their cleanliness, room amenities and facilities. The minus point is water capacity is very low, not much hot water. We stayed in a connecting room that was connected with another room where it was occupied by some guests. I don’t know because of it or the soundproof is not good enough, it was clearly noisy. We could hear a single sound from that next room. That needs improving.

Nothing great but not bad
For the Maldives its an economical place to stay. Nothing great, just a bed and a room. Rooftop view is nice, coffee is instant with powder creamer. Would think at least have real coffee. Breakfast is defrosted products. Moving to a different hotel with more to offer. Staff was however exceptional and very kind.
