This was a huge disappointment. However, most of it is due to false/wrong information on their website. According to Expedia/their website, this place had 11 restaurants, 11 bars and 11 cafès. They have none. At first they blamed it on covid; though I am pretty sure they did not "remove" 11 restaurants because of the pandemic. I also ordered all inclusive, which is quite impossible when they have nowhere to serve refreshments etc. And yeah; they fixed their website the following day. Their manager, Fazzan said he would "compensate" me by taking me on a boattrip at 10.30am the next day. At 10.30 I was there, he wasn`t. At 11.15 he texted me saying I had to come on the next trip instead at 11.40. At 11.40 I was there; he wasn`t. At 1pm he texted me saying "next day". Hopeless. He also didn`t understand the problem with the information being wrong...

Buffet restaurant is not available during COVID-19 emergency because of government rules, but we provide breakfast, lunch and dinner. We also found you a low cost transfer from the airport, 10 dollars price instead of 100 dollars normal price.

Would NOT recommend for solo female travelers
I would not recommend this establishment for solo female travelers. I was sexually harassed by the host of this property and in speaking to another female guest she experienced the same behavior from the host the day prior. All the other staff were great hand helpful but the interactions with the host left me uneasy and I ended up leaving a day early.

It's a homely environment and the owner is very friendly and helpful. You can arrange day-tours and activities packages with them. I do recommend this.

Great Value
This is a great budget alternative to the expensive resorts. Located on a local island, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles you get at a resort but with the beauty of the natural environment, you don't need it (or if you do, you can get a day pass to a fancy resort!) They offer a fantastic variety of day trips at very good prices and are very accommodating, giving the personal touch. Rooms are very basic with no tv but the air conditioning and wifi in-room are both excellent. (My son could watch youtube.) Rooms were very clean. We didn't get a package with board so the meals were $5 for breakfast, $10 for lunch and $10 for dinner with a buffet style, well worth it. I thought the food was excellent - it was mostly local dishes with different things every meal. Didn't think I'd eat curry for every meal but they had so many different varieties and it was mild so I even had it at breakfast! Staff were always quick to give you water and other drinks as requested. A small local store is steps away so you can buy basics like soap and shampoo etc for low cost. You can get a ferry there really cheaply but with our flight times we needed a speedboat pick-up which was expensive at $50 per person each way (so $200 for my son and me). Staff were all very nice. Overall, we loved it and would return.

In general, my trip was amazing and I really enjoyed my stay at beach heaven. At the airport I was picked up by the exception Nastasha. She is very nice and informative. Based on price, I think the accommodation is good and the service is good as well. Everyone is friendly, nice and accommodating. The island has a nice beach and tons of fun activities. Food is good as well. If am visiting Maldives again, beach heaven will certainly be my choice. Cheers

Beach Heaven is really Heaven!
I have decided to leave my family at home for a week and come to Huraa. Beach Heaven was an excellent choice. Thanks to the whole team: Natasa, Janez, Marlene, Toni, Hussein and many others for great atmosphere and amazing trips: fishing, snorkelling, a desert island and sandbank. I felt really at home in your outdoor 'living room' under the palms where we could relax in hammocks and enjoy wifi and make friends with the people from many different countries. The island is not very big but interesting. The local people speak some English and literally everybody greets you around. There is much wildlife: crabs, bats, lizards and lots and lots of colorful fish. There are also turtles and even dolphins. Huraa has a bikini beach too. Beach Heaven rooms are really OK for a guesthouse and food was interesting because of some local tastes. I will miss this place and, of course, the people. I think I'll come back to learn diving:)

Maldive al naturale
La struttura è ricavata da diverse costruzioni tutte piuttosto vicine fra loro, la zona living come la chiamano loro corrisponde all'approdo e non ha alcun confort anzi si possono vedere alcuni oggetti abbandonati come frogoriferi stufe Bidoni e scaffali non meglio identificati. La zona del ristorante è metà al chiuso con ventole sempre in funzione e metà all'aperto sotto un tendone che non ripara però dalla pioggia. Il personale è molto gentile e disponibile ma non conosce minimamente cosa significa il mestiere del cameriere, probabilmente perché nessuno glieli ha mai insegnato. Infine la camera è pulita e spaziosa ma non vorrei parlare del bagno che avrebbe bisogno di una profonda ristrutturazione. Queste guest Hause hanno enormi potenzialità ancora da sfruttare.

Grazie per la recensione. Stiamo facendo tutto il possibile per offrire un soggiorno confortevole alle Maldive a prezzi estremamente economici anche in periodo di altissima stagione: 8 notti dal 31 dicembre all'8 gennaio, 2 persone in pensione completa, costo totale 864 US$!

Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis OK
Das Zimmer war verhältnismäßig ok, wenn auch ohne Fenster nach außen und mit feuchten Wänden. Leider war der Bikini-Strand mit alten, kaputten Liegen ausgestattet, ohne Schirme oder sonst. Schattenspender neben einer art Müllkippe. Die Menschen waren sehr freundich und zuvorkommend und das Essen für den Preis völlig in Ordnung.

ゆったり過ごせる極上のビーチ
クレジットカードが使えないためデポジットを事前振込したり送迎のスピードボートや宿泊料を現地で現金払いしなければならず面倒でしたが、スタッフはフレンドリーでとても親切でした。シュノーケリング等のアクティビティーも充実していました。ただ、ダイビングは別のダイビングセンターへの申し込みが必要なようで繁忙期のためか予約がとれなかったのが残念でした。小さな売店や土産物屋が少しあり必要なものはそこで購入できました。ビーチにはほとんど誰もおらず半貸切状態でゆったりと過ごせました。
