The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. The location is literally on the shoreline where you have the breakfast served and you can enjoy good food.. the bed was comfortable and the room very clean. Hot shower, a kettle, a fridge and a rack. The AC and the fan on the ceiling also worked very well. Great value for the money. They also helped me to get the ferry boat tickets from and to the airport, and arranged the pickup at no extra cost.

If you’re looking for a serene stay, Cocomo is the place for you and Himmafushi is the local island you should visit. Everything was truly amazing.

The location is perfect, the beach is spectacular, the scenery is magical, the rooms are spacious and cozy, the place is well taken care of…and the food is just world class.

Location 25 min far from the Male Airport. The island as a village with a local people. The staff of the hotel take great care of you. From the beginning in the airport they have prepared transfer, we didn’t wait much. Only half an hour. They settled us before 2 p.m., we were at hotel at 11 a.m. Good restaurant at the hotel and staff are so kind. We really appreciate to the hotel and the staff. It was great 2 days.

First of all Mr Sanjay the manager of hotel was the perfect manager that I have ever met; he is a perfect consultant who is very knowledgeable and helpful in giving advice about the island and activities, with a very welcoming face and shining smile. My stay at SAMURA Panorama Hotel was absolutely excellent. The hotel truly lives up to its name, offering breathtaking panoramic views that make every moment special. The rooms were very clean, spacious, and beautifully designed, with great attention to comfort and detail. The staff were exceptionally friendly, professional, and always willing to help with a warm smile. From check-in to check-out, the service was smooth and welcoming. The atmosphere of the hotel is calm and relaxing, making it perfect for leisure stays. The location is another great advantage, providing a great sea view, easy access to the beach and downtown at the same time, while still offering peace and privacy. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend SAMURA Panorama Hotel to anyone looking for comfort, quality, and an unforgettable experience. I would definitely stay here again.

Novruz bayramı ərəfəsində getdik və hava super idi, əsl sezon idi. Yenilənmiş Deluxe Pool Beach Villanı seçmişdim istirahət üçün, çox bəyəndim. Təmiz, geniş, səliqəli idi villa. Qarşısında şəxsi hovuzu və dənizə birbaşa çıxışı var idi. Otaqda lazım olan olan bütün avadanlıqlar və əşualar var idi. Hər gün səhər saat 8-dən hovuzumuz və bağçamız təmizlənirdi və tez tez dərmanlanırdı. Yaxşı kı bu villanı seçmişdim. Hava limanından 15-20 dəqiqəlik məsafədə yerləşir ada. Sürətli katerlə gətirdilər bizi. Çox gözəl qarşıladılar, çox dadlı sərinləşdirici işki vermişdilər bizə. Düzü çox adam xoşlamır hava limanına yacən olanda ada amma bizim üçün yaxşı idi, çünki uzun yoldan sonra birdə yenidən təyyarə ilə daxili transfer çox yorucu olardı. Qayıdanda uçuşumuz səhər saat 9:00 da idi, səhər saat 6:00-da bizi transfer etdilər geri, kpmək etdilər check-inə qədər. Personal çox mehriban, diqqətcil və hər an köməyə ehtiyac olanda tez məsələni həll edirdilər. Hostesimiz Azaliya həm ingilis, həm rus həmdə türk dillərini bilirdi deyə onunla ünsiyyət rahat alınırdı və gündəlik proqramlar barədə bizi məlumatlandırırdı. WIFI çox yaxşı tuturdu, bircə bəzən dəniz kənarında olanda tutmurdu, oda olmasa yaxşıdı istirahətim pozulmurdu mesajlardan zənglərdən :) ARAAMU SPA zonası çox möhtəşəm idi və bəxtimizdən 1+1 kampaniyası var idi, bir masaj alana 2-si hədiyyə və inanınkı bu ona dəyərdi. İnsanın ruhu dincəlir. 100 dəqiqlik çiçəkli vanna ilə massaj götürmüşdüm, çox gözəl idi. Turlardan isə delfinlərə baxmağı götürmüşdüm, oda çox möhtəşəm idi, məsləhət görərdim. Dəniz sahili isə sözsüzki unudulmaz gözəlliyə sahibdir, dənizdən doymurdum. Koral rif isə çox zəngin idi hər cürə balıq növü, skat, bala akulalar görə bilərsiz, yaxşıca snorkelling edə bilərsiz. Yeməklərə gəldikdə isə, bizdə full pasnion idi, gündə 3 dəfə yeməklə, yalnız su daxildi, qalan içkilər hamısı əlavə ödənişlidir, ümumi yeməkləri pis deyildi, nəsə tapacaqsız yeməyə, ac qalmayacaqsız.

My wife, our 2-year-old, and I recently stayed at Sun Siyam Olhuveli, and it was an absolute dream. We split our stay between a Grand Water Villa with Pool and a Grand Beach Villa with Pool. Both were incredible; the Water Villa offered breathtaking views, while the Beach Villa was perfect for our toddler to play in the sand and dip in the private pool safely. The resort is beautifully maintained, but what truly made our trip special was the service from Mohamed at the restaurant. He was truly exceptional, incredibly kind and attentive to our family. He even inspired us to attend a weekly cultural event we might have otherwise missed and personally offered to let us taste various authentic Maldivian foods. His passion for sharing the local culture made our experience so much richer. He went out of his way to ensure our little one was happy, which made every meal a breeze. The lagoons are crystal clear, the food variety is excellent, and the hospitality is world-class. We had a wonderful time and can’t recommend this resort enough for families!

Everything was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived, the experience exceeded expectations. The island is beautiful, well-maintained, and surrounded by stunning turquoise water. The beach and lagoon are ideal for swimming and snorkeling. The room was very comfortable and clean, with daily housekeeping done to a high standard. Facilities are well organized, and everything you need is easily accessible. Staff were consistently friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful - always with a smile. You really feel taken care of. The location is excellent: close to Malé, yet it feels peaceful and private. Food quality and variety were great, and overall the resort offers very good value for the experience. Would happily return and confidently recommend Bandos Maldives to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-run island resort.

More than anything the staff at this place provides the excellent customer service. I would say this resort has the best customer service compared all other places i have stayed. Glad we choose this resort. An ideal place to enjoy and relax as couple. They have so many games which are just free, including free kayaking. They also have free photoshoot. Do not miss the snorkeling. Once again kudos to the staff there. Smiling faces with best customer service mindset.

Rooms cleaned every day, towels changed each day, trip from/to the aiport organized, so just after leaving Arrivals Zone at the airport we were taken care of. Lizzards, bats, tropical birds and a hen ;). No need to wear shoes while walking on the island. No crowds, peace and quiet. Would love to come back there one day....

As they are all small islands, I could have tried out another one whilst I was there. Or changed it up and gone to a luxury resort for 2 nights to have the best of both worlds. Apparently most people do this. This island is very affordable to stay on. There are a few small supermarkets for basic food - don't expect to stock up for your apartment. Eating out is affordable. I found a hotel called The Stone Hotel which was higher rated than mine. I ate there a couple of nights for $30, a great selection of buffet food. Very tasty. The hotel is lovely; I would have preferred my stay to be there. The beach is right next to their hotel. I did experience a bit of a sting when I went in the water one day, which, I was told, could have been from the seaweed. Tiny jelly fish? I spent my sunbathing time on bikini beach - lush!! Snorkelling and dolphin trips do not guarantee sightings. If you go to a luxury island, they have access to these glorious mammals in abundance - do these trips there if you are going to go. If you are going to take the journey here, I strongly advise you make the effort to go to a luxury island.

I loved the proximity to Male for ease of arrival and departure. I also loved looking at the city lights from afar, whilst being separated by stunningly turquoise waters and the gentle sounds of lapping waves. The marine life in the lagoon was plentiful and beautiful, and I had many marine visitors near my villa at all hours of the day. The snorkelling with sharks-excursion was probably the single best experience, but the resort itself was the star of the whole experience. The quality of the villa (amazing bed, wonderful toiletries from L'Occitane, the view, the constant refill of free fresh water and Nespresso coffee) and the rest of the resort (amazing food, world-class spa) was the stuff of holiday dreams!

We recently stayed at the Amber Beach Hotel and had a truly wonderful experience, largely thanks to the incredible staff who go above and beyond for their guests. A huge thank you to Mr. Ajun, one of the managers, who gave us a warm reception. He was incredibly helpful and polite, handling all our requests and logistics seamlessly. He even went out of his way to decorate our room, which made us feel so incredibly special! To add to that, the views from our room were absolutely marvelous. Wherever we travel, I am a big fan of breakfast, and Amber Beach exceeded my expectations. It was always a highlight, especially thanks to Ibrahim, a key manager in the kitchen, who took amazing care of us and made us feel like family every single morning. Our departure was completely stress-free thanks to Ajun again, and Haran, who drove us to the airport and handled our luggage with extreme professionalism. I would also like to thank all the other staff members, namely Anis and Sankar for housekeeping, Sajid at the front desk, Ridoy at breakfast, Rouf the air conditioning technician, and everyone else. The teamwork here is fantastic. I highly recommend this hotel for its top-notch hospitality!

It was a lovely island friendly people & I think I stayed in the best place for me on this island my host were fantastic, they could not of done more to make my stay any better than it already was 10/10 perfect 😍 I loved all the food I had @ Indian cafe,loved swimming @ the local beach, not bikini beach One thing I really disliked was Moscow yeda they tried to double charge me on my credit card when I asked them about 6 of them just started laughing, eventually I got my money back & that was the only bad experience on the whole island.

I absolutely loved my time in Thulusdhoo - my first time in the Maldives! I feel I picked a fabulous island to spend 4 days of relaxation and calmness following a busy elective healthcare placement. The island was so beautiful and peaceful. The beaches were so clean, white sands, the water was crystal clear, all sun-loungers free to use and very friendly locals and business owner stalls, businesses, and restaurants. A couple I met whilst away also got engaged on sunset beach with the most beautiful backdrop (a real must to visit during the evenings)! Plenty of places to choose from to eat - from beach bars to evening dining. I went to Juice Bench every day for lunch, the staff were so kind and smiley and the food was delicious and fresh. I also ate dinner at Indulge (10/10 pizza!), Cafe Bandaha for dinner, amazing tikka masala curry and the freshest apple juice! (Breakfast was included in my hotel - Eden Blue - which I also highly recommend!). I took two excursions with Baani Watersports - first the reef shark and stingray trip, which was absolutely amazing! The second trip was the sandbank and turtles trip, again - amazing! The team were very friendly, fun, and ensured we were looked after throughout. They took fabulous photo's of us all on their gopro which they sent to us afterwards free of charge. I also found their pricing very competitive! Getting around the island is easy peasy. I walked every day, it is quite small so can be easily lapped in around 45 minutes of strolling. People were also using mopeds and bicycles. I also received a complementary shuttle service from the ferry port to my accommodation and back which was a very welcomed bonus. Overall, the island is wonderful, the people are so lovely, and I'm SO glad I picked this island to spend my 4 days! I hope to be back one day soon - perhaps with someone next time so I have a companion in the evenings when it's a little quieter!

Apart from the amazing beach, what I liked most about Gulhi was the calm, peace and harmony in the island. It was not so crowded like some nearby islands, Something that I loved was the Gaadiya area where local food and other items were available at a low cost. I even loved the souvenir shop area. The items available were affordable and unique.

Great local island, it's big enough to have some great restaurants/hotels and small enough to feel like you're seeing how the locals really live. Located within the atoll perfectly, for short hops to resort islands and excursions. 45 mins from male airport.

The place is very beautiful and not so far from the capital, Male. You can move through the islands making use of speed boats services, which are available from the airport, for example. Some great activities, beyond the ones offered by each hotel, include diving with sharks, stingrays and whales. That is a special place, where you can go for relaxing and have a lot of fun as well. A little bit expensive, but is worth each $ spent there.
