Great staff , they are a sincere bunch of guys , always ready to help out. The property could use a little maintenance however it is kept clean and tidy. A sweet one star and I would recommend this place and would have no problems returning.

2/10 Poor

The pictures they advertise are not at all the property. Broken windows , broken terrace , no island view, no lock on balcony door in room , no drinks,no food besides breakfast that is eggs , chicken hot dog and bread . The food menu they give you and then tell you they don’t have it . They advertise free shuttle but then ask you to pay for it and taxes each night on arrival . Then they asked again on departure and finally did take me to airport free after a struggle with management . The roof has trash and junk. The surrounding premise has the same . There are bugs in rooms. No hot water at all . No way to do laundry. You will wash by hand and hang on lawn chair to dry . This place is very trashy. Nothing like you see here . It’s fake photos . Be warned and stay elsewhere. The housekeeper male was the only one who tried to help. The rest seemed like wanted to extort tourists . The locals said the police are aware of them and they have done to many traveling .

No refleja lo que ponen en las fotos

A la llegada, todo bien,habia una chica en el aeropuerto de male indicándonos cómo llegar a la isla.Al puerto de mafuushi alguien vino a recogerme con un buggie.El hotel regular,ningún 4 estrellas.Diría yo una guest house.He pedido de comer y no lo tenían lo que pedí después que senté en la mesa y esperé un rato.La habitación muy espartana.Para hippie total.El baño ducha,water y lavabo (enano) todo en el mismo sitio ni siquiera separado por una cortina.No hay productos para ducharte o de estos que te dejarían en un hotel 4*.Solo un champú que no hace ni espuma y un jabón medio gastado.Toallas solo 2 no huelen bien.No hay un buen olor en general en toda la estructura .Para el desayuno no me levanté,era de 8-10am.Como si tuviéramos que ir a trabajar, no considerando que estás de vacaciones,pero creo que en toda la isla era así.Bastante escaso y de baja calidad además.Desayuné una sola mañana que tenía una escursion a las 08:30,de la cual el recepciónista tampoco avisó al que estaba de turno por la mañana así que tampoco tenían nada listo.No limpian el cuarto ni cambian las sábanas o toallas,un solo rollo de papel higiénico también para toda la estancia.Día de ck out: he pedido algo para comer,pagando porque ya era tarde para el desayuno,creo que el cocinero me ha dicho que no tenían nada ni café.Y toda la estancia ha sido: que no lo sabía, que mi compañero no me ha dicho nada, que no tenemos ni de eso ni del otro.No sé un poco improvisado todo.

地図が間違っているから気をつけて。刑務所至近です。

予約後に電話で本当に予約が取れていて且つちゃんと泊まることが出来るのか確認した上でだったので、今回は以前の様な宿無しの目に遭わずきちんと泊まることが出来て本当によかった。但し惜しむべくは地図。全く違います。刑務所至近に在ります。彷徨う私をARORAというホテルの方がバイクで送って下さり本当に助かった。部屋は広く清潔。従業員皆懇切丁寧。また泊まりたいが海側に新たにホテル建設中。直に部屋から海が見えなくなると思われる。残念。エクスカーションも帰りのスピードボートも此方で予約も支払いも出来るしフォローもバッチリだった。推奨。

地図が間違っているから気をつけて　実際は刑務所の隣、つまり島の最端に在る従業員皆懇切丁寧な推奨ホテル

予約を取ったにも関わらず予約が無いと言われる事もある中、ちゃんと働く社員に電話で確認して貰っただけあってちゃんと泊まれてよかった。ただし惜しむべくは地図。全く違います。実際は刑務所の隣、つまり島の最端。彷徨う私を見かねて『未予約者ならウチに泊めよう』と思い声を掛けてきてくれたARORAという島中部中央通りに面したホテルの方にバイクで送って戴いて到着出来た。部屋も広く清潔。アサインされた2階海側の部屋からまだ何とか海が見えて嬉しかった。(但し海側にホテルを建設中の為いずれ見れなくなると思われる。)従業員は皆懇切丁寧。ツアーや帰りの船のことにも気を配ってくれた。直ぐ裏、つまり刑務所正門の目の前に簡易コンビニ的なものもあるので何かと便利。金曜以外は就航しているとされる格安のフェリーだが、金曜以外でも休航となる日がある様で面食らった。またスピードボートも25ドルに値上がりされている。気をつけよう。

Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und das Badezimmer war sehr gross. Das Personal war super freundlich und hat uns bei allem geholfen. Wirklich nett und sympatisch. Das einzige was wir bemängeln könnten wäre die Lage, da es ziemlich weit vom Strand gelegen ist. Anstonsten alles Top !! :)
