Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a direct access to the ocean for convenient swimming anytime with basic rooms that have a great rustic feel and are clean, although some rooms felt below expectations. The location is superb, nestled on one of the most stunning islands in the Maldives with crystal clear waters and private islands nearby, but some management issues detracted from the overall experience.
