Honestly, everything is perfect. The peace and quiet, the facilities, the view... It's paradise... We wake up with the sunrise, have breakfast, go snorkeling, relax on a deckchair in the shade, play games, watch the sunset and the stars! 🤩 They offer excursions, but we didn't even need them... we felt really good there.

Our goal for this getaway was simple: to unwind and escape the everyday. We were drawn to this destination for its promise of seclusion, minimal crowds, attractive pricing, and encouraging reviews for a recently launched establishment. We weren't disappointed – it delivered on all fronts. From the outset, communication with the owner and manager via WhatsApp was seamless and helpful, including arranging our transfers. The island is wonderfully intimate; you can explore its entirety in a gentle 10-minute walk. The tranquility, with so few other visitors, was precisely the atmosphere we craved. The accommodation is new, bright, and tastefully furnished, true to the online photos. The room was well-equipped with air conditioning, a fan, a private bathroom with a shower, a mini-fridge, and a safe. We slept soundly on the comfortable double bed, and daily water was a thoughtful touch. The restaurant offers a core menu, but the kitchen team was incredibly flexible, preparing our requests, and the seafood platter was fantastic. Just make sure you arrange this in advance. One of the most memorable moments was when Nya, having heard my wife’s birthday had just passed, surprised her with a cake and candles while the entire staff sang 'Happy Birthday'. It was a genuinely heartwarming gesture that left my wife overjoyed. Every staff member we encountered was attentive, genuinely welcoming, and always smiling. The pristine beach and crystal-clear water were a daily delight. We had incredible encounters with marine life, spotting turtles, small sharks, and even a graceful stingray. Nya also offered a selection of activities at fair prices, enhancing our experience. Ultimately, this was an impeccable choice for the peaceful and rejuvenating holiday we envisioned. I wholeheartedly recommend this hidden gem for those seeking a private, picturesque, and budget-friendly escape.

We were delighted to have an affordable way to enjoy the Maldives without sacrificing comfort. This hotel really punches above its weight in terms of value for money. The friendly and competent staff function flawlessly as a team, giving every guest the feeling of being cared for. Snorkeling in the area, despite Tsunami damage and recent coral bleaching events, remains very good, with lots of different kinds of fish. The pier in front of the hotel where you can see nurse sharks and rays at night is a very special experience. We appreciated receiving a free upgrade to a larger room. The island has a very well stocked pharmacy with helpful staff.

If there was a higher score we would give it. The best hotel in the Maldives and we have been to many hotels. Super comfortable beds, excellent Wi-Fi, everything is clean and new. Thanks to the amazing staff, especially Ali and Moosa who took such good care of us every day, we extended our stay here for six days. We just couldn't leave. The hotel is located right on a perfect beach, outstanding snorkeling! The food is super delicious, the locals are amazing, it is highly recommended to take a tour with the wonderful Hassan. If you want to truly experience the Maldives, come here!

The host and staff were friendly and very helpful. We had interesting conversations with Mr Rauf, Mr Jarva and Mr Paul and they were always ready to provide assistance when asked. The proximity to the beachfront makes this location a good getaway for those seeking sun and relaxation.

Nice place in a quiet island. Room was very spacious bed very comfy. Food was delicious Breakfast & Dinner. Staff super friendly, very helpful. Price was reasonable.

The overall set up, the rooms, the cosy restaurant, the exceptional activities, and above all the staff attitude and approach. Fernando, Serena, Dhahu, Shabeen, Inkey, and all other dearest people that put their hearts and souls into serving us and making our stay unforgetable! And the best housekeeper ever!

It is a very small family island with very nice and attentive staff. Modern new hotel. They clean twice a day. It can be reached by motorboat and seaplane. The food is delicious and varied. The reef is excellent. The number of fish is also higher than usual

The beach was great and very long, with lots of shadowing umbrellas and sunbeds, the structure a bit old but still comfortable and always clean. Food was very good and there was a wide range of choice, especially the live cooking spots (the chefs were very kind and fast). All the staff has been welcoming and fine, a special mention to: -HASSAN from the PADI diving center: he has been a great instructor and made us fall in love with scuba diving. He is also a photographer so he made for us a short film about our immersion: a memory we will always keep in our heart. Also very punctual and professional. -CHATHURANGA from the restaurant: he was the best supervisor ever: always very careful and smiling. He made every meal more pleasant. -YOOSUF from the boat excursion: he was so funny and easy going, he is a local and told us a lot about his island.

The room was nice, spacious and clean with very comfortable bed. I had everything I needed. Location was also great, couple of minutes from bikini beach. And special thanks for my Maldivian breakfast, it was simple but best I had in other accommodations on other islands.
