Convinient hotel for short stay, close to airport
We stayed here 1 night as we arrived late into Male and were travelling to another island the following morning. Relax Beach Inn was a resaonable priced option for our very short stay, close to the airport. They kindly arrange for transport from the airport which was good as well as transport back to the boat port the next morning, all at a reasonable price.Would recommend this for a short stay like ours!

Nice Staff
The hotel is a very basic hotel and perfect for an overnight stay. The room is small and feels like renting a room at a guesthouse but if you just want a place to sleep, this is the place. The hotel staff was very nice, friendly and welcoming. The hotel is about a 15 min ride from the airport and they do provide shuttle service but seems like it is a common trend to wait over 30 mins for it to pick you up. We called in advance to see if we could avoid having to wait but we were not allowed to do reservations. Overall, a great overnight location with breakfast included.

Clean hotel, next to beach.
Staff was nice and hotel room was very clean. Bed was comfortable. The only negative thing that we noticed was that the lobby smelled of cigarette smoke and the second floor hallway smelled as though someone had just vomited.

Fantastic location, fantastic excursions and fanta
The staff were fantastic, nothing was too much trouble. the excursions were easy to organise and were well executed. The staff at the hotel, cafe and excursions were all exceptional. I'd definitely stay here again and recommend to others. Its a great local experience in the Maldives.

Not good at all
We booked in for five nights, however we stayed just one, and moved to a far better hotel in Male. The staff were unfriendly and could not be bothered to assist..with maps or bus timetable etc. the area itself is poor and very dirty. The room was of good size, however, there was virtually no balcony, even though it was advertised..it measured .three feet X three feet with no lock ...no security ! As for the breakfast...no fans or aircon in the dining area, and the food was non refrigerated..the orange juice was actually hot! A very very basic two slice toaster !! Not good enough at all. On top of this, even though the transfer was confirmed the day before, the driver failed to arrive until one hour late and numerous calls to them

The worst hotel and location that I ever stayed in
Overall, we were very disappointed with the hotel, location and the money that we spent for this trip/holidays. We would never recommend this main Island called Hulhumale to anyone as a holiday destination. The whole city is a building/construction site with so much noise and rubbish laying around. We could not believe where we ended. Hotel staff was not very friendly, could hardly speak any English and therefore, none of our requests could have been handled by their employees. We received hardly any welcome and/or important information regarding our stay in this hotel and the room, in which we supposed to stay, was very basic - no phone, in-room safe was available as advertised online. Definitely, not a 4-star hotel. Would not give this hotel 1 star in our opinion. Beach was close by, but public and also very messy. No swimming/sunbathing allowed anywhere in this city. What type of holiday destination is this? We felt like we were being punished to spent our holidays there in Hulhumale. We did not feel safe in this hotel, as a male, who is/was employed by the hotel entered our room while we were sleeping and gave us a fright. In general, this was the worst place/location we ever stayed in. Never again.

Satisfied stay in Relax Beach Inn
We were 3 person, the hotel allocated a big room with seaview to us, and the price was quite cheap. We had a satisfied stay in this inn. The boss was honest as well, cuz my credit card did not go through for the first time, gave him to swipe for 2nd time. However, I just receive the message from my cell phone that the transaction was unsuccessful. Had told the boss and asked him to swipe for the 3rd time, he honestly told me that it was successful for the 2nd swipe. Later on, when I came back to Singapore and checked with the bank, the transaction for the 2nd was indeed successful. Overall, a satisfying stay.

Avoid this place
Not happy with this hotel at all. Made a reservation weeks in advance of arrival, but when we arrived late at night, we were told hotel was experiencing a power cut, despite seeing lights and other appliances fully working. We booked All Inclusive too, but were told that only breakfast was included. We were moved to a hotel down the road, owned by the same person. Poor service, basic rooms, and completely unsatisfied. Won't stay here again nor will I recomment this place to anyone.

OK, but definitely not a 4* hotel
It is a basic hotel, definitely not 4*, more like 2*. The staff was friendly and the rooms were cleaned every day, but the all inclusive option is not really an all inclusive, the breakfast was very basic, consisting of toasts, butter, jam and egg. If arrived at around 7am we were also lucky to get a sausage. The location is near the beach, but women are not permitted to wear bikini at that beach so with 35 degrees this is definitely a big let down. The building next to the hotel is being built so there was a lot of noise from that. Overall the hotel is ok if you want to stay on a budget basis in Maldives.

Value for money
Hotel location is pretty nice n the view from the room at 2nd floor is just awesome. Hotel staff is very polite n cooperative.Food quality is average. Excellent for short stay. Tip: choose the sea side room as I did, its worth paying some more dollars.

Great hotel but no all inclusive
The All Inclusive is in reality a Full Board since nothing is included outside 3 meals by day. Outside that the hotel is really great. Good place to relaxe directly in front of the public beach (so bikini is prohibited but tolerate). Expedition are good and improve the experience with local people.

Clean, tidy hotel within sight of beach
Clean and tidy hotel within sight of beach but no view from bedroom window. Just a two tone painted green wall. Although basic, the hotel gave a pleasant stay. The staff are helpful but, they do not understand English fully. So, when I asked what time they cleaned the room. They thought I was asking for a room transfer(?). The area is currently being developed. Building work is going on everywhere. Whole new hotel complexes are being constructed. I guess in a year's time that Male will look completely different. It will have lost many of it's open spaces. Motorcycles are driven everywhere. The locals do not wear crash helmets and ride with children sitting on their knees!
