Lovely rooftop pool but limited seating/sun loungers. The restaurant was pretty good. Business orientated hotel but good for an overnight transit stay, if you want to experience Male.

Breakfast was pathetic in terms of choice and quality of food. Rooms are already old and not revamped. Tap knob kept falling off and maintainence did not even bother to upkeep it. Beds are already not in usable condition to have a comfortable sleep.

It’s 3 stars at best
It’s a good option if you have to stay in Male island for a night. The floor is very greasy and the bed feels moist. The overall clean. Fast check in and pick up from airport. Decent selection at breakfast.

The property and staff were lovely. Food at restaurant really good. Unfortunetly our plane was delayed so we got there really late and had to leave early, but I would have loved to seen more of it. The pool looked beautifully lit at night. Service to and from airport was fantastic and staff so helpful.

All the staff were helpful except reservations. We had to make an unexpected cancellation after the first night as we realized we could not access the resorts from the hotel in Male city contrary to what we had thought. Despite all entreaties to charge the standard one night fee only, the reservations team insisted on debiting the entire cost for the 3 day booking. They tossed us back and forth claiming that the travel site refused to grant any accommodation all the while they had the power to apply discretion because we had paid at the hotel on arrival. Up till now they never even deigned to respond to my email.

Service at the pool bar is extremely poor I waited an hour for an iced coffee and had been completely forgotten about. This wasn't sadly the first time as I waited 40 minutes for food also. Considering the nightly cost you expect a higher level of service and not to be ignored. Very disappointed. I had emailed the hotel requesting a pick from the airport and cue to arriving no one was there. I never had an apology or received any reply! Very poor

Handy location with free transfer to the airport. Only stayed there one night but the room was clean for the most part. However there was a power socket hanging of a wall which could be very dangerous if a child stuck their hands into the electrical wires.
