Find the Cheap Ithaafushi Hotels

The marine ecology of the artificial island is not very good, there are fewer fish, and the water is not so thorough. Compared with Conrad Conrad Island under the same group, the overall service is not as good as Conrad Island. It is much worse than Dasiji. It didn't meet the so-called six-star standard of Waldorf Astoria. The advantage is that this hotel is very big, and you can play more with children

The food was poor, especially dinner. Water sports are very expensive, and the commercial atmosphere is strong, and sailors are selling. Not worth the price.

The resort is around 45 minutes from Male airport via seaboat. The water is very clear, and the rooms while not very spacious are decent in terms of cleanliness. The general staff are polite enough. You get snorkelling equipments for free, but do try to get them early as they get rented out fast. You also get life jackets. The place outside our rooms had good sitting area, and the beach itself will take around 20 minutes to tour. Coming to food, we are vegetarians and we did not find anything in the buffet worth having. While we struggled on the first day, our server Simran was very helpful. She helped us connect to the Indian chef Sampoorn, and always helped accommodating our requests. Sampoorn made delicious food for us, one of the best paneer curries we've had anywhere. A big special thanks to Simran and Sampoorn for making our stay pleasant overall. The water was clear and we could see corals and some fishes. The scuba diving point had really pleasant staff, taking their time to give us all the information. The dive itself was very good for beginners, with Pablo being my diver who was helpful. While I could not go very deep, it was a pleasant experience. Only feedback would be that I had spent 77$ for pictures of my dive, and most of my 100 photos were not that great. Was expecting my pictures with some corals and fishes. Hope they improve on that aspect.

One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. Only 25-30 mins journey by speedboat from the airport. Amazing first time in the Maldives. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are spacious and clean. Every day there are free activities you can do like sunset yoga, snorkeling etc. Everything about this hotel is perfect. The only thing is the prices for some extra activities like dolphins trip, snorkeling with sharks etc are quite expensive (around 150$ per person). Alcoholic drinks vary from 10-25$ per glass but their bars have happy hours. Dinner buffet is 90$ per person. We tried the room service food, was quite good. In general, I would recommend this hotel to everyone. You won’t regret staying here.

The hotel is approximately 30 minutes from the Male International Airport and costs a charge. The airport has a special person to pick up, very convenient. The environment on the island is beautiful, the sea is blue-green, and the beach is white and delicate. The rooms are large and well equipped with a reasonable layout. There are several restaurants, especially Thai restaurants. But take a boat for 5 minutes to go to another island. Special thanks to Ctrip's service. When I booked the hotel, I encountered a little episode. Ctrip had an unreasonable communication and coordination, and finally solved the problem. I am very touched! Praise

Super 👍 nothing to say spacious and clean rooms nice and serviceable staff nice and serviceable nice framework I recommend this 100% accommodation We were with our 3 children and the room was sufficiently spacious and comfortable We had the right to a small attention on Valentine's evening with a beautiful rose and a peanut 🧸

Very good hotel, although the room is not big, the surrounding area is under construction (the island is under construction), but it does not affect our family's perfect six days on the island, because the beach and sea view of GULHI Island are so beautiful, dreamy Like Blue, the hotel also has a lot of day trips or half-day trips so you won't waste time in the room at all. It takes only two minutes to walk from the hotel to the beach. You will pass a very beautiful path and a football field. The room is cleaned every day. We all enter the room with bare feet for fear of bringing sand into the room and wasting the hard work of the waiters. Basically Every time you leave the room and go back to the room you will find that the room will be cleaned once. The food in the hotel is also very delicious. You can order from the buffet in the morning and evening. The food is as delicious as the scenery of the island. The waiters at the front desk and the restaurant waiters are always so enthusiastic and help you solve everything. Here, I would like to thank Francis for his warm hospitality from confirming the pick-up before check-in to check-in and making us feel at home. I believe their team will build their due brand ! Compared with the Dhiffushi island behind, our family prefers Gulhi.

The hotel has a perfect location, the best on the island: it is in 10 meters only from the beautiful main entry to the bikini beach. The beach is so big and clean! Umbrellas are for an additional fee but there's no need in them cause you can sit wherever you want under the tree. I had a cosy room with a balcony, on the second floor. In the room, you have everything you need: an air conditioner, a kettle, a fridge, lots of lights, towels etc. Cleaning is upon request. Wifi was good. The staff is extremely friendly and polite, always ready to help, they helped me so many times with different questions, the kindest people!! A team of divers live at the hotel and leads excursions for guests from the whole island. Snorkeling with them was the best experience in my life! I've seen colorful fish, big sharks, dolphins, and even a sea turtle. For breakfast, you have a choice between continental and maldivian breakfasts, I personally loved the last one, it was delicious. Always fresh fruits and juice before breakfast. Sometimes in the evening, the hotel prepares barbecue dinner with fresh fish from the sea and with traditional music, such an authentic experience! There are several restaurants on the island to have dinner, including the hotel restaurant. They're more or less of the same quality and price, liked local food there. Gulhi is very calm and tiny island, just 30 min on the boat from Male island. (The transfer to Gulhi from the airport costs $25.) There were not many tourists on the island, when I stayed. No noise at night at all, so if you're looking for calmness, this is probably the better choice for you than Maafushi. Also it feels safe if you're a female solo traveler. For me, everything was just perfect, loved the place, the food, the beach, the excursions. I think the guesthouse is the best price/quality option on the island. Thanks so much❤️

I stayed 4 nights at this hotel which was enough as my first impression of the room was not what it looked liked online. It was very dated. The storage cabinets had broken off bits of wood and no flowers, fruit or towels wrapped up on bed as picture shows on their website of bed. The bathroom smelt upon arrival with the toilet blocking up twice. Yes I put toilet paper in the toilet first time then was told not to put toilet paper in toilet so didn’t after that but stilled blocked again. The lavender smelling sachet in bathroom was empty on arrival. Bed was hard. Lightbulb above mirror was blown in room. Room safe had key but numbers didn’t work. TV didn’t work. No signal. Reception was presented well. The breakfast was not great. Not much choice and all foods were cold. No heating of baked beans or sausages. The woman in the dining room was rude twice. Could have been more polite and friendly. I only had breakfast twice and it was very little. I could hear the staff out the back in the kitchen clearing their throat very loudly as if going to spit. I also heard this upstairs a few times by staff. I thought was disgusting. The stairs had broken wood and weren’t the safest. The guy who got my baggage when I arrived and also took it to the boat was the Hotels best asset. He was lovely and always had a smile. He was very respectable. It is very noisy there at night so no sleep until midnight as set surrounded by bars and restaurants playing loud music. Garden setting is lovely. Beach is across the road. Though can’t swim there. This hotel needs a refurbishment. The best part was the shower. Good pressure from large shower head. I rate it 3/5 for my stay. Also wasn’t given more loo paper when room was cleaned in day 3. Only cleaned once. Wouldn’t stay again.
