Best Hotels near Foah Malé (Shark and Ray Dive Point), Malé

Overall, our stay was unpleasant. From the time we checked in to the time we checked out. When we entered the hotel they essentially made us feel that we were unwelcomed. No smile, no hello, nothing! I have never experienced this level of hospitality in my lifetime. Room size We had booked a ”Deluxe Double Room with Balcony and Sea View” (booked almost 1.5 months before) and it was supposed to be one of the best rooms in this hotel (2nd best to be precise). The room was tiny and couldn't even accommodate our luggage. Bed size It was supposed to be a ”large double bed” but it was tiny that we couldn't sleep well. We had 5 years old - already mentioned while booking. They could have simply rejected our booking by saying that the bed would not accommodate a kid. Bathroom and accessories It was again very small. There was nothing. No hand towel, soap, toothbrush, or sleepers. There was a shower gel and a shampoo. And some tiny lizards in the bathroom which was scary for my kid to use the washroom. I must mention that one of the staff was helpful in getting rid of one of those lizards we encountered and I had to shoo the rest of them away by myself. Pricing on Booking.com We paid 336$ for two nights on booking dot com and expected better rooms and services but the actual room cost which I got to know at the hotel was only 80$/night which explains why the services were not great. Booking dot com definitely fleeced us. You can directly reach out to the hotel to book the room if you're interested. Also, we had planned to spend two days in the city to explore after spending a few days on a private island. Though one day was enough to explore the city! Overall, it is a 2-star hotel and not recommended for a family. Good for solo travellers for a short stay (not more than a night). I would not recommend this hotel to a couple! The only positives were the sea view from the room and the location.

We had 4 nights 5 days stay at Kurumba Maldives. It was a very nice experience. The staff was good. The food was really very nice. Had good Indian food at Mahal . Specifically to mention “karuna” the girl at mahal was so sweet and cooperative. Breakfast was also very nice variety with few Indian options.Even the photo shoot at the resort was great fun. Very good ferry transfer service to & fro airport. To sum up a very nice n memorable experience at kurumba . Would really suggest.

We stayed here for one night before flying out. It was a very good stay. No frills, just what was needed for a transit stay. The room was clean, amenities were good, the included breakfast was great and the fact that they included one-way airport transport was a bonus. They were also flexible with check-in (possibly a factor being we travelled during non peak months). The one downside, if it matters, is that the property is not beach-facing. Though it's a 2 minute walk away. The locality itself is fabulous. The beach is great, a public park (with skate ramp!) is nearby, and there are several options for restaurants. It's a good budget pick for a hotel for a one-night (or more) stay. I'd certainly stay in Hulhumale again rather than the more crowded Male!

We stayed here for the second time before catching our flight home after a dive trip. It is fine for one night, the room was clean and the air con worked great. This island is man made, so space is at a premium. We booked a twin in the hope that we might have a bit more bed space, but the floor space was not really big enough to have both our dive bags open at the same time. However the staff were absolutely delightful. The rooftop restaurant was really nice and the food and service was great. We had to leave at 5.15 and there was a lovely breakfast spread out with yogurt and juices and fruit beautifully presented. We would not hesitate to stay there again.

The hotel is right next to the beach, gorgeous sea view from the room. The hotel staff Amy, was friendly and ever ready to give the best recommendation for a few hour walk in male, from shopping to where to shop for souvenirs and she also recommended us to take a short ferry to villemale which only cost less than $1 to and fro from Male jetty to the island. Great advice that just keep our time worth staying in Amber beach hotel.

Great hotel! Just next to the beach, the beach is so beautiful, the hotel is very new, the bed is very comfortable, and it is very clean, everything in Maldives is so beautiful, it feels like being in paradise. The breakfast is very delicious and there are many types. The restaurant is elegant and suitable for vacation. Thank you for all team staffs. We are looking forward to come again.

The airport transport was super smooth. The staff received us at the airport soon as we came out of the arrival gate, and within minutes we were escorted to the transfer vehicle with no hassle. It was sufficient a night's rest before we can check-in to our resort the next day. Very satisfied stay overall :)

Worst place I've ever stayed in my life Never stay here, Probably you would be regret I Arrived in the Maldives at 11pm So I was looking for a place to stay nearby where I could just, just sleep. The reviews were good and it didn't seem like a bad place to stay for just sleeping, so I booked it. It's biggest mistake of my life. Before I go to maldive, I emailed to pine lodges for 5 times to request an airport pickup, but other than a response that the pickup would be $25, I never heard back from them to confirm my reservation. On the day of my arrival in the Maldives, I keep inquired about using the airport pickup. But they never reply my email. So I ended up taking a taxi from the airport to the Pine lodge However, when I arrived and checked in, the receptionist said, ”The room is fully sold today, sir.” ***?? It's midnight I heard the room is out I have to go resort to the next morning, But they just keep saying they didn't receive my reservation and maybe It's mistake from management for almost an hour. It was really driving me crazy. After all, they offer me another hostel in similar condition It's perfect nightmare in my first day of maldive Please, Remember my review 몰디브 도착이 현지 시간으로 저녁 11시라 근처에서 정말 잠만 자고 나갈 숙소를 구하다가 Pine Lodge Maldives로 예약했습니다 리뷰도 괜찮고 잠만 자고 나가기에는 나쁘지 않아보이길래 예약한 거였는데 제 인생 최대의 실수였죠 공항 픽업 서비스 요청을 위해 이메일을 5번이나 보냈는데 픽업비용이 25달러라는 답변 이외에는 제대로 된 예약확인 관련 회신이 없었습니다 몰디브 도착당일까지 공항 픽업이용 관련 문의를 했으나 답변이 없었고 결국 공항에서 택시타고 숙소까지 갔네요 근데 숙소 도착하고 체크인하려고 보니 리셉션 데스크 직원이 ”오늘 방 다 나갔는데염, 손님” 와, 익일 아침에 나가봐야하는데 자정까지 예약 접수가 제대로 안된 거 같다고 확인만 근 1시간 넘게 하니 정말 사람 미치겠더군요 진짜 욕나오려던 거 + 피곤한 거 간신히 참고 그럼 이 시간에 어떻게 해야되냐고 물으니 비슷한 컨디션의 다른 숙소로 구해다주겠다고 해서 결국에는 도보로 5분 걸어서 다른 숙소에서 묵었습니다 절대 이 곳에서 묵지 마세요 후회합니다

The sanitation is average, the towels are very old, the service attitude is very good, the air conditioner is cold enough, there are boiled eggs, toast, fruit, and coffee for breakfast, and the tea is generally considered sincere. It takes 19 minutes to go to the airport, which is convenient

So the location is amazing, ocean is very close and all the restaurants nearby. The staff is really helpful it does not matter at what time you do check in or out, because there is always someone to help. Thank you 😇🙏🏻
