The staff tried their very best to make our stay unforgettable, from the pick up at the airport to daily housekeeping and service throughout our vacation. It's easy to find the pick up at the airport and the reception is always ready to help. The villas on the sea offer an amazing view and everyday there's a new activity to do. You can book activities and restaurants via a dedicated app as well as a pick up to get around the resort. The facilities are clean and well furbished and the staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Would recommend this hotel for anyone looking at going to Maldives

The Receptionist was kind enough to provide me a late check out when I didn’t asked for it. Thank you. The food for in room dining wasn’t as I hoped it to be. Perhaps, if you would like, walk next block there is a shellbeans they serve a bit better food. The steak was dry, and overcooked, majority of the time i had to spit it out it wasn’t really edible for me but I appreciate it. I like the taste of the mashed potatoes and the rest in the plate, it was different but good. There is some strong smell from the bath room, i guess thats the reason why you put those moth balls. I thought that moth balls is supposed to be for cockroaches. Well, regardless it wasn't pleasant to see that its stuck in the bathroom drainage.

I checked Ctrip app for months to find a suitable resort for my honeymoon, and luckily I chose SO! It's our first time to visit Maldives, yet the resort staff made everything convenient for us.
Before we started the journey, the staff contacted us through email to inform us of the transport details.
We were picked up at Velana International Airport by the staff members of SO. The transfer by speedboat had amazing seaviews! We enjoyed the view. It only took 15min to get to the island.
On the first night, we were welcomed with delicious dessert, fruits and champagne. Drinking champagne in the spacious water villa really reminded me of romantic movie scenes. We slept well with the peaceful sound of waves.
The next morning, and every morning thereafter on the island, we tried different food at The Citronella Club. The waiters are patient and nice, bringing what we needed timely.
Not only the private swimming pool in each room is clear, but also the public swimming pool is clean and cozy. I enjoyed swimming there every day, despite the rain.
The only pity during our vacation is the bad weather. Being unaware of the local climate, we came in the rainy season. It almost rained every day! One day the wind got so strong and overwhelming that my newly bought drone fell to the ocean. I was so sad that I cried on the beach. Our butler Khim offered help and asked the security members to search for it. Although my device wasn't found, I appreciate your kind favor. That's the best hotel service I have ever had, after years of overseas travels!
And on the last day of our journey, there was a storm all day. I told the butler that I was afraid we might feel dizzy if taking a boat in such a terrible weather. She comforted me and asked a staff member to give us seasick pills. The staff sent them immediately and told us how to use. They helped us to pick and deliver the luggages, so we had nothing to worry about. The seasick pills worked and we were comfortable throughout the trip.
After taking the speedboat to the airport, a staff picked our luggages and accompanied us all the way to the check-in counter. I never imagined a hotel service could be so detailed! We don't bother checking out the schedule. We just need to relax and enjoy our day!
We look forward to coming again when the weather is better. Thanks to SO/ Maldives, I had sweet memories here!

as the most expensive hotel in male it could have been better. we travel every year to maldives so was expecting much better. yes, the room was much bigger than our usual room but it was so dirty. one towel had dried stains on it and there was only 1 pair of slippers. the bed sheets didnt look changed as it was all creased up and there was dust every where as if someone just left and it hadnt been cleaned yet. For the price of HKD2500 i expected it clean at least. Breakfast was ok but the service of the chef and staff there were excellent. thankfully the free transfer there and back to the airport the next day was seamless. I would give it another chance for improvement next year.

Going to Maldives for vacation, I flew directly to Male Airport on the first day.
I chose this hotel as a transition hotel.
You need to email the hotel in advance to inform the flight information, and they will arrange a pick-up.
The hotel room is not big, but it is relatively clean and the service is OK.
But the environment, the environment is very... It should be similar to a church opposite. There will be activities at 5 o'clock on Saturday morning. I don't know if it is a worship service or something. There will be loud singing once at 5 o'clock, and then once at 5:30. The sound is very loud and it is impossible to fall asleep.

I booked the hotel for one night before I transit to the resort next day as this hotel is close to the airport. My family was assigned the first floor and the room’s window and balcony are blocked by the buildings surrounding it with bad smell. I can only see pipes and AC compressor through the window against the wall. What makes worse is the the super loud noise of the aircon and the the compressor which is impossible to make ppl fall asleep. I have to use ear plugs but still too loud to sleep.
The staff are friendly but the food is average compared to USD $200 per night we paid. It offers convenient transportation services with reasonable charge.

MMahdiMNWe first stayed at H78 Hotel eight years ago during our initial visit to the Maldives, and it left us with such wonderful memories that we decided to return. I’m thrilled to say that, even after all these years, H78 has not only maintained its charm but exceeded our expectations!
The staff are outstanding—their professionalism and warmth rival those of the high-end 5-star private resorts we’ve visited, yet H78 offers incredible value for the price. From check-in to check-out, the service was impeccable, making us feel truly welcomed.
Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with a cozy bed that ensured a restful sleep after long days of exploring. The breakfast was delicious, offering a of tasty options to start the day right.
H78 holds a special place in our hearts, and we will absolutely choose to stay here again on our next trip to the Maldives. If you’re looking for a fantastic hotel with top-notch service, comfort, and affordability, look no further than H78!

HHungerfortheJourneyAs I arrived in Male in the evening and boat transfer to the island was in the morning, I needed a place to stsy for the night.
Hotel Lonuveli was very prompt in replying to email regarding transfer from and to Male airport. A representative was waiting at arrivals with hotel sign. In the morning at the appointed time the car was there to transport back to the airport for boat transfer.
Breakfast was simple and tasty, easy start to first morning in the Maldives.
Overall a good start to holiday in the Maldives, no worries about transportation.

DDaveybuoyWas a very nice hotel. Clean. Looks like some parts are still being sorted.
Good location. Near restaurant and shops.
They have a lift…
Bathroom was massive. Bedroom nice.
Transfer perfect; but could be clearer which desk at airport to go to.
A few tips:
A bin is needed in the bathroom
Tea and coffee sachets would be a nice gesture in the room, next to the kettle, you have the tray there for these but none was available.
Towel was torn.
Minimal complaints. Not even a complaint.
I would stay here again.

KKukukuiThere is no high requirement for Hu Xuan Male Transition Hotel. When this is the cleanest at the same price, it looks like the cleanest. It takes about 15 minutes to get to the hotel by taxi. Later, I learned that the hotel has a pick-up service. It is the inaccurate message on the XC platform. The lobby is relatively simple. The room is still very clean and hygienic. The bakery across the road has been open until late. I bought bread and tasted good.

FFebrattynellaJust a night stay before I take my flight back home. Location is beautiful especially their roof top area, beautiful flowers with amazing view. Perfect for dinner date!
Wifi is fast but you will be disconnected in the middle of the night and would have to go to the reception again to get another wifi password the next day which i find troublesome. Why can’t guests just stay connected until the end of their stay.
Breakfast was a buffet style but not so much selection. I was told by the reception 6:30am to 10:30am for breakfast and i got there at 7am but restaurant said its 7:30am to 10:30am. What’s going on guys?
Mattress are old and hard. 🥺
Anyway the hotel staff who showed me my room is really friendly but i forgot his name. Also to the hotel staff at the restaurant who helped me with my luggage after i arrived thanks a lot!
They were Just helpful on the first day.
Am i going to check in here again? Maybe not. But i would definitely eat at their roof top bar again!!

ルルームこきみThe room was good. Very clean and comfortable. The shower drained well. The sheets and bed were OK. The problem was that the shower water temperature was not stable and there was no hook for the shower head, so I couldn't wash my head with both hands. The hot water sometimes came out and sometimes didn't depending on the timing. It would be helpful if they provided a service such as an adapter for overseas electrical plugs. The biggest problem was the attitude of the staff! Very bad. There was no support for carrying luggage, and when I asked, they just ran away. The man at the front desk did not think that his job was to serve customers. Communication would have gone well if he had explained things slowly and calmly, but he got angry and confrontational, his language was rough, and it was extremely unpleasant. It is very important to improve for your sake. I think they should receive hospitality training.
