Not worth the money. Run down old resort from the70's. No upgrades have been done. Very pricey compared to standard.Food is below average,nothing fancy.Nice sandbank and lagoon on south side and nice gardens.Mainly Russian tourists there.

Good value for Maldives & lots of marine life
Casual & relaxed atmosphere; you have to take a seaplane transfer & see the islands from the air; there were literally thousands of fish and other marine life right on the doorstep so you could have a
6.7
Reasonable value for money for the Maldives resorts. Not a five-star resort but relaxed and comfortable. Excellent snorkelling right off the jetty, so it was really easy even for novices.

Chilled out place to relax and recommended
great location lovely relaxing beach and first class setup with excellent acomadation
9.3
A really nice clean calm and friendly resort ticks all the box's for value and just does what it says on the tin!!
if your looking for 5 star and stiff and starchy then this is not for you but then this is probably the best value resort in the Maldive's and great beach snorkling dive sun bathin and sensible eating and chilaxing then book on."nice cocktails but booze is a bit pricey...
varied customers from all over globe i would say nice and casual. excellent little spa run by two great girls who have been there a long time and no the ropes "a proper little family atomsphere amongs the staff"
no complaints at all but real fine dining fan's beware its just good and honest not fancy...not a lot to do proper relax ville.
Restaurant Tip:
try for full board deals and offers on agoda with sea palne transfer included important the food is just a big varried buffet but the off buffet menu is very limited so if your going on holiday to eat yourself silly and looking for fine dining look elsewere with fullboard at the right price you dont feel guilty if you skip a meal but there are three sittings a day and very varried choices there is something for everyone...

Excellent location with abundant snorkelling
Environment, beach, water
7.7
The hotel location was beautiful and there was plenty of swimming/snorting right around the island that the hotel is on.
We arrived at the hotel from a sea plane - need to arrive by 4pm in Male otherwise you have to wait for the next day. After landing, we were starved a drink and lunch while we filled in our forms then started our vacation. The island was beautiful. Lots of fish and coral. The white sandy beaches were amazing.
The meal plan was "full board" which means basically buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner. The food was not bad - not 5 stars but good enough for a vacation.
Plus and minus at the same time is the lack of a tv in the rooms and no wireless in the rooms either.
The negatives were that the hotel was cheap inside - a little old but clean. The owners seem to be cheap. You have to buy all drinks (yes including water for 3.80) after breakfast. Have to request hair driers, kettles, etc.. As none in your room. No tv in the room ether. The gym costs 5$ per use as has terrible opening times- but the amount of equipment make it almost useless anyway. Internet access was pretty terrible. Staff mostly understands English but not well. Most of the time they forgot what we had asked for.
Anyway, I would go back still - even though the plane ride was choppy.
Hotel Feature Tip:
Bring your snorkel, suntan lotion, hats and everything you need. Hotel prices are a little pricy.
Male doesn't allow liquor so don't bother packing it.
