Excellent hospitality!”
We booked one night stay because our flight arrived Male in late evening, we requested their free airport transfer. The P.I.C show up right after we finished buying our sim card and change our money, in which did not keep us waiting for few hours just like other common reviews from travelers to Maldives. Warm greetings and welcoming from hotel staffs once we arrived to Lonuveli, so sweet. View from room is breathtaking! Simple buffet breakfast is served, i think is nice. Regarding the cleanliness, one bed bug was accidentally found on our bed sheet. Their toilet unable to flush on the next morning before we left, abit disappointed on this, perhaps due to lower level users did not use the toilet properly?! Despite small problems occurs, in overall, Hotel Lonuveli is quite good and worth to stay.

First Stop in Maldives”
We went to Maldives for our honeymoon. At the airport, we were fetched by the hotel's provided transportation ( for free-roundtrip). The trip from the airport to the hotel just took us 10 mins. Staff at the hotel were friendly and helped us get settled in. Amongst the staff were 2 fellow Filipinos ( Josephine and Raymond) and a local named Babu who made sure our check-in at the hotel went smoothly. Raymond, the hotel manager booked our whole day trip the next day with a local tour guide named Ramon. It was 80 USD per person which includes lunch at the sand bank, dolphin watching, snorkeling and view of sunset . The trip and the price was worth it .The tour guide did good job in taking care of us the entire trip. Only 4 people were aboard the boat . We all felt like VIPs. We weren't able to consume the 2 days in Lonuveli since Raymond made sure we were booked for the earliest sea plane flight the next day to our resort so that we could enjoy our stay there to the fullest. 😁😁😁😁

Dear Katherine, Thank You for the awesome review. We are pleased to know that you loved your stay with us. Thank You for staying with us. Best Regards.
Right choice of stay”
We are taking seaplane on the next day. Staying close to MALE airport will be very convenient. The hotel located 10-15min away from airport and provides free airport transfer, staff will be waiting for u. With reasonable price, service was great . Room was fine and clean. Staff will help you with luggage and bringing up to ur room (no lift). They do have packages including snorkellin, fishing, BBQ and etc for long stay. Down part was Breakfast, could be made better (perhaps with scramble eggs/baked beans/button mushrooms/etc). Or focused on Maldivian cuisine.

Nice place😄”
Hotel Lonuveli is a good place to stay in Hulhumale. Free airport transfer is a plus point. The chef is kind enough to prepare late dinner for me. The staff are cool and accomodating. The driver and the operation manager welcome us warmly when we arrive at Male. Til next time👍🏻

Great staffs and services..”
We stayed one night at this hotel prior to our sea plan transfer to the island resort the next morning. This hotel is very clean. Good beach front location and close to both airport and ferry terminal to Male city. The staffs are service oriented and made every effort to successfully deliver an item that we forgot at the hotel. Keep up the good work and would certainly return on our next round to Maldives again!

Thank you!”
All was great - they upgraded our room! Recommend to all who are staying for transit to another island resort. The airport transfer is all what you need and this hotel provide it in your booking. The staff in Lonuveli took care of the transfer very well even checking the seaplane timing for you and make early breakfast for you if you are leaving early the next morning!

Highly recommended hotel!!!”
We stayed here for two nights prior to our vacation island, from the minute we landed at the airport to the time we departed, the service is the best we can asked for. Our friend left some personal belongings at the hotel after we were transit to the airport to fly to the island, we called and Raymond -the manager helped us by delivering the items to the airport prior to our flight. The appreciatio n was more than words can expressed. The location of this hotel is a little bit isolated from the city but great for the beach lovers as it is located in front if the beach. Food stores are nearby. Great restaurant within the hotel ad well as block away. Love the staff and breakfast in the morning. Will definitely come back and highly recommend this hotel to all!!!. Best value for the price.

Good for overnight stays in Hulhumale”
We were given a clean, cozy room with a mini fridge. Very conveniently located at a section of Hulhumale with a lot of restaurants, a few money exchangers and many convenience stores within walking distance from the hotel. There's even a stretch of beach for those who want beachside dinners or to dip their toes in the water. The hotel is located just a few minutes drive from the airport, which makes it perfect for those taking late night flights and just want a short airport transfer (airport transfer came with the room by the way). Staff were very friendly and helpful, especially when we requested arrangements to be made for late check out. They even picked us up from the airport on very short notice (thanks to miscommunication on our island resort's end). Porters were very helpful in bringing our bags to our rooms and vice versa. Buffet spread for breakfast was good. Would definitely stay here again the next time we are in Maldives.

Great hotel on the beach and short trip from airport”
If you arrive late to Male and have to stay in Hulhumale for a night, this is a great place! The beach is right across the street, they have a buffet dinner for USD$10, breakfast I think was optionally included and was good enough, and they have transportation to and from airport as well as ferry. Staff was super nice and there is a rooftop restaurant at one of the neighboring hotels that's a great place to have a late night dinner.

Value for money”
Pro: 1) Huge room and bath, basic toiletries, lots of plug points. 2) Staff - friendly, good service - show you around the room 3) Seaview room with balcony, fantastic view 4) Free airport transfer - 10mins fr airport 5) Beach opposite road wt water sports Con: 1) Hotel with no lift but staff will bring your luggage up 2) Nothing around hotel, no convenient stores, eateries or etc. 3) Airport pick up was 1.5hr late, have to call hotel although has been confirmed earlier 4) Food is terrible - Our dinner served in room, it was late and we were tired. Food took an hour to arrive, have to call to check with kitchen. Medium to well beef steak, comes black like charcoal, mash potatoes tasteless. Fish and chips - the fish was dark brown, fries were hard. Everything seems overcooked. 5) Buffet breakfast not much selection and almost no refill - guest have to remind for every refill and waited for it to cook upon request. This applies to cutleries, plates, milk and etc ..

Clean room”
This hotel is value for money. Good choice to stay overnight before your next transfer to resort if you arriving late at Male. Airport transfer is free for two ways and pick up time was on time and well arranged. Hotel staffs are helpful and overall experience was satisfactory to good.

Simple yet complete and convenient”
We stayed in Hotel Lonuveli overnight during our transit from Malé to Koodoo. Even before arrival, hotel staff informed us through email of arrival/departure arrangements. Hotel is clean and have the basic necessities you need for a comfortable stay. We were also welcomed by the pleasant and courteous team headed by Joe. We really enjoyed our stay and we recommend this place to anyone visiting Maldives.

Very good for value, and close to airport”
We stayed here on 11th, June for 1 night before go to resort. This hotel is near airport (8-9 minutes from airport arrival site), and free pick-up service add more value to choose this hotel. All staff are kind enough, and they sent us to airport early in next day morning(at 5:20 AM) enough to take first sea airplane to resort. We didn't take breakfast because of early departure, but the dining place at lobby looked clean. The only problem is bathroom. dirty used water of bath tub was removed too slowly, and the location of tap of bath tub was incorrect so much of water from tap couldn't fill in tub. Good choice to stay 1 night before go to resort or return to home. If I visit Maldive again and have to stay 1 night before go to resort, I will try to book here again.

Decent hotel for an overnight stay”
This was a good hotel for an overnight stay. Transfers to and from airport was included. We were greeted with fresh jucie upon arrival and the staff were really friendly and helpful. They helped to contact our resort as they haven't informed us of our speedboat transfer time. They were also kind enough to allow us to have breakfast earlier as the ride to airport was realy early. Breakfast was decent - the fried rice was really good. The bed was very comfortable too. There is no elevator in the hotel but the staff will help bring your luggage up. They were considerate and arranged for my elderly parents to have a first floor room. We would be glad to come back if we are to go there again. Good value for money.

Average”
I wouldn't recommend Lonuveli Hotel if you were staying longer than 1 night. We booked their most expensive room with balcony on top floor thinking that we might get to enjoy the view but the balcony was so swamped with flies that we had to keep the balcony door closed. As the hotel has no lift, so we climbed up and down 3 flights of steps for nothing. Could have just paid for a cheaper room on 1st floor. We thought it was the area but when we went for dinner next door hotel restaurant top floor, there weren't any flies. We also had no hot water in our shower. I would recommend this hotel if you were just staying the night to catch your seaplane early next morning as it is quite cheap.They provide free airport transfer both ways. Staff are friendly and helpful, we were grateful for their help to move our luggage up and down.
