Excellent”

- Room: very clean, spacious, with very comfortable bed, good air conditioning and a mini-fridge, although it was advertised as having a balcony and it was not the case. The shower has hot water. There is a separate building with additional rooms, but some of them smell like mould. - Facilities: very basic. - Breakfast and meals: very basic and quite repetitive (noodles, pasta, fried rice, …), due to limited supplies to the island. Even fruits are brought in from Male. - Location: great within the island. To note that this is an inhabited Maldivian island and not a resort. This means that western style swim suits are authorised only in 1 beach and everybody is expected to dress properly on the street. - Value for money: satisfactory, taking into account that for few additional dollars you can also have all the meals. - Staff: their greatest asset by far. Extremely kind and approachable, available to organise excursions and transfer. Everything is possible.

BEST PLACE, EVER! ”

I absolutely loved Surf Retreat. Their staff met me at the airport & made sure I got on the correct speedboat. They then met me again when the speedboat arrived at the island. My room had a comfy bed, with great air conditioning. Make sure you check out nearby ‘Picnic Island’ when there. Surf Retreat also organised a seaplane back to Male for me. I highly recommmed staying here!
