Hotels in the Maldives

Very friendly staff and owners, always greeting us with a smile and catering to our needs. The hotel is brand new and has many nice details, for example, every night the tables were set up on the beach so you could have a romantic dinner. Also, the beach is beautiful and amazing for snorkeling. Almost no tourists on the island so it truly felt like a private get-away. Highly highly reccomend going here - the experience is much better than the classic resorts. We hope to come back!

The bed and the pillows were the best and comfiest that we had in the all Maldives. The property it’s exactly as they shown in the photos. Everything clean and tidy. You have also a nice terrace to practice yoga or to read a book and chill after a sunny and hot day at the beach. They welcomed you with fresh coconuts wich is a really nice gesture. The breakfast was so complete. Different options to choose plus a lot of spreads, fruits, coffee, tea and a fresh juice of the day. They also have the filter for the water at the reception wich is really good to fill your bottles all the time. The owner of the place was really present, and welcoming us so good. They pick u up for the port when you arrive and also when you leave. Don’t hesitate to be in touch with them to arrange the transfers between the islands if you need it. Also, absolutely recommend to rent a bike to explore the island.

We had a very enjoyable and comfortable stay at Sky View. We felt very welcome from the beginning. Areef met us at the ferry, walked us over to the place, and gave us a welcome drink. He then showed us around the island and made some recommendations for where to eat, swim, and snorkel. He really understands how to take great care of you while also giving you space, which we appreciated. He also fulfilled our only two requests: 1) we asked for and received a Maldivian breakfast instead of the continental breakfast that he planned to serve us; and 2) we were able to change from a room without a window to a room with a window. (Perhaps you won't be able to get/do that during high season, but we stayed there during low season.) The wifi worked very well (but wasn't perfect, as per usual in the Maldives). We booked a whale shark snorkeling tour on our last day and were thankful that Areef worked hard to make sure we spotted several of the amazing animals (as well as some dolphins). The outdoor seating area is very relaxing. You can borrow snorkeling gear for free. We stayed 4 nights and easily could have stayed longer (mostly thanks to Areef)!

Of all the travels that we have done and all the hotels that we have stayed in so far, we have never experienced such an attentive host, for all the requests, be it our choice of breakfast be it arranging water sports or anything else the host went above and beyond to ensure we have a pleasant stay throughout, it is also as a very budget friendly island with all facilities available.Highly recommended for any families planning to visit Maldives to visit Gaafaru and stay in Futtaru Sands.

The location is perfect, you can see the whole beauty of nature just in few minutes of walking, blue lagoon is amazing, the staff is great, the chef is very good, the food and coffee is gorgeous. I would like to come back.

Everything! Staff, chef/food, cleanliness, help with activities, etc, etc

My wife and I recently stayed at Ecoboo Hotel for our honeymoon, and it was an incredible experience! Right from the start, we were treated to exceptional service. After arriving on the island, we were warmly greeted by the hotel manager. As a welcome, we received delicious drinks and personalized glass water bottles, which was a lovely touch! 😊One of the standout features of Ecoboo is its sustainable approach to water sourcing, as they produce their own water on-site. Our stay was truly unforgettable, with delicious food and exceptionally friendly staff. Every day, there were exciting excursions available for us to enjoy.The island itself is stunning, home to fascinating wildlife such as bats, herons, and eagles. At night, sharks come close to the shore, adding to the unique experience. The hotel’s style and atmosphere are both unique and captivating.We highly recommend Ecoboo Hotel for anyone seeking a memorable and delightful stay in the Maldives! 😊

Isla Retreat is a cozy hotel that truly feels like a home away from home. Beautifully designed rooms with comfy beds. It’s the most perfect spot to relax and enjoy the peaceful island vibes. The staff were incredibly helpful and genuinely dedicated to making our stay comfortable. Especially Riddhi, thanks a lot!
