Guest Houses in Ariyaddu

Highly recommend this guesthouse if you like the tranquility of a small local island and not many tourists around, it's owner Haris and his team are really nice and they will make you feel at home, we had a nice time.

Seaside Dhigurah totally met my expectations, room cleaned daily, silent air conditioning, perfect outdoor shower, very comfortable mattresses, Android TV, non-annoying staff, close to the pier and above all away from noise and any smell. A marvel, thanks to all the guys who work daily to keep the standard of the structure high. Bikes, diving mask, fins and towels are provided by the structure on request free of charge. p.s. they prepared me, as a surprise, a dinner by the sea and by candlelight for my birthday with my wife.

Clean, simple and friendly staff

About the island: The island is amazing, it's literally like paradise. Very long bikini beach, not crowded, nice house reef, beautiful sunsets and rises. About the accomodation: we felt very welcomed and they supported us with any request we had. The food was the best in town, props to the cook :) The room was very comfy and clean. Nothing to complain. The location was perfect, because it was between beach and town. We will come back :)

This was my dream vacation, and the guys from this guesthouse added many positive things into it. Islam was very kind and caring. Every day he asked if I was satisfied with everything, if there was anything to improve. My answer was "no, all good, even perfect!". He recommended the best local restaurants, best beaches, etc. Ibrahim and Islam organised my speedboat travel from Malé to the island. Islam met me then and drove to the guesthouse. A range of activities were offered, such as snorkeling (to see whalesharks, mantas and turtles), drone video and photo shooting. My room was clean, cosy and nice. There were tables, bedside table, wardrobe, safe box with the key, large window that served as a door too, cosy double sized bed with white bedsheets. Air conditioning and the ventilator on the ceiling. The room had 2 entrances. The breakfast was included, it was tasty! Guys from the hotel often supplied me with drinking bottled water, almost every day.

Small cozy hotel in the heart of the island 🏝️ Hafeez and Lahiru made our stay super comfortable and were always there to help! We went for both manta and whale shark trips when it was convenient for us and were lucky to encounter these creatures. The hotel is clean and our room was made up everything we were back from the trip! Overall stay and the atmosphere were really welcoming and comfortable, same as the island itself Can’t wait to come back 💛

- Staff was very welcoming, helpful, nice, showing up many times to help with tours,… It gives you a chance to have a glance of the local life - Food (grilled fish) and maldivian breakfast was delicious - nice chill area inside the ‘open’ hotel

It's not our first time in the Maldives, but it was our first time on a local island, and we were fascinated. That's probably the best hotel on this wonderful island. 1 minute from the Bikini beach, clean and spacious rooms, comfortable beds, excellent good air-conditioning! There are two separate air conditioners on each room in the triple room-in the triple room is two separate rooms without a wall between them,but if desired, a curtain or sliding partition can be drawn between the two. In one of them a big bed is present and twin beds in the other one. We had a good view with coconut palms. It was quiet and calm during our stay. And let's not forget the staff - everyone was smiling and helping,from the reception to the cleaning guy! And about the staff in the restaurant, they are simply the best, especially Kuku, who was so fast, smiling and helping that we felt like at home. Food in the restaurant was perfect, tasty, and very well done by the cheff and his team. The breakfast was enougj to give you a good start of a wonderful day exploring the island or the cristal clear water of the sea.The girl at the reception explained us everything we needed to know about the hotel, the island and Maldives and arranged us a tuk tuk to the famous sand bank and it costed only 20$ for us 5 go and back in total!!!! . There is a nice place in front of the hotel between it and the beach where you can sit and enjoy the perfect weather under the lush equatorual vegetation. The island itself is a real paradise with amazing vegetation, smiling, respectful and friendly population and amazing atmosphere! We would definitely go back. Thank you for everything!

This was truly good experience. The hotel is clean, well looking, towels and bedsheets are always clean, food is delicious and fresh, juices is amazing, stuff is friendly and very polite. You will also have free Netflix access there! And the biggest pearl in this hotel is guy who working there, his name is Ripon. You only make a wish... And you will get it! Location is good, like almost in the middle of this small and beautiful island. Me and my wife stay there for 6 nights, and our stay included 3 meals per day and 1 free ride to amazing small island, for half a day, where we can be absolutely alone with ocean, white sand and palm trees. You can also buy different kind of excursions from them, they will absolutely take care of you! I definitely recommend this hotel!

We had the pleasure of spending two unforgettable weeks at RAAKANI this wonderful hotel, and we truly couldn’t have asked for more. From the very beginning, we felt welcome and completely taken care of. The entire staff was incredibly kind, attentive, and always helpful – you can really feel the genuine warmth and dedication in everything they do. Our room was absolutely perfect: spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished, and it came with its own private garden, which was simply stunning – the ideal place to relax and unwind. We felt right at home! One of the most touching moments was the thoughtful surprise arranged for our anniversary – such a sweet gesture that made us feel truly special and showed how much attention is paid to the little things. And the Tours we booked through the hotel were breathtaking – each one well-organized, full of unforgettable sights, and a true highlight of our stay. All in all, we were completely spoiled, felt incredibly comfortable, and enjoyed every single moment. It was a magical experience we will never forget. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team – we’ll definitely be back!
