A good location for a hassle-free getaway in Guraidhoo, Konut by Thakuru is a guest house surrounded by views of the inner courtyard. The property features a garden, shared lounge and parking on-site among other facilities. With a private beach area, the 4-star guest house has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. The guest house features garden views, a sun terrace and a 24-hour front desk. I’d like to commend Aroo and her brothers and also Hassan for their exceptional hospitality. The place was clean, and the room was just right for two people. The Maldivian food they served was good. I especially appreciated that they could arrange everything for us, from the speedboat airport transfers to excursions and many other activities. We really enjoyed the excursion, especially since it was just the two of us. They were very helpful, friendly, and excellent divers. The bikini beach is only a 7-minute walk away, and it’s a good idea to bring your own beach mat along with plenty of sunscreen. Also, don’t forget mosquito repellent, as there are some mosquitos. A big thank you to them for arranging a small birthday celebration with a cake for my husband—it was such a thoughtful touch. Overall, everything was perfect. Highly recommended—just keep in mind that it’s a local island, so don’t expect luxury.

Situated in Guraidhoo, within a few steps of Guraidhoo Beach, Moodhumaa Inn offers accommodation with air conditioning. The property has city views. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi. Highly recommend this fantastic accommodation. We stayed for almost a week and we absolutely loved it. The owner, Mr Latif, is the most incredibly kind, helpful and well respected man on the island community. The accommodation was impeccable clean, the ensuite equipped with all amenities such as kettle, tea and coffee, beach towels etc. At the reception were lots of albums with a wide variety of excursions, unfortunately due to the bad weather we weren’t able to enjoy any. Every morning we had the delicious Mas huni, the local breakfast, and the fantastic fruit platter. I also got opportunity to spend time with Mr Latif and his family and they are all incredible people. I’m ever so grateful that they showed me the local kindness. We will definitely come back, especially because I ran out of the local fruit Mr Latif gave me as a farewell present.

The employee who attended me during my stay from April 6-8, did it very well, very friendly and helpful from the first moment, they should raise his salary. They even gave me breakfast early since I had to leave early and the owner gave me a glass bottle, the atmosphere was very cozy and I would definitely come back. Thank you for everything.

Zinnia Maafushi provides an indoor pool, as well as air-conditioned accommodation in Maafushi, 200 metres from Bikini Beach. The property features garden views. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. We had the villa to ourselves as we were a big family group. The two staff looking after us were excellent - friendly and helpful in every way. Breakfast and BBQ was delicious. The location was ideal as it was near to the beach and the jetty. The place is very quiet and we had the swimming pool to ourselves. There was also a place for us to watch movies and chill in the evenings. Will definitely stay here again.
