Very average hotel. If you look for only a few nights stay and can find a good price deal on this hotel then go for it but lower your expectations. Positive was really beautiful house reef and lagoon and very friendly staff (apart from one reception guy). In our eyes this hotel deserves only 2* as it is located in Maldives but completely lacks Maldivian feeling, one star for friendly staff and second for the house reef. Now negatives: - All rooms are quite big but are feeling empty inside, chilling area and a sofa is missing. - Water villas (we had lagoon side - north) have no table on the huge balcony and only huge sun shade umbrella and two sunbeds without option to adjust their angles. Also any sitting chairs are missing on the balconies. With rooms you have to be generally lucky: the south side water bungalows have no access to house reef (there is stone wall built underneath the bridge) so you can only swim from there around all the villas. They also are located at the edge of the reef so you wont enjoy snorkeling there so much as you wont see anything in the deep ocean apart from ocean water... - Beach bungalows from what we have seen have better and worse locations - some of them gets constantly flooded, other have sandbags at their balcony doorsteps, other have no beach just a huge stones, from other you can only access beach by walking in front of your neighbor balcony, some have ok-ish location - AC in the room was not cleaned since ages, was leaking inside the room and was moldy giving us sickness for a few last days of our stay (we set it to 23-24 deg.) - Generally all staff members are very friendly apart from one guy in glasses working at reception (no idea about his name) - he is the front person of the hotel and seems he really doesn't care about his work, rude and unpleasant to talk to, lazy guy who plays on his phone each time you come to see him, also if you want something from him it is always a problem for him, his English is really bad and when you see him you just want to walk away. Rest of workers are friendly and chatty. - Staff is undermanned making you either see waiters running as quick as they can all the time when you try to enjoy your food, or you have to wait nearly 30 minutes for you ordered glass of Cola at the bar - Waiters comes to take your empty plate away when you partner still eats - Waiters comes to get you to sign the "bill" (although you are on AI) when you and your partner still eats - we have often situation they came with the bill to sign it when we were still in the middle of our meal! - Restaurants are serving dinner until 9pm, but if you come late they will almost kick you out at 9:05 pm and you will see a bunch of them running around you to prepare tables for the morning meal already - Beach bar has no beach feeling at all, Lake bar is a joke as it is full of mosquitos from every afternoon. Local mosquitos in Maldives can give you malaria or dengue fever - Inner island lake is completely unneces
