The hotel is the best on the island, just sand foot on the bikini beach. The staff is really friendly and welcoming. Rooms really clean, great airconditioning. The food was also really nice, especially the grilled fish and tuna steak. Looking forward to be back!

We loved everything about our stay here. Beautiful views of the harbor and sunset. Clean and comfortable room. The staff were friendly, helpful and willing to please. A budget hotel that is worth the money.
It is easy to walk around the Island.
In ecvening we made 2 /3 circles around Gulhi Island and afterwards we
tested all restaurants and the best was LAVISTA Cafe & bistro.
They have a tasty food.
There we had the best Tuna Steak in Gulhi.

A very welcoming island and with such friendly locals.
A very welcoming island and with such friendly locals. It is a small island which is not that far from Male city or the airport by speedboat. There are some small restaurants and cafes that visitors can have snacks, drinks, tea and coffee. There are also many shops that sell everything visitors might need. Souvenir shops are also there and there are many items that can be bought at good prices. Cultural events are also there depending on the season and the occasions .

Gulhi island is perfect for tourists on budget.
Gulhi island is perfect for tourists on budget. We didn’t limit ourselves, we went on a couple of boat trips (which cost about 35-70$ per person) and bought whatever we needed (every meal was around 22$-36$), transfers cost around 25-35$ on a speed boat and 2$ on a public transport. All the restaurants, hotels and some shops accept dollars. The only disadvantage of the island, in my opinion, is that especially during low tide, the water in the ocean is knee-deep. Regardless of that the bikini beach is very clean and the corals are beautiful. Also I would suggest bringing fins with you because sometimes the current was really strong and renting them costs 5$.

Nice & cozy small island.
Nice & cozy small island. You can find local & western food over here & they are serving nice coffee over here. Friendly locals is making you feel welcome to the Island. Walking at the beach and swimming in the sea is the 2 common activities over there. Lying on the beach chair & watching sun set is really enjoyable.
Just walking distance to the beautiful beach, the sea & beach is like privately owned by the hotel (but in fact it's belongs to the public). Nice sea breeze and sea weave's sound is like none stop melody, keep on changing but still maintaining certain pattern of melody. Friendly hotel staffs serving you from stepping in the hotel until leaving. Food is nice as I like Maldivian food very much. Hotel room is comfortable. Will definitely stay here when I come to Maldives again.
The hotel is located directly on the bikini beach. You can enjoy your delicious breakfast by seeing the ocean.
Once we arrived at Gulhi Island we were picked up by Anna and Ibrahim. They were so lovely and made our stay really comfortable. Both run the hotel so great. You also can enjoy a really good lunch and dinner. We loved the food Katya made for us our whole stay long.
When we left the Island, Katya accompanied us to the harbour. :)
The room was clean and the hotel was in a great location, but what really made our stay great was Saif.
He met us off the boat with his wheelbarrow.
He was always there to greet us for breakfast with a smile and a positive comment to start the day.
He would always go out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed and showed a real interest in his guests.
He is a credit to your establishment.
3 minutes walk to the beach, welcome drink, amazing helpful and friendly staff. Good breakfast, hotel restaurant with very good food and the lowest prices on the island. Nice views from the rooftop. Rooms clean, with AC. Noise from powerhouse isn't that big problem, we had room closest to the powerhouse plant and balcony situated towards it aswell and during night we slept fine.
Included breakfast and lunch were nice - especially the no-alcohol mojito with lunch! The bed was very comfortable and the air con worked really well. The towels were great, for the bathroom and extras for the beach.
Gulhi is very small. The beach is beautiful. There are enough restaurants to try. It is a quiet place, so bring books and relax in a swing!
The first reason we chose this hotel was its proximity to the water park. Although the water park was closed, we are completely satisfied with the hotel. Great and friendly staff, clean room, best location, and excellent services. What we liked most was the trip to Fullidhoo which was arranged by the hotel. This was an unforgattable experience.
lovely little maldivian-owned hotel with only 4 rooms.
the room was nice, clean spacious, and included a small private terrace.
widia and team were friendly and laid back, the food was nice and included local specialties.
the fantastic location, directly on bikini beach, makes this the top place to stay on gulhi island.
The hotel is really nice, the staff is amazing specially (Alam) made our experience so special, the Hotel lagoon is so nice and its perfect for snorkeling, finally the spa was amazing and I highly recommend to book the second category of overwater villas if you don’t need a pool as you can access the lagoon immediately.
It is close to the beach and has that typical beach homey vibe to it. Nothing fancy. Great if you want that secluded and quiet atmosphere. There is a bikini beach with beach beds and fixed umbrellas. The two guys who manage the hotel is amazing. So friendly and do whatever they can to make sure their guests leave happy.
Staff was always welcoming and ready to help. The island is perfect for a low budget family. You get all the wonders of The Maldives without breaking the bank. Beautiful beach (small) and they offer the trips to do Dolphin viewing, corals and night fishing.
The management team was amazing and made all of the difference. They are very accommodating and helpful. They even paid medical bills at the clinic so we could pay them with a credit card with the hotel bill. They had a restaurant open late for our group
Room was ok, cleaned twice a day. Wifi good even if not very strong everywhere in the hotel. Personnel of hotel very kind, in particular people at reception very willing to help. Hotel is 3 mins or so, by walking, to the beautiful bikini beach
Everything was fine, bikini beach is in 5 minutes from hotel, very good host and personnel, cheerful and helpful all the time. Excursions are available as well. We went to see sharks and for snorkeling. Highly recommended!
the receptionists were lovely. always attentive and willing to help in everything. the hotel was clean and smelled good. well located. The breakfasts at the hotel are very complete and delicious. I will certainly repeat.
Breakfasts were great, also great service of staffs. Hotel is very friendly and all people are helpful. Great beach close to Hotel. Room was clean every day. Transfers and trips were managed perfectly.
The best guest house in Gulhi for budget travelers. Worth every penny. Guest services staff Mr. Shuhail was really helpful and he provided exceptional services during our stay. Thank you Suhail.
Location is perfect near bikini beach. Hotel's Manager Mr. Jalil was very helpful.well behaved. He has organised an amazing private excursion for us . Highly recommend.
Everything, the location, the cleanliness, the details, the customer service. Nothing is better than this in the Maldives. Excursions were very fun too!
