Great location on the beach! Also, the staff were hardworking and supportive.

The shower hot water was salty and guests from other accommodation used the outdoor facilities more, not allowing Batuta paying guests to use them.

Ok, I'm going to address the improvements this hotel has done based on all the negative things I've seen in the reviews. First I will say that I have lived in Oman for 14 years, so I'm used to the common building standards of the region (especially in regard to bathroom type) and the challenges posed by high humidity. Here goes.... 1. The breakfasts were varied in some way every day, and we requested our eggs made different ways also. 2. We found no mold in our room. 3. The payment when off without a hitch with no overcharging, room-switching, or lack of awareness of said payment on arrival. 4. There were plenty of sun beds. We were always able to snag a couple at the beginning of the day German-style with our towels. 5. The staff were all helpful, from excursion arrangement to cash exchange (dollars to rufiya really helped one employee out). 6. Our windows had locks, and the aircon worked fine. 7. The bed had a nice duvet with a fluffy comforter inside. 8. There weren't umbrellas, but we prefer being under all the trees in front anyway. Better shade. 9. There were soaps and toilet paper on arrival. The room had even been cooled off with the aircon. 10. Reading about communication issues, I contacted them via WhatsApp (from their website) to be sure we would have a ride when we got off the boat. No trouble there. 11. We booked a room with a double bed and a sea view, and we got that room. The room next door to us, though, had two twins pushed together, so we would have been less happy in that room. 12. The shower was fine once you learned how to work it. There's a cold one for rinsing off, and there's one attached to a small water heater; we learned to adjust that heater's dial to the heat level we wanted about halfway through our stay. We really could have just asked.... 13. Our room was cleaned daily, and the towels changed.

Nothing. We wanted an affordable Maldives vacation on the beach with a sea view, and this hotel delivered. The faults mentioned in previous reviews were almost all addressed by the time we got there. We were happy enough, already used to issues like limited wifi and ever-present construction sites. We will be back. One tiny issue: if you eat at their restaurant, paying in US dollars costs you less than paying in MVR. None of the other restaurants nearby did that. The food was good, though, and we just used our card when that issue became apparent. It is worth noting that we got the best room there, probably. So just be sure what you're booking.

Excellent location right on the beach. Also nice to have breakfast on the beach

Rooms downstairs are not great - we had a view of a wall and the the stairs to go upstairs, Upstairs rooms are probably OK.

The service and breakfast was top of the line

everything was great rooms can use a bit of updating but they make up for that with phenomenal service

We had a breathtaking view from our sea view room. Staff memebers & owner were welcoming and helpful. Great sunbeds available for guests on the beach, right at your doorstep is the ocean and many water activities. We booked the turtle snorkel through them which was great.

A bit outdated building and rooms. It’s hard to keep damp out when it’s so close to the ocean, it’s understandable… but overall it was clean.

Clean place to stay on the beach, amazing location! Everything was really convenient from taking the boat from the airport to being met by a driver who drops you off at the hotel. Comfortable bed!

A shower curtain would have been nice to contain the water in the shower area. There is also a construction site next doors of a new building so it makes noise during daytime hours on weekdays, but that should disappear once the building is complete.

The hotel is very well located at the bikini beach ⛱️. Excellent for snorkeling 😊. The staff were very helpful. The hotel is in need of some TLC, it looks rundown. The dining area is not too nice which is a shame because the location and views are truly fantastic. The room was very small but had everything we needed. If they work a bit in improving the communal areas the place will be amazing!!!

Love it, directly at the Beach. Love to have Breakfast @the Beach, Pick up from the Airport worked out really well, helpful stuff, all together good vibe there. Would go there again.

My room was next to the kitchen with a little smell and noise in the morning, but with ear plugs no Problem. Also they offer me an other room in the second house they have.

The location and the view was amazing, nice staff, free transfer from ferry :) We got also fresh foods for breakfast

The bathroom was a bit small and the water from the tap was salty. Also the room was not good soundproofed so it was a bit loud from the people of the room next to us... Prices at the restaurant and for the breakfast are too high

Really good location right on the beach front and excellent value for money. Room was clean and spacious. You can watch the sunrise right outside the door

There is a new hotel being built right beside it at the moment which did mean there was some noise during the day. Not a huge issue and there is plenty of space further down the beach if you want to escape the noise.
