Reviews of Fulidhoo Hathaa Retreat

Nice location , clean and chill

Very friendly staff, greeted us at the port and dropped us off on the day we departed. Staff provided breakfast in the morning which was nice. They also give us local recommendations for the island. Rooms were basic but clean and tidy.

Very pleasant experience.

The hotel's location is very convenient, close to the dock, and the breakfast provided every day is different, especially delicious. The room is very large, with two beds. The hotel's service staff work carefully and conscientiously, and the facilities are fully equipped. Shofike. This staff member is excellent and provides good service

Everything!

Nothing!

They welcome us and treat us very well! Also every day they change the breakfast so we could eat different things. The tour guide took amazing videos of us.

The room was very clean and the breakfast was good. Location was good too, but the island it’s so small that wherever you are staying the beach its just 2 steps away. The also have coffee and water accesible all day. They pick you up from port and drop you off when you depart. The staff was very friendly and always eager to help, and chat with you, we really felt at home here. The room has a small fridge so you can cool your water. And there are furniture and benches for you to place all your staff nicely. Internet was algo good. The island has a couple of places where you can have lunch and dinner, and the price is good value. For the value we paid this place was gold.

We stayed in room 5, and the fan has no speeds, it’s just running on the fastest and it was too much for us. All the rooms have AC, it’s just that we rather used a fan as we do not like AC’s. Apart from that everything was great.

The hotel was clean with a huge room, super comfortable bed and pillows, and excellent air conditioning. Staff, especially Shofike, was very helpful. Breakfast was delicious, and there were cute cats hanging around outside which added to the charm. They also offer well-priced activities like feeding stingrays (9am–11am), excursion trips, and boat transfers. There’s a nice chilling area with chairs and shade to relax. Wifi connection is okay.

Some downsides: they seem short on staff, so you’ll need to request things like blankets or room cleaning (which isn’t done daily unless asked). The dining/common area has a microwave, but staff needs to assist if you want to use it—it’d be more convenient if guests could access it freely.

Great place Beautiful & Clean Very friendly staff member Clean & bright

Rooms were very clean. Helpful staff. Definitely will come to Fulidhoo again!

Nothing!

You dont get to see the sea from your hotel, but it is just a few steps away. But from the first minute i stepped on the island there was a hotel staff member who picked me up, took my backpack and led me to the hotel. After a welcome drink I was provided with the room keys and short explanation how everything works. Buffet breakfast is nice even with fruit and cakes and they alter it every day. Hotel also provides nice snorchelling excursions.

Wonderful stay! The staff was kind and always ready to help. A relaxing and memorable experience.

big comfortable room. good wifi. Quiet location.

The breakfast was very good, homemade with excellent local products. The presence of air conditioning in the room. The 24/7 availability of the two guys, Shofike and the other one whose name I can't remember. They helped us a lot, especially when we arrived and when we left, taking us to the jetty for Malè at 6:30 AM.

I feel sorry to write this review because the two guys running this place deserve a 10+ for their effort, but reviews are here to help travelers book the right place to stay, and this place is a humble and basic one, which does not deserve more than a 5. I didn't book this place because it was cheap – it wasn't. I booked it because of the reviews, which I now really can't understand after being here. The property is very humble, and I don’t have an issue with that, but the photos are misleading and give false expectations to those who book. It seemed like I had booked a room with a balcony, but all the rooms are on the ground floor and open onto an inner garden. If you want some privacy, you need to keep the curtains closed, which means there’s never any natural light in the room. I am used to showering with very hot water, even when it’s 30°C outside. The water is warm, but it never gets truly hot. I went scuba diving and came back cold, and not being able to take a piping hot shower was unpleasant. You’d better hope it doesn’t rain during the night. I don’t know what material the roof is made of, but it sounded like there was an incredible storm. The noise was absurd! I went outside to check, and it was quieter—it was just normal rain 😅. I didn’t sleep for two nights because of the racket. The towels (I had read a review from a year ago about this) were stained. Clean, yes, but if you’re paying €440 for four nights, those towels shouldn’t be there 😅. For practically the same price and less, I could have stayed in a proper hotel and not in a place like this. The photos and reviews tricked me! Again, I could have given a 10 like others, but that wouldn’t be an honest evaluation. If you want to run a business like this, you need to meet the standards to justify charging nearly the same as other properties.

The stuff was friendly and welcoming, and food was delicious. They also offer dinner options, along with exciting excursions that include snorkeling and rental for masks and fins. Higly recommended, we can't wait to return!

Very friendly staff

Staff is very Nice and helpful, very big room and very nice terrace, very good internet to work as well
