    Rouhan Rouhan, served me well at all times and in all my needs. He made me discover the island and made me love Guraidhou, if I come back another day to Guraidhou, I will come back mainly to visit him and tell me lots of his stories. He speaks good English and can communicate in German

    All things right

    Breakfast is standard, and the house keeper is friendly, they try their best to fulfill your request. The place is strategic, few minutes walk to Bikini beach. The place is quiet, working air conditioner, but the fan is not working thats the only unfortunate, and the shower is acceptable, would be perfect if the pressure of the water can be stronger.

    The downsides are the pressure of the shower water, as its a little weak but acceptable, the wifi is a bit slow but it works and acceptable, the fan is not working but I still sleep well because the air conditioner is cold enough, and if the curtain can cover the lights would be perfect, as the sun rise pretty early and if ure sensitive to lights it might wake u up.

    The hotel was homely and cozy, room and lobby was clean and the beddings were very comfortable. Daily drinking water and laundry service was provided during the stay and the breakfast tasted good. Rohan, who manages the place, was just excellent, took care of everything and helped so much with anything i needed. Really excellent service and hospitality all throughout. Guraidhoo itself is a great location if you're looking for a relaxing and chill trip with good beaches.

    The receptionist is simply very welcoming and helpful, always trying to help in everything possible

    I think the value is high for the quality they offer. The bathroom should be more renovated, it is quite old and the water falls very weakly from the shower.

    100% will stay again. Big thanks to Rohan, who was always on point, who helped me with the luggage, offered me to change the room when the ac went broken (he offered, not i was asking, which is a good sign. BTW they fixed ac on the next day, which is also quite rapid), breakfast was always on time, good service, good level of hospitality. The rooms are also ok for the amount you pay. Location on this island doesn’t matter at all, everything is close. The only thing i would appoint, is the fact that when the guest is asking not to clean the room, usually there is a reason. I am russian, and i don’t have a bank account, which means that i have cash. So i would not expect my room to be cleaned after i asked not to do so. Obviously it’s a rare case, but just so you know. It’s still 10 of 10 as everything was good.

    The staff was incredibly kind. The guy took us on a walk around the island and shared many fascinating facts about the Maldives. He made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. The beds were also very comfortable, which was a big plus. Overall, a great experience

    The only downside was that the bathroom in our room could use a little renovation

    A disaster on the part of the person in charge of reception. We had problems every single day. We booked a stay with breakfast included, but we never received it on time. This was a real issue, as our excursions had strict schedules. On some days, they simply didn’t give us breakfast at all, without any explanation. They claim that toilet paper, soap, and laundry products are included, but that is a LIE. Every day, we had to ask for toilet paper, only to be told there wasn’t any. The "housekeeping every three days" promise is also a lie. After three days, we had to ask for our room to be cleaned, and the receptionist just responded, "Yeah, yeah, everyone asks for the same," but never did it. The bathrooms had a strong dirty smell, and the sheets and towels were full on of brown stains. On top of all that, this man tried to enter our room after we complained to the owner, saying, “Open the door,” while trying to force his way in. Thankfully, we had locked it. Another night, at 10 PM, he locked us out of the guesthouse. We knocked for 15 minutes, but he never opened the door. Another guest had to let us in, and even she was shocked because reception was supposed to be "24 hours." To make things worse, this man followed us three times, asking for money, saying that everyone else gave him money and that we had to do the same. Why? I still don’t understand. We reported all of these issues to the owner, but it was useless. Our stay was extremely uncomfortable. I do not recommend this place. If you're looking for a peaceful stay with the services you paid for, do not go here.

    Up-to-date: there is no Rohan. Another kind guy with Little English knowledge did his best. . I Cleaned my room half way, changed my own towels, no brainier needs to be done when you stay for 10 days, although no room cleaning. Room and comfort fair , as sink hanging of wall, shower ok but weak good air con. I asked for kettle in my room which I got. Breakfast was 1 sausage, 1 egg, 3 slices of bread. But that's what you get for budget stay. No outside key given if you want tk come back late !

    No one to meet me, although he knew when j was coming mssed the boat ,my bad but got the last boat after paying a local taxi driver 20 US dollars (twice the amount), to take me to Male he volunteered to keep my backpack and see me get off ok on boat..he called owner to jet him know I was arriving on the late boat. NO ONE on island to meet me I didn't know where la isha Tropica was ! I also found out the local told the owner I haven't paid anything ! No communication to guide me or to ask if I arrived ok ? Good job I got my wits around me travelling all around the world SOLO! It served a purpose I I enjoyed my holiday island hopping , as I am used to it , getting around beach was lovely. although the guy didn't know times of boats ! I booked my place on the boat on the way back to Male !

    The only thing positive about the place is Rohan. He is a great person and you can feel it. If he wasn't there I'd be super upset about the place but thanks to him I kinda managed with all the negativity. He trying to help always and he even showed me around in the island.

    The worst thing is the internet. Literally there's no internet. The speed is not even 1 Mps. When I even told to the owner she was kinda not responsive. She didn't care at all that I couldn't work over there. The room was terrible. Too many tiles in the room was damaged by the water I guess and it was broken. Shower was terrible as well. Well ok it's a cheap option but the facility shouldn't be bad that much.

    Thank you for your review, Umutcan. Apologies regarding the internet. During your stay we have boosted the internet twice and we have informed the internet provider about the internet issue you have faced during your stay.

    We booked the deluxe room which turned out to be a very basic room but with AC, but what made the stay go from okay to AMAZING is the host: Rohan, his sense of service, availability and kindness turned the trip into a 5* journey. From guiding us through the village, to helping to make laundry, being always present and even making a small presentation for my girlfriend's birthday. I mean, couldn't ask for more. So yes, room is basic but I mean in the Maldives you're barely inside and again, Rohan is such a great addition that I can only be positively surprised.

    Not much pressure nor hot water in the shower.

    Staying in La Isla Tropica was the best experience. Rohan was a really great person who booked all our excursions and gave us a detailed tour of the island. He also booked all the transport jettys for us. The room was clean and shower had an instant geyser. The breakfast was nice. The manager gave us a discount on our stay because of one of my friend who could not come.

    Breakfast was good. The girl in the restaurant was really nice - the best one of all the staff I met in this hotel. The location is OK, since the island is so small nothing is far away from anything. The bed was really comfortable.

    The absence of staff in the hotel. I couldn't find anyone as I arrived to check in and had to look and ask around for quite a while. Power failure for quite a while. A hazzle to pay with credit card. Cockroaches in the hotel.
