I'd suggest to list each ingredient in the menu's dishes and maybe plan at least one social night in a week to gather the guests together.

Where do I start!? My stay was AMAZING. The hotel is well equipped and organized, their values and sustainable policies are admirable. Our room was clean, comfortable, spacious and luminous. The activities provided by the hotel were up to our standards. Food was nice as well, staff was chill and well prepared. We enjoyed every minute.

Absolutely loved everything about Luau beach inn! Linda and Abhlo are the perfect hosts. One of the best guesthouses I have started at in Maldives. Rooms are comfy, food is excellent, thanks to whole team... Mike, Basi, Sharuaan, and everyone else. Beautiful bikini beach with clean soft sand, snorkelling excursions, diving is excellent. Will be coming back for sure!

Price of the food a bit on the high side but I guess this applies to all other places as well so you got what you paid for.

Our room facing the sea and we enjoy it very much the view. Staff was very attentive and smile all the time. Breakfast was excellent although they rotate the menu every other day. Beach was awesome and we enjoy our snorkeling trip with Luau Beach Inn as well. Hope to come back again!

Everything, the food at the hotel is tasty, we booked a room with seawiew , high standard ! You get free sun chairs at the beach with parasoll, beautiful beach! You have free water every day, that’s perfect. Everybody working at Luau Beach Inn give you the best service, whenever you need help. We did some great snorkling with the team at the hotel with boat, but if you want snorkel by yourself you can do it on the island.

We had been to different islands and resorts during our 14 days holiday. Luau Beach Inn in Fulidhoo was the most memorable place for us. The staff is amazing and kind! They made us feel like we were appreciated and they were very attentive. We had a hard time saying our goodbyes and will for sure be back. The place is family owned which you can feel. We had many long talks with one of the owners, who shared many stories and anecdotes about the island and marine life. They offer many water sports and have several daily excursion opportunities. They are sustainable in their approach to doing business and they take marine life into account.

People should be aware that it is next to a mosque with regular calls to prayer over a loudspeaker. As long as you know this then you are prepared.

Beautiful setting, friendly helpful staff, spacious comfortable room, excellent food in rooftop restaurant

Our stay at luau has been absolutely beautiful! The property is amazing, the location as well and the food is probably the best on the island! Everyone from the staff was super nice and a pleasure to be with. Can’t wait to be back!

Sometimes you can smell sewage in the shower. At five o'clock you are woken up by a prayer from the loudspeaker. But nothing serious. When you visit Muslim countries, you have to take this into account. It is just a pity that the locals do not respect their island and do not try to clean up the garbage.

nice environment and hotel right on the beach.

Very nice room with balcony and seaview. The breakfast was buffet style during our stay, a reasonable amount of choices and good quality of items. We also decided to have dinner most nights at the restaurant as well as lunch snacks at their cafe, all very good. The staff was very helpful and friendly, they were quick to respond to all our questions. We went on 2 excursions organized by them which were also great. The bikini beach is right next to the hotel and the staff helped us with sunbeds and umbrellas to that one. This was really helpful as we didn't always find any public ones available.

The wonderful sounds of the mosque fill the air 5 times per day. We enjoy this sound, and simply checked prayer times to avoid dining at the same time, due to the minaret being positioned next to the restaurant. Once we got used to the timings, it was no problem for us.

From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome, and we didn’t want to leave at the end of our week’s stay. Our gorgeous sea view room was impeccable and was cleaned everyday. The air con was sweet relief on this hot island, and the Wi-Fi was good. The restaurant on the top floor offers the best dining view on the island and we really can’t praise the whole staff enough. Special thanks to Linda, Basi, Abhlo, Lashan, Kethshan, Mafu, and Fayyaz for going above and beyond to look after us during our stay, making it extra special. We applaud the small eco-friendly touches which are no doubt having a mighty impact on the environment. We can’t wait to return to see the staff and the positive changes they are having, working together with the community on this beautiful local island.

Great location and wonderful manager who made our arrival and checkout seamless, no waiting around required. Also there are many cute chickens and birds around ❤️ . Food in the hotel cafe was fantastic too.

If you’re looking for a luxury property - this isn’t for you. This place requires a higher level of taste. I am so happy that few value this kind of service and hospitality and that it’s not overtly crowded.

Cheerful is one word I would use to describe this property. Welcoming. Feel at home. Small boutique property in an utterly wonderful location. Personalised service levels that are just not possible at large resorts.

Stayed in November 2024

Absolutely nothing.

Linda and staff are exceptionall: From the moment you arrive at the pier, the staff are friendly, engaging and professional. They make you feel like family. Food is great and rooms are comfortable and stylish. Pay a bit extra for an ocean view room, it's worth every cent. Can't recommend highly enough.

We’re not sure if there’s anything we didn’t like about Luau Beach Inn, everything was amazing! We even received a thoughtful souvenir from Fatima to take home, which was such a lovely touch. The Maldivian breakfast was a highlight, and we’re so grateful for the experience. Thanks a lot for making our stay unforgettable!

We absolutely love Luau Beach Inn! This was our second time in Fulidhoo because we’re so fond of the island, and Luau made the experience even better. The room was perfect, comfortable and well-kept. All the staff including Linda and Basit were fantastic and the breakfast on the rooftop, with its beautiful beach view, was a great start to each day. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Breakfasts could be a bit more varied.

The staff was super positive and friendly. I liked that the hotel cares about sustainability. The island is close to Male and the staff will always help arrange a boat transfer if you request it.

Just wish they had a nice pool that overlooked the ocean!

Great little boutique hotel on the best part of the local island. Judging by us walking the whole island and seeing everything, this hotel is probably the best one there. Room was modern and comfy bed. Hotel staff were fantastic. Great island to see Sting Rays and Nurse sharks.

The breakfast was decent, though it could benefit from a greater variety of vegetarian options.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff is both friendly and accommodating. It's located right across from a stunning local beach with turquoise waters. The hotel offers complimentary water bottles and water. It's also the only spot on the island where you can enjoy a proper espresso or cappuccino. The view from the top terrace is breathtaking. The rooms are spacious and feature modern amenities. There's an excellent dive center on-site, offering remarkable snorkeling, as well as trips to sandbanks and uninhabited islands. They provide towels, rent out snorkeling gear, and offer loungers for the bikini beach, which is just a five-minute walk away.

It's hard to find anything at fault, our stay in general was phenomenal. If we had to pick one detail that felt a little less perfect though, it would be the buffet: On some days there was only buffet available due to higher number of guests present (No a la carte menu orders on those days). On the "buffet days" food was also good, but less so than when compared to the days where we could order from the menu. The buffet was also a bit pricey for what it was. To be clear - we very much recommend the hotel restaurant for a la carte menu ordering, that was excellent in every regard and absolutely at a fair price. On buffet days however, it could be an option to explore other restaurants on the island e.g. like Cafe Orzo.

Food from the menu "a la carte" was excellent. Easily best kitchen on the island. The rooms were very clean, bathroom facilities excellent. View from balcony very nice. Beds were very comfortable. There was always fresh drinking water available and everybody gets a complimentary metal bottle to refill, and keep forever even after leaving. That's a really nice touch. Staff was really nice and friendly, always going out of their way to be as helpful as possible, and easy going; the hotel feels like a family business (which I believe it is). WIFI was free and reception was sufficiently strong in the room. Kayaks are available for free for the guests to paddle around the lagoon. There is also a big trampoline in the water for the kids.
