Reviews of Maladiwa Beach & Spa

Nice restaurant with good food, the garden also and very good location

Funny breakfast they serve only with one boiled egg for an adult and there is no espresso.

Maladiwa Beach and Spa in Maafushi is an absolute treasure that exceeds all expectations! From the first moment we stepped foot on the property, the inviting and friendly ambiance created a perfect start to our memorable stay. The staff, spearheaded by the exceptionally accommodating owner, Abdul, consistently went the extra mile to guarantee our comfort and happiness throughout our time there. The staff’s hospitality truly stands out; they welcomed us and shared valuable tips on the best local attractions. Their genuine care for the guests shines through in every encounter. The team mirrored the owner Abdul’s enthusiasm, always presenting a friendly smile and readily available to help with any request. The bikini beach is super close, offering a stunning setting for relaxation and rejuvenation. The tranquil atmosphere, paired with such attentive service, created a truly enchanting experience. If you're seeking a place to unwind and feel genuinely cared for, Maladiwa Beach and Spa is the ideal destination. I wholeheartedly recommend it! A huge thank you to Abdul and the entire staff for an unforgettable experience—we look forward to our next visit!

The shower could do with a revamp, tad dated and finicky to work out. Breakfast could definitely improve.

It was good

I love this place! The staff is very kind, the location is perfect - very close to the beach, markets, everything. It’s definitely one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in.

The location was perfect and the food in the hotel was great! Extremely friendly and professional staff, well trained!! We created a Little problem by booking an early flight from Male, not taking the earliest speedboat departure into account. Abdul helped is out in a perfect way and problem was solved. Would recommend this hotel when visiting Maafushi!

On hospitality, cleanliness and cozy holiday vibes, Maladiwa always delivers!

Nice and friendly staff. Good food. Very clean.

The rooms were too small and there were no balconies ( whereas in the photos they showed the balcony). We requested a bigger room but they have only 8 rooms. There was no hair dryer which is needed in any beach hotel. Green tax was charged extra when we checked in which was not notified before.

Where do I start. Everything about this hotel exceeded my expectations. As someone who has travelled to 45+ countries, this is one of the top places I have ever stayed. From check-in, Abdul and his incredible team made me feel at home. They had prepared a little birthday surprise for me, and this meant more than I could ever express! The room was extremely clean and had all the facilities needed. The staff - oh my gosh they were just INCREDIBLE! The lovely Balinese girl who checked me in continuously checked on me throughout my stay. The waitresses, in particular the girls from Bali and one from the Phillipines (I think!!) were so hospitable and provided the best service I’ve had almost anywhere. The food in the restaurant was incredible, and the discount at the restaurant for staying there was a bonus ;) The location was 10/10, I honestly could not fault a single thing about this hotel. Showers were warm also (seen a few comments about them being cold but did not notice this), a very safe area (I was a solo female traveller) and an incredible island. Thank you again team, I will be back & I will be recommending this property to everyone I can!

Nothing !!!!

Bathroom is very clean,good connection of wifi,near to the beach side,staffs were very friendly. We had lunch,lunch was tasty

There were no toiletries,breakfast included however breakfast wasn’t that good.

Clean, smiling co-operative staffs

In-adequate amount of breakfast

The staff were genuinely helpful, and the experience was excellent. It exceeded my expectations as well. The service was exceptional.

Location was excellent, Maafushi jetty,beach and water activities, shops, restaurants were nearby to the hotel; though portion and variety was limited for complimentary breakfast. Staff were excellent and reception was very esthetic.

Complimentary toiletries were not provided enough.

Location is superb. Staff also friendly. Jenny and two other indonesian (i forgot the name) is very kind to us and very helpful. The room also clean when we arrive. The dinner also delicious and came in big portion. The atmosphere feel so relax. Just 2min walk to the beach.

I think the breakfast need to come in a bigger portion.

Feels like a time capsule from the 1980s, with only minimal updates - charming in its own way. Everything was clean and tidy, and the beds were comfortable. The staff were very helpful and even prepared fresh fruit boxes for our early ferry to Malé.

The room was very small, with no view from the window. It’s worth noting that there’s a fantastic restaurant downstairs, but the smell of cooking - especially fried fish - is constant in the rooms.

Everything ❤️
