    Super friendly hosts, Ali and Habibi go out of their way to help out with anything you might need. The place is clean, quiet, great shower and fresh new bathroom, awesome comfy big bed and sheets, ac and a quiet fan, yoga mat, quiet roof to stretch. Loved It. Would definitely stay here again. Inshallah.

    When extending my stay the cost turned out to be around 20 dollars more than what originally paid. A large increase in. cost when using local currency or paying by card.

    Friendly staff, clean and comfortable room. The breakfast was very nice.

    Bring mosquito repellent, they are all over the island. The description of the room facilities is not accurate, they just checked all the boxes - but I didn't miss anything.

    Nice place! Close to the harbor to catch a surf-boat, good breakfast, comfortable beds, good AC, fridge in the room and a common area to chill. At the moment they are hosting 6 rooms. Contact the owner to organize you a direct boat from the airport to Himmafushi. Thank you for the nice week I had!

    Great guys., super accommodating. The place is chill and comfy place and basically has everything one needs. Only thing missing would be a bicycle or two to go for a quick surf check as the break is not the closest but locals are super friendly and often offer a ride, so...

    Great place to stay if you are surfing on the island and nearby breaks. Ayya is a nice host, will organize boats or anything else you need. The rooms are simple but have everything you need. Close to the restaurants, everything is walkable. Would definitely stay again 🤙🏼

    Ali and Habib were absolutely amazing, so helpful and friendly. The cooking was delicious, the bed was so comfortable and air conditioning was so nice and cold. Ali also organised us a fishing trip and we caught a 6kg Yellowfin Tuna that Habib cooked beautifully for us. We would HIGHLY recommend this accommodation. Thank you so much Molar Wave for an incredible experience 🫶

    It be a great service for the traveling surfers if they would organise daily boat trips to the breaks. Because we where just traveling with two it be quite expensive to organise a private boat. And maybe some hammocks or to make the hang out area really chill!

    Ali and Habib made our stay as comfortable as it could get! We had a great variation of breakfasts served every day by Habib, especially the local dish was amazing! Ali organised us a great Snorkelling trip upon request. We felt great looked after, all of our questions got answered and they even took good care of me after I stood on a Sea Urgin.

    My stay at Molar Wave Hotel in Himmafushi was exceptional, largely thanks to Ali, the manager, and Habib, the cook and host. Beyond Ali and Habib's exceptional service, Molar Wave Hotel offers a perfect blend of tranquility and adventure. The comfortable accommodations and stunning views provide a serene setting. I highly recommend this gem of a hotel for an unforgettable Maldivian getaway. Thank you to the entire team at Molar Wave Hotel for a memorable experience.

    Nothing.

    The staff are incredible. Amazing free breakfast every day, and the dinners they cook were the best we had on the whole island. They went above and beyond our entire stay, and made Himmafushi instantly feel like home- and even let us stay in our room far past checkout time before we had to catch the ferry back to Male.

    Fantastic location as it is close to the restaurants and boats. The staff was excellent as they were so friendly with plenty of local knowledge and making sure we were comfortable. They also made it easy for us to make surf trips day by day while always able to connect us to the right people when we needed something.

    Really enjoyed our stay here. Very well run friendly hotel. Breakfast was really good. It was different every morning. We had pancakes one day, Dahl curry another, eggs etc another. The man making the breakfast was always friendly and made breakfast when you wanted it Love the huge tree that the house is built around Rooms are great Himmafushi is quiet but feels more local than many islands. I mean this in a good way. There is a Bangladeshi run street restaurant just around the corner which is really good, the shipyard to explore, a decent bikini beach, a street with parrots outside, little souvenir shops, family run bakeries and ice cream shops, the sound of the call to prayer. A good local experience
