Gorgeous little guesthouse, less than 50m to the beach! It was perfect for a 3 night stay with my partner and we could have stayed much longer. What made our stay was the staff! Ibrahim was so lovely and looked after us very well. He made us breakfast on the beach every morning and he was lovely to talk to! We would definitely recommend this guesthouse to anyone visiting Thulusdhoo and we hope to be back again soon!

The property was clean and tidy. It was simple and worked perfectly for my friends and I on our surf trip. The location is as good as it gets and the staff (Ibrahim) was our go to man. Anything we needed he looked after. He also cooked us breakfast every morning, taught us lots about the local culture, involved us in local sporting activities and was very polite. We look forward to staying again. Thankyou

Mahmoud e Hibraim are the reo guys that take care of us during our journey in thulusdoo, they are just amazing , very kind and will help you make your holiday unforgettable. Just one minute walk from the guest house in bikini beach there is the small restourant which is under the same management that offers delicious dishes at really reasonable prices; the staff is really kind and very friendly! I really raccomando this place to couples and family that would like to enjoy the typical vibe of a Maldivian local island !

A bit noisy at the beach due to the airport. Local people are throwing a lot of trash directly on the beach in the evening, so in the morning the beach looks really disgusting until it's cleaned

Very friendly and helpful receptionist at arrival (another one wasn't that great). Beach is right in front of the hotel

Bathroom could have been a little updated. It wasn’t dirty but just felt a little worn. Would have loved a fridge in the room to keep water cold however plenty of shops to get big bottles for $1.

Staff very friendly and always willing to help - book your excursions through the staff as they will organise and let you know if weather conditions are suitable. We booked Dolphin Sunset Cruise and it was amazing. Bed was comfy and AC worked great. Very quiet and peaceful. Big breakfast every morning included in booking.

The internet connection was not secured it made me feel unsafe I didnt see the reception guy until the next day he asked for our details to check in, it was not immediately The Bangladesh guy is sweet and kind but he loves to talk alot and he needs to understand that people dont want to talk always especially in the morning, whenever I open my door to go outside and do sth he immediately comes and starts talking which made me a bit uncomfortable cause I needed some space for myself to enjoy the view with my cup of coffee but he didnt give it he was there always

Good location, one minute walking to bikini beach, very small hotel like family house, breakfast is good and clean, room needs alittle bit of work in the bathroom to make it better and more suitable to be used but other things were good

Shower Luke warm but not enough to put me off staying again.

The whole property was perfect for our stay. Not over fancy and a great price for a top spot location. Breakfast served on beachfront and an amazing breakfast by Ibrahim exceptional hosts who go above and beyond. If you just want a comfortable and clean bed for the night and exceptional service at a great rate this is the place to go. Will def return. Thank you guys so much. Steph and Andy

The rooms don’t have windows. No natural light at all. When the outside temp is about 42 degrees sometimes it is nice to stay in an AC room but it isn’t so appealing without a window

It is very close to the beach

There is not a lot to do in the Maldives when it rains. Not the fault of the hotel, of course.

The property is very small and personal. The staff was very attentive. This is not a resort. It is more like a bed-and-breakfast. It is a few steps from the beach. There are several restaurants within a few steps. Everything you need in the small town is close walking distance.the staff was super helpful and kind. This is the real Maldives not one of those all inclusive resorts that could be anywhere in the world. I wouldn’t do it any other way. When choosing an island, there are many to choose from. This island is about 35 minutes from Male, the speedboat ride is pleasant, the hotel said everything up that we needed, including the speedboat, fishing trip, swimming with turtles, snorkeling, trips to the beach, surfing.

If you wanna expirience true local hospitality and the real malivian island vibe that`s for sure the best place to go to. Mahamoud will help u out with all your questions and needs instantly. Ibhrahim is the kind and loving soul of the house. He takes very good care of the facility and guests. The breakfast is wonderful. You can deposit your wishes and Ibhrahim will meet them. One of the best stays i ever had. Highly recommended!

We had a great experience at a local guesthouse. Very nicely decorated with friendly staff and just a few steps from the beach. A special thank you to Ibrahim and the owners who took care of us during our stay
