This is a nice place to stay especially if you like cats. They have resident cats who stroll around the outside bit and are really friendly. The place was clean and a short walk away from shops, restaurants and the beach. You have use of a pool and restaurant at the sister hotel next door. They also help you book excursions. Wifi wasn’t good.

We travelled with a 1 year old baby and had to pay a lot for the baby crib which was a surprise because all the other hotels offered it for free. The 1st room we got was worn down very much. Although we asked for a quiet room, we got the noisiest one because it was right next to the reception and everything could be heard inside. We complained and got a better room on the 2nd day which we were satisfied with. The transfer from the airport was not a pleasant experience either because we landed at 5 AM and we had to wait 5 hours until we were managed to be picked up and taken to the hotel.

The staff is very helpful and the breakfast is delicious, a lot to choose from. Location is good, close to the bikini beach. The bed was huge and comfortable.

i am a bit disappointed with the behaviour of one of the receptionist staff (maybe srilankan not sure), she speaks rudely at us but in the end she apologize and was smiling after we told her we got offended on how she talked to us, hope it was her learning experience and to improve her customer service skills. in the in end, all is well between us.

i like to place, so cozy, peaceful and i like the nature ambiance and vibe because there are so many trees. the rooms and the restaurant under the shade of the trees are perfect.

There were holes in the mosquito net in the bathroom and the gap around the door was quite big so we had a lot of mosquitos in our room when we arrived. I also wish they wouldn’t have a parrot chained by the entrance.

The service with sun beds was very good.

There are under construction area beside hotel that made environment around hotel look messy but acceptable.

Location is good. The place is peacefully. Small but ok. Reasonable price for budget hotel. Restaurant for breakfast and pool share with Tritons hotel that comfortable. Staffs are friendly and helpfully and welcomed.

We didn't like that fact that they tried to move us to another place without even asking us if that would be okay. When we travel we look very deeply into where we are staying, and Stingray was exactly what we were looking for. Not a new concrete block hotel. We love hostels and little quaint old places :)

We stayed at Stingray as we wanted to stay at an old school place on the island. They tried to put us in another hotel when we arrived which was upsetting as we had requested this little quaint place to stay. And doubled checked before arriving that that would be where we were staying. Thank goodness they honored our request. the other hotel was new and nothing like Stingray.

It had ant problems and the internet was a little poor on the rooms

The stuff was amazing

Stayed in October 2024

When we came in the sheets weren’t clean at all, there were some stains and some hair. Cleanliness overall wasn’t great. The noise was terrible all throughout our stay, like loud banging coming from construction nearby or simply hearing people talk given that the walls appear to be very thin. Sleeping was tough, not gonna lie. Breakfast was a big disappointment, more often then not you would find a lot of insects in the food or nearby and flies flying around and if you go close to the closing time the options are very limited with some items completely missing and never replenished.

The property is in a very good location, just a few minutes away from the bikini beach. The rooms are spacious and well equipped and we had hot water all throughout our stay. The staff is very nice and helpful and will replenish your drinkable water whenever you like.

The bed was very uncomfortable, incredibly firm, like sleeping on the floor

It is conveniently located close to the bikini beach and many restaurants. Staff in general was nice and accommodating, helping us plan transportation to the airport and they even offered a juice when we got there for check in.

The room was very outdated and in a desperate need of maintenance (peeling walls, rusty fridge, moldy window in bathroom) it did not look like the shiny refurbished photos on booking. The TV although promised in booking did not work.

The staff was extremely nice, the rooms and courtyard always clean and taken care of. Restaurant and overall atmosphere was very nice and pleasant.

Renovate bathrooms remove mold and ants

Mold and bad smell in the room. Window in the shower (we had to put towel). Neighbors air conditioner very loud at night.

Staff was really friendly and helpful. The yard and restaurant were so beautiful. The food in the restaurant was amazing. Location is excellent, close to the bikini beach. Also, the hotel is a part of the Triton hotels so we could go to white party or have dinner at Triton Prestige hotel for free.

We could hear every word that our neighbours were saying through our bedroom wall.

The staff are amazing.

Stayed in June 2023

The noise levels are unbearable. We could hear every word that our neighbours were saying through our bedroom wall, I went to ask them to ask the neighbours to talk quieter but the lady insisted that the noise came from across the street but it definitely was not, it was directly through the bedroom wall. The music from the sound stage across the park was also blasting really loudly until the early hours of the morning every single night. Had we known this, we would have booked on a quieter part of the island. We dreaded every night. We just felt like we didn't have any peace but if you can handle loud noises then this place isn't bad.

The staff are amazing. Breakfast is included and it's quite good in comparison to some other hotels we have stayed at here in the Maldives. They offer really good day trips at affordable prices. It's located 2min walk from bikini beach and they offer free deck chairs for the beach which is really good. The restaurant also offers a wide variety of choices at affordable prices. The AC works very well which is a blessing in the summer months.

wifi is really weak, hardly can connect to the wifi while staying in the room. should purchase 4g in case

The location is just right in front of the beach, just few steps away and there will be a perfect location for sunrise and sunset

Bathrooms need upgrading cubical tiny if you was a bigger person would been an issue. WiFi really poor in the rooms.

Really good stay at stringray rooms we're nice but bathroom could do with an upgrade. Breakfast was across the street but good some strange items on the menu though but they cook you fresh eggs also. Not bad as it included in the price. Jacuzzi wasn't working during my stay but only few min walk to bikini beach. To me maldives is almost paradise but without the alcohol. Food in hotel was really good and reasonably priced. The manager let me use the sister hotel infinitum pool for the day as was my birthday nice touch & a buetiful hotel.
