Beachfront holiday rental in Maldives

Beautiful place on the beach , nice staff, recommend men. We'd love to come back.

It was a pleasure to be on vacation at MIT’s house. Good house and environment. I will recommend it for families! Manager is very reactive and communication was easy.

It is a guesthouse with few rooms and a very personalized service. The room is much better than the pictures. Very spacious and with a desk. I worked from here and the wifi was perfect. All the staff are very attentive. I recommend it!

Had a very nice stay in this guesthouse. The island is not very touristic so you could really enjoy the beautiful beach. Mustapha also recommended some nice activities!

Abdulla was an exceptional host. He welcomed us very well. The room was perfect for our family of 5. Breakfast was good, the room is cleaned every day and towels changed too. We booked excursions with Abdulla with very reasonable prices compared to the competition! One beach 2 steps away and the other 5 min away you can see sharks in both and we had the chance to meet two majestic manta rays at the 2nd beach. And we leave with lots of lovely memories! Thank you Abdulla and the lovely person.

it was great and cheap, i loved it, only remark, they could have double beds instead of 2 single beds put together

Everything was as agreed, the accommodation is just like in the pictures, with a wonderful view of the sea from the room. Our host, Shaniu, is a great person and was helpful, kind and attentive in everything during the time we were there. Unfortunately, the unexpected stormy and rainy weather put a bit of a damper on the planned programs, but despite all that, we had a great time there. I strongly recommend the place and the host Shaniu and thank you for the pleasant rest, we will go again next time.

I’m a worldwide traveler and an airbnb Host myself. The host team did a great job arranging the seaplane back and forth from Male airport. The pictures of the property didn’t really showed how beautiful this place is. You are actually coming to a super large 5 star resort with many swimming pools, many bars, many restaurants and a lot of activities to do. We stayed 5 nights only and felt at home and like we needed 1 more month to really enjoy and discover the entire resort. All the staff were super friendly on every single place we visited. The beaches are something to remember like a movie postal each one of them. Couple of years ago we visited Bora Bora & stayed in an ocean bungalow there as well, and though we wouldn’t find another gem like that. Well, we all think we were wrong. This place in Maldives surpassed Bora Bora by a mile. Definitely will back in the future & will contact the Host once again for a great & unforgettable trip. Super super highly recommended. Thanks again.

Beautiful island, we had a good time and would love to come back. The value is good, friendly staff and quick to respond. 7 double/triple rooms with private bathroom, it is the closest to the bikini beach, at the beginning of the island forest, quiet location but close to everything. Recently built in a modern style, a clean pool of discreet size, three-story building: on the ground floor, living room with TV sofas and dining table, 2 bedrooms of which a large one with direct access to the pool + kitchen, a cook prepares breakfast for you and on request can also give you lunch and dinner , on the second floor 4 rooms with different sized terraces, on the third floor 1 quiet room suitable for two people (for 3 people is small) + another room for eating+ large terrace with sofas and seating, on the third floor (roof) large solarium with beautiful views of the beach, beautiful at sunset. I recommend: bring repeaters for mosquitoes like tropical autan type.

Our stay at Haneefs was the best holiday ever. We were taken care of 24/7 and every wish we could think of was fulfilled. The locals welcomed us as if we were living there. This was a great way to get to know the life of the locals. The island is a very natural, small island with a nice little jungle and a huge, well-maintained house reef where we could see turtles, small sharks, rays and octopuses right in front of the hotel. You are provided with very good free snorkelling equipment and shown great dive spots. In addition, Haneef and his team offer wonderful excursions, all of which are very reasonably priced and super worthwhile. For example, we were able to see turtles, picnic on sandbanks, explore uninhabited islands and learn to fish with a BBQ afterwards. The restaurant at the hotel is also super delicious and offers very tasty local cuisine, among other things (also pizza, fries and pasta). The two Bikini Beaches on the island are beautiful, next to the hotel and also great for snorkelling. You can also take professional diving courses on the island. We didn't miss anything on our holiday and we made wonderful, close friends. In contrast to the resorts, the holiday is much cheaper but offers similar luxury and above all lots of beaches which are not overcrowded by tourists and great insights into the life of the locals. The excursions are the same as those offered in the resorts, but much cheaper and also more private without large groups of people. We will never forget this holiday and the friends we made will last a lifetime. We will definitely come back and recommend everyone to take a holiday with Haneef in Maalhos. It is worth it!!!

Unforgettable Honeymoon! We couldn’t have chosen a better place to celebrate our honeymoon. From the moment we arrived, the staff welcomed us with beautiful decorations and a bottle of champagne to celebrate. The place was spotless, with breathtaking views and delicious food. The island also has a clinic for any kind of emergency, with highly professional staff, which gave us great peace of mind. We especially want to thank our host, who was attentive to every detail. Our flight got canceled and we couldn’t arrive on the scheduled day, but he helped us throughout the whole process — from rearranging our domestic travel to adjusting the dates of our stay. Truly outstanding service! We’re leaving feeling so happy and incredibly grateful to everyone. We highly recommend this place 100%.

Great place to stay, grocery store opened during nightime and daytime on ground floor. All buildings around have similar grocery stores opened during the time the one in the building is closed. Good pizza place nearby, Pizza buona. Bus stop 1' walk from the tower, airport ride about 20'. All cooking amenities, balcony, perfect place to stay for a week. For scuba divers, Dive Club Maldives offering shark tank dives 30' walk away. Would 100% recommend! Thank you for everything.

Great place great view

Thank you

Pros: Clean and well maintained place. The receptionist is super friendly. The bed is comfortable the shower is nice and the price is very good. Location wise it is a bit far from Bikini beach you would need a ride on the motorcycle from locals or a 15-20 minute walk. It is however near the port. Cons: I faced obstacle finding the place as the location on Airbnb is not the one. And Zakittey was unresponsive on airbnb. So had to go any hotel so they can help me call the guy. When i did, he said rooms are fully booked and you should’ve asked me first and all his rooms are rented on on booking. But the money have been deducted from from my bank account and sent already!
