Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The pictures they advertise are not at all the property. Broken windows , broken terrace , no island view, no lock on balcony door in room , no drinks,no food besides breakfast that is eggs , chicken hot dog and bread . The food menu they give you and then tell you they don’t have it . They advertise free shuttle but then ask you to pay for it and taxes each night on arrival . Then they asked again on departure and finally did take me to airport free after a struggle with management . The roof has trash and junk. The surrounding premise has the same . There are bugs in rooms. No hot water at all . No way to do laundry. You will wash by hand and hang on lawn chair to dry . This place is very trashy. Nothing like you see here . It’s fake photos . Be warned and stay elsewhere. The housekeeper male was the only one who tried to help. The rest seemed like wanted to extort tourists . The locals said the police are aware of them and they have done to many traveling .

No refleja lo que ponen en las fotos

A la llegada, todo bien,habia una chica en el aeropuerto de male indicándonos cómo llegar a la isla.Al puerto de mafuushi alguien vino a recogerme con un buggie.El hotel regular,ningún 4 estrellas.Diría yo una guest house.He pedido de comer y no lo tenían lo que pedí después que senté en la mesa y esperé un rato.La habitación muy espartana.Para hippie total.El baño ducha,water y lavabo (enano) todo en el mismo sitio ni siquiera separado por una cortina.No hay productos para ducharte o de estos que te dejarían en un hotel 4*.Solo un champú que no hace ni espuma y un jabón medio gastado.Toallas solo 2 no huelen bien.No hay un buen olor en general en toda la estructura .Para el desayuno no me levanté,era de 8-10am.Como si tuviéramos que ir a trabajar, no considerando que estás de vacaciones,pero creo que en toda la isla era así.Bastante escaso y de baja calidad además.Desayuné una sola mañana que tenía una escursion a las 08:30,de la cual el recepciónista tampoco avisó al que estaba de turno por la mañana así que tampoco tenían nada listo.No limpian el cuarto ni cambian las sábanas o toallas,un solo rollo de papel higiénico también para toda la estancia.Día de ck out: he pedido algo para comer,pagando porque ya era tarde para el desayuno,creo que el cocinero me ha dicho que no tenían nada ni café.Y toda la estancia ha sido: que no lo sabía, que mi compañero no me ha dicho nada, que no tenemos ni de eso ni del otro.No sé un poco improvisado todo.

Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und das Badezimmer war sehr gross. Das Personal war super freundlich und hat uns bei allem geholfen. Wirklich nett und sympatisch. Das einzige was wir bemängeln könnten wäre die Lage, da es ziemlich weit vom Strand gelegen ist. Anstonsten alles Top !! :)
