The trips on offer are spectacular. I would advise you understand the type of boat you are going on and check the weather. Salt Beach do fabulous trips and the guys on the boats are great.
We did have a trip with 'Maldivian Fellows' I was very disappointed with this one as they didn't have watchers looking at the people in the water and showed no encouragement to people that were a little nervous like 'Salt Beach' guys
We did the parasailing which was fabulous. We booked this with the guys next to the bikini beach and they were great.
Ive been to the island 5 times now and love its rustic charm although it is getting busier.
I can highly recommend the 'Juice Vibe' for the best coffee and juices. There are lots of restaurants to choose from, my favourites are 'Moonlight' which is situated at the opposite end to bikini beach and the Indian restaurant next to the Kanni hotel. Some of the washroom facilities are not so clean so always carry tissues with you.

People of Maafushi treat you based on the following: if you are white-skinned and living in a resort, you get the best treatments. After that, white-skinned, then brown-skinned in the resort, and the rest are treated like they don't belong in their precious land. Their definition of hospitality means you are meant to agree and not counter when they suggest something. If you have a different opinion, you are rude and disrespectful. The nature is unparalleled, but the locals have a long way to go to learn hospitality.

It is a very beautiful small island with very warm and hospitable people. With azure water and golden beaches. Prices are very affordable, there are several good restaurants.
It was impossible to swim because there are many reefs in the water inside and we caught our feet many times, which is why we could not go into deep water, and near the shore there is waist-deep water. No one has informed us about this. The hotel must inform the guests about such details in advance.
It would be good if there would be a bridge for those who want to swim in deep water, which would give them the opportunity to go directly into deep water.

Public island - so no alcohol/ all inclusive plush.
Public island - so no alcohol/ all inclusive plush. The island is small, had good snorkeling, small shops, restaurants and bikini beach! Everyone is friendly and want to make sure you have a good time. Many options to rent water crafts, fun water sport items. Many excursions that give you exactly as they are advertise. A short trip by boat from Male makes it convienent - not have to spend all day getting to your hotel.

Maafushi is currently a construction site.
Maafushi is currently a construction site. There is building work everywhere on the island which is only 1km x 300m. It is not a paradise island at the moment.
There are lots of restaurant options but it is not cheap if you choose a venue that doesn't include the service charge and government tax in the meal price.
I would avoid Maafushi until its been re-built.

People feel that Maldives visit is very costly .
People feel that Maldives visit is very costly . It is not as costly as we hear . Maafushi island is a happening place . best suited for people /family/couple who loves water sports , calm stay ,good food . very small island and clean beaches . lot of tourist agents who does water sports, snorkeling and also scuba . Food you have a wide variety from continental to local foods . you have super markets to buy easy snacks so that you reduce the cost of food . Search for alcohol you will find it .:)
This is one of the best hotels on Maafushi. Located next to Bikini Beach, where all activities take place, it offers a convenient location to avail water sports and excursions and breathtaking views of the ocean. Unlike some of the other poor reviews I read on food, the taste was amazing. The roof top pool was the best part. It was mostly empty and allowed us to experience it as a private pool. The hotel offers excursions and given that they have a large number of guests, you are sure to find a package of your liking.
Absolutely amazing experience in terms of hospitality, activities, food and overall services. Would recommend this to be the best hotel in this price range in the whole of Maafushi. The amenities, ambience and the infinity pool were spot on.
A special mention for Shameel, one of the staffs at the reception. He can literally make your day with his smile and conversation.
Kudos to the entire Triton team; may it be Triton Beach Hotel and Spa or Triton Prestige Seaview.
Thank you for the unforgettable experience.
We love everything, about the hotel specially the staff who assisted us. Mr. Sodir was so helpful and also the staff in their kitchen mr. Shaun was very friendly. They actually upgraded us to the balcony sea view that really gave us a very great view during our stay. We highly recommend the place as it is exactly infront of bikini beach. The infinity pool is one of a kind and indeed a great amenity that will show you the whole of Maafushi. 5 star for everything! Looking forward in coming back to this place!
I liked everything about this place,
The room was amazing.
The staff was so friendly and helpful (not to get money from you).
The hotel helped me to get transfers, PCR test and also to do some activities in the Island.
I liked the design and location so much.
I loved the food ❤️❤️ you have to try the Maldivian & Indian food there.
The owner is a great man, I had wonderful talks with him about everything in my mind about the Maldives.
We enjoyed our stay in oceana , the staff were very kind and helpful and very welcoming iqbal at the reception helped us arrange all the activities we wanted with great prices andall was perfect the entire atmosphere was cozy, the hotel location is in a quiet area were you will enjoy and relax and the island itself is very beautiful.
So, thanks a lot for a great vacation guys.
The Hotel was right on the bikini beach.. the main attraction on the entire island. The food, with Arena hotel, was lip-smackingly good. Wish they had more options for the lunch. The view was super from third floor. Must be better from the top floors but considering the hotel doesn't have a lift, we settled for the bare minimum view from the third floor.
All words of praise for owner and his wife. From the very beginning they welcomed us extremely warmly and throughout our stay they were accessible and available for anything we needed. Thank you! With great joy I invite you to stay with them, much better than with ordinary resort hotels where you don't have this kind of experience.
the room was big and very comfortable. tee and coffee for free in the room. the staff is very friendly and the boss take personally care of you. WiFi connection is very good. and the food that I had for dinner was the best of all islands I visited. definitely the place to be when your in Maafushi. I highly recommend this place.
Stayed in Maafushi for the New Year with the family. We stayed at Rehendhi Villa Hotel. The place is very clean and good place for a short stay. The meals were very good. And the staffs were really helpful. Attended our needs with utmost urgency. We enjoyed our stay there. The place is recommended for budget travelers.
The hotel îs located 1 minut away from Bikini Beach. Very clean room. The sunbeds are free on the beach. The breakfast îs served at The Kaani Grand and the dinner buffet at The Kaani Palm as we have haff board. Very good good. The personal from the restorants very frendly. For the lunch are many options on the island.
It was a short trip to Maldives and icom Marina Maafushi was the perfect budget hotel for this. Rooms were a bit smaller, but the service was really great. Terrace view and food are the two things I liked the most. We were attended by Alamin who was really polite and helpful in every way.
Hotel Manager and staff were really professional in their duties, responsive and helpful. They responded promptly to our needs and made sure our stay and experience at Maafushi was wonderful. They were very helpful in providing detailed information about the island and it activities.
A stylish medium size hotel with a beautiful garden outlook - very peaceful and excellent and friendly staff. I was visiting Maafushi for work and the hotel was a perfect location - close to ferry and away from the high rises that dominate the bikini beach end of the island.
Good price/quality for this guesthouse, especially if you want to visit the Maldives on a budget! The room was comfortable and clean with everything we needed, there was a hot water shower and fast Wifi. Since Maafushi is a small island, any location is good here.
The breakfast wasn't too bad, but with limited options. Also no natural juices available at all, which seems normal in the island. The overall hotel looks nice. The overall hotel looks great, and is just in front of the arriving/departing boat, makes it easy.
I recently had the pleasure of staying Alaina on maafushi, and I must say the service was exceptional from start to finish. The staff went above and beyond to ensure a comfirtable and enjoyable stay. Special thank to Kalinga (hotel manager)
The place is super comfortable and at a middle of the island. The staff is super helpful. Heartfully thanking mr kalam for going out of the way to help us from trouble. Even the prices for water activities and other stuff is very affordable.
Really good and clean hotel on Maafushi island, close to the bikini beach.Hotel staff were amaizing and helpful in any situation.I will definitely recomend this hotel for stay at Maafushi.
Super nice place to stay on Maafushi Island, with friendly staff and an amazing location close to the beach and restaurants. I want to thank Mr. Themiya for his generosity.
