"The really good bits - the staff are second to none. They are committed to doing the best job possible for their guests, they work extremely hard and go the extra mile to see that everything is to your liking. As a solo female traveller i felt safe, they checked in on me and gave me advice on all things Maafushi.
Food.... chef made every effort to present the food well and the menu was standard with a buffet breakfast and hot evening meal of choice.
Front of house welcome was lovely.
The building needs a refurb. My room was adequate but really does need an uplift from the style perspective as its dated and shabby.
There is barely any internet at this hotel! Signal constantly dropping out with no hope of working from this location.
The hotel and pool is much smaller than it looks on the photos. There is building work right next door.....people should be made aware before they book.
The beach is literally 2 minutes away - sunbeds are available but they have to be requested on an individual basis, there are no parasols available and one of the porters has to run down the road carrying the sunbed. There is no beach presence from the hotel perspective, though you can get a free sunbed and parasol which are already set up on the beach by the other hotels if you buy a drink / food. This works - triton are missing a trick here.
One final point of feedback: the staff are what keep this hotel afloat and primarily the reason for the good rating. It would be nice to see them appreciated"

Yes, there are holiday rentals close to the most popular sights in Maadhoo, or you can select a more secluded option if you're looking for a relaxing stay.
What’s there to see and do in Maadhoo?
While you're exploring the area, Olhuveli Beach and Maafushi Reef are a couple of picturesque spots to get outside and enjoy nature. Maafushi Mosque and Gulhi Beach are a couple of places you'll find in the wider area.
What’s a holiday rental in Maadhoo like?
Holiday rentals are private properties where you can stay for a few weeks, or just a few days, in Maadhoo. Holiday rentals offer extras like kitchens and laundry facilities so you'll feel just like you're at home. If you're concerned about a sanitised environment, a holiday rental can provide a sense of privacy away from public hotel lifts and lobbies packed with people while still allowing you the enjoyment of travel. You'll also find more space in a holiday rental than in a hotel, which is another reason why a holiday rental is an attractive choice for small groups.
