Maldives Hotel Tips by faridah

HulHule Hotel

As soon as we reach the airport, we had to go the carpark which had vans waiting for all Hulhule guests.. it was only a 2 min drive..

When we reach the lobby, we were asked to sit down, given welcomed drink. I dont have to stand up at the receptionist counter and show my hotel voucher. Each guest is personally attended to by a receptionist, they come to where you sit, get the passports from you and explained to you the details. No queueing up, no need to show any vouchers... this is service!!

You are then shown to your rooms...
I had to book the suite room as they pnly allow 2 adults and 2 kids in the suite. Simple suite, nothing glamorous, clean.

The rooms have all the basic necessities needed; tea & coffee making facilities,2 tvs, minibar,toiletries,toothbrush

Comparison: more expensive than average

Price: US$80-120

Club Rannalhi

I didnt stay on the island, just another stop on my island hopping excursions. After going to the 2 resort island, I prefer Fiha, think I made the right choice.
I like the shallow waters around biyadhoo and the jetty in Rannalhi though...

Biyadhoo

I did not stay here but this is one of the stops for my island hopping excursions.

Fiha Lhohi

One of the reason I chose this island is because I like the Maldivian style of the rooms with the roofs, looks different. The resort have 3 dfferent kinds of rooms classic, comfort and overwater. Classic, is the basic, you have to pay extra if you want to use the aircond and it is 2 rooms side by side. Comfort is a little bit bigger, you dont have to pay extra for the use of aircond and it has a fridge. It is build either singly or double storey. I was told that the double comfort is a bit bigger than the single comfort.

The rooms are very basic, no tv, no coffee & tea making facilities. The toilets are basic too with bathtub, an outdoor shower would have been nice. I suggest you bring your own toiletries as the soap are the dispenser kind and there is no shampoo. When I was there, we were given only shower caps and disposal bags.Towels are changed as often as you want, just put them on the floor and a new one will be given.

You will be given beach towels and beach chairs with your room number on it.Rooms are clean 2x a day, in the day and at night before you go to sleep.
