Staff were amazing, very helpful and kind, we are so grateful for good service! Breakfasts are very tasty, it includes omelette, sausages, toasts with butter and jam and some starter (every day different). The location is good: sea view from the balcony, 500 m to the beach and a lot of cafes and shops nearby. Thank you so much for such a lovely visit:)

The trips on offer are spectacular.
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.
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.
I had an incredible time at this hotel! The service was outstanding - definitely 5 stars! The breakfast options were varied and enjoyable, setting a great tone for the day. The staff truly went above and beyond, especially Rakib, who made our stay exceptional. From assisting with our bags to providing island information and organizing excursions, Rakib's dedication ensured we had more time to relax and enjoy our vacation to the fullest. Highly recommended for a fantastic experience!
Excellent staff. They were willing to help with everything. Very attentive to your needs. From the warm welcome and early check-in to the delicious food. The room was very spacious, bigger than it looks in the pictures. The breakfast spread was small but the restaurant did a variety everyday and everything tasted great. The hotel was also very organized with the speed boat shuttle getting to and from the island. A great stay indeed and will definitely consider a comeback hotel
You have to go to the Maldives on Maafushi Island at Sun Shine View Hotel!!! This is a perfect place to experience the life of the locals.
I spent 17 days in this hotel and i felt so welcome and well cared for! Whenever i needed something they helped me!
The rooms were extremely clean. AC was great. Very good breakfast.
I recomand with all my heart this place!💙
Many thanks to the lovely family who owns Sun Shine View!🥰

The Arena Beach hotel is very nice place to stay when on Maafushi. Bikini beach is in front of the hotel and it is main
reason for many of us to come to Malidves. The room is spacious and clean with safe, mini bar and fresh water refilled every day.
Bathrom is huge with all toiletries, shower gel, shampoo and lotion. Beds are big and comfortable.
Staf is great, from reception till room service and guide guys for excursions.
The staff is really polite and helpful. The food here is the best on the island with a reasonable price. People from other hotels used to come here for lunch and dinner. Arun the manager helped us with transport, currency exchange and also obliged to our request for decorating the room for our honeymoon. They accept INR through GPay if required. Best for Indian food(Veg & Non-veg) - Dosa, Uttapam, Curries, Juices etc.
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.
I rarely leave comments on properties I stay in, but Lagoona Sunset is one of the best hotels I’ve ever been to. The staff are friendly, with beautiful smiles, especially Ahmed and Abdelhamid. Ahmed, the manager, is flexible and helpful. The room was cleaned every day, making me feel at home. Thank you! I won’t think twice about coming back or recommending it to others!
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.
It's one of the best hotels (if not the best) on the maafushi Island with good view, value for money and good staff members. They freely upgraded our initial booked room which was without balcony to another with balcony and sea view ....I MEAN WITH NO EXTRA CHARGE. that was so kind of them and our stay was worth every penny. Would recommend 💯
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.
White Shell Hotel was excellent choice for perfect vacation.Location was superb, just near bikini beach on Maafushi Island.Stuff were very kind and helpfull.Room was clean and beds were comfy.Full board food was delicious and lot of variety.Free wifi worked perfect in whole hotel.I reccommend this hotel and will be back
Staff was really friendly and helpful. The yard and restaurant were so beautiful. The food in the restaurant was amazing. Location is excellent, close to the bikini beach.
Also, the hotel is a part of the Triton hotels so we could go to white party or have dinner at Triton Prestige hotel for free.
Our 1st stay in Maldives took a jetty from Airport to Maafushi. There was hotel Manager and an attendant waiting for us to receive. It's 5 min walk to the hotel. Our room was clean and huge. Best was the sea view balcony where sunrise was very clearly visible. Amazing view the next morning
it’s the best hotel of Maafushi, right in front of the bikini beach. We loved it!! definitely the best place to stay at a low cost in Maldives.
delicious breakfast and people were very kind and friendly.
the hotel is located in the VIP zone of the island.
The guest house was good overall
The owner ahmed was kind
He was present at the Maafushi port to pick me up
The location is good and the island is small so everything is without a 10 minutes walk
The staff were amazing. The admin and the lady at the reception. We stayed at other expensive hotels but this hotel had some “homely” vibe around it. They were friendly and suggested value for money
Amazing hotel directly at bikini beach in Maafushi! Rooms are very nice, clean and the AC is great. The stuff is super helpful - they helped us even before arriving. Breakfast is good!
