    It would be nice, if drinks can also be ordered at the beach. We really do not have ANYTHING to complain about.

    Amazing staff and beautiful hotel. Breakfast selection changed daily and offered a lot of options. The beach was clean and sufficient beds available. Room was spacious and the view spectacular.

    Our stay exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed every second here.

    Our family loved every second at Kiha Beach. The staff is so friendly and helpful and the location could not be more beautiful. The best snorkelling was right in the little bay by the hotel. The rooms were very comfortable and clean. The menu in the restaurant had great variety and good quality food for reasonable prices. The highlight of the trip were the animals; snorkelling with the Manta Rays, the little blue bird who would come visit our balcony and sit on our shoulders, the friendliest cats and kittens on the property, and seeing small reef sharks and beautiful fish right in the hotel bay. It was amazing!!

    Personally I found the hotel excursion expensive compared to what is offered elsewhere on the island, however they have their own boat and people who are very knowledgeable (so definitely price quality) It is good to know for future guests that there are mosquitos on this island (we came prepared).

    We generally go on holiday several times per year, but.. The food was amazing, I never had such good food on any of my travels. All of the staff was amazing, they almost felt like family when we left. The hotel is well maintained, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the private beach is just outside. The massages at the spa are extremely good as well. Never before, I gave a hotel a 10 out of 10.

    Loved being in the hotel on our own, but know that makes buffets tables a waste and happy that food was not wasted. I would love to have just had an allowance of $25 per day to pick from the al acarte menu instead of the fixed set menu choice of 2 dishes. there really was nothing to complain about

    The staff and management were helpful and welcoming, check in was easy and also welcoming. The beach for us in May 2024 was great but come the stormy monsoon season this might be different although new storm protection has been built. All three meals were offered as buffet style with an Alcarte menu so it depends on how you booked your food package - we picked half board. After the first few days we were two of 8 guests in total - benefits quiet and felt like we owned the place. Down side we moved from buffet to set menu. Bob is vegetarian and while little on the menu the chef was suberb at creating new veggie options everyday. In terms of the beach - this is near the equator and super hot - the beach has a lot of share cover protected by trees, although in the afternoon beware the mosquitos and at all times the sand is covered in ants Sun beds and sunbed cushions provided both looked tired Beach shower, hammock and swings available It is idealic but natural with crabs, baby sharks in the lagoon, amazing snorkling around the bays and the storm breaks, but you need to be mindeful of the Mozzies and ants

    Hotel’s territory just hotel and the beach, there is nothing to do in everything at all The food was disappointing- just a few options, small amount of fruit:( For several days there was a cook who prepared a fresh omelette upon request, but not every day

    Great location, very nice and pleasant stuff Room was nice, clean, fresh, with nice balcony beautiful view on the ocean) The beach - white sand, calm ocean, very beautiful coral reef right there. You can have snorkeling right there! Met big sea turtle :) Swimming pool in case you don’t like the ocean

    The island is being built up and there is a lot of construction around the hotel

    I was here on Jan'2024 and everything was perfect. Very cozy small hotel with beautiful rooms and magnificent views of the ocean. The staff were very friendly and they made us feel relaxed and calm. The hotel is located on a small calm beach with a rich reef. The island is small, cozy, and amazing people live on it. My advice: 1) visit the fish market late at night to see stingrays and even sharks that come here for food 2) try a coconut drink at a local cafe 3) try a traditional Maldivian dinner or lunch at DFC Restaurant

    Meal time is quite rigid. Some boat excursion are nice (half day and full day snorkeling + desert island), whereas others are less convincing; moreover the captain tends to overspeed spoiling the experience.

    Probably the best guesthouse in Dharavandhoo: our room was big and with a beautiful seaview, staff was always nice and helpful, the position is perfect. The beach has rocks on the bottom but the reef is close and quite full of fish. A la carte food at the restaurant is good.

    There are some trash sites around island, in some terms it is underdeveloped but it brings you local vibe and magic vacation atmosphere. There are aggressive ravens flying around, which are obediently waiting for stealing your food from plates! Bats and sharks are safe.

    Kiha Beach is for sure one of the best option at local island of Dharavandhoo. It combines quiet, privacy and beautiful beach and also close distance to local market, restaurants, bars. Kiha Beach staff is exceptional friendly, supportive and kind. It is calm, fresh and welcoming place. I recommend sea view room for the best experience. You will get complimentary bottled water a day for keeping hydrated in very humid and warm conditions. I do recommend Kiha Beach for everybody for the pleasant stay!

    My only negative comment is about the bed. It was, to my taste, too soft which caused my lower back to hurt. It does happen to me with soft beds, so it may be my fault.

    I can particularly highlight kindness, efficiency and helpfulness of all the staff. Front desk is extremely nice and pleasant and helped not only during check-in and check-out, but also to arrange my flight to and from the island (from Malé). Servers in the hotel restaurant are attentive, kind, always smiling and extremely helpful. Not only that, also the kitchen staff is very helpful. Room service staff is also smiling, always positive, nice, understanding and helpful. I would like to specifically stress the helpfulness of food&beverage staff. I have several food allergies, which are quite annoying, limiting and stressful. The staff made everything that I would feel secure, always informed me about my allergens and obviously took it into consideration when preparing food for the restaurant (as I participated in buffet dinners). So to some extent, I believe, I was a burden for other guests, but I do not think they noticed. Anyways, the behavior of the staff really helped me to lift my stress and anxiety about the food and I cannot appreciate it more.

    Nothing really, it would have been nicer to have a bigger pool but that’s just an extra feature, not a negative against the place.

    Helpful, friendly and very approachable staff, always smiling and ready to answer/help/provide. We were lucky enough to meet the owners B & N; a lovely and very hospitable couple who made our stay even more welcome.

    The island is pretty "empty" so to say. It is a local island, not too many shops/restaurants, things to do like on other more touristic islands. It is a different experience. I guess you would come here more to relax. Maybe it would have been helpful to have a local employee to get more insights on the island. Not so easy to get to the island (as for others) in case you don't want to take the airplane. Consider also weather conditions that might influence the schedule of the ferry etc.

    The staff is absolutely amazing! Very nice, friendly, always trying to help! The room and the other areas in the hotel/guesthouse are very spacious, nice, great view to the ocean. The food was always amazing, need some self control to not get fat there 😅 delicious breakfast with so many options, always also enough vegetarian dishes. The reef in front of the hotel is just wow!
