This is a lovely hotel and it was very good value. Book well ahead. The hotel is right by the bikini beach. Amazing view of the sea. The hotel is modern and clean. Breakfast is in a restaurant down the street from the hotel. I arrived on the very early morning ferry and a member of staff met me off the ferry. The staff had my room ready for me even though I was really too early but that was the only ferry time from Maafushi. My room was upstairs and it was beautiful, comfortable and modern with a jaw dropping view of the sea. The staff also had a welcome drink of fruit juice for me on arrival. The staff were very pleasant and kind. Free fresh water was available at all times.

I got to experience the full Maldives here at this amazing hotel, very cozy and comfortable room and the staff here is on another level, super friendly and very helpful. They have their own diving and excursion Center. Must try - shark bank excursion, snorkelling with nurse sharks and visit a sand bank and it was such a great adventure. And also if you are a diver, you must go to the shipwreck diving which is 10 mins from the hotel. Loved the whole experience and Gulhi is such a peaceful island

A very welcoming island and with such friendly locals.
A very welcoming island and with such friendly locals. It is a small island which is not that far from Male city or the airport by speedboat. There are some small restaurants and cafes that visitors can have snacks, drinks, tea and coffee. There are also many shops that sell everything visitors might need. Souvenir shops are also there and there are many items that can be bought at good prices. Cultural events are also there depending on the season and the occasions .

Gulhi island is perfect for tourists on budget.
Gulhi island is perfect for tourists on budget. We didn’t limit ourselves, we went on a couple of boat trips (which cost about 35-70$ per person) and bought whatever we needed (every meal was around 22$-36$), transfers cost around 25-35$ on a speed boat and 2$ on a public transport. All the restaurants, hotels and some shops accept dollars. The only disadvantage of the island, in my opinion, is that especially during low tide, the water in the ocean is knee-deep. Regardless of that the bikini beach is very clean and the corals are beautiful. Also I would suggest bringing fins with you because sometimes the current was really strong and renting them costs 5$.

Nice & cozy small island.
Nice & cozy small island. You can find local & western food over here & they are serving nice coffee over here. Friendly locals is making you feel welcome to the Island. Walking at the beach and swimming in the sea is the 2 common activities over there. Lying on the beach chair & watching sun set is really enjoyable.
The hotel is run by local guys. They go above and beyond to make sure you're enjoying your stay, and they provide a delicious Maldivian breakfast. Gulhi is a pretty small island. There was a lot of construction work going on during my stay. The hotel accommodation is quite simple but offers a short walking distance to the 'bikini beach' where water sports are available for a price. The WIFI works well near the lobby area for those thinking about doing some work in paradise. Thanks for the stay!
Well, we spend 7 days at this island. Gulhi island got smal but very nice beach with white sand and palm trees. Water is very shallow. Mr Jalil recepcionist at Pearlshine Retreat Maldives deserves all my respect for hospitality. Very nice and professional person. People on the island are friendly. Our room is economy withou balcony and we did not expected more. Good valye for money. Recomendation for food at restoran Ayala (hotel is the same name). Do not miss meal with fish, fresh and teasty.
Hotel location and ambiance is so peaceful. Staff are so friendly helpful and so much hospitable, early checkin and late checkout, available tea coffee and water all the time in reception areas which is travelers really aspected. Many Selection of Food & beverages, fresh seafood it’s a WOW. Specially Restaurant server DEEPA and hotel receptionist maintaining this property is as 5STAR……
I found the bed to be extremely comfortable, I had the best sleep. The room is quite clean and comfortable. There is a nice rooftop terrace to enjoy breakfast in the morning. They provide lots of drinking water which is nice too. If you need anything the hotel staff is happy to get it for you.
the location is superb, right at the bikini beach with some sunbeds reserved for the hotel's guests only - there was never an issue to take one even in the middle of the day. the room itself is ok, facilities are also fine. the restaurant onsite is also quite convenient
