Three Hearts Guesthouse and Villas

We have just spent 5 wonderful days at Three Hearts Guesthouse in Fulhadhoo, and we honestly couldn’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, Simbe and Elvira made us feel so welcome. They went above and beyond throughout our stay, and their kindness, hospitality and genuine care made us feel completely at home. One of the biggest highlights of our time here was getting out on the ocean with Simbe. We were lucky enough to see beautiful manta rays, swim with sharks and explore some of the most incredible coral reefs we have ever seen. The private tours at Three Hearts are such a fantastic experience, and having Simbe with us made them even more special. We were genuinely amazed by Simbe’s knowledge of the ocean and marine life. His passion for what he does is so obvious, and he was able to tell us so much about everything we saw along the way. He made every trip fun, relaxed and completely unforgettable, while always making us feel safe and looked after. The guesthouse itself was fantastic. Our room was modern, spotless and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The café served delicious food with plenty of choice, but what really stood out was the wonderful team working there. Every member of staff was so kind and welcoming, and they always greeted us with the biggest smiles. Their happiness was genuinely infectious and made every day feel that little bit more special. What really stood out to us, though, was how much Simbe and Elvira genuinely love Fulhadhoo. Their passion for the island, its people, the ocean and the incredible natural environment comes through in everything they do. It feels like they aren’t simply running a guesthouse — they are sharing a place they truly love with the people who come to visit. Fulhadhoo itself is absolutely breathtaking.

This was by far the best holiday I have experienced. The staff, the setting, the food. Everything was perfect. I felt well-balanced leaving this place. Very good energy.

It’s beautiful, tranquil, private, quiet, the people are the most beautiful souls walking this earth and activities were perfect.

The guesthouse is cute and has a very beach vibe decoration, The rooms are tidy and clean, the AC works fine. The breakfast was a surprise every morning. Considering everything is imported; they put massive effort into giving us the best and it was appreciated. The food was also really good. Simbe took us on excursions, it’s not crowded, we were alone in the ocean and took our time to explore. The two co pilots he works with are really nice too. The whole staff at the guesthouse was very friendly and nice. The bikini beach is something close to heaven. Fulhadhoo was a dream.

The portions of food were really small but it’s also the same at all restaurant of the islands, I just ordered a starter or desert to make up for it.

The location is great, the staff is friendly and kind, and the food in the restaurant is okay.

It would have been a wonderful trip, but it was partially ruined by Elvira. In summary, she is the most unreasonable, uncommunicative, and unethical person I have ever met in the service industry, lacking basic human decency and manners. Here are a few things for your reference: 1. Upon arrival at the hotel, we needed to pay for the speedboat fee. We agreed on a time to make the payment, but she stood me up twice. I had to repeatedly adjust my plans according to her new "orders" just to wait for her. 2. Another guest and I rented a canoe from the hotel. Shortly after paddling, one of the paddles broke. When we returned to the hotel and explained the situation to her, she demanded that we pay for it. That would have been fine, but when I mentioned that the paddle already had cracks in it (not to deny that we broke it, but to explain that it was worn out), she impatiently said, "So it broke on its own? You don’t want to pay, right? Fine, then don’t pay." She then turned around and stormed off, slamming the door. However, not long after, she contacted the other guest online, demanding that we pay $55 and accusing us of refusing to take responsibility. In the end, we paid. She completely ignored the safety hazard that the worn-out paddle posed to guests (imagine drifting away at sea because a paddle breaks, leaving you unable to return). 3. Another friend of mine came to visit me. Elvira brought him to my room without knocking and just opened the door directly. 4. Her online communication with another guest was equally unreasonable and shameless. Because this guest was on the flight to the Maldives and couldn’t reply to her immediately, she accused him, saying, "I have to ask you two or three times about every question." She also claimed to have a "spotless reputation for 10 years." How ridiculous—does she ignore the reviews about her just on Booking? She herself is the spot.
