Shafiq and his wife are helpful especially with our needs for water activities and places we can go.

None

Great stay iMaafushi. Comfortable room, clean and the owner Mr Shafeeq is the most helpful, from pick-up from the jetty, to arranging my tour. Will definitely recommend staying here.

Nothing.

The owner and his wife were very helpful and nice. They gave us better room for couple days despite the other was booked. They always supported us during our stay.

The breakfast is very poor. At least 1-2 pieces of vegetables could be added and more diverse.

The guesthouse is run by a husband and wife, and communication with the owner was smooth and quick. The location is very convenient — just a 5-minute walk to the main jetty, beach, and many nearby shops and restaurants. The owner did provide us some tour options which was nice and the speed boat ride is shared which cost 15$ check the timings or coordinate with the owner as they will come to welcome you once you arrive which was lovely.

In terms of value for money, I wouldn’t say it met expectations given the amount we paid. Honestly, I'm not sure how the place has a 9.2 rating. That said, we only stayed for one night, so perhaps we didn’t get the full experience others mentioned in their reviews. The room and bathroom were clean, but the space felt quite small, especially with a double bed in it. The bathroom had an unusually tiny trash bin, which felt a bit impractical and they didn't change the glasses as someone had previously used it. Communication was mostly through WhatsApp as no one was physically around. In the morning, we weren’t asked what we’d like for breakfast — it was just served, and it wasn’t the continental breakfast that had been mentioned. The wife seemed kind, but due to the language barrier, she wasn’t very approachable. Overall, it was okay for one night, but I personally wouldn’t rate it as highly as some reviews do.
