Hotellit mukavuudella Uima-altaat maassa Malediivit, provinssissa Kaafu Atoll

The island is beatiful and the resort is pretty much everything you should want. Rooms were spacious, and well equipped. The service and the staff is very good and friendly too. The only thing maybe worth mentioning is that there only one restaurant where you can eat when you do all inclusive/full board (Sea Breeze) which can get quite hot as it’s not a closed area, meaning no aircon. The remaining 3 restaurants are not included and are charged separately.

Need to book early for boat airport transfer before reach Male airport. They will arrange someone to meet u at the arrival area in the airport. Later after reached maafushi, there’s a buggy to pick u up & go to the hotel. Breakfast just normal don’t expect too much. Towel can be request to change daily especially beach towel which is very good.

Awesome place to visit. The best thing about the stay was the water villa with jacuzzi and instant access to amazing snorkeling. Rajan our house attendant was a particular highlight, he always had a big smile on his face and went above and beyond to make our stay special and really succeeded, if you read this Rajan, thank you very much for your excellent hospitality, you made our stay very enjoyable! Only feedback I would give is to reduce the number of notifications sent by the app, it was a bit excessive. Also, due to the sky high prices of even simple activities, we opted to gave all of them a pass. A night snorkeling excursion asking for something like USD90 and then also charging USD15 for torch rental feels a little silly. You cannot go night snorkeling without a torch. Otherwise, we were really happy with the stay.

Absolutely amazing stay with small budget. The facilities very new, location is very close to the jetty. We can enjoy the amazing view of boats, parasailing and water activities from the hotel balcony. The staffs are very nice and we had nice breakfast as well. Highly recommended.

Phenomenal service - the whole team strive on a daily basis to make your stay “Out of this world “ I can only describe my stay as nothing short of Heaven ! Ibrahim Mohammed Roy Ashraf Thank you for going the extra mile everyday to ensure your guests experience is nothing short of perfection 💕 So good we are returning next year 💕 thank you to the Cocomo Team

Our stay at this hotel was marred by a series of unfortunate experiences, starting from the moment we arrived. We were wrongly informed at check-in that our room had not been paid for, despite having completed full payment in advance. Rather than verifying the system, the staff member sat by as I anxiously searched my phone for proof. Ultimately, I had to show my credit card statement — something I consider private — just to resolve the matter. Her attitude was unwelcoming, which is especially disappointing in a hospitality setting. After discovering the payment had indeed been made, she gave only a brief and indifferent apology. Following this, my husband contacted the Manager, who offered a complimentary buffet dinner for two as an apology. While we appreciated the gesture, it was overshadowed by another issue: we later received a letter requesting us to check out by 7 a.m. the next day, even though our original arrangement was for a noon departure. After another call to the Manager, he once again apologised and offered a spa session for one person. Though his crisis management was swift, these issues should not have occurred — especially given the premium price we paid for our stay. That said, there were redeeming aspects. The view from our room was absolutely breathtaking. The room opened directly onto the beach — it felt as though we had arrived at the sea the moment we opened our door. The room was also clean and well-maintained and we appreciated the convenience of having a coffee machine available. In summary, while the scenery and room amenities were wonderful, the service and communication left much to be desired. We hope the management addresses these shortcomings so that future guests can enjoy a truly seamless stay.

Our two-week vacation at Arrival Beach and Spa on Gulhi Island was the perfect trip for us. If you're looking not just for a beach holiday but also for a chance to experience authentic Maldivian life, this is an excellent choice. Overall Impression: We spent 14 days at the hotel and were truly sad to leave. It was our first such long vacation abroad, and it was simply wonderful. About Gulhi Island: This island is a great example of a ”local” Maldivian island. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay: a designated bikini beach, its own house reef for snorkeling, several shops, cafes, and restaurants. For entertainment, there are football fields, water sports, and various excursions. In the evenings, stingrays and nurse sharks swim up to the pier – a very unusual sight! Island Pros: - A small but very interesting island – if you stroll around leisurely, you can discover something new every day. - The local residents are very friendly and speak decent English. - The island is easy to get to – just a 30-minute speedboat ride from Male. - No mosquitoes – a big plus for evening walks. - You can observe fruit bats. Island Cons: - Sometimes you can smell paint from the repair shipyard. - There are flies. - Not very much vegetation. - Occasionally you see some trash. About Arrival Beach and Spa Hotel: The hotel left us with the most pleasant impressions. The staff is very responsive and the location is convenient. What We Liked: - Attention to detail: daily cleaning, towel changes, complimentary water in the room. - The rooms are clean and fresh, with good soundproofing and a wonderful view. - Amenities: beach towels and snorkeling sets are provided, universal power outlets. - Free sun loungers and umbrellas provided by the hotel on the beach. - Varied dining – buffet or a la carte menu. - Musicians perform on weekends – creating a pleasant atmosphere. What Could Be Improved: - The pool seemed rather cold. - The gym is very small. - During heavy rains, we noticed minor leaks. - The menu became a bit repetitive in the second week. About the Hotel Team: We would like to give special thanks to the staff who made our stay special: - Arif Sha - a great guy who knows a lot about sports and the hotel. - Ripha - the best expert on the Maldives and marine life. - Dilshani - a charming girl, pleasant to chat with on any topic. - Revil - the sweetest girl, her smile charged us with positivity for the whole day. - And of course, a huge thanks to the cleaning staff for their daily and important work. Verdict: We definitely recommend both Gulhi Island and Arrival Beach and Spa. This place is for those who value not only comfort but also genuine human connection. We left feeling like we had been visiting good friends.

Отель превзошел все ожидания . Невероятно красивый , зеленый и аутентичный остров. Без лишней выхолощености и новостроя. Будто на необитаемом острове. Но при этом чистота, правильно подчеркнуты детали в виде освещения и тд. Природа не тронутая руками человека. Океан невероятной красоты. Бирюзовая вода уходит от берега на десятки метров (Но не забывайте брать с собой обувь для купания) Очень дружелюбный и отзывчивый персонал . Просить ничего не надо, сами все предлагают. Полотенца меняют 2 раза в день, постоянно интересуются нужно ли что то , вода , кофе и тд. Сервис настолько хороший, что в отелях куда выше категории такого зачастую нет. Завтраки шикарные, есть все что необходимо. Выпечка, хашбраун, готовят омлеты , яйца, вафли, блинчики. Всегда большой выбор фруктов - арбуз, папайя , 2 вида дынь , ананасы , маракуйя , бананы , апельсины . Завтрак наполнен от и до. С ужинами чуть похуже, но это лично для меня , я не очень люблю когда все в соусах, но всегда можно найти что поесть. У товарища был день рождения, за ужином нам дали отдельный украшенный стол, поздравили всем персоналом, торт со свечами. И пока мы были заняты ужином, наш номер украсили поздравлениями. Понравилось что так продумали и скоординировали действия. Так же нам бесплатно повысили уровень номера до водной виллы. 4 дня мы жили в бунгало на пляже в 301 номере , и 3 дня на водной вилле под номером 506 . Для вилл есть отдельный ресторан , который мы тоже могли посещать и посещали. Это было очень приятно. Спасибо. Наш отдых был незабываемый и мы обязательно вернемся. Это просто невероятный отель за эти деньги.

It’s been a wonderful stay at Arena. I had booked a speedboat transfer from the airport for 1:00 p.m. but when I arrived, a staff member approached me and offered an earlier boat at 10:30 a.m. which was superb! as I didn’t have to wait too long at the Airport. Our room was ready at 2:00 p.m. but that was fine. We simply walked around the local island to find lunch. I booked an excursion with Arena and it was really worth it. All the staff were really helpful. For a family vacation, I highly recommend this hotel.

The place was excellent and the services I mean I have no words to express , it was my pleasure time I had spent with my hubby there in sky beach hotel in Maldives🥰
