Exceptional

10.0

Chaalu Mathiveri is a great place on an exceptional island. I stayed for one lovely month and everything about this place was super. The room is clean and well-equipped - comfy bed, A/C and wifi work great, plenty of hot water for showers. Laundry service is fast and inexpensive. Breakfasts are decent with a mix of protein and fresh fruits - sometimes continental and sometimes traditional Maldivian breakfast. I love the location near the harbor and bikini beach. The best part of my stay were the people - particularly the manager, Imma, who genuinely cares about making sure the guests have a happy experience by arranging fun and interesting adventure trips. I cannot recommend this guesthouse highly enough. Stay here - you'll be so glad that you did.

Great location and fantastic host

9.0

The location was perfect, just a few steps away from Bikini Beach, making it very convenient for enjoying the sea and relaxing. The host, Imma, was always very helpful, ready to provide excellent tips and organize excursions. The grilled fish dinner cooked by Imma was delicious and definitely one of the highlights of my stay. The bathroom could have been better maintained. It appeared a bit neglected, and occasionally there was an unpleasant smell. Improving this aspect would greatly enhance the overall comfort of the stay.
