It's a long way from Male, but!!!
A good hotel: clean; cozy; cleaning, coffee, drinking water, towels daily; towels for the beach daily)))
excellent staff (especially the guy at the reception) and the cleanest (from shells, corals, stones, algae) beach on the whole island!!!
The choice of food for breakfast is not particularly large, but everything is very tasty 😋😋😋
The best place is price-quality! It is very convenient that you can walk 10 meters away, there is also a restaurant and a shop! There is a flooded boat with fish! The hotel also has excellent service - they try their best! I will definitely return here next year!
We vacationed in Rashu Hiyaa with two families with children 6 years old in December 2022. For 10 days for 2+1 breakfast and dinner at a cost of 258,000.
We flew Anex tour through Dubai, everything is comfortable and not stressful.
We were taken by speedboat from the airport in Male to Diffushi for 40 minutes.
The island is residential, with locals, a school, a kindergarten, and a stadium. You can walk up and down, shops are everywhere, souvenirs, prices are normal. The holiday is budget-friendly, there are piles of garbage on the island, and hotel construction is still underway.
The hotel is nice, right on the shore - the ocean came out! The beach is great right there, you don't have to go anywhere. Everywhere we went, the beaches are worse.
There are no waves, everything is calm, the water is clean, transparent, warm as fresh milk 😻the sand is not hot 👍 Sometimes there were short rains. The weather was comfortable, mostly cloudy. Once it was a sunny day and we all got burned unnoticeably, but be careful with the sun, go into the shade from 12 to 15.
Take tube masks, a boat is flooded in the water to the right of the beach, there are a lot of fish near it. Further to the left is some kind of building in the sea, they grow lobsters there, you can swim to see.
The food at the Hotel is very modest and spicy, it was difficult to feed the children, they asked for something not spicy, they brought empty spaghetti.
Of course, there is no abundance - but we were always full, we did not starve. Everything is taken out in portions , when they are disassembled, they report. Fruits are served sliced, apples, bananas, watermelon. No frills. There is also good coffee beans and delicious cakes in the cafe at the department. You can eat from the menu for a fee. We ordered lobster, cooked it straight freshly caught, very tasty.
We took breakfast and dinner. We went to other cafes for lunch, I liked it the most - if you go to the right of the hotel there will be a cafe with a diving center - everything is very tasty there! Tuna, chicken, French fries for children, milkshakes, fresh fruit, at a cost of about 3 thousand rubles for three
people, a small hotel with a cafe down the road, they have a swing on the beach, it's also delicious. But swimming there is shallow and algae.
Our hotel is not bad. Everything that is necessary is there. They clean up, clean, everyone is friendly, the staff is mostly Hindus.
We had a 2nd floor, ocean view. They didn't pay anything extra.
Once we took a sea fishing trip at the hotel, took us by boat to the ocean in the evening, it started to rain, some huge fish were eating bait right with hooks 😳😁We returned in pitch darkness, there were no lanterns or any lights on this boat. It was very scary, you never know if the same idiot would swim without lights 🙈
In short, the hotel can be recommended. We were in the Maldives for the first time. The most important thing is water! She's amazing❤️
We had a vacation with our family in October 2021. We really liked it. when we arrived at the hotel there were very few people. 5 Russians, a couple of Indians and a girl from Singapore. The staff is very nice! We went on excursions and were accompanied by guys from Palestine. such nice, polite people! we fished, went to look at dolphins, I sincerely advise you!! we had breakfast, lunch and dinner. Yes, there is not much choice. but we never went hungry. the hotel is clean, there were no trash stories. Super water! It's just great! take a mask, everything is cool to see) when we went to the beach (it is a minute from the hotel, the staff brought us umbrellas (it seems to me that we did not even ask for them) in the middle of the holiday, a lot of guys from India came, an Arab big family and a couple of ours drove up. It was a super friendly environment! the most exciting thing for me is complete privacy, that is, everyone smiled at each other, no one interfered with anyone, did not impose on anyone, no one climbed on a very international composition with their own charter! At night, we usually went to the swing by the sea or took chairs and looked at the ocean. There was a heron hunting all the time, a family of stingrays and baby sharks swam in. The Indian guys at the other end of the beach were singing their songs, it was super. there are locals on the island, we didn't bother them and they came to us)) they somehow realized that we were Russians, they said hello to us) the girl wrote earlier, so as not to embarrass the locals, she wore closed clothes, I support, we did the same. There is a small shop on ostroye, a modest choice, we took fruits there (mostly everything is brought from Thailand). the only thing I can say is that when you swim, you need to be careful, because once you swam far away, and there was a ship sailing close. it rained only once (for 10 minutes). I would love to go again)))
Vacationed at the hotel with my wife in October 2023 from ANEX.I liked everything very much.The food was FB.But there was no buffet as there were only 5-6 people in the hotel besides us. The usual breakfasts for lunch and dinner are chicken and seafood.Special thanks to the chef for the wonderful desserts.A Russian-speaking girl Olga works at the reception, who helps to solve all issues instantly..Thank her very much.We flew with Qatar Airlines.Excellent service and food.I hope they will come back.
A wonderful hotel, new, comfortable. The restaurant serves quickly and attentively. The room has everything for a relaxing, hassle-free stay. Your beach is on the windy side of the island, it's better to go to the other side. I will definitely return to this hotel.
Budget vacation in the Maldives! The hotel is not big, but cozy. The staff is sooooo attentive and polite! The beach is not huge, which is very convenient, umbrellas, sun beds are exposed from early morning until the last customer)! There is a shop at the hotel, you can buy seasonal fruits and anything you need, such as shampoos, dezika, cream protection... The food is normal, but spicy (, veri spicy.
The food is delicious, access to the ocean almost directly from the hotel, stingrays and sharks come in the evening, it was a little upset that the exchange of dinner for lunch takes place through lengthy approvals)
An amazing hotel with wonderful staff! We were there with a girl, we liked EVERYTHING. The staff is very responsive; they try to help with all the issues that arise, solve the problem, although we did not have any problems at all. The rooms are all clean, everything is working properly! We stayed at this hotel for 10 days and were very satisfied. I will tell you this, I highly recommend this hotel, if we come to this island, we will definitely stay there
It's just a wonderful place! My husband and I spent two fabulous weeks there. At first there were doubts, but it turned out that the service and maintenance here is even higher than in some 5* hotels. The exit to the ocean is literally 20 meters away. The staff is the best. They understand English. There are construction sites around the building that didn't bother us. There are a lot of locals - friendly, quite. When we walked around the island, I wore closed clothes so as not to embarrass the "closed" girls. There is also a shop on site where you can buy almost anything. But it is very important to pay not in $, but in Maldivian rubles, so as not to overpay.
A significant disadvantage associated with food: we rested according to the breakfast, lunch, dinner system. They fed us in the cafe next to the guest. In general, everything was delicious and in large volume, but rather monotonous and often spicy : (therefore, I advise you to organize meals yourself outside the hotel. I'm not filming the check-in, since the food is still being prepared outside Rashu Hiyaa.
We lived in room 403 on the top floor overlooking the ocean. The room has air conditioning, refrigerator, safe, TV. Shower cabin and balcony. We cleaned and changed towels every day. We were fed breakfast and dinner. On December 25th, there was even a festive dinner with sweets. There wasn't much variety, but we didn't stay hungry.
The ocean and only the ocean)
The rest is secondary , the rooms are decent, the food - you will not stay hungry, without frills.
There is no entertainment, walking around the island is safe.
A non-alcoholic week in the embrace of the ocean is provided for you, ( everyone decides for himself less and longer terms )
We were with my husband in June 2021. We chose the hotel based on reviews from previous years, which now clearly do not correspond to reality. The hotel has changed staff and the service has clearly deteriorated. The food was especially upset, just for 2. This is the first hotel on the sea where they do not feed fish, there has never been a fish in 8 days! Only pasta and noodles with small pieces of chicken. Not only does the cook cook poorly, but they also feed you the cheapest food.
The staff does not need anything, half of the hotel is under reconstruction, there is no dining area on the beach, no third floor, no restaurant, everywhere is desolation. I do not recommend the hotel to anyone.
1. The staff is polite, but sometimes they behave very strangely. For example, in a restaurant, it feels like how much food you take is being watched closely, suddenly you eat too much)
2. Cockroaches in the room.
3. The food is meager, but delicious. We had lunch in a cafe not far away

Very pleasant and comfortable room, polite attentive staff, fulfilled many whims. Close to the main beach. There is a playground opposite. The prices are quite acceptable. All the main entertainment of the Maldives is presented here. We went in 2015 - I really liked it. It seemed that you will not find a better price-quality option in the Maldives: economy, but with all the amenities! There is even a forest on the other side of the island! You can also see the locals. Souvenir shops are not far away.
It's a great hotel, but you won't be able to swim in front of it. We'll have to go a little further. Although... Everything is nearby here on Diffushi. The maximum is 300 meters.
