Das Bad war klein, aber ausreichend. Der Wasserdruck ließ zu wünschen übrig, aber dann dauert das duschen halt etwas länger :) Das Leitungswasser roch jedoch streng nach verfaulten Eiern - ich weiß nicht, ob das so üblich ist. Können sie Unterkunft aber empfehlen. Das Frühstück war abwechslungsreich. ##### Anne Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Teresa Mar 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Dana war sehr freundlich und immer hilfsbereit ##### Teresa Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Residence Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Falhumaafushi-Hotels-The-Residence-Maldives.h6563347.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands](https://www.expedia.ca/The-Ritz-Carlton.h58998476.Hotel-Information) > > [Conrad Maldives Rangali Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Rangali-Island-Hotels-Conrad-Maldives-Rangali-Island.h564176.Hotel-Information) > > [Sirru Fen Fushi Private Lagoon Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Gaakoshinbi-Hotels-Sirru-Fen-Fushi-Maldives.h20823848.Hotel-Information) > > [Emerald Maldives Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Fasmendhoo-Hotels-Emerald-Maldives-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h22402311.Hotel-Information) > > [Adaaran Prestige Water Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Meedhupparu-Hotels-Adaaran-Prestige-Water-Villas.h1520790.Hotel-Information) > > [W Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Fesdu-Island-Hotels-W-Maldives.h1451558.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Park Sun Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Nalaguraidhoo-Hotels-Villa-Park-Sun-Island-Resort.h2917878.Hotel-Information) > > [Kuramathi Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Kuramathi-Island-Hotels-Kuramathi-Maldives.h1152540.Hotel-Information) > > [Atmosphere Kanifushi - Premium All Inclusive with Free Transfers](https://www.expedia.ca/Kanifushi-Hotels-Atmosphere-Kanifushi-Maldives.h15114442.Hotel-Information) > > [Lily Beach Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Huvahendhoo-Hotels-Lily-Beach-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h8751436.Hotel-Information) > > [Kandolhu Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Kandolhu-Hotels-Kandolhu-Maldives.h7495205.Hotel-Information) > > [Siyam World Maldives - 24-Hour Premium All-inclusive with Free Transfer](https://www.expedia.ca/Siyam-World.h53715771.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Maldivas - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Kedhigandu-Hotels-RIU-Palace-Maldivas-All-Inclusive.h35002724.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Maldives Kooddoo Adult-Only Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kooddoo-Hotels-Mercure-Maldives-Kooddoo-Resort.h15439261.Hotel-Information) > > [SAii Lagoon Maldives, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Ehmafushi-Hotels-SAii-Lagoon-Maldives.h30435488.Hotel-Information) > > [Pullman Maldives Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kooddoo-Hotels-Pullman-Maldives-Maamutaa-Resort.h39802685.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Furanafushi-Island-Hotels-Sheraton-Maldives-Full-Moon-Resort-Spa.h1326412.Hotel-Information) > > [Centara Ras Fushi Resort & Spa Maldives - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Giravaru-Hotels-Centara-Ras-Fushi-Resort-Spa-Maldives.h5714044.Hotel-Information) > > [Furaveri Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Furaveri-Hotels-Furaveri-Maldives-Stay-4-Nights-Or-MORE-From-01-May-To-31-Oct-2025.h12809109.Hotel-Information) > > [Bandos Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Bandos-Island-Hotels-Bandos-Maldives.h1705990.Hotel-Information) > > [Ayada Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Maguhdhuvaa-Hotels-Ayada-Maldives.h7353026.Hotel-Information) > > [The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Vommuli-Hotels-The-St-Regis-Maldives-Vommuli-Resort.h15858427.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru](https://www.expedia.ca/Landaa-Giraavaru-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Maldives-At-Landaa-Giraavaru.h1392594.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Exotica Resort And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Emboodhu-Finolhu-Hotels-Taj-Exotica-Resort-And-Spa.h526353.Hotel-Information) > > [Kuredhivaru Resort & Spa Maldives by Accor](https://www.expedia.ca/Kuredhivaru-Hotels-Movenpick-Resort-Kuredhivaru-Maldives.h28858949.Hotel-Information) > > [Hard Rock Hotel Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Emboodhoo-Lagoon-Hotels-Hard-Rock-Hotel-Maldives.h31994718.Hotel-Information) > > [LUX\* South Ari Atoll](https://www.expedia.ca/Dhidhoofinolhu-Island-Hotels-LUX-South-Ari-Atoll.h1520422.Hotel-Information) > > [Meeru Maldives Resort Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Meerufenfushi-Hotels-Meeru-Maldives-Resort-Island.h1451649.Hotel-Information)
