“Amazing customer service”
+The experience in Arena hotels in Maafushi was amazing starting with the arranged transportation from Male Airpot to the island then Epshiba and Majitha making our experience better giving us a better room because of availability and also the day of the check up they were providing a extended check out if they didn’t need the room or a room to shower because our flight was 6h after we supposed to leave the room. Recommend to spend time in their beach, is a really nice spot and the food and drinks were cheaper than we expected. Also we booked the trips with them, just to say we saved 1/3 per person compared to what we saw in internet. We will come back 100%, thank you!

“I am very bad feeing my vaction stay in thsi hotel”
+I am very disappointed with my stay at this hotel and would not recommend it to families. The room was not suitable for a family. The balcony was extremely small and not usable for sitting comfortably. Although I had booked a sea-view room, the overall condition of the room was disappointing. It was not properly cleaned, and the bathroom was poorly maintained. Several bathroom fittings were broken, including the hand shower for the toilet, which caused significant inconvenience. The breakfast was also below expectations. During my three-day stay, the menu was almost the same every day. The bread was not fresh, the quality and taste of the food were poor, and there was very little variety. There were also very limited Asian breakfast options. Overall, the hotel did not meet basic standards of cleanliness, maintenance, or food quality. Based on my experience, I would not choose to stay here again and would not recommend this hotel to others.
−The staff and the hotel's activity team were very unprofessional throughout our stay. We paid USD 140 directly for activities that were advertised to last approximately five hours. However, the activities ended after only three hours, and we were not given the full experience we had paid for. There was poor communication regarding the schedule, and we felt that we did not receive value for our money. When we raised our concerns, the hotel reception staff were not helpful and did not make any effort to resolve the issue. This lack of customer service made the experience even more frustrating. Another concern was that all charges were made in U.S. dollars instead of the local currency, which was inconvenient and unexpected. The check-in process was also extremely disappointing. We had to wait for more than two hours before receiving our room. This long delay wasted a significant part of our first day, and my family, especially my children, were very disappointed after such a tiring journey. Overall, the poor customer service, delayed check-in, and failure to deliver the activities as promised made our stay extremely disappointing. I would not recommend this hotel to other travelers b

“Top Auswahl gewesen”
+Die Abholung, die Fahrt mit dem Speedboot, die Lage, die Sauberkei, das Essen, der Strand, das Personal, die Betten einfach alles war top! Kann gar nichts anderes schreiben. Für uns ist es klar, das wir nächstes mal Arena Beach Hotel wieder wählen werden. Zum essen im Hotelrestaurant habe ich ein besonders hohes Lob. Dieser Koch kann super kochen, desshalb haben wir den ganzen Aufenthalt dort gegessen. Auf einer Resortinsel isst man nicht so gut und wir waren schon auf einigen Inseln. Bitte lieber Koch, bleib da wo du bist bis wir wieder kommen 😃
−Keine Kritik

“Bé i prou…”
+La simpatia dels treballadors del buffet i les truites de l’esmorzar i la pasta del sopar. La piscina xula.
−Ens han fet pagar 15$ per un dels seus paraigües que sens va descosir només una mica a causa del súper diluvi… Queia aigua a l’habitacio de l’aire condicionat, i l’aigua de la ducha s’escapava pel terra del lavabo…
