+The rooms were spacious and clean. The apartment for 5 people was the ideal accommodation for our family. The staff was pleasant and helpful. Breakfast in the accommodation was a Maldivian menu, for dinner and lunch we went to local restaurants.

“Very good”
+We had a nice stay at Ganduvaru. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the port and accompanied by the friendly staff, which made us feel welcome right away. The breakfast was a decent size (we chose the Maldivian style, which we highly recommend!).
−A few minor cons: - The walls are a bit thin, so light sleepers might find it slightly disruptive if there’s noise from neighboring rooms or the street. - The bathroom and some of the towels could use a little updating, but overall, everything else was fine.

“Good place to stay on ukulhas”
+Staff were fabulous. Omar organised the speedboats and trips. The shark/manta trip was awesome. The room was comfortable and clean. Location good too. Snorkeling off the beach is also good. Plenty of beach space. I would stay again.
−The chalets/huts are a bit on top of each other. There's no outside privacy. Unfortunately Ukulhas is in the middle of a building boom. I feel it might change the islands personality. That would be a shame. It could become over crowed.

“Very good”
+Small gueathouse near the beach . Ahmad and his colleague did everything they could for us to have a good time. All the best to you guys.
−The bedsheets had some stains ,but nothing too bad. Also,if you are a fan of hot showers, you will need to be happy only with warm water. For us it was ok.

“Great and relaxing vacation that ticked all the boxes.”
+Great location , very good and comfortable rooms. Staff was excellent. They prepared early breakfast for us as we had to leave for diving everyday early in the morning. They changed our beach towers multiple times a day. All small issues like door locks etc were attended promptly.
−Breakfast options could have been more as I felt it was very limited. But just about enough to start your day.

“Island Luxury: Discovering Ganduvaru Villa's Hidden Gems”
+Ganduvaru, meaning "Palace," perfectly encapsulates the experience at Ganduvaru Villa on the charming local island of Ukulhas. This enchanting getaway truly makes you feel like royalty, whether you're a King, Queen, Prince, Princess, Duchess, Duke, Sir, or Ma'am. My recent week-long stay here felt nothing short of a dream, thanks to the extraordinary hospitality of Shifaz and his incredible team. From the moment I booked my stay, I was treated with genuine care and attention, beginning with the seamless organization of my speedboat transfer and culminating in a warm, personalized meet and greet upon arrival that made me feel like part of the family. I was blessed to stay in villa 105,an incredibly spacious haven featuring a queen-size bed and a single bed. Each night promised restful slumber, allowing me to wake up rejuvenated and eager to start my day. Every morning, a delightful breakfast awaited me on the balcony, always served at my requested time. For a true taste of Maldivian culture, I recommend indulging in the local Maldivian breakfasts. They are a delightful and refreshing way to kickstart your day with nourishing ingredients. The villa itself was immaculate, surrounded b
−The Mosquitos - but that's just nature and all throughout the Maldives especially after it rains. Make sure you spay insect repellent

+Все было превосходно! Начиная с трансфера, нас встретили в аэропорту, посадили на катер, от пристани на острове доставили в отель на гольфкаре. Номера соответствовали ожиданиям. В номерах было чисто, все оборудование работало исправно. Хороший достаточно быстрый интернет, несколько вариантов вкусного завтрака. Очень близкое расположение пляжей на восточную, южную и западную стороны, в любое время дня можно было найти тень, свободные лежаки, качели. Отель предоставил достаточное количество постельного белья, банных и пляжных полотенец с частой сменой. Персонал был очень приветливым и приятным, обеспечили комфорт и уют. Много магазинчиков и ресторанов на острове, недостатка ни в чем не испытали. Отдых на пять из пяти! Все прекрасно!
−Неприятных моментов за время пребывания не возникло.
