The hotel is probably one of the best options you can find in Maafushi, however, the standard is fairly low. The room was quite clean and spacious, and the balcony view on the sea is really pleasant. The negative points are a warn out lobby and a less than premium check in experience. You are only given a towel and face towel per person (forget about slippers). The restaurant food is acceptable but
Overall the hotel has an overcrowded feeling. The staff is generally kind but does not give the impression of being properly trained.

Boring breakfast with limited fresh fruits and veggies.
Boring buffet dinner. I recommend, you don’t buy with your stay. Same boring foods with limited fruits and veggies.
City view is “building view”. No city, just walls and bricks.
It’s good hotel for those who are budget conscious.
IT’S A DRY RESORT. No alcohol beverages sold at the hotel or surrounding restaurants.
Loved the cleanliness. It’s clean.
Loved the staff. Professional. Staff is nice. THEY TAKE GREAT CARE IF YOU.
Loved the location. Great location.
All roads surrounding the hotel are made of dirt so, no cute shoes. The beach is extremely rocky so wear water shoes to protect your feet.

Magic, Roxanne, Try, Maga, Linda and Shafiq were all amazing. All the staff were super friendly and helpful The individuals named above went above and beyond to make our stay and our marriage ceremony amazing. My wife and I couldn't be happier, and we will certainly be coming back. Thanks again to our new friends at the Kaani Palm Beach.

Great hotel, staff and views
What a wonderful stay we had. The hotel is right on the bikini beach so you step out of the hotel and BAM beach time. The hotel is clean and fresh and everyone has their role to play. Great snorkeling experience and felt safe and well looked after.
Meal options are fab and the buffet dinner is a treat.
We stayed in the deluxe room with balcony, room 1704 and it was amazing to see the sun set, beach from our bed.
We met Anisur whilst dinning and he was always so friendly with us. Giving us tips off lovely food and drinks to try at that time. He was attentive with our dishes and drinks and always was very respectful and happy and smiling. A true asset as out a lot of other staff we met but couldn't remember there names.
Absolutely recommend this hotel and look forward to coming again.

“Pleasant Stay.”
Positive Points:
1. Amazing view from the balcony (top floor).
2. Wonderful location (travel-friendly crowd).
3. Staffs of the restaurant were well-trained.
Negative Points:
1. The difference of the room rate from one website to another (or direct rate from the property) is huge.
2. Staffs of the reception should be professional.

Kaani Palm beach was excellent hotel. I enjoyed my 3 days with very good breakfast. My room was beach facing with balcony. Clean and resonabily maintained service items. One of the plugs was not work. I repoted and they sent a electrician straightway.
A small but decent infinitely pool was very good with excellent views.
Face to face communication was very good with the staff. But over the telephone, it was a bit weak.
The weakest link is the advise on transfer from the airport to Maafushi is less frequent outside of 7 am to 6 pm, also the costly.
Hope some clear information transfers and well published timetables would have been very useful.

I have just returned to Canada after my stay at Palm beach hotel.
I had a great vacation thanks to the efforts of the Palm beach staff and especially Magic (ask for him).
The room was clean and the food was good.
I tried almost all the excusrions they had and I was very happy that I gave it a try as I enjoyed every single one ( Hasan will take amazing pictures of you ).
I strongly recommand this hotel.

It was probably the best hotel for the amount of money we paid. Its definitely not luxurious or anything. There is no AC except in the hotel room. The food buffet is terrible, wet bread, rice and chicken every day. The breakfast doesn't even have real bread, ham and cheese or anything like that. Its better to just book the hotel and eat in the restaurants right next to it. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean.

I really the hotel, it is in front of the best beach on the island (bikini beach), food is okay and Tours are fun. The hotel is very small but well maintained. Rooms are medium size and very clean and comfortable beds. Drinking bottle Waters given everyday. Staff is very nice, helped to get my luggage from the airport the next day. Area is nice, whole are is safe to walk at night. The island is very small and can see it all in 20 mins. Kaani hotels are a chain with few hotel in the island, next to each other. I have stayed in another one before but this one is defiantly worth paying the extra money. I really recommend this hotel and I would stay here again if I come back. I would probably do tours and meals outside just because are cheaper but the hotel has the convenience of having it right there without leavings the property.

We stayed here for 9 nights, celebrating our 20th anniversary!
PROS: staff - some staff members (Karim in the restaurant) go above and beyond, excursions were fantastic - we done snorkeling with sharks and the turtles, both were brilliant, the staff running these excursions are amazing and do absolutely everything in their power to make sure you have the best experience, a la carte dining is exceptional, pool, spa etc were all great, I'd recommend having a massage while you're here.
CONS: our bedding was not changed once, housekeeping was quite basic, our room was tiny (city view 2905) as was the balcony-not the room shown on expedia, the minute you arrive you're bombarded with excursion options - which were massively oversubscribed, the shower pressure in our room was a poor, there was a terrible smell, we asked them to look at this and they sent someone up who turned it on and said its ok and left.
Whilst out one night a storm hit, on return to our room there was puddles of water on the ledge above the bed, mattress, bedding was soaked, maintenence came up climbed outside and pointed out where water was coming in, said they'd sort it, but no mention of wet bed, my husband said no this was the last straw we want moved, the boy that came to take us to the new room was really rude basically indicating we'd done it! New room was huge, shower pressure perfect, huge balcony and the same as on expedia!
We did have a great time, its a lovely hotel and we'd come back.
