Alright where do I start ? Almost everything was amazing, starting from the staff who welcomed us at the harbor to the magnificent view from our room. The room was very clean and the staff were exceptionally friendly and polite. The hotel is literally in front of the sea, so you basically get out of the hotel and jump into the water. One last thing, the infinity pool is amazing, though it can be crowded at times.

The food sadly. I know that at the end of the day food is subjective and everyone has their own taste and preferences, but in our case, sadly the food was so bad and not only that.. the fresh vegetables and the deserts that aren’t covered had so many insects and fly over them. The buffet was always restocked, however, as I mentioned the food tasted awful and some of the stuff was down right unhygienic.

Great hotel, they take care of everything. They have there own boats to transfer you and take care of your luggage. Rooms are small but comfortable and location is the best on the island, on bikini beach.

Our room sometimes smelled like cigarette smoke, i think the people in the room next to us were smoking inside. We signed up for a resort day trip through the hotel which was awful (vadoo) later we figured out they were charging more then other tour operators too. We booked through someone else and paid $25 less to go to a much nicer resort kaani wasnt offering (oluvehli)

Room allocation is perfect. We are given one of the best rooms where we have the best view of the ocean and is super quiet. The hotel is new for the facilities are functioning really well and at its best condition. It has an infinity pool at the top of the hotel. Easy to book excursions as staff at the reception are so helpful. Thank you to Kadir who is super welcoming and addressing us by our first names. He walks us through of what our room has for us. He helps us in booking different activities while on the island. Breakfast food options are diverse and tasty of course. Super grateful to Shafeeq who is all smiles when he sees us coming for breakfast. He even brings us extra sunny side ups aside from the omelette we actually requesting. He is always making small talks with us, checking on us, attending on our needs and that he goes above and beyond of what we are expecting. And I will never miss this chance to thank Try who always checks on us too of how our previous day was and if we are having an enjoyable time. I will definitely recommend this hotel for it has the perfect combination of comfort and warmth, facility and people wise.

The room, the beach, the friendly staff & the food.

1. Many flies at the restaurant. 2. Real relax trip too crowded. 3. Shark point: Many couples standing on the boat waiting for a turn snorkelling with the guide while I am not waiting for the guide, unable to get off the boat.

1. Infinity pool at the top floor, accessable for long time 8am to 7.30 pm. 2. Location of the resort is just beside the bikini beach 3. Property arranges water activities, day trips at very reasonable cost. Stuffs are very helpful.

1. Room size is bit small compared to the price and resort popularity. 2. AC was not working properly for both the staying days, we informed room service but they came very late, even after repairing AC was not working so had to stay with a bit uncomfortable sleep. Expected more sincere service in such cases . 3. Breakfast was included.but the food items are very less varieties. Expected more variety.

As a couple, our stay at Kaani Palm Beach in Maafushi, Maldives was enjoyable. From the moment we arrived, we appreciated the convenient location and amenities of this hotel. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the stunning infinity pool, which offered beautiful views of the crystal-clear waters of the Maldives. We spent many hours lounging by the pool, taking in the panoramic vistas and enjoying the sunset. The rooms at Kaani Palm Beach were clean and spacious, providing ample space for relaxation and comfort. the bed was comfortable enough for a good night's sleep after a day of exploring the island. The hotel's location was ideal, with direct access to the bikini beach, allowing us to enjoy the powdery white sand and turquoise waters just a few steps from our room. The convenience of being able to walk straight into the bikini beach was definitely a plus for us. One of the highlights of our stay was the fun beach party organized by the hotel, which added an extra touch of excitement to our evenings. We enjoyed the lively atmosphere and dancing the night away under the stars, creating unforgettable memories. We would recommend booking a balcony room over a standard room at Kaani Palm Beach. Although the price difference may be insignificant, the balcony rooms offer breathtaking views and an outdoor space to relax and unwind, adding an extra touch of comfort to the experience. The standard rooms, which do NOT have any windows, may feel a bit confined and lacking in natural light. We recommend booking a balcony room for a more comfortable experience, although the hotel may not be overly luxurious. Despite the disappointing breakfast, the overall value and quality of this hotel make it one of the good options on Maafushi Island.

The only downside of our stay was the disappointing breakfast. The food was of low quality and lacked flavors, which was a letdown. However, it did not significantly impact our overall experience at Kaani Palm Beach.

This is one of the best hotels on Maafushi. Located next to Bikini Beach, where all activities take place, it offers a convenient location to avail water sports and excursions and breathtaking views of the ocean. Unlike some of the other poor reviews I read on food, the taste was amazing. The roof top pool was the best part. It was mostly empty and allowed us to experience it as a private pool. The hotel offers excursions and given that they have a large number of guests, you are sure to find a package of your liking.

The only negative experience we had was related to speedboat transfer from Male to Maafushi when we arrived. The hotel confirmed out transfer for $25 per person but did not communicate the time. When we arrived, we looked out for the Kaani booth on airport but it was empty. Plus, unlike the staff of other hotels, their staff was not holding any hotel banners / boards to the passengers on arrival. After looking out for the staff, we were told that our speedboat had left and the next speedboat was after 4 hours. Plus, their staff on airport booth was unfriendly. We asked him to contact the hotel and solve the problem, but he was like I can't do anything. Just wait here for 4 hours.

Much better than expected. We had a very nice room with balcony with great views to the bikini beach. The room was cleaned daily. Very comfortable bed. Location is the best just in the bikini beach. Breakfast started early and was tasty. Waiters from breakfast were nice. Hotel offers trips with good prices.

Reception staff could be more polite and friendly. I would greet them with a "good morning" or "good evening " and would not have a reply back.

Great property in Maafushi. Staff were extremely cooperative. Property is right in front of the beach, so great views and very convenient. We also took water excursions from them which was really well planned.

I booked three rooms and they allocated the rooms on separate floors. It should be quite evident that if one person has booked multiple rooms they would want it to be together.

I had a very pleasant stay and I would definitely come back without thinking twice. The staff is very kind and eager to please you, and Magic was very helpful, he helped us choose the right excursions, he gave us exactly the information we needed and we knew we had someone to turn to for anything. The swimming pool on the top floor is very ok and some great pictures come out, the coffee surprised me in a pleasant way, it's really good, unexpected.Dance evenings or various thematic events were always organized. Kaani Hotel, an excellent choice.

The towels were the ones that, from my point of view, are not really ok, they should be changed, I mean the ones in the room, and the breakfast is not very extensive, but as you get various things all over the island, I didn't put a high price on this.
