Ellaidhoo Maldives by Cinnamon Reviews

This hotel has a great reef but is seen better days. It needs to get revamped. It has one of the best reefs in the Maldives so you have to cope with all the faults of the hotel. I booked the all-inclusive for $137 a night plus 26% tax and service charge. Don't come in May All you get is rain rain rain rain rain rain rain rain rain rain. The food was okay. They put me on the second floor and I had an ocean view. Good thing about this hotel is that they have a washing package. If you stay less than four nights I think it's $22 and they'll wash everything that you own. If you stay four to seven days I believe I spent $32 for their laundry package which is unlimited laundry. Their drinks are okay nothing named brand. If you're on the all-inclusive and you want carlsberg then they have to put it in your room because they just serve beer on tap that's lion. I would stay there again because of the reef but the hotel is absolutely nothing special.

Ugly hotel architecture and island Very Unfriendly staff especially in front office and dive center Standard food ( dessert similar in airplane) Escape this place, no interest at all

Very nice resort island, with personnel always ready to help and always there for you. Food is impressive and various plates are served. The bars are serving very good cocktails and in the evenings there are good entertainment programs. The minus I would highlight is the activities offered, different kind of trips on the sea, but if not enough subscribers, excursion is cancelled or it can become a private one for a very high price. Also as e negative feature, the convenience store displays shameless prices, really offensive; I would understand these commercial excesses for unnecessary merchandise, but when you put a price of 50 dollars on a small bottle of sunscreen, is obvious they just want to rip off tourists.

This is the twelfth time I have been to Maldives. The biggest highlight of this island is that the food is very delicious. The hotel buffet has a variety of main dishes every day. In the eight days we stayed, there was seafood barbecue one day, steak one day, hot cabbage beef one day, Turkish kebab meat sandwich one day, etc. Anyway, they are all delicious, especially the variety of Western pastries and fruits, which are always changing. Every day, there are fried pasta and salads on the spot, which are very delicious! The hotel water house has a disadvantage that there is no stairs to go into the water (so I suggest not using the water house) because the sea view beach house has stairs at the door to go into the sea, so you can go into the sea to see fish anytime and anywhere, which is very convenient. In addition, the hotel beach is not good, but the diving is great. You can see a lot of fish wherever you go into the water. In addition, the hotel front desk manager is very enthusiastic and attentive. When we proposed to go to the island on the first day, due to the hotel's poor arrangement, we wasted six hours waiting in vain. The manager sent us a return seaplane to compensate for our time loss. Thank you very much. This hotel is very suitable for a trip of more than ten days. My wife and I like it very much and will go there again next time we have the opportunity!

I was very dissatisfied with this hotel. I notified the hotel of pick-up well in advance (and clearly informed the hotel that I would arrive in Male at 12 o'clock), but when I arrived at the airport, I couldn't find anyone holding a sign to pick me up, so I had to go to the E3 counter to find a staff member. Then I was told that because he had to pick up two other guests who arrived in Male at 15:00, it would take 15:30 to arrange for us to take the boat to the island. In fact, we did not take the boat to the island until 15:50. (I was forced to go to the airport lounge at my own expense. This arrangement is unacceptable. I was asked to wait for 3 and a half hours. At least the hotel should arrange a lounge.) When I arrived on the island, the front desk said that there were only orders on the first day and subsequent orders. The agent has refunded the money and they have not received the money, so I can only stay for one day (further bookings cannot be arranged, even if I took out the hotel confirmation form, they did not recognize it and asked me to find the agent). They were anxious to ask me to pay US$420 for the boat trip for two people to the island (but my order clearly stated US$404, and they did not approve the order of US$404, so they forced me to pay an extra US$16). After I contacted Ctrip, Ctrip After looking for a hotel, the hotel said it had found the reservation and could check in, but it had already been more than 2 hours before we went to the island (guests who went to the island during the same period got their rooms more than an hour before me). I arrived in Male at 12 o'clock. By the time I got the room, it was already after 19:30 in the evening. Excluding the hour of sailing, I wasted more than 6 hours waiting and checking in. I am very dissatisfied with the service of this hotel, so I leave a negative review. I hope everyone will not be fooled again and suffer the same experience as me. This is terrible! And the scariest thing is that after we got the room, there was a door in the room that could be opened directly to enter the room where there were already guests nearby. After we asked, their staff closed the door in another room. In case we didn't find it, we thought it was the toilet door. If we open it, what should other guests do? What should they do if they say something is missing? In short, I think the management of this hotel is very chaotic and it is not worth staying.

The ecological environment is very good, the diving environment is amazing, except for the front desk, other staff are very good, the room is simple but also very comfortable
