Bougainvillea Inn - Maldives

The location is perfect with easy access to amenities and the beach. The staff is exceptionally friendly and professional, offering excellent assistance for excursions, vegan breakfasts, and laundry.

We’ve had an amazing stay here, mainly thanks to Sotte and the great team! They were always around to give information on anything we needed. The hotel is right on the beach and has a very good and reasonably priced restaurant. The excursions are fun and affordable (would recommend the shark and turtle snorkelling). You’ll have the most relaxing time here!!

The hotel is not well maintained and the staff is not helpfull. We were paying 80 eur per night for a place that we should be paying 30-40 eur per night maximum. We arrived at 2 pm to Fulidhoo and we asked the staff for a restaurant but they said they didn't know and that we could check the restaurant of the hotel. I can't believe they do not know the restaurants of an island that is 400 meters long, I think there are 3 restaurants only. The hotel is not very well mainteined, the wood is rotten and there are lots of humidity patches, mainly in the bathroom. The water is running very slowly at the shower. At the terrace there are two chairs and one was full of fungus and it had a ketchup's bag of the previous guests on it. There are also lacking tiles at the terrace. They aren't flexible at all. Breakfast is from 7:30 h and we asked one day if it would be posible to have it at 7:15 h because we had an excursion. They said that they would ask the chef but the day after there was no one there. Finally, the chef ended his shower and started making the breakfast which was ready about 7:45 h so we had 5 minutes to take it. They don't have coffee for breakfast and we had to buy our own. Breakfast is not very very bad but the juice is mostly a powder one and they give you fruit for one person only. They also have a chained amazonian blue and yellow parrot. It is not pleasant to see a poor chained animal exposed as a clown while you are eating. Furthermore, its yells doesn't let you rest or have a nap during day time. The bedroom is acceptable and the bed is ok, as you can check on the pictures they have which are mostly of the bed and the sea or beach. Bougainvillea hotel is one of the cheapest in Fulidhoo but it is too expensive for what they offer.
