Ocean Pearl Maldives at Gulhi Island

Very close to Gulhi beach at 100 metres and thus very convenient. Staff very friendly and helpful. The property needs refurbishing as soon as possible.

The hotel has a perfect location, the best on the island: it is in 10 meters only from the beautiful main entry to the bikini beach. The beach is so big and clean! Umbrellas are for an additional fee but there's no need in them cause you can sit wherever you want under the tree. I had a cosy room with a balcony, on the second floor. In the room, you have everything you need: an air conditioner, a kettle, a fridge, lots of lights, towels etc. Cleaning is upon request. Wifi was good. The staff is extremely friendly and polite, always ready to help, they helped me so many times with different questions, the kindest people!! A team of divers live at the hotel and leads excursions for guests from the whole island. Snorkeling with them was the best experience in my life! I've seen colorful fish, big sharks, dolphins, and even a sea turtle. For breakfast, you have a choice between continental and maldivian breakfasts, I personally loved the last one, it was delicious. Always fresh fruits and juice before breakfast. Sometimes in the evening, the hotel prepares barbecue dinner with fresh fish from the sea and with traditional music, such an authentic experience! There are several restaurants on the island to have dinner, including the hotel restaurant. They're more or less of the same quality and price, liked local food there. Gulhi is very calm and tiny island, just 30 min on the boat from Male island. (The transfer to Gulhi from the airport costs $25.) There were not many tourists on the island, when I stayed. No noise at night at all, so if you're looking for calmness, this is probably the better choice for you than Maafushi. Also it feels safe if you're a female solo traveler. For me, everything was just perfect, loved the place, the food, the beach, the excursions. I think the guesthouse is the best price/quality option on the island. Thanks so much❤️

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were exceptionally clean, spacious, and well-maintained, offering a high level of comfort. The overall cleanliness of the hotel was impressive, and the atmosphere felt welcoming and relaxing. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and pleasant stay.

Staying at Ocean Pearl Maldives was short but truly memorable. Although we only had one day to enjoy Gulhi Island, the staff's warmth and attentiveness made every moment count. They knew it was my birthday and went out of their way to make it special, decorating our bed with fresh flowers and even suggesting a birthday cake (which we paid for ourselves, but the thoughtful gesture was appreciated nonetheless). It was a lovely surprise and added a personal touch to the stay. The property itself is clean, comfortable, and just a quick walk from the stunning Bikini Beach. The water was crystal clear, and the beach was peaceful, perfect for a relaxing afternoon.

Yes, absolutly a place to remember A nice and quiet place. Good service and nice employies. Very nice maritime style.
