I was provided a room at this hotel due to my original hotel booking advising they had temporarily closed due to a maintenance problem. I had no problem with the room apart from the fact it had no TV which my original booking stated was included. The only problems I had related to boat tours. After checking in I made bookings on 3 shared tours. My first tour was the evening fishing trip advertised from 4pm to 9pm. I was picked up from my hotel at 5.30pm and taken to the port then shuttled out to a big boat where we started fishing at 6pm. We were returned to the port at 8.45pm. Even though I lost 1.5 hours of fishing time I was still charged the full cost of the tour. My second tour was to Madivaru Island & Madivaru Finolhu sandbank departing at 10.30am. I waited in the lobby area of the hotel until 11am. No appearance and no communication from anyone. My third tour was a morning fishing trip departing at 5.30am. I waited in the lobby of the hotel until 6am and again no appearance or communication from anyone. I was also owed $5US but on the day I checked out the reception guy was no where to be seen. and no attempt to repay me had been made earlier.

I booked for a weekend including transport from Male and everything was in order. They were quite professional in the beginning. The day before arriving I contacted them to establish the departure point for the speedboat only to be told a few hours later thst thry had actually decided to cancel my booking as they had received a larger group booking and needed the accommodation. Now I know it's not a charity but I wonder if they would have told me if I hadn't queried? After I vented my frustration there was a lame offer of finding alternative hotel but I had lost interest. I went to Ukulhas instead and this is a great alternative to Rasdhoo especially for divers. It's not as busy. Reasonably priced and a much better experience.
