Rashu Hiyaa

Only steps from an amazing beach and quiet

This is a newish hotel, great wifi, outstanding staff, very helpful, lovely beach, with the hotel's restaurant The Kettle having great breakfast and varied menu.

I stay for 7 nights and I have good service people very friendly and the reception was very helpful.

This is small but comfortable butik guest house, very friendly staff,very clean!

Arguably the best hotel on this quaint little island community. Staff try very hard to make sure guests are comfortable and service levels are high. Location is the best and beach is so beautiful and secluded. Recommended to a budget traveler who wants to have family fun.

I will came back. I love it. Nice food.close to the beautiful beach. And very kind people

We had such a great stay in Dhiffushi. We wanted to experience local island life without the typical resort setting, and this place went above and beyond. The front desk staff was so pleasant and helpful. Jahid, always had a smile on his face and went out of his way to answer questions or accompany us if needes. The restaurant staff was always polite. Sai Babu, prepared the most beautiful outdoor beach dinner for us. It was so breathtaking. The beach is a stroll away. It was beautiful, clean, and had a Dhiffushi water sports counter available. Movich, the guy who heads this business, helped arrange a wonderful sand bank excursion with umbrellas, beach chairs, and a delicious lunch. Luckily we had the sand bank all to ourselves. It was so pristine and beautiful! Do all your activities on Dhiffushi! The other resorts are very overpriced! There are a few souvenirs shops and again, it's better to buy here. We did fishing here too and caught plenty of white and red snapper. The restaurant will cook your catch for a nominal fee. If you're looking to relax by the beach, are not expecting a resort style food spread, but generally good food, and want to fish, see dolphins, jet ski, hire a photographer (for a pvt photo shoot), visit a sandbank, experience true island life, then Dhiffushi is perfect! There is lots of construction on the island, and unfortunately areas around the island can be a bit dirty w debris, but at Rashu Hiyaa itself, it was great! Thank you!

It was a 4D3N stay. The room was very clean and in a good condition. We stayed in a superior double room and it is huge. The toilet comes with a jacuzzi. I feel it would be better if it has a roof covering the jacuzzi because when it rains, we couldn't enjoy the jacuzzi. There were a variety of foods at their in-house restaurant but breakfast menu can be improved. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Overall, me & husband had a wonderful stay at Rashu Hiyaa. Highly recommended.

Although the island is very small (just one km in length and 200 m large) it is quite charming and a good choice if you want to have a quiet holiday. The mosque is not close, so you can sleep through the night. Dhiffushi used to be - and still is - a fishing island, but besides the 5 or so hotels present, there are about another 10 to be built. Our advice would be to go there before that happens. With 15 hotels, the beaches may get a little crowded, especially during peak season. You can get to the island by local ferry from Male for 1.5 USD one way (3.25 hrs), so no need to fork out 300 $ for the speed boat.(40 min). The staff at the hotel are very friendly and helpful and made our stay even more memorable. You can snorkel from the beach to two concrete blocks and the amount of underwater fauna is amazing: trigger fish, angel fish, butterfly fish, surgeon fish, parrot fish, porcupine fish, unicorn fish, lion fish, trumpet fish, mooray eel, grouper, snapper, ray, sea urchin,clams, crown of thorns starfish, etc... I even managed to see a white sea snake.

This place is a gem! The staff are really helpful and friendly. Rooms are large and really clean. The property is located a few steps away from the bikini beach. The excursions provide good value for money, are well organised and can be undertaken at your own convenience. The Manager runs this place superbly. Will definitely be back.

Really worth the money. They give free pick up and drop which is soothing after a 3 hrs ferry. This is the best property on Diffushi Island. Rates are worth it. Morning breakfast is stumptous and has menu for vegetarians as well. Their charges for activities and water sports are also reasonable. I would recommend this hotel for anybody who can't afford a resort. I don't expect anything more from hotel.

Everything about this place makes me want to return. It's on a small, friendly island that can be walked around very easily. The room was very comfortable, and the restaurant varied its buffet dishes each night. A big plus here was the value, both in the meals and the activities the hotel offers. Those activities match those of a big expensive resort, but without the ridiculous markup. I enjoyed snorkeling with the sea turtles, and the night fishing trip was a highlight. After just an hour of line fishing, we had about 10 fish. The restaurant prepared my largest white snapper for dinner, and it was so big I could barely finish it.

Vi hade tre jättebra dagar på hotellet. Bra service och trevligt bemötande från all personal. Bra storlek på rummet. Rent och fräscht. Nära stranden.

E' andato male dal momento del check-in 1. Arrivati al porto nessuno é venuto a prenderci, quando ci avevano chiesto tutte le info 2. arrivati per il check-in, ci hanno fatto vedere dove era il ristorante e non hanno risposto alle nostre domande 3. come funzionava per i lettini e l'ombrellone lo abbiamo scoperto da soli in spiaggia grazie ad altri turisti 4. il secondo giorno durante la colazione ho chiesto un espresso e non mi é stato fatto perché si doveva pagare; ho avuto una discussione con il responsabile su: "come si permette un loro dipendente di pensare che io non me lo possa permettere e non possa pagare" ma nessuna scusa data. 5. il quarto giorno scopriamo che la camera non é stata pulita perché non abbiamo lasciato la chiave alla reception, ma non l'abbiamo mai lasciata nei giorni precedenti quindi? Chiedo come mai e dal banco della reception tirano fuori un cartello con il quale vi era scritto così, ma se non l'avessi chiesto nessuna l'aveva esposto prima; comunque erano le le 16.40 chiedo se é possibile avere la camera pulita lasciando le chiavi "adesso", il responsabile mi dice di se e poi quando ritorniamo verso le 18.30 scopriamo che la stanza non é stata pulita perché a suo detto il personale per pulirla non era più presente in Hotel, e qui mi domando, essendo un responsabile, sai o no quali sono i turni di lavoro dei dipendenti? Neanche gli asciugamani puliti ci hanno dato Che dire? cambiate il personale alla reception sarebbe meglio

El personal lo mejor, aunque se nota que todavía no están al nivel de calidad que tendrían que tener. Como es normal en muchos países todo se lo toman con mucha calma, pero cuando tienes una incidencia la resuelven con efectividad. Nivel altísimo de limpieza y desajustes soportables con un poco de paciencia.

В целом нам все понравилось. Предраться действительно не к чему. В отеле принимают только доллары, евро. Руфии не принимают. Номер брали без завтраков. И совершенно не пожалели. Мы или не ели или ходили в другое кафе не далеко от отеля. Там в меню в цене были уже внесены налоги. Кафе на берегу. Название из цифр. Один раз пришли на ужин в ресторан. Ни в какую не хотели давать меню. Ибо. 15$ и шведский (+22% они потом напомнят) стол на человека. В общем один раз допросились меню. Из 9 заказанных пунктов не было 7. Блюда были простыми для страны где добывают морепродукты. Том ям например. От ресторана в общем не в восторге. Он кстати переехал в отдельное здание. Очень не понравилось то что вместе с туристическим налогом (3$ с человека за сутки) взяли 1$ за бронь через хотелс. Почему так объяснить не смогли. Номера чистые. Убирают по требованию. В душе есть мыльница. Но мыла нет) Фотографии отеля в целом соответствуют действительности. Только уже все не такое яркое. Есть джакузи за 25$ в час. Бесплатный настрольный футбол и пин-понг. Есть прокат велосипедов. К концу нашего отпускк остался только один детский. Взлослых нет. Трансфер от паромного причала до отеля. С Мале или аэропорта платишь сам. Но они подскажут как. В целом все очень добрые и отзывчивые. На мой взгляд лучшее расположение отеля на острове. Не далеко есть пляж. Там течение дикое и иногда приплывает мусор. Чайные пакетики например. С другой стороны острова есть замечательные 2 пляжа. Отдыхали там.

Insgesamt eine schöne Anlage. Es wird sehr auf Sauberkeit geachtet. Personal freundlich, immer bemüht behilflich zu sein. Es wird zur Zeit angebaut, man bekommt es auch mit, was ein bischen stört. Aber Baustellen sind in der Regel nicht ewig.

The hotel was clean and the staff was super friendly and helpfull. The food on the restaurands buffet was ok, breakfast was a little dissapointing needed more fruits/vegetables and variaty.

The best place in Dhiffushi! Everythg superb!! Staff are awsome, specially Ahmed. Highly recommended

Ottima struttura con personale molto disponibile e rispettoso, posizione fantastica e sabbia molto fine. L'unico piccolo inconveniente è il servizio Cucina dell'Hotel che non dispone di uno Cheff all'altezza della cucina internazionale e predilige dei piatti sempre cucina mista asiatica e locale, Per poter mangiare una bella grigliata di pesce, visto l'aspettativa della Location, sono stato costretto a cambiare ristorante, dove economicamente solo una differenza di un paio di dollari, presentavano una cucina ricca, varia e Internazionale. Penso che cambiando lo Cheff l'albergo potrebbe arrivare anche a 9.9 come votazione finale. N.B. << Non è stata solo una mia impressione per la cucina, tanto che mi incontravo con altri ospiti dell'Hotel di varie nazionalità, nell'altro ristorante e tutti dicevano la stessa cosa e in più segnalavano che nel Hotel Rashu Hiyaa nella sala ristorante vi era poca luce.>>>
