Our stay at Ayala Ocean View was superb! We stayed for 4 nights and were so sad to leave! The food was great, rooms were incredibly clean (and also cleaned twice a day!) and spa was so lovely. The staff are incredibly friendly and couldn't do enough for us - they organised sun beds for us on the beach, lent us snorkel equipment and even let us shower in a spare room after we had checked out. Would not hesitate to recommend!

I had an absolutely fantastic stay, the staff are incredible, rooms clean and spacious and the food absolutely delicious. I was nervous about being a solo traveller, and this wasn’t a problem at all, variety of guests and friendly staff made for a very welcome stay! Will definitely be returning!

I had a great three night stay at Ayala Ocean View. The room was spotless, spacious, bright, and everything worked! Also very quiet for a peaceful night's sleep. Nice views from my top floor room and patio outside. The staff were kind, attentive, and respectful. The shower was a bit fickle--alternating unpredictability between cold and scalding hot, but this was just a small inconvenience.

The hotel and staff were wonderful but I had to leave after one night because of the banging and drilling. I couldn’t sit on the balcony, it was constant noise.
I transferred to Maafushi

Hotel was the best you could imagine I was with my son, which is a fussy eater he love the food over there me to. Best restaurant on the Gulham is in Ayala. Big choice from burger to chicken tikka masala. All the staff was amazing, very helpful and kind. I had very good feel about that hotel. From the moment you book the room they looking after you till the moment they get you back to Airport. You can prearrange transportation from Male Airport for $25 per person paid at the hotel and contact through the WhatsApp.
Very very clean hotel they do clean rooms twice a day.
Thank you to the Francis from reception and the other young lady and lovely people in the restaurant and all the others which I don’t know the names but they make my stay very memorable.
Ps the air condition works great as everything else in that hotel they even have premier league Chanel.
Thank you very much

We stayed one week in the "Super Cute" two-bedroom suite. The rooms were high quality, comfortable, and immaculate. The staff (housekeeping, front desk, restaurant, and excursion) were all fantastic and detail-oriented.
We ate nearly all our meals at the Benha restaurant on site, where everyone could find something they liked.
We did one excursion, snorkeling with sharks, and, on top of enjoying the experience itself, I felt like the trip was managed very well.
When we visited Gulhi Beach, the staff would set out chairs for us under an umbrella.
Some things to keep in mind:
1. Gulhi is a local island, so no alcohol and you must dress modestly when going around the (very small island).
2. The beach area is nice, but small. There are watersport rentals available.
3. The hotel has regularly scheduled speedboat transfers.
4. The island does burn trash. We only noticed this on one day of our stay.
5. In Maldives, traveling on Fridays is more difficult, so best to avoid Friday afternoons for travel.
6. Gulhi is small, so options are limited for everything.

We really loved our stay at this hotel. It was the best choice ever. The staff was really friendly and helpful, the facilities were great, and the room had everything we needed. The location was good, food was extremely tasty and diverse. The hotel made our stay there very enjoyable and for sure we want to return there one day.

I was quite surprised by the positive reviews I read, but after staying at Ayala, I can confidently state that they are mostly paid/fake
Pros:
- Gulhi is not far from Male, quick to get to, speedboat service working fine
- Beach is near the hotel
- Sunbed/umbrellas available
- Excursions
Cons:
- booked a room for 3, turned out to be a regular room for 2 with a cot near the bed. Rooms itself is very small, so making 3 people stay there is inhumane. Cot had no mattress on it, felt like sleeping on the floor
- rooms get 'cleaned' twice a day, but they hardly replace sheets and provide fresh towels only once a week. They don't take out the used/dirty towels. Floor is not being cleaned
- no robes, no slippers. Problems with hot water, very hard to regulate the temperature and water in the shower constantly and randomly goes from hot to cold. Hot water also smells unpleasant. TV in the room is basically useless: not set up, does not connect to internet
- no variety in breakfast, always the same. Dinners differ, but overall food quality is average. Shortage of deserts and, especially, fruits, which is quite disappointing.
- waiters seem to take care only of the big families staying in, they set up tables for them in advance and no one is allowed to use that area. Should be constantly reminded to proved basic stuff like tissues. Staff may also confuse you with false promises (eg. promised to provide robes, mattress, turned out to not have those)
Wouldn't stay here the second time

We started our Maldives holiday with a visit to Guhli Island (small local fisherman idland) staying at Ayala. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were looked after very well. The hotel is very nice on a very quiet island with a beautiful beach. We had free designated sun loungers in a prime spot on Bakini beach. We chose half board, but we found outselves drawn back for all other meals because the food was so good. We would love to go back and visit again one day.
