Guest Reviews
- EGOR (10/5): То, что надо👍 - Всё отлично! Место тихое, со всеми удобствами. Территория небольшая, но красиво оформлена. Бесперебойные вайфай и горячая вода в ванной. Достаточно просторный номер с холодильником, кондиционером и 2 бутылками воды, что по приезду весьма кстати. Терраса, где можно было высушить вещи. Полотенца и все необходимые принадлежности для душа в наличии. Также можно было взять велосипед и принадлежности для снорклинга. В соседнем помещении кухня, чай и кофе, есть кулер. Персонал внимательный, работу свою выполняют хорошо. Организовали трансфер на спидботе, встретили очень вкусным приветственным напитком :), на обратный путь снабдили ланч-боксом. С радостью вернусь снова! Нареканий нет. Ну разве только отсутствие перегородки в ванной - после принятия душа вода растекалась по полу и не сразу уходила. Но это не критично
- Асель (10/5): - Все было супер, спасибо за классный отдых хозяину.👍🏽
- Alexandra (9/5): -
- Roman (5/5): -
- Popidze (7/5): -
- Artem (9/5): -
- Ioana Cristina (7/5): - The staff was polite and helpful. They provided snorkeling equipment and bicycles during our stay, which made getting to the beach much easier. The bathroom had mold, limescale buildup, and an unpleasant odor. The room also had an unpleasant smell unless a room deodorizer was used.
- Svetlana (10/5): -
- Maria (10/5): -
- Hieu (9/5): - Vị trí, nhiệt tình
- Ekaterina (10/5): Хороший отель! - Отличный просторный номер. В наличии есть велосипеды, маски, ласты - все бесплатно.
Шикарный очень обильный завтрак в мальдивской стиле!
Очень дружелюбный хозяин, бесплатно организовал трансфер между отелями (я жила в нескольких)
- Анна (10/5): -
- Santiago (9/5): Calidad precio muy bien - El desayuno muy bueno, te dejan gafas de bucear. Y son muy amables Muy cerca de la mezquita y se oye el canto desde la habitación
- Khamidov (9/5): - Дружелюбный персонал и хозяин. Хозяин по моей просьбе забронировал спидбот.
Бельё меняли регулярно (чистое, несырое, без запаха). Кровать удобная. Номер небольшой но уютный. Столик для завтрака прямо у номера. Есть кухня, где при желании можно приготовить самому. Чай, кофе не ограничено.
Немного однообразные скучные завтраки. Но очень сытные и каждый день разные фрукты. Очень рано выезжать на самолёт (6:30), но это никак не связано с отелем (это расписание спидботов). В дорогу дали ланч бокс, который очень выручил в аэропорту, и связочку бананов.
- Renata (10/5): Zdecydowanie polecam! - Lokalizacja, darmowe rowery, personel dostępny o każdej porze dnia i nocy, cappuccino. Wszystko super. Panowie bardzo się starali. Zrobili mi śniadanko wcześniej, ponieważ miałam rano wycieczkę. Podczas mojego pobytu byłam sama w hotelu, ale czułam się bardzo bezpiecznie. Rowery są odrobinę stare, ale dla niektórych może być to zaletą 🙂 Gdy zapytałam o ofertę wycieczek, to właściciel wrócił do mnie z informacją dzień później, gdy sama już wykupiłam w lokalnym biurze.
- Sergei (10/5): -
- Stasya0110 (9/5): - Отличное месторасположение отеля 👍 приятная атмосфера, в номере чисто и уютно, доброжелательные хозяева. Завтрак очень сытный, свежие фрукты и соки были каждый день, чай и кофе - весь день, свободный доступ к кухне, можете приготовить что-то сами. В отеле есть маски и ласты, есть велосипеды (рабочие, но они требуют ухода).
Вокруг острова очень близко коралловый риф, каждый день мы плавали с рыбками и черепахами 🐠🐢. Пляжи все чистые, остров тоже прибран, полно кафешек, где можно вкусно покушать. Стоит отметить, что это гостевой дом, а не отель 5⭐, уборка и смена белья не каждый день. Терраса без вида, но одежду высушить можно.
- Aida (10/5): Alojamiento perfecto en Thoddoo. - Me encantó. Fui con mi pareja, nos recibieron con un coco buenísimo de bienvenida. Nos organizaron el speedboat de Rasdhoo a Thoddoo, super bien.
A la llegada, nos recibió Ali, muy atento y servicial. Nos explicó algunas cosas de la isla y nos ofreció actividades organizadas.
Habitación muy espaciosa, limpia y cama muy cómoda.
Podías escoger entre desayuno internacional o local, los dos estaban buenísimos y te preguntaban el día antes a que hora lo querías hecho.
Nosotros hicimos el tour fruit, llevándonos por los diferentes campos de fruta junto con sus compañeros, que nos lo explicaron todo genial! Al final de la excursión nos comimos una sandía delante del mar buenísima.
Las bicicletas eran totalmente gratis, y nosotros las cogimos todos los días.
La bikini beach pequeña está muy cerca y la grande en bici también. Muy buena localización.
Repetiría 100% sin dudarlo.
- Sergei (10/5): Exceptional - Hi everyone!
So we visited a paradisiacal place called the Maldives.
Initially, we wanted to go on a trip to a resort, but when we began to study the issue of traveling and staying in the Maldives, we decided to try a tour with constant trips and excursions.
And in the end, we booked a house on booking.com, bought tickets and decided that we will plan everything on arrival on vacation.
We’ve booked Athiriveli Guest house.
Two owners (brothers), Name ALi, helped us with booking a boat from the airport to the island.
They were always in touch (in Whatsapp) and answered questions.
Upon arrival, we were greeted with coconuts with cold milk inside.
Breakfast was every day - two types to choose from (local and continental) and fruit for breakfast (papaya, watermelon).
Beautiful place.
Close to shops and cafes.
We went on foot, because the distances are small, and we like to walk.
We visited both Sunrise and Sunset beaches every day
Will we come here again???
Definitely yes! Thanks for amazing our vacation.
- Tina (9/5): Nice stay for reasonable price - The prooerty is very close to small beach and the owner is very kind and generoys person. He offered free rent if bijes, masks fir snorkle, excursion to fruit farm where they cut watermelon and papaya for you. Also to me personally he gave as a gift a kilo of lical maracuja , maldivian flag and a painting by russian artist Zulfya . And tge painting was the best gift I ever got from a hotel owner!
The hotel is very good value for money, its exactly what you are paying for. You can use kitchen, you can ask a hotel worker Choton to help you with noght fish market or to see sparkling plankton, you can choose your breakfast - lots of extras. No balcony, dark room, breakfast needs improvement, long walk to big beach.
- Isidora (9/5): Superb - Everyone was very helpful and kind. Food was good, location was good and I would recommend it for the solo travelers.
- Patrick (10/5): Delightful short stay in Thoddoo - We were warmly greeted and picked up from the public ferry. Then given a quick tour of town essentials eg shops & restaurants on arrival then after we had dropped our sacks a tour of the island & beaches. Clear pride is shown in the property by the brothers that own it. The room was very clean & comfortable. The breakfast was good, filling & a choice of Maldivian or continental (we had one of each). There was tea & coffee to help yourself to in a very clean kitchen which is available for communal use. We enjoyed cycling round the island on the bicycles which were freely available at the guesthouse. With beautiful beaches, a sea full of turtles nearby restaurants & supermarkets there wasn’t anything more we needed. They even came to take us for our 6:30am ferry which we hadn’t expected! Thank you! Nothing
- Roxana (5/5): Decent stay, average price, but expected better (cleaner) conditions. - Is very close to the Sunrise Beach and there is a good restaurant nearby, Foodland. The property provides bikes and beach towels (which are not always very clean though). The bed was comfortable though. The staff, Serkan, is very helpful. I am honestly very surprised by the high rating. The future is outdated, the curtains are not blackouts. I even found one cockroach one morning (couldn’t have come from outside). The towels were not the cleanest either. Bad water draining in the bathroom. The breakfast is very average, the Maldivian one is the better choice.
- Galina (9/5): Superb - Great value for money, very nice staff and host, helped us a lot throughout the stay, free bikes to explore the island
- Ali (10/5): Exceptional - nice hotel and hospitable owner.
- Aishath (9/5): Superb -
- Anastasia (10/5): I had a positive experience staying in Athiriveli - I had a positive experience staying in Athiriveli. This place is highly recommended for long stay. The location of guest house is good, supermarkets, pharmacy and cafes and restaurants are located nearby. Sunrise bikini beach (perfect for snorkeling) and port are in five minutes walk distance. Sunset bikini (turtle) beach is located in 15 minutes by walk or short ride by bicycle provided for free in a guest house.
The room is clean and refreshed every two days. Drinking water is tasty and unlimited. Beach towels are provided and changed with cleaning.
You never stay hungry in Athiriveli. Fresh continental /local breakfast is included in stay and carefully served with polite hosts every morning . Apart of it you can cook your favorite dishes by yourself whenever is needed.
Welcoming landlord is soul of this place, he quickly reacts on any request and question and do his best to make the stay the most comfortable and interesting on Thoddoo. He can give helpful information about the island and organize fishing and any other water adventures. The last day Ali’s sightseeing tour makes traveling Thoddoo especially memorable and the island charms completely (if you were strong not being fallen in love in it yet) and you are looking forward to be back there in your next vacation soon.
- Andreea (10/5): Enjoyable comfortable stay - Quite a lot of care is put into it, the host has been very friendly and explained a few thinga about the island to us. Very clean, and especially loved and appreciated that we had unlimited water. You had about 1.5l in the room (glass bottles) and you could refill whenever you needed with filtered water, and this reduces also the need of plastic, so really appreciated that.
They also provide free bikes. When we first arrived, they couldn’t be used, but then they fixed them. To note they are quite basic, and you cannot change speed or the height of the chair, but depending on how tall you are, they are ok.
Another thing they provide for free are snorkels (we didn’t use them, because we had our own) and fins. For the fins, quite a lot of them have defects, and they don’t have all sizes, but we managed to use them once.
(As a fun note, after Thoddoo we went to a fency resort, where you had to pay quite a bit to rent a bike or rent snorkels, so we really appreciated even more that in Thoddoo we had them for free, even if they weren’t in the best shape) Even if it’s a bit further from the beach, it’s still 15min walking distance, so not far, and you are also surrounded by good restaurants, and close to the port, where you can take some of the trips.
To note that breakfast was provided, but it was the same every day and quite basic (you could choose local option or continental), so that could be improved, but overall it was ok, so not much to complain.
- Martin (10/5): We highly reccommend this accommodation, the room was nice and clean and worthy money and especially owner and room guy - The room was nice and clean. Also we have a terrace in facility. The breakfest were great especially traditional maldives breakfest (tuna + coconut) - every day fresh meal and fresh fruits. Owner and also room guy were very helpful. They clean our room whenever we want, they change everyday towels for us (also beach towels), when we asked them they also do laundry for our clothes. We have still a lot of water , it wasn’t necessary to buy bottle of water everyday because they have filtrated water which you can use all day for drinking.
Also the owner was very nice because he managed for us a ferry and even when we had to check out early they take us with the car to the port. And for the last day they make for everyone who was accomodate excursion around the island (history of the island, we were on plant fields, they gave us a lot of fresh fruits from the fields and also they take us to feed little goats.
- Oleksii (10/5): Awesome, totally recommend - When I come to Athri Velli, I was greeted with welcome coconut drink and this was perfect because of very hot weather! That what I really need after 3 hours flight and 1 hour on the boat.
After checking-in the manager (or owner) Ali told me to show the island.
This kind proposal I seen first time in hotels and agreed. This was very nice! So he was invite me to sit on passenger seat on bike and start to show me best places in Thoodoo.
We also go to the beach with perfect sunset! Ali shows me where to buy local fruit and a very good place for dinner. I was very tired after flight, but happy to see sunset from the first day!
You know, sometimes you can find a place, where you feel like home. There is that place from first day of stay.
The room was not big, but very comfy and clean. And quiet on territory. Location also perfect, around 7 minutes walk to bikini beach, and even free bikes and snorkeling equipment was provided!
And what even more important - I can pay with my visa credit card.
After going to the beach, it was very very hot outside, but inside the room can use air conditioner + fan and it was very comfortable there.
And at morning stuff give me a Maldivian breakfast with perfect quality juice! Very big portions, so I put half to the fridge for evening!
P.s. WiFi is enough to make zoom calls and YouTube videos! Perfect.
Thank you for this great experience on the great Thoodoo! Here is all you need, so totally recommend.
- Chahrazad (10/5): Exceptional - We had a great stay at Ali's hotel. They took great care of us and they even took us on a tour to visit the fruit fields and gave us coconut to drink and passion fruit. The breakfast was good and tasty.
- Talal (10/5): Simply Amazing! - Everything was super nice! from the timely and responsive communication to the location, breakfast, free bicycles, room comfort etc, Ali is so informative and guides about Thoddoo in depth. Support staff is amazing too. Timely pick up and drop at speed boat location. Definitely value for money!
- Andjela (10/5): Exceptional -
- Miguel (10/5): - Ali and his brother are amazing. They take care of you every single moment. Transportation to Thoddoo was a little intense for the waves but since you arrive to the pier they are there waiting for you. You get a coconut once you are at the hotel since there everything is marvelous. If you really want to live the local experience of Maldives you definitely need to visit this island. Dont forget to try the papaya and mango juice.I love the papaya.
- Ridik2200 (10/5): Exceptional - Every day started with breakfast, no matter what time I woke up. Morning met with the reception of exotic fresh fruits and refreshing juice. It was a very nice addition to the service and you could also take a free bike to go around.
- Sergiy (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing place, with great value for what you pay. Tasty breakfasts, really short walk to a beach, nice restaurants and shops just behind the corner. Definitely coming back.
- Matej (8/5): Very good - good location bathroom was outdated and need renovation, the closet is broken and you cant move the dors.
- Zoltán (10/5): Exceptional - Recommended. Host was super. Good communication before trip, arranged speed boat and picking up at boat. Pictures valid, daily cleaning and good breakfast.
Would choose again.
- Martina (10/5): Very nice place in a good location. - Very nice and top clean rooms, tasty local breakfast and very kind helpful host. Location is perfect - near to the beach. The hotel also rent bikes free of charge and has a kitchen that guests can use - which is just perfect. The island and local people are very nice. I will definitely come back.
- Praveen (9/5): It was amazing for me. i can suggest this property to my friends with out hesitation. - Staying in Athirivi was wonderful. Very good staffs, Excellent hospitality. Very calm and quiet area, Room was very clean and good ambiance. Food was excellent, and access of kitchen for own use gives a special feeling.Can suggest to friends without hesitation Nothing more, they are doing wonderful things.
- Nattzy (10/5): Thoddoo, the true paradise in Maldives - Thoddoo and Athiriveli is the perfect place to stay if you want to experience a local island and get first class familiar service from Ali and his staff. There are two tourist beaches, both very nice and clean. The hotel offers free buggy transportation. They also help you arranging different island tours, snorkelling, diving and boat trips. The Maldivian breakfast is amazing! The best restaurant is Kavaab. This was my second time at Athiriveli and got a free guided tour at the local plantations and could pick my own fruit from the trees. Very priceworthy and warmly recommended!
- Lovro (9/5): Great people, niice buggy - Very friendly staff. We really liked the buggy/golf cart it was very helpful and fun. Our little baby enjoyed the rides and the hospitality. Breakfast could be better.
- Sinan (10/5): Awesome - Muhammed, Ali and their staff helped us in every situation from beginning to end. So owner and staff are perfect. Thoddoo is very good island with fresh fruits and tropical trees. Big beach is amazing. Although we encountered rain sometimes, sea and beach are always great. Nothing.
- Alexey (8/5): Отзыв об Athiri Veli: - Минусы;
1. Плохой интернет в отеле.
2. Грязная общая кухня
3. Пахло в душе из канализации.
4. Однообразные завтраки (но на острове сделать еду разнообразной невозможно).
Плюсы:
5. Менеджер Дима очень отзывчив.
6. Уборка очень хорошая (хороший работник Садом)
7. Отличная атмосфера релаксации в отеле. Это даже не отель, а какой-то пионерлагерь. Менеджер Дима великолепен в своей радушности и не полной обязательности. Даже если он сразу не выполняет, что обещал, - то не обижаешься на него из-за всеобщей атмосферы расслабленности, царящей в отеле...
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The property was quaint and nice. Kudos to the staff for being extremely helpful, warm and courteous. They really took care of us for the entirety of our trip.
