Do not stay here
This place seems like somebody used to care but not any more. Despite prior notice there was no-one to meet us off the ferry as the guy had fallen asleep. He then walked us to the place, photocopied our passports with his phone and someone nodded to our room. That was the last we saw of anyone in charge. We had paid for breakfast but there was no sign of that or any facilities to provide it. The room itself was dirty, empty for a long time and clearly just given a quick clean 5 minutes before we arrived, though they left the cornetto in the freezer. There were various shady characters around all of whom claimed not to speak English. We managed to get some toilet paper on the 3rd day which they left outside. Its normal in the local Maldives islands to book your excursions and transport through your accommodation, with no-one around this was impossible so we missed out and will forever have bad memories of Mathiveri the island. We got the early ferry and left the key in the door on departure. I would recommend staying on Bodufulhudoo next door, much better atmosphere, and visit Mathiveri for the day.

Stället fanns inte mer, men enligt er var vi välkomna dit. Ingen tog emot , vi fick själva ordna allt. Placerades på ett hemskt ställe. Stod bara ut en natt, för detta fick vi betala fantasisumman 95 dollar. Flyttade till Ari villa. Helt fantastiskt!!!
