I had previously stayed in Male city on two previuos visits and found it a pleasant place to stay. In the intervening 12 years since my last visit the entire Hulumale area has been developed and has become something of a dormitory suburb to Male city with the completion of the China Friendship Bridge. Male is now a somehwat traffic choaked hot and relatively dirty city with Hulhumale a relatively quiet place to stay with plenty of good restaurants and hotels to suit almost any budget. In addition there are plenty of options to keep you occupied from shark and manta dives, island tours and windsurfing, paddle boarding and even kite surfing advertised by tour groups located in the area.

Hulhumale is great for crashing out after a long flight or for staying the night before an early flight. It is also a good base for visiting Male by ferry. The long straight beach is made up of broken coral and soft white sand. The off shore reef protects the beach and make swimming safe for children. There are also areas of shade from the palm trees for those who don't want to stay out in the sun.
There are numerous cafes and restaurants of all kinds.

I prefer Hulhulmale to Malé when I have a stopover.
I prefer Hulhulmale to Malé when I have a stopover. It has a beach and isn't that busy and loud. The travelling time from the airport is only 15 minutes.
Hulhulmale offers everything I need for my short stays.

Probably the worst condition of a hotel I have ever seen at this expensive overprice. The staff was nice and helpful, but was glad it was just for One night. The whole hotel was in a miserable condition and completely No sense of internal decoration. No elevator. Unbelievable smell of urine. The beds were Soft and with a hole in the middel, moldy wet Walls, the White curtains too long and Brown. The airfreshner too strong and overwhelming.
The only consolation was a Great Bombay Indian Restaurant 5-7 mins walk away.
Always tale local taxi and not the taxi the hotel trys to make you take at 5 times the price

Would recommend this side over Male, what some locals said to us. Has a lot of small hotels and more beach area. Male is much more crowded and more concrete, less beaches. A few decent Indian restaurants. But other restaurants were hit or miss-lots of canned and dried foods. So definitely had a hard time with my stomach and some of the meals. But locals were all very nice. Stayed here 2 nights prior to going to a resort but 1 night would’ve been good enough.

Hulhumale is the face of the Maldives that you don't see in...
Hulhumale is the face of the Maldives that you don't see in the holiday brochures. It is very busy, especially the roads which buzz with motorcycles and scooters.
The physical 'state' of Hulhumale is unkempt and dirty.
Amber Beach hotel is in the city and very close to airport. And same time the beach is available when you open hotel front door. It is for people who like to see the city life and same time to have opportunity to enjoy the sea coast, water and sun. About the beach should keep in mind that it is public beach and you should obey the rules.
If visitors want, they can arrange one day tours or do some watersports next to hotel.
Relaxing walk and sitting and observing the ocean in the evening darkness were special moments.
Stayed here again, this time with a friend. She loved it just as much as I did the other times. The staff, from the housekeeping, restaurant, general staff and front desk people they were all polite and helpful and couldn't do enough for you. The cleaning was outstanding. It's a very welcoming hotel, and you can tell that service is key. Mohamed and Rajanesh were brilliant, thank you. Would always recommend this place to anyone who wants to come to Hulhumale or is passing through to the resorts.
The beach was not for the tourists for sure. If you want to enjoy the beach, it is not the right place. The whole place was very disappointing. We preordered the breakfast as well, but the whole hotel or rather a hostel had one person in charge , he was the cleaner, the cook and everything. We asked for salt and pepper , he was gone for a while. All the basic stuff you think are basic , seemed to be extraordinary for this place.
I stayed at this hotel for a longer time, which worked out great as male is easily reachable from here. The service was outstanding, got picked up from the airport, treated with a smile, staff was always attentive.
Besides that, the room was clean, large and comfortable. I had a water boiler, fridge, coffee machine and staff made sure I got plenty of drinking water every day. Wifi and TV were another big plus, working great.

Convenient location in Hulhumale, Maldives.
1. Location near to sea. All type of restaurants at walking distance, garden also near by, tree top hospital and hulhumale hospital also near by.
2. Play court - football, volley ball,skate court
3. Near to airport - can reach hotel by road within 10 mins from airport. Hotel provided pick and drop service to airport.
4. Language - Staff speak English and Hindi but, need improvement in communication.
Stayed here for 8 days comfortably. Fundamentally, the room was clean, the staff was professional, and they had a good selection of food. It's also close to the beach and you can easily catch the bus from the nearby stops to go anywhere. Oh and a bonus - THEY HAVE A LIFT. This last point is a bit one because there's a bunch in Hulhumale without it, which forces you to carry your luggage.
Staff were super friendly and the hotel has a quirky feel to it. I was at the top with an outside area, which was lovely. The location of Hulhumale is perfect with lots of cafes, restaurants and a park in the walking vicinity of the hotel - much better than Male itself. There is a beach but you need reef boots to go into the water.
Aman and his staff were very accommodating. They took care of us by organizing transportation, gave us some recommendations on places to visit, and made sure we were comfortable. This hotel is very clean and smells very fresh like lemon grass. Breakfast was all you can eat and very tasty. Thank you for everything.
The staff was very kind and the breakfast offered was surprisingly good. The hotel is literally in front of the public beach, even if it may result a little bit difficult taking a swim there (you need to walk at least 600m on a "rockish" seabed before you the water reaches at least your knees).
Room, breakfast, and the customer service was really the best part of the hotel. The staff did an excellent job with their service to us during our stay there. Anything we needed and wanted the staff was able to help us out in every way. Customer service was excellent.
Everything about the hotel was exceptional. It was clean. Stylish. Roomy with excellent service in where we had dinner. Food good and great value money and service was attentive and efficient. Room itself was well equipped and comfortable.
Thanks to ANSAR good job
Once we arrived the picked us up from the airport. The hotel is perfect for few nights before you head up to another island.
The room is clean and face hulhumale beach. The breakfast is very good.
Specially thanks to Livingston and Robin
A very good place for a night stay. The receptionist Indian is a very nice and customer service oriented person. Very professional and polite. He is really an asset to the hotel.
Loved this hotel, great location, super clean, big rooms and most importantly very comfortable huge bed! Highly suggested for your stay in Hulhumale. Defo coming back!
