They arranged a text driver to pick us up at Gan airport. Clean hotel with a hot shower, and strong AC. Walking distance to a few restaurant and convenience store. The owner gave us a ride to the harbor where our Liveaboard was supposed to pick us up, but the plan has changed without them notifying us - he was kind to call for us and brought us to the airport instead. Their hospitality is amazing. The only down side was that WiFi wasn’t working. But I bought an eSIM at Male airport so it was not a problem for me. I recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a convenient location to connect to Liveaboard starting from Gan.

The nice and helpful host made my stay in the Maldives great and unique. He picked me up and dropped me at the airport and helped me to organize all kind of tours, such as snorkeling, motor biking and he shared recommendations for local restaurants with me. The room is great and really clean and the free use of bicycles and a brilliant breakfast in a restaurant with see view are included. All in all a really peaceful und local place for an incredible good price. Thanks for the nice stay!
