I had a 3 night stay to enjoy the local life of Thinadhoo, and I was very satisfied with every aspect of the hotel. The staff are very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable regarding places to visit. The hotel is very clean throughout, and my room was spacious with everything that I needed. Breakfast was substantial, and suited all tastes. The hotel is quiet, and is situated near to numerous restaurants, and a main supermarket, and within easy walking distance to the beach. I would highly recommend a stay at this hotel.

Getting there
Umet Stay lies about 411 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport, the country's main gateway near Malé. The nearest domestic airport is Kaadedhdhoo, roughly 4.9 km away, which matters if your transfer combines a domestic flight with a boat ride.
Huvadhu Atoll (Gaafu) is far enough from Malé that the usual route is a domestic flight followed by a boat or road transfer; confirm the connection with the property before booking international flights.
The nearest other stays in this guide are Sunset Stay Maldives (250 m), Amethyst Hoandedhdhoo (9.7 km) and Raabade Maldives (9.9 km). On a local island or in the city, stays this close share the same streets, beaches and ferry stops, which makes them easy to compare.

Umet Stay averages 4.6 out of 5 across 24 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
Beautiful guest house with lots of facilities. The restaurant, diving, sandbank trips and fishing 🎣 trips are the reasons to stay in this guest house. The friendly staff and quality services are remarkable. Grocery shops, medical facilities, beaches and swimming areas are just 3 min 🚶♂️ 🚶♀️. The roof top coffe shop is my favourite.
Stayed here twice and both stay are comfortable with big bed and clean room. The location is not bad as its next to the good restaurant. The issue is the internet!! Its super slow, basically cant really load anything.
