I was given a free upgrade from a city view to an ocean view room...first thank you! They even packed a breakfast take-away for me since I needed to leave for the hotel before the breakfast service started...second thank you! Shuttle transfer arrived on time and got me to the terminal in minutes....third thank you! The air conditioning worked well to keep the room comfortable...fourth thank you!

Amber Beach averages 4.5 out of 5 across 194 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
We stayed at Amber Beach Hotel for one night, and it was truly a pleasant experience. The room was impressively clean and well-maintained, though it felt slightly smaller than expected based on the booking description. The food was delicious, and the staff were friendly and attentive, enhancing our stay. The hotel’s location is ideal, offering a beautiful view from the room that we thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would happily recommend Amber Beach Hotel to others looking for a comfortable and enjoyable getaway.
Stayed at Amber Beach hotel for one night before our flight. The hotel is very well located, close to the airport, and the included shuttle service is a great bonus! The shuttle was on time and professional, both when we arrived and when we departed for the airport. Since our flight was early, they packed us a breakfast, which is a nice gesture. The hotel also has a rooftop with a beautiful view. Everything was perfect — I highly recommend this hotel in Hulhumale!
