We were super good!, the best value for money! The manager, Yaissir, is very attentive and answers very quickly to any questions or problems you may have, not only in the hotel, anything on the island: he helps you. We were in low season, alone in the hotel, and yet they were all very attentive. The man who was in charge of the rooms and the dining room, was a bit shy, but super nice person... They are all very good people and attentive, and transmit a lot of confidence and tranquility. The room, always clean, is not small, is very comfortable, and the bathroom is very large and comfortable. Highly recommended. Many thanks to Yaisiir and all the hotel staff for those wonderful days we spent…

Getting there
Detour Beach View lies about 74 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport, the country's main gateway near Malé. The nearest domestic airport is Maamigili, roughly 44 km away, which matters if your transfer combines a domestic flight with a boat ride.
Local islands this far from Malé are usually reached by a domestic flight and a speedboat, or by a scheduled ferry or shared speedboat from Malé; the guesthouse can confirm current options and timings.
The nearest other stays in this guide are Coral Beach Maldives (on the same island), Kalaafaanu Retreat (on the same island) and Island Grand Maldives (on the same island). 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.

Dream holiday. Guest house is really beautiful, staff is extremely helpful and kind. All speak good English and basic Italian. We had an all inclusive package, food was always really good and various, fresh fish, veggies and fruit every day. Breakfast also had all you might want. Location is great, a few meters from the public beach and about 5 min walk to tue bikini beach. Beautiful reef, lots of dolphins, tortoise, sharks and incredible corals and fish. Excursions were simply amazing and lunch of desert islands is really recommended. Thanks to the manager Mohammed, the excursion leader Hussain, The capitan and all tue staff for making our holiday so incredible! !
Definitely a Lovely place to stay. Wonderful staff!!!
