Hotel berhampiran Children＇s Park, Hithadhoo

I’m not normally the kind to leave reviews but this had to be done.. Me and my husband are frequent travelers, this was our 3rd trip to the Maldives.. what a let down.. We paid over 8k for 14nights AI in an over water bungalow.. Bluebay had sold this to as a 5 star hotel but actually it’s only a 4star, it should only be 3.5 at best.. AI Package Breakfast lunch and dinner no snacks available. Food was okay, if you enjoy local cuisine you will enjoy. I’m a fussy eater so did struggle and I also don’t enjoy spicy food. no food was allowed to leave restaurant if you did, you would be charged for it. I did sneak muffins out of breakfast for a snack later in the day. Drinks Drinks are very restrictive. They were only four cocktails for mock tails for spirits four beers I’m not sure and I’m not sure on the Wines available to drink as part of the all inclusive package if you want to do to deviate from the drinks menu, would cost you a minimum of US$12 per drink. Fizzy drinks had been either water down or left to go flat.. I enjoy a Jack Daniel and Coke, but the Coke was always flat in the end. I just stuck to sparkling water as this came out of a can. You can’t take drinks back to your room or out of the restaurant or bar if you do say you will be charged. There is another bar located near the water bungalows, but if you want to use it, you have to pay for your drinks, as you can imagine, it was empty all day every day.. There was an in dining menu/ room service which was also extremely expensive. We had looked at the menu and $38 just for a burger is a little bit much in my opinion I’m not sure if many people ever used it. This was the same for the minibar a can of Coke was $10. There was no sun-beds or umbrellas on the beach at all. Only sun-beds that were on the beach belonged to the beach bungalows but there was no possibility of shade, if you like to sunbath on the beach you will need to use your towel. The pool had a roundabout 30 sun-beds of which they had been screwed together in groups of two so that they couldn’t be moved. Two of these broke on my husband when he was laying on them. When you looked underneath, they were held together in some parts with string I’ve never seen such a mess. Most of the pool hasn’t even been grouted, you can see lots of tiles that have started to come away or come loose and bodged back together. You can’t have tea or coffee around the pool because the pool guy thinks that the milk will attract flies.. not sure what happens if you like yours black, you can have fizzy pop or juice in glass cups around the pool.. Our overwater bungalow was beautiful, very well kept and the cleaner was absolutely lovely, there had been some damage to our room in the past there were tiles that had cracked above the shower and again badly repaired. The lights on our deck didn’t work, particularly well compared to others ours were very dull.. From the UK is an extensive travel, three flights Heathrow to Dubai, Dub
