Point Inn

A descent stay, nothing more. The good thing is the location at the beach, but the area is very trashy. Nice dinner sitting at the beach restaurant. Room is ok for one night. Helpful staff but poor breakfast. Be aware of, u can not be at this beach wearing bikini. U have to use the tourist beach 1 km down the road. That beach is really dirty with garbage thrown everywhere. Too bad, the area could be very nice if they only would clean up. Really good with free transport from and to the airport. WiFi worked very good.

Very nice room facing the waterfront and near many restaurants to enjoy the area. The ferry terminal to Male is only about a 15-minute walk away while the airport is less than 10-minute drive away. We picked this hotel since it offers complimentary airport shuttle service. We requested for it when we made our reservation on hotels.com website, but fortunately we called that same day before we boarded our flight since the woman who amswered the call didn't seem to know that we needed airport pickup. She told us that the driver would have a sign with our name, but we couldn't find him at all and had to go to the Information Desk at the airport to use their phone to call the hotel. The same woman answered and said the driver is already there. We walked around again and finally spotted a guy with the Point Inn sign but without our name on it. We shared the ride with another couple who probably arrived at the same time. Breakfast was toast, butter, jam, fried egg, 1 sausage, and a glass of probably packaged juice every morning for all 3 nights we were there. The staff were friendly but other than the woman who works the afternoon to evening shift the men who worked there spoke and understood little English. There is no elevator so you need to be able to walk upstairs for your room. The room is basic and they don't provide housekeeping service during your stay but you can request for fresh towels etc. The safe and the TV didn't work, but overall it was a very good stay.
