Beachfront setting on Fulidhoo
The guest house sits directly on the beach, next to the speedboat jetty. Sunbeds and umbrellas are set out on the private beach area, and the sea view from the rooms is a consistent draw for guests who have stayed here.
Sea-view rooms and a balcony option
Three room types face the water. The Deluxe Double or Twin Room adds a private balcony to the sea view. The Family Room at 26 m² is the largest, sleeping three across a double and a single bed.
Restaurant and coffee shop on site
Breakfast runs to continental, American, and Asian options. Beyond breakfast, the on-site restaurant and a separate coffee shop cover meals and drinks without leaving the property.
A short walk from the village
Fulidhoo village is about five minutes on foot. The island is small enough that the local community, the beach, and the jetty are all within easy reach of the guest house.
