“Very friendly and kind staff. ”

Beautiful Reception area, however, not really usable to hang out in the afternoon due to the heat, could have more fans in the garden area and next to the pool. Friendly staff they work very hard.

“Relaxing, rustic and friendly”

Court yard was lovely with lots of space to sit and relax. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Thai restaurant on sight was lovely. Our room was huge with a great patio area.

“It was wonderful, especially the excursions”

We stayed at Palms Retreat for our honeymoon in November–December 2025, and this place absolutely stole our hearts! We were pleasantly surprised by the warm welcome upon arrival — they greeted us with lemon tea, a refreshing wet towel, and delicious snacks to enjoy with the tea. The hotel is beautiful, incredibly cozy, and designed with such love and attention to detail that you feel at home from the very first moment. The grounds are always spotless, the rooms are cleaned daily, and the inner courtyard is simply magical — stylish, atmospheric, and full of comfortable corners where you can relax anytime. The location is another big advantage. There are shops and a café nearby, and the bikini beach is just a 10-minute walk through a stunning palm grove. And the sandy spit there is a dream — one of the most beautiful we’ve ever seen 😍 Our room was excellent: spacious, bright, with a huge terrace and a sea view. Every day we received two large bottles of water (1.5 L), and the room had everything we needed — shower caps, toothbrushes with toothpaste, towels, a beach bag, a razor, and all the toiletries. It was so nice that they thought of every little detail. The staff is incredibly friendly. Everyone is always smiling, ready to help, and they create such a warm atmosphere that you want to come back again and again. But the most special person is Aiman, the owner of the hotel. He has such a big heart! He is always around, checking on the guests, helping with anything you need. And the excursions he organizes are beyond words! He provides everything — life jackets, fins, masks — and together with the captain takes you to the most beautiful and lively spots in the ocean. We went on excursions to see manta rays, turtles, fish, and the coral garden — these were some of the most unforgettable moments of our lives. Aiman records everything with a GoPro and a drone and then sends you the videos — memories you’ll treasure forever.

“Nice place with great staff and lobby area. Relatively expensive and extra cost to use credit card. Strange food for us”

The lobby area, the staff.

All the interior design and details are perfect.

The hotel is located in a great location, with great views outside the rooms and delicious restaurant food. The atmosphere inside the building is relaxed, and the landlord and staff are friendly and welcoming. On this island, we saw beautiful scenery and had a great travel experience.

“Highly recommend staying on this island and in that hotel.”

I highly recommend staying at Palm Retreats! Clean rooms, delicious breakfasts and really good Thai cuisine. The whole team was very helpful and we felt very well looked after.

“Lovely guest house.”

Clean and luxurious with very good food!

“Very chilled relaxed environment. Really friendly pleasant staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Staff very attentive.”

Staff went above and beyond . Resort was very clean. Cosy feel to place.

“Very good”

We really liked the Thai food at the hotel restaurant although the breakfast was just average. The staff was very kind and the hotel is apparently the best on the island

“It was amazing, the best experience in the Maldives.”

The property is very clean, aesthetic and comfortable. A big plus for me was also an amazing food. The host (Aiman) is the kindest and makes the whole experience even more memorable. They also offer the best excursions (my favourite one was snorkeling with mantas-everyone should try it).

“Newly built stylish hotel with exceptional service and Thai cuisine on paradise island.”

We stayed at Palms retreat for 4 nights mid January. It was an absolute pleasure to discover this place. We chose the retreat on the basis that there was Thai cuisine offered. Not only the cuisine was excellent but the whole spirit of this stylish retreat was above expectations. The owners, Amy & Aiman, and every single staff member were genuinely attentive, kind and welcoming. The comfort of each quest is of utmost priority to them. Fulhadhoo island is an exceptional experience with balance of stunning, long sandbanks, clean beaches, coral reef for snorkelling and palm forest for calming walks. The village is picturesque, well maintained with friendly local people. Would definitely recommend this retreat and would love to return. Thank you.

We recently stayed at the hotel managed by Amy and Aiman and were thoroughly impressed by our experience. From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcomed, a feeling that was further enhanced by the friendly and helpful staff. Each member of the team went out of their way to ensure our comfort and satisfaction.The food offered at the hotel was exceptional, with a delightful variety of delicious and well-presented dishes. The hotel itself was a cozy haven, with its inviting and stylish decor creating a warm and home-like atmosphere.Amy, Aiman, and their team have truly created a wonderful retreat, blending great service with a comfortable setting. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a memorable and enjoyable stay.

“The best hotel+restaurant choice in the island although there is room for improvement”

Nice, polite and helpful hosts and staff. Also there is an excellent Thai restaurant on the ground floor with a variety of delicious dishes to choose from. A lot of activities /excursions offered at an extra cost, great location.

Location, people, room, island (it is a paradise!!!)

This is amazing and most beautiful place on nearest islands, and really really best on Fulhadhu. Amy, Aiman thanks for all, you made our honeymoon, we are happy. Restaurant was amazing Thai food real. Wish you luck and many visitors. Aseel good luck. Thank for Go Pro shooting

Well managed, excellent accommodation with great staff! 🥰

“5 star, high Quality service, amazing food and wonderful staff! A very memorable stay!”

Where do we start...this place is amazing and on one very special island, Fulhadhoo! We have been Lucky to spend time is some very expensive hotels in Europe and the USA and the service, quality of food and attention to detail here is on par, if not better! Your hotel decor is relaxing and a joy to be in. The food is well thought out and you were so accommodating of my fiancé being a vegan, which was something we were nervous about when coming to the Maldives originally. The offering of quality excursions is excellent and we were so thrilled to see pilot whales and spinner dolphins on our excursion, a true once in a lifetime Experience! And it was great to go out with owner Aiman on this, as he is so knowledgeable about this atoll and island! The excursion felt very relaxed and with a small Boat and local captain, we felt safe and amazed by the experience. We even got videos of us we didn't expect l, and that was a lovely surprise! The skin care products in the public bathroom were also a very nice touch as was the amazing infusers around the property! A special shout out goes to Tinu, who had amazing attention to detail and went that extra mile to make us have the best time. He knew exactly how we liked our ice coffee! We have loved our stay so much and would love to return for our honeymoon in a few years! Thank you all at palms retreat! Keep doing what you are doing and we wish you all the best for the future! Isabel and Joshua

“Modern, well-equipped, relaxing accommodation for real relaxation”

Fulhadhoo is the most beautiful Maldive island where we have ever been to. The bikini beach is amazing: crystal clear water, white sand, view of the endless ocean…and those incredible colours! The breakfast was delicious, everyday different with many courses. The owners, the staff did everything to make us feel like we were in Paradise. The daily gift of food/drink was very attentive. Many leisure activities in the hotel, with special thanks to see the luminated planktons.
