Excellent place to stay.

The view was amazing from this room. The room was really clean and the staff were really supportive. Shout out to Mohammed also helped us book our excursions with ease - if you see him make sure you book your excursions through him (photo attached). If I revisit Maafushi, I will be staying here again.

Great introduction to a local island!

The hotel is very well organised and super prepared for all types of travellers. The staff were incredibly friendly and mostly helpful. The briefing was very informative and spelt out in as many languages possible. Rooms were small but beautiful with a great outlook. Special mention to Aaiz & Adriano who made our stay that little bit more enjoyable. The boats were in fantastic conduction not only for the transfer but for both the day tours.

Nice stay but may not return as there are other competitors hotels nearby which is available

The hotel benefits from a very good location just steps from the beach, which makes it attractive for travelers who want easy sea access. The sea-facing rooms with balcony are worth considering, and the room size is comfortable for a short stay. The breakfast and dinner spread are adequate, offering a decent selection.

A huge thank you to the Arena Hotel staff for the room upgrade—the 360-degree ocean views were stunning!

Our stay at Arena Hotel was wonderful. The highlight was the staff upgrading us to a premium ocean view room at the very top of the hotel—the views were breathtaking! The room was clean and comfortable, the food was great, and the location is unbeatable. A big thank you to the friendly team for making our stay so memorable.

Probably the best hotel on the island. The location is perfect, right in front of the bikini beach, and the views from the rooms and the rooftop are fantastic. The hotel is modern, clean and well organized. The staff were very helpful with excursions and activities. It may be a bit more expensive than other options on the island, but it is definitely worth it for the comfort and location

Hotel Arena exceeded all our expectations. We had a beautiful room with an ocean view, and it was cleaned several times a day – which honestly surprised us in the best way! When there was an issue with the photos from one of the excursions, our friend was offered the trip again free of charge. That’s truly amazing hotel policy and exactly why we’ll definitely be coming back. Big applause to you! The food was delicious – absolutely nothing to complain about. We also have to mention an exceptional waiter, Hashim. We wish every hotel had someone like him! Not only was the service fantastic, but he’s also an incredibly kind, helpful and genuinely wonderful person. Thank you for the great, relaxed conversations about the Maldives and Bangladesh. We travel a lot, but we’ve honestly never met anyone like him – so passionate and dedicated to his job. We need more people like this in the world! People like him should be hotel managers! Thanks for everything!
