Best stay in the Maldives !

We loved so much our stay. From the beginning until the end, the staff helped and assisted us. They came at the harbour to pick us up, they organised the excursions for us, they made breakfast, which was very good. The room is well equipped, clean and the bed is very comfortable. The beach is at 2 min. The terrace is very agreeable. It really felt like home, it was our best stay in the Maldives ! Thanks

A Wonderful Stay Near the Bikini Beach with Outstanding Hospitality 🌴

We had a wonderful stay at White Sands in the Maldives. The guest house is in a great location, just a short walk from the beautiful bikini beach, which made it perfect for relaxing days by the sea. The breakfast was excellent, with a good variety and fresh options every morning. We also really appreciated the transfer service to and from the harbor, which made our arrival and departure smooth and stress-free. The kindness and hospitality of the staff were truly outstanding — they were always helpful, attentive, and ready to assist us with a smile. The only small note concerns the safe in the room. It was actually a drawer with a key, and unfortunately it was not working during our stay. For this reason, it might be better not to list it among the room amenities. Overall, we highly recommend White Sands for a pleasant and relaxing stay in the Maldives.

Awesome staff, great place to stay

Amazing place to stay on Maamigili. Very close to the bikini beach/guest beach. Rooms are clean and bed is comfortable. The island is very calm and has a nice relaxing vibe. But the personal is of White Sand Inn is why you want to come here. Holy cow, they step it up when it comes to service. They really try to make your stay as comfortable as possible. First of all we got picked up from the ferry, nice! And from that point onwards they tried to facilitated in every manor possible. Amazing. Big shout out to Farid and the main man, Rakib. Thanks for making our stay a 5 star experience.

The accommodation was very clean and located just a few minutes from Bikini Beach. The surroundings were very calm. Rakib, the person who took care of us at the accommodation, and the owner were both very helpful and friendly. They helped arrange various interesting trips for us, as well as transfers to Maamigili and our next destination.

A peaceful and welcoming stay in a relaxing and quiet location

The guesthouse arranged our pick-up and drop-off to the transfer boat, which was very convenient. They can also assist with booking transfers to and from Malé, which is a helpful service. We especially enjoyed the outdoor terrace - it was a lovely space where we spent long evenings playing cards and peaceful mornings working. Having access to a water station and complimentary coffee throughout the day was a great touch. The staff were friendly and responsive throughout our stay. The guesthouse is located away from the main centre but right next to Bikini Beach, which was perfect for us as we preferred a quieter, more secluded setting. We also really appreciated the thoughtful touches and overall hospitality!

We stayed at White Sand Inn for 3 nights. And would stayed there again for sure. Great price performance, frendly and welcoming team. They arranged the transfer to and back, they arranged whale shark trip(found whale sharks in no time + Mantas), after whaleshark seeing went snorkling on different reefs(included in price). (Through out all the trip they arranged all the transitions to different exit points) They have option to get bikes (out prefered way of exploring thing(for free)). The owner arranged picnic island trip, again for free(maybe exlusive ocasion, but still, it happened:)) Great breakfast. Clean rooms. They offer to wash and dry your cloathing, again free, which shows the hospitality that we receved. The bikini beach is 2min away. Scuba center(Shamar guest house) is next door. Our dive guide also stayed at white sand. (Shamar and white sand are owned by two brothers). All in all great experience, I would recommened it to anyone who is planning to go to Maamigili. 10/10.

Amazing experience

Amazing personal experience with the sweet guys who work there. Also they are good entertainers. Never had a boring night. The owner is also a very helpful man and they all looked out for me and took good care of me, since I am a young solo female traveler. I felt very safe at White Sand Inn. I definitely recommend everyone to stay at this place when they visit Maldives.

I liked both the hotel itself and its location. There was a beautiful beach nearby where you could swim and watch the sunrise. I took a hotel with breakfast included. It was prepared every morning) The manager also arranged for a transfer by speedboat to the island itself. It was very convenient: 2 hours on the road and I ended up on the island at the hotel!)

Nice and comfy holiday in Maamingili

Very new guest house. If you like diving or snoerkling excursion the location is perfect beacuse you can reach the diving center by walk in 1 min! I had breckfast every day at White Sand Inn, it was continental. Close by there is Shamar Guest House & dive with local or international food for lunch or dinner! They pick you up at the ferry station and they do organize the transfer by speedboat from-to Male. I definitely recommend it!
