“The best vibe in Thulusdhoo !”
Staying at the Zen Den was an absolute dream ! The team is amazing, so kind, welcoming, and always making sure you have the best experience. They truly make you feel at home ☺️ The location is perfect, just a few steps from the beach 🏝️ The rooms are absolutely perfect and super comfortable ! And the food… wow ! Their pancakes and the maldivian breakfast are next-level, and I’m already missing them aha 🥹 Every meal, from breakfast to dinner, was simply incredible, fresh, tasty, and made with so much love 😋 A special thank you to the two incredible servers who took such great care of us, you made our experience even more special 🫶🏼 Can’t wait to come back !!

“A beautiful little hotel with exceptional hosts.”
This is a terrific new little hotel in Thulusdhoo. Donna and her husband were fantastic and went out of their way to facilitate me and my requests - even though I booked at the last minute. It has a lovely little courtyard for breakfast and nice simple styling on my room which had its own little verandah facing out to the street. Rooms were very soundproofed and super cool in the hot climate. Note the hotel is changing its name soon to Akira I think. Thulusdhoo is a magic little island - not overdeveloped and very chill. Staying a bit back from the beach was nice for me. I stayed at another hotel on the island and this one was hands down the best.

“Great Place and service”
Brand new place, close to the beach. The rooms were clean and the bed was very comfortable. The Maldivian breakfast they gave us was delicious. Thank you zinan and donna for everything, we will definitely stay here again.☺️
