My experience started after I booked my trip to the Maldives, the hotel contact us directly offer help with transfer from the airport, this was greatly appreciated and accepted. The hotel is 3 minutes walk from the beach and jetty. The Staff are an asset, the Front of House Manager helped with booking tours and was professional, yet friendly and warm. Our cleaner (Shamim) made our stay special and appreciate the effort he made making our room every day. I would recommend this hotel, it is conveniently located to everything and the staff are the best.

Disappointing stay

The images from the hotel are missleading. They were taken maybe 10 years ago, before all the buildings was setup in front of the hotel. A lot of noice in the night because of the bars and resturants below. The reception was not used and we have to go to next door hotel for service and breakfast.

So I don’t normally do in-depth hotel reviews but this deserves it to help save someone. I booked at Kaani on Maafushi before going to the private island. First there are several hotels in this chain next to or close to each other. Note they are not all equal in price or quality. Read the reviews carefully. I booked Kaani Beach when I should have booked Kaani Palm Beach. Their hotel is nicer it seemed and amazing Saturday night beach party. There were only 2 floors in Kaani Beach so the sea view is through the trees and mostly of tin roofs and it’s an old building, no elevator which does not work well for my back. They gave me a triple room when I booked a double. The toilet was leaking and a rooster crowing out my room. The room and building was just horrible. I asked for a change in building and room. After back and forth, calling the manager etc the only room available was the king penthouse suite on the 7th floor in Kaani Grand which still had stairs because the elevator only went to the 6th floor and it would cost me extra $$$ to upgrade. It was nice and the view amazing and it was spacious. I went for my pedicure in their spa which is nice and it was ready when I came back. Note this is a chain with high guest’s occupancy so run like a machine. No extra niceness like the luxury brands in Maldives so lower your expectations. Free breakfast was ok. The worst part is after paying all that extra $$ there were roaches in my suite on both nights.

Half-hearted and not my hotel

We arrived on the island, and the hotel staff took us to Kaani Palm even though our reservation was at Kaani Beach. When I pointed this out, they said that Kaani Beach is closed at the moment (Yet they still sell rooms there). This annoyed me because I did not want to stay in Kaani Palm. I did not want to stay in a big concrete block with hundreds of other people, and that is why I chose Kaani Beach (which only has 16 rooms). When we got our room, the noise was unbearable. There was construction going on 5-10 metres away, and things in our room were shaking, and it was loud enough to drive you crazy. We asked for a new room and were told that it wouldn’t make a difference and that the daily construction noise finished at 7pm. So we were supposed to listen to the noise for 10-12 hours a day. We started looking for a new hotel but thankfully the manager came in the evening and found us a room further up without construction chaos. THE FOOD was a big disappointment. Every night that the buffet was outside, the food was cold - Even though we came down as soon as the buffet opened. We really regretted paying for dinner because it was cold, bland and like something you would perhaps serve kids in a school cafeteria. It should be easy to make a few simple salads that people like, but there would be strange soggy things or unidentified meats in

Não achei seguro

O hotel era razoável, porém nessa época de pandemia NÃO exigia que os hóspedes utilizassem máscaras nas áreas comuns do hotel. Além disso tinha serviço de buffet no café da manhã e almoço, sem sequer disponibilizar luvas e álcool para as pessoas se servirem. Muitos funcionários também não utilizavam máscara, o que é um absurdo! Haviam avisos nas áreas comuns para as pessoas usarem máscaras, porém NINGUÉM usava e o hotel não cobrava. Ficamos muito assustados e não recomendaríamos o hotel nessa época de pandemia. Se não fosse por isso, a experiência poderia ter sido ótima.

Immaculate service, but somewhat worn out hotel

We stayed in Kaani Beach in December 2019. We had a deluxe room with a sea view. We were supposed to have double room, but ended up with similar family room. The service attitude of the staff was throughout our stay immaculate: truly helpful and welcoming. Not matter what we asked, they went above and beyond excellent. The hotel itself is somewhat worn out, which one cannot see from the presentation pictures (see images in review). Also important note: the view from the rooms to the beach and sea is no longer pristine, as a variety of garden shacks have been built in front of the hotel, between the rooms and the sea. All kinds of junk were stored in the shacks, visible also to the hotel balconies (see picture attached, although the photo is almost forgiving to the junk stored). Maafushi itself is a nice island, in the midst of a rapid tourism growth phase. I believe some local said there is almost 3000 bed places in the island now. All tours, boats and services ran smooth in Maafushi, and one can expect almost every situation to be sorted out fast and smooth. I would recommend Maafushi & Kaani beach as a place to start or end your trip, but do try other islands as well in your trip.

The hotel is clean, spacious and ideally located nearby to the bikini beach, shops and restaurants on Maafushi. The rooms are great, very well air-conditioned and the cleaning service is brilliant. All in this place was valuable for us. We stayed for a few days and the staff was very helpful and polite with everything we needed. They helped with explanations about the trips and it was really important for us rookie out decisions about what to do in 4 days. Thanks to all staff for everything. We would recommend this hotel to other families and will definitely stay again when we return to Maafushi.

We had a wonderful day at the kaani beach hotel. The hospitality of the staffs are impeccable and we really appreciate their service throughout the 8 days 7 nights when we are there. Micheal is such an incredible host and he made sure we are comfortable during our stay. We brought our parents along and they enjoyed it as much too. The facility is near to the port, beach and the most of the activities. The counter made sure that we had umbrellas when it was pouring and Micheal sat us down to plan the whole itinerary for us. Despite 1 full day of rain, we still got to do everything that we wanted. The activities that kaani tours (affiliated) that they had to offer are affordable and great. We formed a bond with all the boatman and they were just amazing. Thank you for making our trip such an incredible stay. Definitely made the whole trip memorable.
