    Wonderful, authentic, Maldives

    The hotel is just in front of the ocean, you can have your meal with your feet on the sand under the palmtrees, while gazing at the wonderful landscape. The staff is attentive and helpful. Special mention to Shanto, the waiter, who really went to great lengths to ensure we were satisfied throughout our stay!

    Nice hotel and great location.

    - Breakfast is very limited, on the contrary of what other reviews say - Nothing was exceptional really, just a decent bed & breakfast for the price of more than $100/night

    + Great cleanliness + Comfortable bed + Good air conditioning + Practical and well equipped rooms

    My room was clean and spacious with a sea view. I recommend going for a massage at the hotel spa. They also help organize great trips. Staff at the hotel was amazing always ready to help and positive. Breakfast very good and varied. Restaurant on the beach with a great view and delicious food. The wonderful atmosphere in the hotels made me definitely come back🙂

    Dont take ful board, because the food is cheap and you pay much less if you pay for each meal. That is the only thing I didnt like.

    The waiting time for dinner food (grilled) is 3h but I noticed it’s like that everywhere on the island

    The hotel is located next to a beach and diving center. The rooms are very comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was a bit different every day so that’s a plus. Staff is very friendly and to your service every moment. Portia organizes boat transfer to the airport so you don’t have to worry about it. Overall, I recommend!

    My reservation was too short. A few extra days would be nice

    Breakfast and dinner right by the water, perfect service, possibility of ordering special dishes, bikini beach right next to it, peace and quiet, what more could you want. Additional trips - no problem. Octopus for dinner - you're welcome. Different breakfasts every day for 5 days, the local cuisine is really tasty and, compared to other places on the island, really not expensive. The island itself is beautiful, peaceful, and the people are incredibly friendly.

    Very helpful staff. Good contact. Tasty food. Free drinking water. Perfect view. Free snorkeling equipment. Please be aware that to the price on booking you should add taxes and if you paying by card in the hotel the 3.5% commission will be added. If possible take cash with you. All in all I totally recommend this accomodation.

    Good location within walking distance to the jetty, restaurants and other attractions on the island. A beautiful beach and a water activities center are just in front. Very friendly and helpful staff. Menu à la carte is wide at affordable prices.

    Beach is 100 meters which is okay. Some of the fixtures were wobbly. But nothing too bad, all that could be worked around

    Simple, small and clean, you get what you pay for. You could use it for a longer stay and won't need deep pockets.

    Me and my wife stayed at Portia hotel for six nights. I could say it is a great value for the money place. From the beginning till the end we received great attention from the host and the staff. Nothing was left behind. They assisted us with arrival and departure transfers and even arranged some turtle snorkeling which was a great experience for inlanders like us. Our booking included breakfast and dinner. The food was always enough and delicious. For the dinners we had a shortlisted menu but all the options were great, especially the grilled fish. For our last dinner the host arranged for us a romantic rinner with nice lighting and set up without even requesting it. It was a lovely surprise. Very handy for us was that the bikini beach is just a minute away from the hotel and our host arranged umbrella and sunbeds for us. The sun protection here is crucial and keep it in mind! Once again hotel Portia was a great place for us to spend a week at the Maldives!

    The rooms facing the back look a bit like cellars, the ventilation is very poor. And unfortunately there is no entertainment on the island. You have no choice but to eat and sit down in the evening.

    The hotel's location, seaside garden and especially the staff were excellent. royal, adnan, muhammed and all the other staff were great.

    I would love to recommend the stay at the Portia hotel. Having spent there 6 days, I faced tasty food and really nice service. The location on the island has it’s benefits as it has a lovely dining area as well as it’s close to one of the local bikini beaches.
