Staying in this hotel was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made!! Here we had everything that we were dreaming about coming to Maldives - beautiful beach with white sand and clear water, a lot of picturesque places where you can take photos, stylish interior of hotel, wonderful views from balcony and rooftop, amazing friendly staff, who always meet you with sincere smile and readiness to help, delicious food, the best massage and many many other. Special thanks to manager Sanjay who made our staying here so comfortable, he managed all the questions we came with, was very caring and did all his best to make our vacation memorable.

This Guest House is one of the most beautiful places where I have ever spent my vacation. The room is extremely clean and spacious, with simple furniture but very pleasant design, everything is new and well maintained. The stuff is amazing, the manager of the location took care to respond to any need, while the restaurant team was always kind and with a smile on their face. The cherry on the cake is the bikini beach in front of the location, which is very beautifully designed and not crowded (on the beach there is fine sand but for entering the water I recommend some water shoes because there are stones). Just 30 minutes by speed boat from Male is a corner of heaven.

Only thing worth mentioning is the coffee. Would be nice to have real coffee instead of instant coffee.

The best location on Thulusdhoo island. Breakfast was really nice with the best view you can get on the island. Special thanks to Sanjay who took really good care of us and made us feel welcomed.

The hotel is perfect! The decoration is really nice, the rooms are spacious and comfortable. The location could not be better. Sanjay is the nicest hotel owner I have ever met. I hope to come back in the future. Don't hesitate to book here, it is the best hotel of Thulusdoo island!

The other guests smoking in the non smoking area - Those guests choose to ignore the hotels non smoking signs.

The manager Sanjay is fantastic! So helpful !! he makes travelling to the island so easy with his communication on Whats App with easy directions - even photos so you know exactly where to go for 30 min speedboat ride - straight from airport. ( 25USD pp each way)Sanjay makes you feel welcome on arrival & offers to help with any thing you need - he makes your stay easy & relaxing with all the necessary information. A/C was on in room on arrival which we really appreciated because it was very hot. Good Wifi downstairs. All his staff are extremely friendly & the hotel has a great beach vibe with a sand floor & lovely decor in the restaurant along with dining inside & out by the water. Breakfast was great. We also booked a massage which was fabulous! !!! Its located on hotel roof with a nice cool breeze - highly recommend. Plus bonus free pizza at 5pm was unreal!!!! Thank you! Its right on the bikini beach which I thought was best place on the island. Easy walk to plenty of local run island restaurants but we ate in the hotel because so easy & nice atmosphere.

The beach is amazing and the overall feel of the hotel is very boho and relaxed. Sanjay in particular went above and beyond to insurance I had the best day.

You have to keep in mind, that water transport operates from ~9am, so if you have to catch early flight, be prepared to pay 4 times more for water transfer. Also, bathroom was a bit small and there was only 1 towel per person (no towels for face/hands) and personel except for the administrator does not speak English well. Also, on Fridays, local club is playing music out loud, so be prepared to listen for that music from your room till midnight.

Guesthouse is located in extremely good place - beach is 15 seconds walk, water fun huts, cafes are close. Room was equipped with all needed stuff (hairdryer, shampoo, etc.). Food in local cafe was nice. Administrator Sanjay was also very welcoming and supported during the whole stay.

Sanjay and his staff are the consummate hosts. I loved the aesthetic, the room, the complimentary pizza and coffee/tea. It was just a wonderful stay that I wish could continue indefinitely ♥️

The rooms were comfortable, the staff were friendly and the beach is right in front of you. A great spot for a relaxing vacation at an affordable price.

the guests are loud at night in front of the hotel. but the property close / reduce lights at 11 to encourage them to go to their rooms :D

the location is perfect, right in front of the ocean, Manager is very gentle and respectful. Food is good. Couldn't ask for more

Although good, the breakfast should be improved as there are not too many options

We enjoyed our stay at Samura. The staff is amazing and they do a great job, going the extra mile. The manager helped us with the transport to and from the hotel, he was there everyday ready to help us with any request starting with beach towels and free transport to the other beach. The room was big and cleaned everyday, and it has a nice view. They also had a barbeque and we could enjoy your dinner outside, next to the ocean

Would have loved to see some Curry items on the menu. And definitely, some spices added to the dishes. Everything else was amazing. Great breakfast w/oceanfront dining.

This was our first time in Maldives. We took a chance on Samura Panorama based on the reviews. This place is truly a gem. Sanjay is just amazing! Excellent hospitality and a 7-star service from the entire staff of this guesthouse. Best location. Pristine Clean and truly a welcoming place. Don't forget to have a lunch or dinner at the Indulge, an Italian Jaunt. Great food. We will be back.

The welcome, help, and support of Sanjay made it all!! Such a memorable stay in a pretty wild island. Thank you

Stayed in January 2024

Sanjay welcomed us with a great smile and was extremely available to answer any questions during our whole stay. We booked a room with sea view and it was great, although quite simple. When compared the other hotels in the island, Samura seems to be a lot more expensive, which I was ok with until I got there and realised we could have stayed in similar places paying a lot less. In any case, we had a really great stay and I can't thank enough Sanjay for this extreme sympathy!! I definitely recommend staying here.

There is nothing to dislike, but there can be improvement on coffee mashine instead of powder coffee in the lobby. Staff over there is really kind and generous but sometimes they enter the room without your approval.

I loved everything about the Samura Panorama. From the hall to the room, everything was really clean and tidy. Interior is even better in real then on the pictures, its designed with a taste.

The cleanliness was outstanding, with bed sheets changed daily. The staff, especially Sanjay, were friendly and went above and beyond to organize a memorable day trip to a resort. Breakfast was satisfying, and the Secret Beach sunset, just a 15-minute walk away, was outstanding. Keep in mind that family rooms on the 3rd floor do not have a lift. Overall, an enjoyable experience. :)

Exceptional attention to detail - design and execution. Namely, a "wet zone" downstairs with a surfboard rack, impeccable safety and cleanness, comfortable room with a modern bathroom. We very much appreciated the attention of the staff, especially, the manager Sanjay. Thanks a lot! We highly recommend the hotel and will be back!

Samura Panoram is a very chill location: the bohemian style is not only in the decoration, but also in the guests, staff and overall atmosphere. Rooms are well furnished and clean (bedsheets were incredibly soft). Food is very decent, and you have options to dine around the corner if you’re longing for a bit of change. Above all, the staff is very hospitable, especially Sanjay who answers all questions and wishes before arrival, and during the stay - thank you Sanjay for your recommendations, and for the chocolate cake!
