Reviews of Samura Maldives Guest House Thulusdhoo

Best place on the island. Very Nice and clean rooms with stunning view Great breakfast on the Beach Nur arranged everything from the start of our trip

Nothing

Nur and the entire staff were so wonderful and helpful. We were almost stranded at the airport due to our transfer mixup and Nur made sure to get us last minute bookings. The facility is right on the beach very stunning and resort-like. Would highly recommend 🩷

Absolutely nothing.

The staff was so friendly!!! They did everything to help us.

Nothing Everything was perfect.

Lovely staff and fantastic service

Perfect

Location, facilities and staff all amazing. A very special place

I loved how the staff was always ready to help you. Let them book the stuff for you, it’s better than arranging it yourself, also very stress free. The accommodation is very romantic and breakfast is served on the beach. I want to thank Bilal and Nur for everything, making sure we have all we need and even making breakfast to go early in the morning. The snorkeling tour to turtle reef is so amazing. You can check the waves out of your room! Internet very fast too!

Staff were amazing - Belal was always around to assist

Amazing location, designed with taste, chilled and relaxed, the best beach on the island, kind of boutique, great friendly staff, all clean, free water, coca cola, coffee, tea all day. I would come again!

Salty water in the shower, but I guess it’s the island thing, not the hotel. Besides they provide you with bottled water throughout the stay.

"I had an amazing stay at Samura Guest House in the Maldives! The location is perfect, right on a stunning beach with crystal clear waters. The guest house has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Special thanks to Nur, Bilal, and Hassan for making my experience unforgettable with their kindness and hospitality. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and offered breathtaking views of the ocean. I also loved the delicious local meals served at the on-site restaurant. It was the perfect place to relax, enjoy water activities, and experience the true beauty of the Maldives. Highly recommend this gem for anyone looking for a peaceful and authentic island getaway!"

great Location, great food, friendly and very helpful people working there

My vacation was great from start to finish! Nur was great with helping me with excursions, boats and ferry. The staff was so kind and the room was on the beach. I look forward to booking with Nur and Samura Maldives Guest House again. I highly recommend this guest house to anyone!

The rooms are literally on the beach and well appointed for the location. Nur and the team were always very helpful and communications were great. We had flight delays and Nur helped us with all details, including speedboat transfer. Nur also helped on short notice organise us a shark tour - well worth the experience! It was great to be on a non-resort island and just wander about trying out the other eateries and watching life go by. Sumura has the best location on the island, absolute prime! Wish we had enough time to stay there for 2 more weeks!

Nothing really at all! If are looking for a resort experience this is not this, it is far more the 'authentic experience'.

I had a perfect holiday at Samura. I am reluctant to leave. I will come again next time. Thanks to the enthusiastic service of the hotel staff. I am particularly touched by the hotel's humanization. My booked room allowed me to check out late when no one else booked it, shortening my trouble of waiting for a long time for the flight. I am very grateful. I will remember the people and things here. Thanks for the encounter.

The breakfast is rich. If it's not enough, you can ask for more. Coffee is free all day. From five o'clock in the afternoon, there are free toasted bread and drinks. In my opinion, the geographical location here is the best on the whole island. I really enjoy every day here.

The staff was always nice and provided us everything we needed. The room was cleaned every day properly.

The Beach towels looked used sometimes. The fruits at breakfast tasted old sometimes.

The staff is very friendly and attentive. It is located in a beautiful place with direct access to the beach and everything is nicely decorated, ideal for relaxing. It is close to some restaurants and places to do activities. The suite has amazing views and is very spacious.

Considering the price of the room, there were details a bit neglected: the shower had lime scale embedded in it and the faucet was very small, the toilet is totally open with no insulation for odors and the ceiling had dismantled parts. The hotel food is not really good.

Everything, the service, the assistance, the location and the people managing the resort and to all the employees. The guest house commitment to guest satisfaction is evident from the moment we arrived until we left. Special thanks to Nur at the front desk. They went above and beyond to recommend the best tour packages and must-visit places around the island. Their local knowledge and friendly demeanor made our trip planning seamless and enjoyable and to Bilal who prepares our breakfast and coffee every morning. Samura Guest House is a highly recommended for your stay, especially for its cleanliness and the exceptional friendliness of the staff. We look forward to returning to meet this amazing team again. See you soon! Thank you, Samura, for a memorable stay.

None

The whole stay was just amazing. Living right on this beautiful beach in the most amazing room was surely one kind of experience. The room was clean, and staff's hospitality was out of this world. The manager, Nur, and his staff, especially Bilal, were very friendly and took really great care of us in the whole trip. Highly recommended place, and I will surely be back soon!

Good service, peaceful atmosphere

The furniture is very worn out, we had a cockroach in our room

The location was amazing and looked to be one of the nicer accommodation on that island. We loved staying on the beach and 2 members of staff who worked in the kitchens and as waiters were excellent and so nice. The room was not the one we booked, as such it was small but it was comfortable and clean with great AirCon. However the manager was dishonest and his behaviour was very unprofessional. For this reason we gave this accommodation such a low rating. It is disappointing how one person can taint a business.

Unfortunately there were 3 instances we didn't like: 1. The worst was our transfer to the boat on our last day. The driver was due to collect us at 4.45pm for the 5pm boat. This was organised by the manager of the accommodation. The driver forgot and the staff were unable to help us and just said ring the manager. Thankfully he did come to help and he rang the boat company and asked them to delay the boat departure to give the driver time to arrive and collect us. However, the manager never apologized, and was totally unprofessional. Our international flight was at 7pm so we arrived at the airport 1 hour before our flight. While waiting for the driver, the manager got cross with us for not giving ourselves enough time to get to the airport but it was him who advised us upon check-in to get the 5pm boat which would give us 1 hour and 35 minutes in the airport (had we left on time) and it was him who booked the boat and transfers knowing our flight details. Upon check-in he assured us the 5pm boat was sufficient as the airport is small. He knew the mistake was on his side so he cancelled our booking.com reservation so that we couldn't write a review. We messaged him to ask why he cancelled our booking, he lied and said he didn't, we sent him a screenshot saying 'the accommodation has cancelled your booking because you didn't show up' and he didn't respond to that screenshot. We had to contact booking.com to say we had stayed and we asked them to reopen our booking so we could provide a review. This was disgraceful, dishonest behaviour. 2. Upon arrival we check-in and the room looked different to our booking.com photos. We had booked a 'King room with sea view' and we asked the manager who checked us in if we were in the correct room. He said his reservation said 'King garden room'. We could not find this room option on booking.com or their own website so we questioned it and he said just email booking.

An enchanted place,  on the most beautiful stretch of beach of the island. The door of your room  literally opens on the  beach, you fall asleep at the sound of the waves, wake up and have breakfast (and all meals if you like) on the white sand,  contemplating  the ocean. From our room, we  have  seen dolphins jumping in the ocean, just in front of the guesthouse! We absolutely loved our  days here. All the staff is  extremely helpful and professional; the manager Nur  is amazing, cared for us in all details, and went out of his way   to make this  the vacation we  had been dreaming  of. In fact, it far exceeded all our expectations! The location is fantastic,  the guesthouse is set directly on the  beach, in  the  shadow  of the coconut trees. Everything is  serene and relaxing,  the common areas are cared  in all  details to make for a magic environment:  hammocks, swings, mattress sunbeds and little charming touches and special corners  everywhere. The rooms are  beautifully decorated, with  wood furniture, an incredibly romantic canopy bed, and super comfy mattress.       Breakfast is served on the beach, and  delicious, with fruits, home made cake and omelette....  Coffee and soft drinks are freely available all day long, and  around 5pm, homemade pizza is served to  all guests.     Everything in Samura Maldives has been above  perfect, and we had an unforgettable experience.     Everything in Samura Maldives has been above  perfect, and we had an unforgettable experience.
