Crown Beach Hotel Maldives

+ La gentilezza delle ragazze.

- Stanza minuscola e sporca, mai ripulita, letto e divano zozzi, acqua calda quasi inesistente, asciugamani portati via e mai rimessi. Colazione scarsissima. Scortesia totale del gestore. Mai più

+ El trato del personal recepción

- Pared nueva en la piscina. No está abierto como se ve en las fotos. Pasillos con humedades. Habitación: cristal del baño partido, paredes sin pintura, cortinas con agujeros enormes. Mesa oxidada de terraza. Agua poco caliente. Baño da al pasillo y se oye todo por una rejilla. Nevera no enfría nada. Aire oxidado cables a la vista un peligro para cualquiera. Toallas viejas. Desayuno justo.

+ Overall: Sky Beach Maldives Hotel failed to deliver on every basic expectation. The room, service, and amenities were substandard, and the staff's indifference only added to the frustration. While the Maldives is known for its beauty and hospitality, this hotel was a stark contrast. I would not recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable or enjoyable stay, especially for a special occasion like a honeymoon. Rating: 1/5. Save yourself the disappointment and look elsewhere.

- Rating: 1/5. Save yourself the disappointment and look elsewhere. This review might be long to read, but I promise it’s worth your time if you’re considering staying at Sky Beach Maldives Hotel. Unfortunately, my experience there was nothing short of disappointing. Service: The service was shockingly poor and impolite. Staff showed little interest in addressing guest concerns, and their attitude was dismissive. When I highlighted issues with the room, a staff member responded with a smile and said, "You don't plan to stay in the room; you have to go out." This level of unprofessionalism left me speechless. Additionally, we had requested a small gesture as part of our honeymoon, but this was simply ignored without any acknowledgment, adding to the overall disappointment. Room Conditions: The room was far below acceptable standards. Basic amenities like shampoo and shower gel were missing, and the room was still dirty upon arrival. We had to request toilet paper, which should be a given in any accommodation. The air conditioning was not working properly—it was both noisy and ineffective, making it difficult to rest. The view, which I had looked forward to, was nothing but a wall. The windows didn't open, and the blinds were stuck, leaving us feeling trapped in a small, stuffy, and unpleasant-smelling space(pics attached) To make matters worse, the WiFi in the room was unreliable and barely worked, making it challenging to stay connected or plan activities. Breakfast: Breakfast was an absolute disappointment. The food was tasteless, with hardly anything edible, and the coffee was just powdery instant coffee. When I asked for a proper coffee from a machine, they charged an additional $5—a small but irritating detail given the already subpar experience. Departure: Even the farewell was cold and indifferent. No one asked how our stay was or bothered to say goodbye.

+ That was our 4th island and hotel in the Maldives, the worst in the every way. The island is quite nice. Yes, it is 150m to a very small beach with a view of the port, shared by several hotels. A longer and nicer beach is on the other side of the island. There's nothing positive to say about the hotel.

- Sky Beach is the worst-located hotel on the island. The hotel is very worn out, in a very poor location in relation to local attractions. We had a room on the 3rd floor, the elevator was not working throughout our stay. There was a cockroach the size of a spoon in the bed. Mold was present next to the bed on the wall. The view from the window was of the side wall of the building with an air conditioning unit. The nearest beach is about 150 m away, but it is very small with a view of the port, the nearby resort island, and boats passing by very close. A nice beach is on the other side of the island, about 1 km away. Similarly, good restaurants where we went to eat even breakfast. Breakfast at the hotel was very unappetizing and cold: sausages, omelet. One fruit (watermelon), one cake. The only edible things were toast and tuna salad (but it only appeared once). The pool is completely useless and right next to the dining area, not to be confused with a restaurant, because there is none in the hotel. I wouldn't wish for anyone to find themselves in this hotel during their dream vacation.

+ Całkiem czyste duże ładne pokoje

- Śniadanie tragiczne, suchy chleb tostowy, jedyne co do niego podane to uschnięte ogórki i dżem, pieczarki, kiełbasa i szare omlety których baliśmy się dotknąć. Sok zrobiony ze strasznie słodkiego koncentratu, nie nadawał się do picia. Pierwszego dnia tylko trafiliśmy na pancakes. Faktycznie nie było co zjeść, jak na hotel oceniany na 4 gwiazdki, śniadanie co najwyżej jak z hostelu. Kolejna rzecz to wymeldowanie, na bookingu podane jest do 12-13, o 11:20 pracownik zapukał do pokoju i miał czelność zapytać kiedy wyjeżdżamy i czy jesteśmy w stanie wcześniej opuścić pokój, o 11:55 również po opuszczeniu pokoju stoi i czeka aż się łaskawie ,,wyniesiemy’’. Internet nie działał cały pobyt, nie byliśmy w stanie zrobić odprawy na samolot, musieliśmy się udać do innego miejsca po internet. Nie polecam hotelu i nie radzę sugerować się pozytywnymi opiniami poprzez które zarezerwowaliśmy pobyt.

+ Posizione

- Struttura da ristrutturare. Cibo ripetitivo e con poca scelta. Servizio spiaggia assente

+ La struttura è carina, piuttosto nuova e ristrutturata da poco. Molto vicina alla spiaggia più bella. Il personale è molto accogliente. Queste sono le uniche cose positive.

- Il cibo fa pena. Non c’è varietà né a colazione né tantomeno agli altri pasti. Pollo, patate e riso o pasta.. SU UN’ISOLA!!! In 4 giorni a pranzo abbiamo sempre e solo visto pollo fritto e a cena pollo in qualche altra maniera (grigliato, al curry, stufato) tanto che dopo la prima volta siamo andati a mangiare sempre fuori a cena! La qualità pessima, cucinato male e se avete problemi di stomaco sono affari vostri. Noi avevamo preso la mezza pensione e dopo la prima cena, dove ho dovuto ordinare alla carta, abbiamo deciso di usare il pasto a pranzo. Bene, io ho problemi sulla digestione e vi posso garantire che ho digiunato 4 giorni. L’unica volta che ho chiesto di rifarmi un piatto, in quanto allergica al pomodoro, me l’hanno portato ma storcendo il naso. Con questo, se non ci prendete da mangiare va tutto bene. Inoltre, ci hanno organizzato i trasporti tenendoci ad aspettare in aeroporto all’andata 2 ore e mezzo e al ritorno 4.. pessimo. Per quanto riguarda la pulizia è molto approssimativa, le lenzuola non erano il massimo avevano qualche macchia qua e là. Il servizio di pulizia stanza quotidiano è praticamente inesistente, ti rifanno il letto e arrivederci e grazie. Un servizio tutto sommato ben lontano dal quattro stelle che vorrebbero essere.

- There is nothing about window in reserved room.We talked with hotel management and they didn’t solved issue.You don’t have any Air circulation in the room.During the reservation We can’t see anything about window related room info.We don’t like it.

+ The rooms are spacious. The location is good and in walking distance to the beach and restaurants.

- We visited Sky Beach Hotel a year ago and unfortunately the management team and the chef have changed recently resulting in a significant drop in quality and service. The food was delicious in the past thanks to a talented chef and a wonderful general manager. During this year's stay the restaurant and breakfast offering was below expectations. The breakfast selection was basic and contained mostly only toast with jam / butter, boiled eggs, French toast, beans, one type of fruit, tuna salad and chapati. Fried, scrambled eggs, omelet and oats were available on demand. Fresh coffee was not available, instead, Nescafe Instant coffee sachets were provided. Descriptions on the a la carte menu did not match the actual dish and thus the food was disappointing. Thankfully, there are other restaurants nearby (e.g. The Kettle) which offer a great dining experience. We had an unpleasant housekeeping issue on the evening of our arrival which left an untidy impression on us. The issue was resolved by insisting to address the problem at hand. The team was not really pro-active and wanted to deal with it the next day, which was unacceptable for us. The public beach was in walking distance from the hotel. The majority of the hotel's beach chairs were broken. There were only 3 available. Umbrellas were not provided, and we had to get them from another guest house.

+ Hotel was in a very good location, walking distance from Bibee beach and shops/ coffee! I was solo travelling, and the hotel and area felt super safe! The room itself was perfect, was very clean and the bed was super comfy! I had a very goodnight sleep. The bathroom and shower was also very nice. The balcony was lovely and had views of the hotel pool. The staff were very helpful and super friendly. They were contactable via WhatsApp or at the desk. They arrange for me to have my clothes dry cleaned & they booked me and a friend onto a dolphin cruise, which we had all to ourselves!

+ The staff were always friendly and went out of their way for you. We were stuck in the Maldives and ended up staying in this hotel for 10 nights instead of our original 4 nights. The location was great, close to the beach and restaurants, the excursions they had were always good value for money.

- Nothing

+ The staff is very responsive and polite, and any orders can be arranged via WhatsApp. You can always ask for a ride anywhere on the island (free of charge) or a ride back to the hotel. Excursions are reasonably priced, even for private tours for two. The furniture and fixtures are in good condition. We had no complaints about the WiFi. The beach is two minutes away.

- Minor cosmetic repair is desired, but not critical. Breakfast selection is limited, but you won't go hungry. A shipping canal runs along the beach, with speedboats running often in a few meters away.

+ The host was nice and helpful! The room is quite big and has a fridge in it. The hotel offered various trips in good prices (snorkeling on a coral reef, with turtles, dolphins watching, etc.) Really nice rooftop bar, but they could make it more entertaining so that tourists would want to visit it and spend some time there. Various breakfasts served in the buffet style.

- Air conditioning is quite weak and even with the temperature set to 16 degrees it was still quite hot. Fortunately, there was a ceiling fan that cooled the room. Swimming pool is really nice, but the temperature is quite high so it is not a refresher in that weather. Payment issues - please note, that even if they put the amount to be paid in USD, their bank charges you in MVR, so if you have USD balance on Revolut, it still recharges you from USD to MVR, so be aware of additional FX charges.

+ El hotel se encuentra a pocos pasos de bikini beach, que es la playa donde se puede bañar. Te dan toallas y sillas para pasar el tiempo en la misma. El personal del hotel siempre muy amable y atentos a cualquier requerimiento. La comida muy deliciosa, también tienen una terraza desde la cual se puede apreciar el atardecer y tomar algo o comer. Pasamos unos días muy agradables en su isla y queremos agradecer a todo el personal por toda su atención durante nuestra estadía.

+ El personal nos recibió con una toalla fría y una bebida, muy bueno para el calor que hacía en Male. El hotel brinda un buen desayuno y también cuenta con un restaurante, lo cual resultó muy cómodo para nuestra estadía. También nos facilitaron el traslado a una isla cercana ya que habíamos reservado en un resort también. Todo estuvo excelente! Gracias por organizar nuestros traslados

+ Buena relación precio-calidad. Personal muy atento, te comunicas por watsapp para cualquier cosa. Playa del hotel a 2 minutos, muy limplia y cuidada, te ponen toallas, sombrilla y hamacas solo pedirlo. duchas con mámpara, en Maldivas no siempre es así.

+ La struttura bella grande, camere molto spaziose e piscina sempre pulita . La posizione era ottima. Volevo ringraziare lo staff davvero super gentili tutti in particolare Puja, Pratistha e il gestore della struttura che ci ha sempre aiutato in qualsiasi richiesta gli abbiamo fatto.

+ Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen, dass das Personal sehr freundlich und lieb war. Wir waren mit einem Baby in der Unterkunft und es hat uns sehr Freude gemacht in diesem Hotel zu übernachten. Ganz oben gibt es eine Terrasse. Man kann da sehr schön Abend verbringen Sonnenuntergang sowie Sonnenaufgang mit erleben…

+ Personal hilfsbereit und freundlich. Zimmer sind gut ausgestattet bloß fehlen paar Ablagen für 3 Personen aber für 2 Personen ist es okay. Sonst ist das Hotel sehr schön und sauber.

- Es hat uns nicht gefallen am Zimmerknopf den nicht Stören und Saubermachen Schild aufzuhängen. Bin es gewöhnt Zimmer wird jeden Tage gereinigt. Essen: es war wenig Auswahl oder oft das gleiche und einmal war es schon fast leer. Pool: hat sehr nach Chlor gerochen, da könnte man was verändern.

+ Personal war immer sehr freundlich und Hilfsbereit.

- Essen ist fast immer gleich, hätte uns Abwechslungsreiches Essen gewünscht.

+ Camera grande e spaziosa, letto e cuscini comodi. Ottima posizione, a 1 Min a piedi dalla spiaggia nord. Personale super disponibile e attento.

- Aria condizionata in camera funzionante, ma dispositivo datato, quindi bisognava tenerlo acceso tutta la notte per mantenere fresco. Colazione a buffet buona ma molto focalizzata sul salato, quindi poco varia per gli standard italiani

+ Rent, snill betjening, bra lokasjon

+ Gentilezza e vicinanza alla spiaggia

- Colazione poco assortita

+ Struttura nuova e pulitissima. Personale super gentile e disponibile. Colazione continentale buona e ottimo il ristorante. In 5 giorni ho sempre mangiato cose diverse. Lettini e ombrellone gratuiti sulla spiaggia più bella dell’isola. Ottimo servizio transfer da e per il porto. Ci tornerei sicuramente

- Nulla

+ A great stay. Every single member of staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable and comfortable.
