I frequently travel to the Maldives for work and on a day off we visited Dhiffushi. Rashu Hiyaa had great service, beautiful upscale rooms, and beachfront access at very reasonable prices. The food was pretty good too. They also arranged a snorkeling excursion for us. The private charter speedboat transfer to/from Male' was reasonably priced. I would definitely visit Dhiffushi again and stay at Rashu Hiyaa.

we stayed at diffushi form the 9th to the 14th of july 2021.
We weren't fortunate enuf to stay at this hotel as we had booked another hotel online and some some weird reason this property did not come up for our dates.
we spotted Rashu hiyaa while exploring the island on our very first day and the rooms are exceptional for the price. the entire hotel is very tastefully decorated. rooms are spacious for a family of fourand exceptionally clean. the beach view rooms are overlooking the beach. this property also has its own supermarket called "Whim"where a lot of international brands of snacks like biscuits chips etc are available. they also have a restaurant - Kettle- which caters to the taste of international travellers.
the best part about the property is the staff - Ghous and Anjali are front desk staff, who always went out of their way to help with anything we needed (this is considering we weren't even staying at their hotel and just made their acquaintance while walking by the place).....chef Arun at Kettle, was fantastic and very accommodating with our requests of pasta, pizza, tandoori fish and chicken curry.
they made our stay memorable....i would definitely recommend this hotel to everyone.....there isn't a better place to stay on Dhifussi.

We went to Rashu Hiyaa on November 2023 for 7 nights. We have a very good experience with the hotel and the personnel of it. We found the room clean and comfortable, the personnel was cleaning the room every day. The food at the restaurant was very good and tasty, and the coffee was the best coffee I have ever tried until now. The beach is near to the hotel and the restaurant is on the beach. Every day we received clean towels, sun beds and umbrellas from the personnel and what impressed me was that the personnel was cleaning the restaurant and the hotel three times per day at least.
We went to some excursions with the captain and one boy, both great and friendly persons, as well as the hole people we met there. I strongly recommend Rashu Hiyaa if you want to visit Dhiffushi island on Maldives.

The welcome was very warm and the staff is very good, quality of service is impeccable but all this must be accompanied by the quality of the food which does not reach the least desired.

Very poor breakfast which has been repeated for 3 days without the slightest change or improvement.
The coffee which only resembles coffee with its color and the rest is water with a poor taste, the pancake is the same, the juice is a soluble juice yet we are in a country where we find the best fruits of the season.

Good luck :)

This was just a life-saving place for us. We initially checked in to a horrible hotel at Dhiffushi, which was nothing but a disaster, and we had to check out the next day, but Thejas from Rashu Hiya was amazing. he picked us up before 10.30 am and took us to Rashu Hiya and had the room ready for us. the food is good at the Kettle, and most of all, Rashu Hiya is very clean and very calming. it just boosted our stressed minds and took us on a great staycation.

They also arranged a romantic dinner with a beautiful cake even though it was a very short notice from my end for my boyfriend's birthday and They were so attentive and very kind to us.

I would highly recommend them to anyone I know and its just the perfect place for a good relaxing vacation.

This hotel is very good in comparison to other hotels in the Islands around. Nice room with a seaview (top floor). And very clean. The AC worked Nicely as well. I do not reccomend the restaurant called the kettle next door though.

Great place to stay. The rooms are very comfortable, we stayed in a nice view room which shows the amazing beach.

The staff are friendly and helpful.
The only thing which was lacking is there was no TV service available in the property.

The room has a TV but no channels.
We arrived on the 3rd day of Euro 24 and was planing to watch the matches at room but unfortunately no channels.

Not even local channels.

Great ocean front property. We were in room 303 and it was lovely and was ocean front. We loved the balcony for morning quiet time and reading. The guest house is very clean and the staff is helpful and courteous. I would highly recommend the location.

staff without education. It is not a hotel, it is a disgusting guest house. Delirious people who make promises to their clients and do not keep them. They do not have seriousness. I'm not the only one who did it. Not recommended for anyone. It is preferable to book at the hotel next door where they are serious and their facilities are truly beautiful and new. I highly recommend Araamu Holidays. if you do not want to have a headache with these people who do not have manners and ruin your vacation DO NOT STAY HERE! I am a traveler with 25 known countries and I have support to comment on this mediocre place.
