Reviewed Sep 11, 2026I was looking for a soulful, quiet, and cozy place, and I found a gem. I came to this island seeking a sanctuary to heal my soul and find peace, and I found exactly that. From the moment I entered until the final goodbye, everybody made me feel like I had come back home and that they would always be waiting for me. My soul felt truly healed during my time with them, which was exactly what I had been searching for. It is such a rare combination. This island has a unique, magical energy, and its spirit feels ancient and just. In fact, the spirit of the island felt so kind that it didn't even want to say goodbye to me, and Captain Majed knows exactly what I mean. ;)) The room is very cozy, the bed is comfortable, and the shower pressure is excellent. A special mention must go to their coffee, its a standalone feature that deserves high praise! They truly serve the most delicious coffee. What truly sets them apart is their incredible flexibility. They completely tailored everything to my personal requests and preferences, demonstrating a level of hospitality that you would only expect from top-tier luxury hotels like the Four Seasons. For them, a guest's wish is the absolute priority, and they go above and beyond to make it happen. This dedication is priceless and shows the highest level of professionalism.The beach is out of this world gorgeous and pristine. The colors of the ocean and the sunsets are breathtaking; the clouds and sky look like huge canvases painted and hung across the horizon by God Himself. It left me in awe every sunset moment. The breakfasts and dinners are absolutely delicious. I want to specially thank the Captain's wife, she has golden hands, and her warmth and care are truly felt in the food these kind people serve every day. While I didn't personally go diving or snorkeling with the marine life this time, I saw that the Captain organizes the best excursions.
Their underwater world is incredibly rich and clearly stands out from other places. Shamooz is outstanding and does a magnificent job; he knows exactly how to smoothly handle any awkward moment or inconvenience with absolute grace. Absolutely everyone at Mamello, from the helpers to the hosts, has a heart of gold and you will feel it immediately. This place is a real hidden gem and an absolute find!I am deeply grateful to the island and its wonderful people, and I will always remember them with nothing but warmth, kindness, and positivity. I highly recommend this place to everyone looking for a home-like stay who wants to be surrounded by love. Wishing Mamello eternal success and prosperity always!

Shamooz and Capitano are truly wonderful people — kind, caring, helpful and always ready to make our stay as special as possible. Their hospitality was absolutely exceptional, and they made us feel more like friends than guests. ❤️
The guest house itself is fantastic: everything is spotlessly clean, comfortable and equipped with everything you could possibly need. You can really see how much care and attention they put into making their guests feel comfortable.
The excursions we did with them were simply incredible and definitely one of the highlights of our entire trip. Every experience was special, beautifully organized and gave us the chance to discover the magic of the Maldives in the best possible way. We shared some truly unforgettable moments that we will carry in our hearts forever. These are the kind of memories that stay with you long after the holiday is over. 🌊🐠🐢
Our six days here were unforgettable, and a huge part of that is thanks to the amazing people who welcomed us and took such good care of us throughout our stay.
We are leaving with our hearts full of beautiful memories and with a very special place in our hearts for this little corner of the Maldives. 🇲🇻🌴
We would come back without hesitation — and we truly hope we will! Thank you so much, Shamooz and Capitano, for your kindness, your smiles and for making our time here so special.
See you again — hopefully very soon! ❤️

Reviewed Aug 26, 2026Passione, amore, cura dei dettagli, sacrificio e attenzione per il cliente: sono questi gli ingredienti fenomenali che rendono speciale questa guest house.
Posso dire di averne viste parecchie tra Indonesia, Messico, Sri Lanka e Brasile, ma questa le batte davvero tutte. È un business di famiglia portato avanti in prima persona da Shamooz e Il Capitano, due persone fantastiche, generose, gentili e sempre con il sorriso.
Eravamo in quattro e abbiamo trascorso 5 notti meravigliose. La guest house è stata appena rinnovata e, secondo noi, è probabilmente la più bella dell’isola. Le camere sono molto spaziose, così come i bagni, i letti comodissimi e la pulizia semplicemente eccezionale.
Abbiamo fatto le escursioni con la loro barca, guidate da Il Capitano, e sono state un’esperienza fantastica. Nuotare con gli squali e le mante è qualcosa che porteremo per sempre con noi.
La colazione è semplice ma molto buona, mentre la cena è super abbondante e sempre a base di pesce fresco. Shamooz e Il Capitano sono un vero punto di riferimento durante il soggiorno: sempre disponibili ad aiutarti, a consigliarti e a rendere la tua esperienza ancora più speciale. E parlano anche italiano!
Per il compleanno di una nostra amica, senza dirci assolutamente nulla, ci hanno organizzato una cena sulla spiaggia con tanto di torta e candeline. Un gesto dolcissimo che dice davvero tanto sulla loro attenzione e sul cuore che mettono in quello che fanno.
Porteremo quest’isola nel cuore, ma soprattutto porteremo con noi il ricordo della Mamello Family. ❤️
P.S: La posizione è strategica: è l’unica guest house direttamente di fronte alla Bikini Beach. Letteralmente a 10 passi dalla spiaggia!
Grazie di cuore per queste 5 notti fantastiche. Ci vediamo presto ❤️

Reviewed Aug 21, 2026If you want somewhere to genuinely unwind, with wonderful service, reasonable prices and freshly prepared food, this is the place.
This is a small, family-run hotel with only eight or nine rooms, just a short walk from the beach.
Nothing feels corporate or manufactured. It is expertly run by a small team who seem genuinely determined to make sure you enjoy your stay.
The food was a real highlight. Everything was freshly prepared, and I went fishing three times during my stay. Our catch was cooked for us within 24 hours and was absolutely delicious. On one occasion we brought back three different types of fish and they happily prepared all three, without the slightest fuss.
The shark trip was another unforgettable experience. The captain was extremely experienced, helpful and had a great sense of humour, which made an already amazing trip even better.
This is a proper local Maldivian island, with only a handful of restaurants and small shops – and for me, that was part of its charm. I much prefer this to the expensive, artificial resort experience. You are staying within a real community and getting a genuine feel for island life, which is exactly what local-island stays offer.
The team organised our speedboat transfers directly to and from the airport and offered us lifts across the island whenever we needed them. Nothing seemed too much trouble.
I originally booked three nights and ended up staying fourteen. That probably says more than anything else I could write.
I could happily stay here for a month. It is simple, friendly, relaxed and back to nature – exactly what I want from the Maldives. I fully intend to return regularly.
I think I've found my Maldives unwinding place.
Dont sweat about the small stuff!

Reviewed Jul 21, 2026Siamo stati 15 giorni io e la mia ragazza al Mamello Beach Club, dove Shamhooz ci ha accolto e ci ha portato a casa facendoci conoscere il grande Capitano.
Fin dal primo impatto ci hanno fatto sentire a casa: accoglienti, simpatici, sempre pieni di cose da raccontare sulla loro cultura e sulla loro storia, arrivando anche a condividere aspetti personali della loro vita. Tutte le mattine e tutte le sere per 15 giorni ci perdevamo in lunghe chiacchierate, come se ci conoscessimo già da anni.
La camera era sempre pulita, sempre. Ogni nostra minima richiesta veniva ascoltata e cercavano sempre di soddisfarla nel migliore dei modi. Mai abbiamo preteso parlo di stupidagini.
La struttura si trova praticamente davanti al bikini beach, raggiungibile a piedi in un attimo. L’isola non è troppo turistica, quindi la spiaggia rimane spesso deserta, con il giusto numero di visitatori per poterla vivere al meglio. Alla public beach si possono vedere pesci di ogni tipo e godersi appieno la bellezza delle Maldive.
Ps: è un’isola locale, non un resort quindi le aspettative sono differenti. Se volete vivere i maldiviani e la scelta giusta altrimenti andate al resort senza lamentarvi.
I maldiviani sono le persone più amichevoli che abbia mai incontrato. La nostra fortuna è stata soggiornare durante il periodo dei Mondiali: ogni sera eravamo con le persone del posto, senza praticamente altri turisti, e loro erano sempre pronti a offrirci qualsiasi tipo di comfort, dall’acqua al cibo, fino a trovare il posto migliore per guardare la partita. Al punto che la mattina quando uscivamo ci salutavano tutti con una bella stretta di mano, l’isola avrà 800 abitanti.
Ci siamo affezionati così tanto che l’anno prossimo torneremo sicuramente.
Il Capitano è colui che organizza le escursioni: andate sul sicuro, perché è davvero il capo del mare. Insieme a Shamhooz formano una coppia fantastica.

Номера очень простые, но для короткого пребывания достаточно. Большие санузлы с душем под открытым небом. Кондиционер - зверь! Тихий и мощный. Вайфай - отличная скорость. Есть мини-холодильник. Очень хороший пляж в 5 мин ходьбы. свои бесплатные лежаки и зонтики. Мы были в апреле (конец сезона) - на пляже в 400 метров максимально было человек 20. Снорк - очень спорный, есть что посмотреть на общественном пляже, на бикини - сплошные обломки. Хорошие пляжные полотенца. Есть сушилки для мокрой одежды. Брали экскурсию на акул, скатов и мант (3 часа) - в полном восторге! У геста свой катер и экскурсия индивидуальная, хотя дороговато, но того стоит! У моей супруги был день рождения - нам устроили романтик на пляже с лобстером и тортиком! Респект! В общем для пребывания 3/4 дня самое то.
Матрасы жестковаты, освещение в комнатах очень скудное, вообще нет полок, чтобы разложить одежду. Завтраки однообразные, но голодными не останетесь. Ужины брать не рекомендую (жена хозяина ежедневно готовит одно и то же - рыба, рис, салатик из капусты). На острове есть пару ресторанчиков - там меню разнообразнее. В 9 вечера остров вымирает - пойти некуда ВООБЩЕ...но посмотреть звезды и послушать прибой на пляже - полнейший релакс!

Of the 5 different islands and hotels we visited, Mamello was our favourite. We stayed 5 nights, and the room was always spotless.
On our last night, they decorated our bed and left us thoughtful little gifts to remember our stay, which was extremely kind and made leaving seem very hard to do!
The managem team were brilliant and always were happy to chat and help with any questions or requests. Pick up and drop off to the boat was also seamless and stress free.
The Captain who took us on our excursions was a true gentleman and made us feel in very safe hands. It truly felt like a magical experience with just 3 of us in the water exploring the most beautiful reefs we saw in all the 3 weeks touring Ari Atoll. He showed us the wildlife in a respectful and considerate way, which made the experience so much better than many of the large group excursions we had done elsewhere. We would highly recommend Mamello, and the island of Feridhoo was also one of the most beautiful that we visited.
Everything was excellent.

Shamhooz, il capitano e tutto lo staff ci hanno fatto sentire a casa, coccolandoci e curando ogni cosa nei dettagli. Abbiamo mangiato benissimo, con la possibilità di scegliere ad ogni pasto fra due opzioni, una maldiviana e una continentale (entrambe buonissime e preparate con cura). Ci hanno servito pesce fresco ogni sera, sempre diverso e cucinato divinamente.
Abbiamo fatto due escursioni private in barca con il capitano, una in un banco di sabbia e una alla vicina isola di Madoogali (magnifiche esperienze da Robinson Crusoe ma con il capitano sempre presente). Una mattina ci ha accompagnato anche a fare snorkelling e grazie al suo occhio esperto abbiamo visto gli squali, le stelle di mare, i pesci pagliaccio, i polpi e tante altre specie.
La sera era molto bello ascoltare i racconti sulla cultura maldiviana di Shamhooz,
nato e cresciuto a Feridhoo.

La cena, è un'esplosione di sapori: riso o noodles, con un curry di accompagnamento e pesce alla griglia. E un dolce.
Sempre con acqua e succo di frutta, e caffè o tè!
La spiaggia è a 30mt e la zona bikini / in cui sdraiarsi è a 2 minuti a piedi, attrezzata con ombrelloni e sdraio.

Abbiamo parlato di tutto, dalle usanze locali, alla cucina, alla sanità / salute, all'economia, alla gestione comunale del suolo e all'asta dei cocchi, dei vari dialetti maldiviani. Non lo fanno per accaparrarsi clienti, lo fanno perchè ci tengono davvero.
Sanno consigliare le migliori escursioni (ne hanno una bella lista) e il Capitano guida il suo motoscafo e si immerge con te, alla ricerca della fauna più bella e delle migliori esperienze da fare.
Ci tornerei e lo consiglio vivamente!

Abbiamo adorato le chiacchierate dopo cena con Shamooz (meglio il suo italiano del mio inglese :) che ci ha raccontato parte della vita sull'isola e della cultura maldiviana. Perfette anche le escursioni fatte col capitano, sempre professionale e premuroso con mia figlia che è stata sempre al suo fianco durante gli snorkeling. La guest house si trova proprio a due passi dalla bikini beach, e rispetto alle altre strutture è quella più vicina, molto vicina anche ai ristoranti dell'isola. Ottimo cibo con cene abbondanti. Grazie ancora per i fantastici giorni trascorsi assieme, vi porteremo sempre nel cuore.

Отель , ближайший к бикинипляжу.
Номер, который нам предложили, находится справа ближний к обеденной зоне. Непосредственно к нему примыкает служебное помещение, в котором что-то постоянно работают, типа насоса или генератора. В комнате постоянный гул. Окна из номера выходят в общественный коридор, шумно от проходящих. Окна надо постоянно держать закрытыми, иначе ты находишься на виду у всех остальных гостей. Да и открыв их, все равно темно, тк вид из них на узкий коридор, сверху завешанный черной сеткой. Во всех остальных номерах тоже окна в окна соседей напротив на расстоянии около полутора метров.

We had an amazing experience at this hotel and the staff went above and beyond from start to finish.They were always ready to help us and we felt like home. Since the guesthouse is new they have improved many parts so they are better than the pictures.Even though there wasn't much light coming in, there were plenty of lights in the room. The rooms are also spacious and are being cleaned every day.For dinner there were always two options to choose from one maldivian and one continental. Everything was delicious and fresh. They also οffers varioys excursions. We did the snorkelling with nurse shark and it was very nice experience. The bikini beach is right across from the guesthouse and every hotel has their own sunbeds and umbrellas.In generally I highly recommend it and will absolutely come back.

Ambiente e stanze molto pulite. Preparano sempre colazione e cena con due proposte: continental o local, abbondanti ed entrambe buone!

L'isola offre un paio di bar/ristoranti dove eventualmente pranzare, due negozietti e diverse spiagge con accesso alla barriera. Per le donne, l'unica utilizzabile con costumi tradizionali è la Bikini Beach sulla quale vi è anche l'area riservata Mamello con sdraie ed ombrelloni. Le altre spiagge sono belle ma accessibili indossando pantaloncini e maglietta (spalle coperte nel rispetto della loro religione), nulla di impegnativo!

Il cibo è stato una piacevole sorpresa: dalla colazione maldiviana alle cene, ogni sera piatti vari e gustosi, con la possibilità di assaggiare specialità locali che ho trovato davvero deliziose. Ogni sera 2 opzioni tra cui scegliere con piatti buonissimi e abbondanti.
Ma il vero punto di forza di questa struttura sono il Capitano e Shamooz. Sono le anime del Mamello Beach Club: ti accolgono come se fossi a casa, con gentilezza, premura e attenzione. Si impegnano per farti vivere le Maldive con i loro occhi, attraverso racconti e soprattutto attraverso le escursioni in barca, che non sono semplici gite, ma vere e proprie esperienze indimenticabili. Ogni uscita è stata piena di divertimento ed emozione: il Capitano conosce perfettamente la fauna marina e sa sempre dove trovare gli animali più belli, rendendo ogni momento unico.

Reviewed Aug 20, 2025Мы под впечатлением от отдыха здесь! Атмосфера здесь действительно особенная: уют, тёплый приём и ощущение, что ты приехал не просто в отель, а к хорошим друзьям. Хозяева и персонал — невероятно добрые и внимательные люди, всегда готовы помочь и подсказать, будь то организация экскурсии, советы по магазину или мелочи в быту. Для нас, путешествующих с детьми (4 и 11 лет), это было особенно важно — и мы чувствовали себя совершенно спокойно и комфортно.
Мы жили в двух улучшенных номерах. Большая удобная кровать, хороший кондиционер (можно спать с ним всю ночь без дискомфорта), холодильник, ежедневная уборка, быстрый Wi‑Fi — всё, что нужно для отдыха. Ванная комната удивила размерами: просторная душевая, есть и тропический душ, и обычная лейка, а душ под открытым небом стал отдельным впечатлением — необычно и красиво.
Пляж всего в пяти минутах от отеля, чистый, с комфортными лежаками и очень удобным плавным входом в море. Отдельное удовольствие — местный подводный мир. Риф у острова просто потрясающий: видели черепах, скатов и даже небольших акул. Мы брали экскурсии — живой риф, плавание с мантами и акулами (даже наш младший ребёнок плыл с нами — всё абсолютно безопасно) — это впечатления, которые останутся надолго.
На острове есть несколько магазинов — сувениры, продукты (где-то можно платить картой, где-то только наличные), магазин с игрушками, одеждой и обувью. С питанием тоже проблем нет: завтракали и ужинали в отеле, всегда разнообразно и вкусно. Понравился ресторан Amba — там есть детское меню, еда не острая, блюда разнообразные. В Alihaa вкусно, но дороже и еда более пряная.
Для детей есть ещё один приятный бонус — большая и удобная детская площадка, где они могли играть пока мы отдыхали.
В целом отдых получился безумно тёплым, лёгким и очень душевным. Это тот случай, когда хочется не только вернуться самому, но и с радостью порекомендовать другим!

Abbiamo soggiornato a Mamello Guesthouse a fine luglio e… che dire? Andateci, davvero. Non pensateci nemmeno una volta.
Già prima di arrivare, Shamooz e il Capitano si sono occupati di tutto: hanno fatto in modo che qualcuno ci seguisse per i trasferimenti da e per l’aeroporto, organizzando ogni dettaglio. Ci siamo sentiti accolti e tranquilli dal primo istante.
La guesthouse è nuovissima e curatissima, con camere pulite e ben arredate, dotate di asciugamani, shampoo, phon, frigo con acqua fresca rifornita ogni giorno. Le stanze vengono pulite quotidianamente e la biancheria cambiata spesso.
A soli 20 metri c’è la spiaggia bikini, bellissima e comoda da raggiungere. E la cosa fantastica è che molti servizi sono già compresi nel prezzo: teli mare, ombrelloni, sdrai, acqua fresca in camera, pulizia quotidiana… tutto incluso, senza costi extra. Le uniche cose a parte sono le escursioni – che comunque valgono ogni centesimo, fatte direttamente con il Capitano e davvero indimenticabili.
La cucina è un altro punto forte: la moglie del Capitano ci ha deliziati ogni giorno con colazioni e cene, maldiviane e continentali, sempre buonissime.
Mamello è molto più di una guesthouse: è un’esperienza che ti resta nel cuore.
Calore, accoglienza, semplicità e bellezza.

The location is great, just off the beach and 5 minutes walk to bikini beach (closest guesthouse to bikini beach). The dinner was good, affordable and big, you should try it.
Don't miss the amazing snorkeling on the south-east part of the island (wear t-shirt and shorts!), probably 15 min walk away.
This island was the nicest of 4 islands we visited (we also visited Dhigurah, Dhangethi and Dhiffushi, we recommend the others in this order) and had the nicest beach.
Breakfast is as it is, everywhere the same (we have been to 4 islands) - Maldivian and continental, every day the same. The juices were very sweet, not natural fruit. But you get fresh fruit for breakfast.
Nothing to do with guesthouse (we wish they warned us though), but be aware of the sand flies while on the beach! My daughter and wife were bitten very badly and it itches so much, for many days. We are not sure where they bit us, maybe around sunset on the beach, apparently they are most active at dusk and dawn. Don't lie or sit on the sand, we read they stay close to the ground. Many mosquitoes too.

They welcomed us at harbor when we arrived at the island, took us to the hotel and offered welcome drinks. The room was clean and modernly decorated. It was cleaned everyday during our stay. The hotel is very close to bikini beach, you can also easily walk to the public beach. There are enough sun beds and umbrellas at the bikini beach. We were able to borrow snorkel equipment from the hotel. Everything was thought for the guests. Hot water was available all the time. Also, we enjoyed 24 hour free coffee and tea. You can choose continental or Maldivian breakfast, both are fulfilling. Dinners are amazing, we had fresh local fish.
These are available facilities, which are impressive, but for us, more important was the cozy and friendly atmosphere at the hotel. We met two amazing guests who also felt like home at MAMELLO. We will always remember our holiday with joy, love, and laughter.
Some info about the island: the bikini beach was okay, at first I had trouble finding sandy part inside the water but later I was able to find nice parts of the beach. What is special about this island is the coral reef. It is still live and looks like out of this world. For snorkeling, best area is opposite side of bikini beach. Look for best snorkeling sign at google maps. Another thing about the island is that it is close to an abandoned resort, which you can visit at a fair price. Snorkeling at this resort island is also fun. I hope you enjoy your time at Feridhoo.

I was happy to entrust my vacation to MAMELLO Beach Club Maldives because the guys did not let me down. Firstly, I would like to note the personal approach, starting with the organization of the transfer to the island. Secondly, they provided us with a wonderful room, they cleaned it every day, every day they changed towels and necessary accessories. The guys Majeed and Shamhooz are just wonderful people. Each time they tried to make our stay with them comfortable and pleasant.
I liked the excursion with Majeed to the sharks, they took us personally and it was very cool. We also took other excursions, which were also not bad, but we liked the one with the sharks more because it was individual and memorable. Majeed helped my daughter swim with sharks, accompanied her on an underwater excursion, since my daughter was very afraid and suffocated from not knowing how to swim and wear a mask, for this he is very grateful.
The excursion with manta rays was also interesting, it's just a pity that manta rays swim quickly, and I saw them only twice, since I am a poor swimmer I almost could not swim after them. There was an excursion to Madoogali 4 *, there is a very beautiful reef, but I was also afraid to swim alone because I feel insecure in the water. I swam there for 5 minutes and it was so beautiful underwater, but I could not do more, because I was afraid alone, I want to come back again in the future and swim more.
I liked the island itself, its locals, they were very kind and smiling. It was very nice to meet them and talk. It is so great to learn about different cultures, how these people live and their traditions. When we left, the guys gave us small souvenirs and wrote a wonderful letter, which was very nice of them.

I must also highlight the outstanding quality of the excursions. One morning, they took us to a spot where we were completely alone, and we had the incredible experience of swimming with manta rays—no crowds, no hordes of tourists, just a peaceful, unforgettable encounter. This alone sets Mamello apart from other places.
The food was always delicious, with a special mention to the local breakfast, which was absolutely amazing. In short, I could write an entire novel about how exceptional this hotel is, but I’ll just say that if you want to make memories forever while in the Maldives, this is the place to be.

Mamello is a recent building, facing the bikini beach and I loved how the common areas are arranged.
At the entrance there's the relax area and the restaurant, it eases the interaction within guests and the hosts (Shamhooz and Majeed), particularly after dinner.
It was amazing to spend time all together and listen about life in Maldives from Shamhooz and Majeed. They're always available to share information, from food recipes to practical information; always there for their guests 24/7, cheerful and supportive. I miss our teas together :-)
Internet connection was super good, great food at breakfast and dedicated sunbeds and umbrellas at the bikini beach.
Keep up the great job, Shamhooz and Majeed!
