Hotel is very clean and comfortable. Staff are friendly and we got good package deals from the hotel for a majority of our activities. Very much recommended.
Great hotel. Very friendly and helpful staff especially the reception boy Ibrahim and canteen boy Mohammed, they provide excellent service to guest. The location is good, 2 minutes walk to bikini beach. From the balcony can see the beautiful view of the blue sea. Spacious and clean room. The food is very tasty. Fantastic experience. Thanks for having us
Hotel datato. La spa non esiste.Doccia rotta
Ho chiesto con insistenza durante tutto il soggiorno di aggiustarla .Ma non c'è stato niente da fare.Sicuramente è molto sopravvalutato. Non riesco a capire come.abbia un punteggio così alto.
Best location,nice view,very clin room,nice staff.

La comida tenía muy buenos comentarios y la verdad que no es nada buena, encima te sientes vigilado mientras comes. La cama el colchón fatal y el baño que apenas te puedes mover. No volvería a este hotel
Az egy dolog, hogy a csapatunkból az egyik szobánk nem volt kész, átvittek egy m ásik hotelbe, de azt is éppen építették a semmiből. (de legalább szobám volt)
A White Shell hotel szobája sem volt jobb. Kissé koszos, puritán és rendkívül egyszerű. Ha el tudsz vonatkoztatni a szobától, és a természeti kincsekre összpontosítasz, akkor jól fogod magad érezni, de a szoba, illetve e hotel választása nem jó. :( Bár közel van a bikini Beach-hez, ez tehát jó, de nagyjából ez minden jó tulajdonsága. A reggelit biztosítják, de elég gagyi, és mindig ugyanaz. :(

Godt personale meget behjælpelige.elendig morgen mad der ikke blev fyldt op når der var tomt.skimmel svamp på værelset og det plastik betrukne træ gulv var ved at gå helt fra hinanden. Curtesy rummet hvor man kunne få et bad.havde et slukket køleskab, som lugtede forfærdeligt.
I had 5 nights at White Shell and 1 night at Seven Corals, which was 20$ more expensive than White Shell.
White Shell is value for money. Rooms and hotel-building is in very good quality and rooms are cleaned and smell fresh (unlike alot other hotel rooms in Maafushi apperently).
The service from staff is very good and very helpful.
Can only recommend this place if staying at Maafushi.
E' la mia seconda esperienza in questa guest house. Non me ne sono pentita. Hassan, il boss è veramente simpatico e attento, ti tratta come un amico, si rende disponibile a risolvere piccoli problemi organizzativi. Le escursioni le ho sempre fatte con Shadow Palm (consigliatissimo, sono i migliori), ma in quest'hotel ho sempre speso poco e mi sono sentita a casa. Sono molto puliti, gentili e davvero generosi. Consigliatissimo.
La situación es buena, a menos de 5 minutos de la bikini beach y del puerto. La limpieza del establecimiento perfecta al igual que la habitación.
La atención del personal exquisita, intentan hacerte la estancia agradable.
El desayuno bueno y abundante.
Hay toallas para la playa sin cargo.
Enchufes adaptados para conexión europea.
Botella de agua cortesía del hotel a diario.
Nosotros tuvimos un problema con el ferry y nos dejaron una habitación para tener nuestras cosas y ducharnos sin ningún coste.
Puedes pedir en el mismo hotel comida y cena. También te hacen desayuno para llevar si no estás en horario de 8 a 10.
Lo único que se debería mejorar es la cama supletoria, el colchón era de muelles y se notaban.
Quitando esto último recomiendo esta estancia, calidad precio es muy buena.
Muchas gracias a todo el personal por hacer de nuestra estancia unos días inolvidables.
Room is clean and spacious, staff are friendly , pro-active and helpful.
Dive shop is just next door! Near jetty and beach, good location.
The breakfast is very tasty indeed.
I wouldnt recommend staying here for a night due to bedbugs. Ive stayed in less than 3star hotels in the past and have never experienced being bitten by bedbugs. Until now, a week after Ive stayed, there are still marks all over my body. The hotel staff is nice and the location is conveniently situated in the center so i have no complaints on that
Abbiamo soggiornato 8 notti al Whiteshell, ottima esperienza!
Stanza ampia, sempre pulita e confortevole: vista mare, aria condizionata, frigo, cassaforte, televisione, bagno nuovo, ampia doccia, ogni giorno due bottigliette di acqua e asciugamani nuovi.
Personale estremamente gentile e disponibile, sia per quanto riguarda la ristorazione sia per l'organizzazione delle varie escursioni e dei trasporti. Hanno persino organizzato una sorpresa per il giorno del compleanno!
Avevamo scelto la mezza pensione: a colazione omelette, wurstel, pane tostato, marmellata, latte e cereali e frutta fresca; la cena era o a buffet oppure con ampia scelta alla carta. Tutto buonissimo, e nessun problema mangiando verdura cruda o frutta fresca.
Posizione ottima, a poche decine di metri dalla bikini beach.
Hotel assolutamente consigliato.

spartiate, rien du palace, mais bon emplacement
pas conçu pour la pluie, le vent et la tempête, fuites dans la chambre !
pas insonorisé du tout : tous les bruits de l'extérieur dans la chambre, notamment les bruits du vent et la musique à fond du commerçant d'en dessous.
Chambre spartiate, pas de style, sol qui gondole, porte fenêtre et fenêtres pas étanches.
Une charnière dévissée dans la penderie : je me suis coupée deux fois.
balcon microscopique ne permettant pas d'y mettre une chaise
Personnel sympathique aux petits soins.
Demie pension très copieuse
Muy buena habitación y baño, limpio, amplio y comodo. El desayuno buffet sencillo pero completo. Y la cena de media pensión, con menú muy habundante. No me importaría repetir.
