Property was good and since the island was small there was no question of non walkable. There are small shopping places around and within hotel as well there is a shop. Have decent food options at the restaurant. Staff were very friendly and accomodative.

This hotel is exceptional, with impeccable service from the staff. We travelled with a 7 month old baby, and the staff (literally every single member) were incredible accommodating and just went out of their way to make our stay feel like a home! The room was large and really clean - can’t ask for any more. The excursions team were phenomenal as well - taking us few trips that have left memories stamped into us forever. I wish I could rate this hotel above a 10/10 by

Il personale è sempre stato molto gentile ed accogliente, le camere sono molto carine unica pecca un po l’odore. Abbiamo usufruito della spa più volte veramente molto brave le ragazze. I ragazzi delle escursioni molto simpatici e preparati. Il cibo è stato di nostro gradimento, abbiamo fatto anche una cena privata su spiaggia semplicemente fantastica!

Das erste Mal Malediven für uns März 2025 für 11 Tage. Wir sind mehr als zufrieden. Wären am liebsten noch länger geblieben. Das Hotel ist zentral gelegen. Zimmer war sauber und wurde täglich gereinigt. Hier und da ein paar kleinere Mängel an Wänden und oder am Duschkopf aber mit dem kann man sicher leben. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis top. Hotelpersonal war sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich jederzeit. Das Frühstücksbuffet könnte etwas mehr Auswahl haben aber das gängige ist vorhanden zb. Brot, Eier etc. Alles in allem eine super Unterkunft, können wir weiterempfehlen auch für Reisende die gerne aufs Budget achten. Transfer vom Velana Flughafen kostet 30 USD pro Person/Weg, die Organisation via Hotel hat perfekt geklappt. Am Abreisetag sogar pünktlich an unser Zimmer für die Abholung geklopft und wir haben sogar ein kleines Frühstückspaket gekriegt. Herzlichen Dank an das gesamte Araamu Team!

Amazing

Прекрасный отель, чистый, в номере есть все что нужно, вода, кофе,чай. Завтрак на любой вкус. Очень приятный ресторан, приятно было ужинать в саду. Отдельное спасибо всем работн кам отеля. Всегда искренне улыбаются, помогут вем что вы пожелаете, действительно делают ваш отдых приятным, комфортабельным. На пляжах вы сможете увидеть разных рыб, включая скатов больших и маленьких и даже встретили морскую змею. Экскурсии лучше брать в отеле, дешевле чем где то. Пляжный бар лучше Dhiffushi inn чем Stone, у Диффуши цены в 2 раза дешевле за те же напитки. Очень рекомендую Аараму отель. Еще раз спасибо большое всем работникам.

Both with my husband loved this property which is the property with the Maldivian character. The people and stuff are genuine and lovely. The food was good. The cleanliness of this place is the top notch. We were finding the beds with decorating elements on almost every day :) Just make sure that for the additional services you pay on regular basis as there was a little confusion at the end when the bills had got pilled up, however all was sort out immediately. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone. Best regards!

Hotel con encanto.Personal muy amable.Bikini beach

Hotel con muchísimo encanto, recién construido. Personal super amable (especialmente encantador el camarero, Shariful). Disfrutamos muchísimo la comidas del cocinero Kasun. Incluso te llevaban la comida la playa. Con una bikini beach a 50 metros con muy poca gente y color de agua increíble, con posibilidad de hacer snorkel. Tumbonas y sombrillas incluidas. Anocheceres increíbles. Sin duda, una isla con muchísimo encanto y perfecta para el relax. Las habitaciones acogedoras aunque un poco pequeñas. Calidad/precio excepcional.
