Superb. I rarely write reviews but Ranthari is worth it.
Pros:

I rarely write reviews but Ranthari is worth it.
1) far enough away from the mosque that there were no 5am calls to prayer disturbances
2) Staff beyond helpful. Like beyond good. Free laundry. I've not had that in 5* hotels.
It's not 4* - nothing in the Maldives local islands is but it's clean, working, great. I'm staying there again and I rarely do that with hotels.
Dive with Murakaby divers if you can.

Cons:

Very little wrong.

Amazing stay! Thank you!
Pros:

Razual (Manager) and staff were all so lovely! They really could not do enough for you!
I had the pleasure of being upgraded to a family room with ocean view and it was amazing to wake up in bed to the views of the ocean! Thank you!
Food from the restaurant was always cooked fresh, extremely well priced and very tasty!
Collected at port and returned to port - staff even stayed to wave me off - such a wonderful gesture I could have cried!
Directly on beachfront with own sun loungers and seating area.
Everything was just wonderful!

Cons:

Rooftop pool area could do with some maintenance, but who really needs the pool when I had an ocean like that to swim in!!

Pros:

Buenísima ubicación y un servicio super esmerado. De inicio a fin. Hemos viajado a muchas islas locales y este hotel está muy por encima del estandard en todo. Se agradece el esfuerzo y las ganas que le ponen.

Cons:

Que había obras de construcción al lado. Esto no es culpa del hotel y está toda la isla igual. Una pena por cierto. Van a destrozar la isla.

Esperienza paradisiaca e indimenticabile
Pros:

Questa recensione è dettata dal cuore e non solo dalla nostra esperienza presso questa struttura.
Abbiamo trascorso un soggiorno paradisiaco, tutto è stato fantastico e indimenticabile.
La struttura è bellissima, nuova e difronte alla stupenda bikini beach di Ukulhas.
La camera nuova, moderna, pulita, dotata di ogni comfort e con una vista mare da pelle d’oca veniva pulita e igienizzata tutti i giorni.
La colazione, il pranzo e la cena erano abbondanti, ottimi e con un ampio menù alla carta con piatti sublimi sia di carne che di pesce freschissimo.
L’accoglienza che ci hanno riservato dal primo all’ultimo giorno i ragazzi dello staff è stata da favola, ci siamo sentiti dei Re per tutto il soggiorno.
Musthafa, Razaul, Khan e tutte le ragazze che ci lavorano ci hanno praticamente coccolato e assistito per 7 giorni, dando sempre il massimo in tutto.
Ci sono venuti a prendere al porto al nostro arrivo con il traghetto e ci hanno riportato il giorno della partenza, oltre ad essere stati sempre disponibili per tutto.
Abbiamo scelto nella vasto catalogo delle escursioni quella del bagno a largo con tartarughe, mante e squali, un’esperienza davvero unica.
È stato tutto così perfetto che ci ritorneremo ancora, è diventato il nostro posto del cuore, lo rimarrà per sempre.

Cons:

Il giorno della partenza.

Pros:

Понравилось все с момента встречи на ресепшене! Был приятно впечатлен отношением персонала и сервисом. Ресаул был очень обходительным, во всем помогал и заряжал позитивом.

У нас был номер наверху с потрясающим видом на лагуну. В номере чисто комфортно, хороший кондиционер.

На крыше бассейн и место для медитаций. Тоже очень удобно утром и ночью.

Еда топчик для локальных островов!! Очень вкусный стейк из тунца и сок из passion fruit. Ходили в другие рестораны на острове, но ресторан в отеле нам понравился больше всего. И круто что столики на пляже под пальмами.

Также рекомендую брать экскурсию с мантами и акулами в отеле. Потому что вы будете вдвоем без лишних людей. Это очень удобно - не нужно ждать пока остальные вылезут из воды. Плюс манты пугаются когда толпа народа. А когда небольшая компания они спокойно плавают.

Highly recommended!!
Pros:

The hotel manager Raul and the rest of the staff members are particularly serviceminded and friendly. Although everything is close to the beach in such a small island, Ranthari still has the prime spot. The restaurant is excellent. The rooftop pool is clean and a great place to watch the sunset. We extended our stay at the island because we were so comfortable in this hotel.
