Budget Hotels in South Ari Atoll

"Beautiful island with nice sandy beach, and nice house reef just 30-50 meters away from beach villa, can go snorkeling anytime according to guest desire, dont need a boat ride. Sea plane schedule to leave the island is difficult to arrange according to guest request, either too early or too close to guest flight time/speed boat ride from Male to somewhere else. "

"Absolutely amazing, you need to stay in an overwater sunset villa w/ pool, this gets you exclusive club access basically to yourself and many other added benefits/perks and you must do all inclusive or the Grand all inclusive. Only complaint is my wife is the pickiest eater you'll meet so it took some adjustment to find meals she liked (even from the kids menu) but all restaurants were super accommodating in customizing her meal to anything she wanted and by day 2 we had her eating like a king."

"Just tropical paradise."

"Amazing staff, beautiful coral reef "

"Amazing island and amazing food "

"Nothing All was as showed and described Great place the getaway with that someone special on your live I will come back several times and enjoyed as the very first time.!!!"

"This was our trip to the Maldives and our first time at Lily's. Traveling during the low season helped us avoid the crowds and high prices. The Sunset water villa, which comes with a personal butler, is highly recommended. Our butler, Mussey, took care of all our needs. While our stay wasn't perfect, Mussey resolved all issues efficiently and swiftly. Despite being one of the older properties in the Maldives, Lily's maintains its rooms and grounds very well. With over six decades combined in the hospitality industry, my wife and I can be quite critical about accommodations and service standards. We'll return to collect our special memories scattered throughout the resort and island."

"Lovely staff, stunning accommodation, good food, great excursions. We went on snorkelling trips to look for Whale Sharks, turtles and Manta Rays and saw them all super close to us. Prices also weren’t quite as punitive as we’ve seen in the Maldives before (eg champagne for USD50, cocktails for USD12). "

"We were so excited because our host was from USA. But we wrong we had the worst ever experience bye for with the host, we stayed in this resort for 8 nights in the grand water villas #419. We had a chance only once at welcome and good-bye that was our help from the host."
