Hotel · Chaandhanee Magu, Gulhi
Avyanna Gulhi Beach Hotel, Gulhi Island, Maldives
A modern hotel on the beach side of the island, with sea-view balconies, a lift and its own seafood restaurant.
About the hotel
A smart, modern hotel by the sea
Avyanna is one of the newest and smartest hotels on Gulhi. It stands on the beach side of Chaandhanee Magu, with rooms that face the sunrise over the sea, the sunset, or the island’s greenery.
Inside it feels like a city hotel: a lift, key-card access to floors and rooms, and clean, bright rooms with smart TVs, safes and good showers. That makes it a comfortable choice for anyone who would rather avoid stairs.
Its restaurant, Boava, is the reason many guests stay. It specialises in seafood, from whole baked reef fish to blue crab curry with roshi, and also cooks Maldivian, Asian and continental dishes, with vegetarian, vegan and children’s options.
