About the hotel
Full hotel facilities on a local island
Arrival Beach and Spa opened in 2025 and is the largest hotel on Gulhi. It rises up to seven floors on Lhosgas Magu, close to the jetty and about a minute’s walk from the beach, so the upper floors look out across the lagoon.
It suits travellers who want more than a guesthouse: a lift, a 24-hour front desk, a rooftop infinity pool, a spa and three places to eat. Room choice runs from good-value standard rooms to sea-view balconies, junior suites, interconnecting family rooms and a suite with its own jacuzzi.
The kitchen also puts on beach barbecues, Maldivian nights and sunset high tea, and the team books turtle snorkelling, sandbank trips and dolphin cruises.
