A larger guesthouse than others on offer, Rashu Hiyaa is an impressive option, with an old Dhoni boat in a courtyard greeting you upon arrival.
The rooftop bar and restaurant are beautiful, and it’s just a short 2-minute walk to the bikini-friendly beach. Food consists of local dishes including tuna curries, lobster and grilled fish.
In summary, Rashu Hiyaa is a good option for those wanting to stay somewhere between a guesthouse and a resort. It’s very comfortable, close to a beautiful bikini-friendly beach and offers a very relaxing place to stay.
Rashu Hiyaa is ideal for travellers wanting an affordable island stay with a more local feel, without sacrificing comfort. It suits couples, friends and adventurous families looking to experience the Maldives beyond the private resorts.
Guests are drawn to its friendly atmosphere, contemporary design and excellent location on Dhiffushi Island. With white sand beaches nearby and opportunities for snorkelling, sandbank trips and dolphin cruises, it offers a laid-back way to enjoy the Maldives at a slower pace.
The Rooms
Rooms are very spacious, some with sea views and beautiful balconies. Other rooms have saunas fitted so you can indulge in some skin therapy at your leisure. A/C and modern amenities run throughout and while the guesthouse is not the height of luxury, it is undoubtedly well-appointed.
