A place to stay on Omadhoo
Hitha Maldives is a small guest house on Omadhoo island, roughly 77 km from Malé by seaplane. It sits directly on the beach, with outdoor dining space, a garden, and a barbecue area. Rooms are compact but include air conditioning, private bathrooms, coffee machines, and kitchen equipment. With a Google rating of 4.9/5 from 103 reviews, the property draws guests who prefer a local island stay over a large resort. Bicycle rental, snorkelling excursions, canoeing, fishing trips, and cultural tours can all be arranged through the guest house.
The honest verdict
A small, well-rated beachfront guest house on a local Maldivian island, with basic but functional rooms and easy access to water activities arranged through local operators.
Best for
- Budget-conscious travellers wanting a beachfront base
- Couples or small families on a local island
- Those keen on snorkelling, fishing, or canoeing excursions
- Travellers after a quieter, non-resort Maldives experience
Maybe not ideal for
- Guests expecting resort-scale facilities
- Those wanting overwater villas or a house reef
- Travellers who need alcohol on-site (local island rules apply)
What a stay costs
Indicative room-only estimate from the lowest nightly rate — excludes airport transfers, taxes and seasonal price changes. Many Maldives properties also require a minimum stay. Check live rates for your dates.
Right on the beach
The guest house sits beachfront on Omadhoo, with a private beach area, outdoor furniture, and an outdoor dining area. The garden adds a small buffer between the rooms and the shore.
Outdoor cooking and dining
Both room types include access to barbecue facilities, and the property has a picnic area and outdoor dining space. It is a practical setup for guests who want to eat outside rather than head to a restaurant every meal.
Rooms with kitchen equipment
Each room has a coffee machine, refrigerator, electric kettle, toaster, and kitchenware. That level of self-catering kit is unusual for a small guest house and gives guests genuine flexibility.
Local island setting on Omadhoo
Omadhoo is a local Maldivian island, not a resort island. A water swing popular on social media sits about 240 metres away, and a restaurant called Island Waves is roughly 370 metres from the property.
