Cheap hotels in Baa Atoll

Transfer: We were transferred from Malé Airport by the resort's transfer partner, Manta Air seaplane. The transfer process was smooth, and we were greeted immediately after customs control. The waiting area for the seaplane flight was comfortable with a cozy lounge. The flight itself takes approximately 30-40 minutes and lands on a floating platform near the island, where you'll be picked up by boat. Location: The island is beautifully maintained, covered in lush greenery and coconut trees. In the evenings, hundreds of hermit crabs scuttle along the sandy paths, and fruit bats squabble in the treetops. The house reef is fantastic, offering plenty of snorkeling opportunities to see a variety of fish, including occasional curious reef sharks. Snorkeling equipment rental is available and was complimentary during our stay. Sunbeds with umbrellas are spaced out along the beach, ensuring privacy and relaxation. The island is relatively small, taking about 20-30 minutes to walk around. Room: Our room was on the second floor with an ocean view. There are four rooms per house, two on the ground floor and two on the first. Ground-floor rooms have panoramic glass doors leading directly to a small green yard and the beach beyond, while second-floor rooms have a balcony. The bed was large and comfortable, and all necessary toiletries and towels were provided. However, we didn't find slippers (which weren't really needed) and instead of toothpaste, tooth cleaning tablets were available. It's worth noting that in the evenings, geckos were often seen near our entrance, although they didn't enter the room. Crew: All the on-site personnel were cheerful and eager to help. Upon arrival, we were assigned a dedicated remote butler, Manu, who we could contact via WhatsApp. This allowed us to easily schedule and reschedule our activities. You can also use the Avani app for this, but we found that working with Manu was more convenient and added a personal touch.

most welcoming arrival! attentive and friendly hosts. Delicious Maledivian breakfast, they even went to the market when we asked for some extra chillies. We enjoyed our room (upstairs) a lot. The bikini beach at the south of the island was also beautiful, with shade, hammoks and a bit different scenery to other islands.

Thank you to Kadir and all other staff, they took care of us really well, they all were nice, polite and helpful. The room was really beautiful, worth every penny. The bed is big and comfortable, the whole apartment is on bigger size with a lot of space. We felt comfy there. The breakfast was delicious too. They gave us few suprises as fresh coconuts in the rooms, fresh fruit, plate of maldivian snacks and thank you note made of flowers on the bed. It's close to the beach so location is great too!

Everything. It was clean. It was well located for mostly everyone to get an amazing sea view in the panoramic view windows. I wish it had more indoor communal seating. Like at the reception a sofa or something so if people weren’t eating they can sit there rather than sitting in the dining area with the diners. Or sitting outside by the pool. It doesn’t change my amazing experience, just an idea for more improvement. They made everything work, whatever you’d ask they made it work. I’ve never experienced more hardworking hotel staff.

Perfect place for solo travellers. Service was excellent, Mohamed is a very generous and great man. The beaches on the island and surrounding islands are stunning. Maldivian culture was great to experience. Excellent all round.

Wonderful hotel with beachfront location. Super attentive staff always welcoming you with a smile. We did a couple of excursions with them and they were great. It was by far the best hotel in our trip to Maldives. They supply beach towels every day and lovely breakfast. We tried the dinner at the beach and it was great.

Having traveled extensively across the Maldives, I can confidently say that Bageecha Stay is the best guesthouse I have ever experienced. From the moment I arrived, it was clear that this was more than just a place to stay—it felt like home, thanks to the incredible hospitality and warm atmosphere created by the host, Ismael, and his exceptional team. Ismael went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of my visit was perfect. His attention to detail, deep knowledge of the island, and genuine care for his guests made my stay unforgettable. Whether organizing activities or sharing insights about local life, his passion for hospitality truly shone through. Every meal was a masterpiece, combining fresh local ingredients with remarkable skill and creativity. From mouthwatering Maldivian delicacies to innovative international dishes, each bite was a treat. I can honestly say it was some of the best food I’ve had in the Maldives, and I looked forward to every meal during my stay. The guesthouse itself was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, offering a perfect balance of modern amenities and local charm. Its location on Dharavandhoo is ideal for exploring the stunning beauty of Baa Atoll, from its pristine beaches to the incredible underwater world of Hanifaru Bay. Bageecha Stay is a shining example of what guesthouses in the Maldives should strive to be. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic, warm, and unforgettable Maldivian experience. Thank you, Ismael and Seneca, for making my stay so special—I can’t wait to return!
