“Best week - don't hesitate to stay at this hotel”
If you are contemplating a stay on Ukulhas, don't even question whether the Ranthari Hotel is the right choice or not - just book it. Perfect location, perfect welcome on arrival at the speedboat dock, excellent check-in and information about the hotel, along with a welcome drink. We couldn't have asked for more. Rezaul, Mustafa, and the rest of the staff were an absolute joy and we will do our best to go back. We particularly appreciated their advice and information, the tours we booked with expert crew (do them all!) and their kindness towards us. The food was of a high standard, there was good variety, and it was prepared in a very clean 'open view' kitchen. The room had everything we needed and was serviced daily. And the view from the room - amazing. The ability to walk out of the hotel and onto the sand was superb. The reef was right in front - much of the coral is damaged as you swim out about 50m to the reef's edge, but here it is reasonably healthy and abundant with fish. We saw it all, including a rare lionfish and turtles. There is some construction underway on the island - more hotels, a police station and a medical centre. While we could hear the construction a bit during the day, it didn't detract at all and there was no noise at night. The people on the island are courteous and it's incredible safe to walk around - we let our teenagers roam freely and reminded them to be respectful of the local culture. We cannot thank this hotel and its staff enough. Honestly, it was an incredible week. The only minor comment was that the pillows were a bit 'high' - we're used to lower pillows, but this is a personal choice
