Really enjoyed my stay at Quick Sand. The staff were friendly and Ali was an exceptional host. He provided lots of valuable information and was often available to answer my questions. The place was always very clean and really well kept. The alfresco eating area was lovely. Would recommend QuickSand as a place to stay for those wanting a taste of a lovely local island.

Amazing place with friendly staff
My wife and me went to this place for 10 days during December. Overall there is really nothing to complain. The manager as well as all staff members always wanted our best. If we asked for something, we got it. Current issues mentioned by previous guests (breakfast selection etc.) are currently being fixed, so the manager told us. Although we also thought the breakfast selection wasn't "great", this is not a reason to complain. You are guest on a local island and therefore should know the differences to "resort islands". Regarding that note, we would ALWAYS go back to local islands (which we twice did already) You will not get a better insight in Maldivian lifestyle or meet as many amazing people as you do here. If you are looking for a local island (especially for diving), you should go to Rasdhoo. and if you are looking for an amazing and affordable place with amazing and friendly people, QUICKSAND is your place!
