“The Beehive in Male presents a mixed picture. Its proximity to the Villingili ferry and the inclusion of airport transfers are definite advantages, while the rooftop venue and in-house spa aim for a distinct experience; however, there seem to be considerable upkeep issues that could overshadow these positives.”
