Our story

A warm welcome on a green island

Ostrov exists to show that the Maldives can be both extraordinary and within reach, without the gates and formality of a private resort.

On the eco-conscious island of Ukulhas, we grew from a single beachfront stay into a small family of boutique hotels, ocean tours, a café & bar and a little boutique. Through it all, one thing hasn't changed: genuine Maldivian hospitality, and the feeling of being looked after by people who love this island.
