About North Malé Atoll: resorts a speedboat away

North Malé Atoll wraps around the airport and the capital, and its resorts are reached by speedboat rather than seaplane, which makes it the natural choice for a short stay or a late arrival. Baros has welcomed guests since 1973 and is 25 minutes away; Bandos is just 7 km from the runway. Gili Lankanfushi, Huvafen Fushi with its underwater spa, One&Only Reethi Rah, Four Seasons Kuda Huraa and Patina on the Fari Islands complete a remarkable line-up, and VARU by Atmosphere serves Maldivian food at Kaagé.

Why it's on our list

  • Speedboat transfers
