Getting there
Evila Inn Thoddoo is on Thoddoo in North Ari Atoll, a local island about 69 km from Velana International Airport (MLE). Most guests come by shared speedboat from Malé or the airport — about 1½ hours — which the property can usually book for you. Some islands are also on the public ferry network, which is far cheaper but much slower and runs on set days.
Shared speedboats this far from Malé typically cost about $30–100 per person each way, depending on distance, and run to a timetable rather than on demand — confirm the day and time with the property. Where the public ferry runs, it costs only a few dollars.

Evila Inn Thoddoo earns overwhelmingly positive feedback, with guests consistently highlighting the spacious, well-appointed rooms with beautiful palm/jungle views, generous and varied full-board meals with fresh juices and fruit, and the attentive, helpful owner Ahmed. The handful of complaints are minor — no à-la-carte menu, occasional lapses in staff proactiveness, and a brief water outage — and do little to dent an otherwise strong reputation for value and warm hospitality.
