How to reach Hurawalhi Island Resort
Hurawalhi is 148 km from Velana International Airport in Malé, reached by a seaplane transfer of approximately 40 minutes. Seaplanes operate during daylight hours only, so guests on evening flights should factor in a potential overnight in Malé before departure. The resort handles transfer coordination on booking.
Seaplane transfers typically run $250–600 per person round trip, booked through the property. A few islands in this band are also served by a domestic flight to a nearby regional airport plus a short boat — ask the property which routing is faster for your dates.
