How to reach Old Town Inn Maldives
Old Town Inn is on Gaafaru island, 61 km from Malé, and the transfer is by seaplane. Seaplane access typically means arriving and departing in daylight hours. The island is in Gaafaru Atoll, separate from the main North Malé Atoll cluster, so plan the seaplane leg as a core part of the trip.
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.
The journey
Step by step
- Fly to Malé. Arrive at Velana International Airport (MLE), the Maldives' main international gateway, served by direct flights from Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
- Seaplane transfer. Transfer onward by scenic seaplane over the atolls — roughly 61 km. Seaplanes operate in daylight hours only, so a late arrival may mean an overnight in Malé.
- Arrive at Old Town Inn Maldives. Settle in and start your stay.
