Getting there
Ramzu Villa Thoddoo is on Thoddoo in North Ari Atoll, a local island about 68 km from Velana International Airport (MLE). Most guests come by shared speedboat from Malé or the airport — about 60 minutes — 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.
