How to reach The Grand View
The Grand View is 2 km from Velana International Airport in Malé, linked by the Sinamalé Bridge road. An airport shuttle is available at an extra charge. No seaplane or domestic flight is involved — the journey is a short road transfer, making it convenient for late arrivals or early departures.
An airport taxi is inexpensive — typically MVR 60–100 (about $4–8) on the fixed fares, taking 10–20 minutes; the public airport shuttle bus costs even less. No ferry or speedboat is needed — the islands are connected to the airport by road.
