Hotels Maldives at 10-15 minutes from the airport

In the Maldives, resort hotels are located on private islands scattered hundreds of kilometers from the capital, Male. The country's main international airport, Velana, is also located here. Upon arrival in Male, you'll be transferred to your selected hotel.

It's worth noting that almost every resort in the Maldives is located on its own private island, which ranges in size from a few hundred meters wide and long, to occasionally stretching as long as 800-1000 meters. Therefore, the island offers nothing but the hotel's amenities: villas, restaurants, spas, tennis courts, and other entertainment.
