Ellaidhoo Maldives by Cinnamon
About this accommodation
Ellaidhoo Maldives by Cinnamon sits on a small coral island in North Ari Atoll, reached by speedboat from Velana International Airport in around 90 minutes. The resort operates 178 rooms across beach and overwater categories and is positioned alongside one of the better-known house reefs in the atoll, a coral wall and drop-off that supports reef fish, turtles, eagle rays and occasional reef sharks directly from the shoreline. Diving is central to the property: the on-site centre runs up to two morning and two afternoon boat dives daily with access to more than 40 sites around North Ari, including spots known for manta and whale-shark encounters in season. Meal plans range from Bed & Breakfast through to All Inclusive, with dining centred on the Madi buffet restaurant (international cuisine with themed stations) and the Malamathi à la carte restaurant reserved for water-bungalow guests. The Chavana Spa, a dive school and water-sports desk complete the facilities. With a 4.8 rating across more than 2,500 reviews and a mid-range Sri Lankan-operated structure, the resort suits divers, snorkelers, couples and families looking for a reef-focused stay at a more accessible price point than the five-star operators in the same atoll.
