Ayada Maldives is a resort on Magudhuva Island, a resort island in Huvadhu Atoll. Like most Maldives resort islands, Magudhuva Island is given over to a single resort, so your room, the restaurants and the beach are all on the same island.
Best for
Ayada Maldives suits travellers who want a self-contained island holiday, with the beach, meals and activities a short walk from the room, and who are happy to stay put once they arrive. The listed spa adds an option for slower days.
It suits less well travellers on a tight budget or anyone who wants to see everyday island life, because meals, drinks and excursions are bought from the resort, and leaving Magudhuva Island means a boat trip.
Location
The listed address is Magudhuva Island, Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll, Republic of Maldives, 20050 Vaadhoo, Maldives. Its map coordinates fall on Magudhuva Island within Huvadhu Atoll, which is why we list it with the Huvadhu Atoll in our Southern Atolls section. It is about 435.8 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport and about 433.8 km from Malé. Distances on this page are straight-line figures, not journey times.

Trade-offs and what to know
Everything on Magudhuva Island is priced by the resort, so the meal plan and drinks make a large difference to the final cost. Transfers are part of the decision too: confirm how Ayada Maldives brings guests from the airport, how long it takes and whether it is included. Once you are on the island, outside excursions depend on the resort’s boat schedule.
Getting there and getting around
Reaching Magudhuva Island involves a domestic flight, a seaplane or a long boat transfer depending on the route, so confirm the arrangement your booking uses.

Before you book
Before booking Ayada Maldives, check which room category you are buying, the meal plan (bed and breakfast, half board, full board or all-inclusive), the transfer type, timing and price from the airport, and the cancellation terms. If you land late, ask whether the transfer can run on arrival or whether a night near the airport is needed first.
