Dhigurah Beach Inn is a guest house on Dhigurah, an inhabited local island in South Ari Atoll. It is on Dhigurah itself, among the island’s own community rather than on a private resort island.
Best for
Dhigurah Beach Inn suits travellers who would rather stay on a local island than at a resort, spending their days on Dhigurah’s beaches, on the water and on boat excursions run from the island.
It suits less well anyone who wants a bar or a drink with dinner, because alcohol is available only on resort islands, or anyone who wants the privacy and service of a resort.
Location
The listed address is Beach Road, Dhigurah, Maldives Beach road, Dhigurah, Maldives, 00070 Dhigurah, Maldives.

It is about 99.0 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport and about 96.2 km from Malé. Distances on this page are straight-line figures, not journey times.
Rooms and style at Dhigurah Beach Inn
Dhigurah Beach Inn is a guest house. On a local island, expect a smaller and simpler set-up than at a resort. Compare the room categories for bed set-up, bathroom, air conditioning and outlook before you choose.
Facilities at Dhigurah Beach Inn
Listed facilities at Dhigurah Beach Inn include a spa and wellness centre, non-smoking rooms, room service, free Wi-Fi, family rooms, a beachfront position and a private beach area. A private beach area is listed, which matters on a local island where swimwear rules differ between beaches, so confirm where it is and how guests use it.
Trade-offs and what to know
On Dhigurah, local-island rules apply: shoulders and knees should be covered in the village and at any beach that is not a designated tourist beach. Friday is the weekly day of rest, when shops close for prayers and public ferry services are reduced. Boat transfers depend on sea conditions, so leave some slack before an international flight.
Getting there and getting around
Dhigurah is further from Malé than the Malé-atoll islands. Shared speedboats from Malé are the usual route, while public ferries are slower and less frequent. Once there, the island is small enough to explore on foot.
