Fini Palace is a guest house on Maafaru, an inhabited local island in Noonu Atoll. It is on Maafaru itself, among the island’s own community rather than on a private resort island.
Best for
Fini Palace suits travellers who would rather stay on a local island than at a resort, spending their days on Maafaru’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 Maafaru international airport, 04060 Ma Faro, Maldives. Its map coordinates fall on Maafaru within Noonu Atoll, which is why we list it with the Noonu Atoll in our Northern Atolls section. It is about 182.5 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport and about 184.3 km from Malé. Distances on this page are straight-line figures, not journey times.
Rooms and style at Fini Palace
Fini Palace 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. Every room is listed with a tea and coffee maker.
Facilities at Fini Palace
Listed facilities at Fini Palace include family rooms, free Wi-Fi, breakfast, garden view and a terrace. Breakfast is listed as available; whether it is included depends on the rate you choose.
Trade-offs and what to know
On Maafaru, 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
Reaching Maafaru 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 Fini Palace, confirm the room type and outlook, whether breakfast or other meals are included, how and when the airport transfer runs and what it costs, and the cancellation terms. If you arrive late in the day, ask whether a boat can still run after dark.
