Fulidhoo Ihaa Lodge is a guest house on Fulidhoo, an inhabited local island in Vaavu Atoll. It is on Fulidhoo itself, among the island’s own community rather than on a private resort island.
Best for
Fulidhoo Ihaa Lodge suits travellers who would rather stay on a local island than at a resort, spending their days on Fulidhoo’s beaches, on the water and on boat excursions run from the island. The listed airport shuttle also helps arrivals who would rather not arrange their own boat transfer.
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 Runfass, 10010 Fulidhoo, Maldives. Its map coordinates fall on Fulidhoo, which is why we list it under Fulidhoo in our Central Atolls section. It is about 58.2 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport and about 55.9 km from Malé. Distances on this page are straight-line figures, not journey times.
Rooms and style at Fulidhoo Ihaa Lodge
Fulidhoo Ihaa Lodge 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 Fulidhoo Ihaa Lodge
Listed facilities at Fulidhoo Ihaa Lodge include an airport shuttle, free Wi-Fi, non-smoking rooms, a restaurant, family rooms, a beachfront position and breakfast. With a restaurant on site, you are not dependent on cafés elsewhere for every meal. Breakfast is listed as available; whether it is included depends on the rate you choose.
Trade-offs and what to know
On Fulidhoo, 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 Fulidhoo involves a domestic flight, a seaplane or a long boat transfer depending on the route, so confirm the arrangement your booking uses. An airport shuttle is listed; check what it is, when it runs and whether it costs extra. Once there, the island is small enough to explore on foot.

Before you book
Before booking Fulidhoo Ihaa Lodge, 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.
