Holiday Haven Ukulhas is a guest house on Ukulhas, an inhabited local island in North Ari Atoll. It is on Ukulhas itself, among the island’s own community rather than on a private resort island.
Best for
Holiday Haven Ukulhas suits travellers who would rather stay on a local island than at a resort, spending their days on Ukulhas’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 Akkaleena Miskiy magu, 09030 Ukulhas, Maldives. Its map coordinates fall on Ukulhas, which is why we list it under Ukulhas in our Ari Atoll section. It is about 73.8 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport and about 71.6 km from Malé. Distances on this page are straight-line figures, not journey times.
Rooms and style at Holiday Haven Ukulhas
Holiday Haven Ukulhas 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 Holiday Haven Ukulhas
Listed facilities at Holiday Haven Ukulhas include an airport shuttle, non-smoking rooms, a fitness centre, room service, free Wi-Fi, family rooms and breakfast. Breakfast is listed as available; whether it is included depends on the rate you choose.
Trade-offs and what to know
On Ukulhas, 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
Ukulhas 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. 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 Holiday Haven Ukulhas, 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.
