Lhohi White Sand is a guest house on Manadhoo, an inhabited local island in Noonu Atoll. It is on Manadhoo itself, among the island’s own community rather than on a private resort island.
Best for
Lhohi White Sand suits travellers who would rather stay on a local island than at a resort, spending their days on Manadhoo’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 Rehendheemagu, 04070 Manadhoo, Maldives. Its map coordinates fall on Manadhoo within Noonu Atoll, which is why we list it with the Noonu Atoll in our Northern Atolls section. It is about 181.5 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport and about 183.1 km from Malé. Distances on this page are straight-line figures, not journey times.
Rooms and style at Lhohi White Sand
Lhohi White Sand 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 Lhohi White Sand
Listed facilities at Lhohi White Sand include non-smoking rooms, a restaurant, room service, free Wi-Fi, family rooms, a private beach area and breakfast. Between the restaurant and room service, meals can be handled on site. Breakfast is listed as available; whether it is included depends on the rate you choose. 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 Manadhoo, 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 Manadhoo 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
