Yellow Rehendhi Inn at Maafushi is a hotel on Maafushi, an inhabited local island in South Malé Atoll. It is on Maafushi itself, among the island’s own community rather than on a private resort island.
Best for
Yellow Rehendhi Inn at Maafushi suits travellers who would rather stay on a local island than at a resort, spending their days on Maafushi’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.

Trade-offs and what to know
On Maafushi, 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
Maafushi is reached from Malé or the airport by speedboat, or more slowly and cheaply by public ferry from Malé on scheduled days. Once there, the island is small enough to explore on foot.
