Getting there
Raffles Maldives Meradhoo lies about 404 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport, the country's main gateway near Malé. The nearest domestic airport is Kaadedhdhoo, roughly 15 km away, which matters if your transfer combines a domestic flight with a boat ride.
Huvadhu Atoll (Gaafu) is far enough from Malé that the usual route is a domestic flight followed by a boat or road transfer; confirm the connection with the property before booking international flights.
The nearest other stays in this guide are NH Collection Maldives Havodda Resort (5.0 km), Sunset Stay Maldives (12 km) and Robinson Maldives Adults Only (12 km). On resort islands, neighbours are usually separate islands reached only by boat, so distance says little about walking access.

Raffles Maldives Meradhoo averages 4.7 out of 5 across 191 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
Raffles Maldives is pure luxury from start to finish. The overwater villas are incredibly spacious, beautifully designed, and offer the kind of privacy that’s hard to find even in the Maldives. Waking up to endless turquoise views felt like a dream. One of the highlights of our stay was the guided house reef snorkel with their in-house marine biologist — an amazing experience that brought us up close with vibrant coral and even a reef shark. Highly recommend booking it! If you’re looking for peace, space, and top-tier service in a breathtaking setting, Raffles is worth every moment.
The resort is absolutely beautiful, designed to Raffles’ high standards. However, poor management and inexperienced staff can impact what should be a relaxing vacation. Sadly, you won’t get the true Raffles experience here—at least, that was our experience despite being Diamond Accor members. You’ll find significantly better value at many other luxury resorts in the Maldives.
