Getting there
Ellaidhoo Maldives by Cinnamon lies about 68 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport, the country's main gateway near Malé.
Resorts this far from Malé are usually reached by seaplane, or by a domestic flight followed by a boat ride; the resort confirms which applies and the timing, and seaplanes fly in daylight only.
The nearest other stays in this guide are Constance Halaveli (5.0 km), Safari Island Resort (6.6 km) and Sandies Bathala (7.2 km). On resort islands, neighbours are usually separate islands reached only by boat, so distance says little about walking access.
