Seaplane
The primary way to reach JOALI Maldives is via seaplane from Velana International Airport (MLE) in Malé. Upon arrival at MLE, a JOALI representative will greet you and escort you to the private JOALI Lounge. From there, you'll board a seaplane for a scenic 40-45 minute flight to Muravandhoo Island. Seaplane transfers are available only during daylight hours (6:00 am to 3:30 pm). A shared return seaplane transfer costs USD 1350 per adult and child. Private seaplane charters are also available for a more exclusive experience, costing USD 8,800 net per way (maximum 8 persons).
Domestic Flight and Speedboat
An alternative to seaplane transfer is a domestic flight to Ifuru Airport (IFU), followed by a 15-minute speedboat ride to JOALI Maldives. Domestic flights from Velana International Airport (MLE) to Ifuru Airport (IFU) take approximately 35 minutes. From Ifuru Airport, a speedboat will transfer you to the resort. Contact JOALI Maldives reservation team at least seven days in advance to arrange transfers. The average price for shared domestic airport transfers ranges from USD 150 to USD 540 per adult. A private speedboat transfer from Ifuru Airport to JOALI Maldives will incur additional costs.
