Adaaran Club Rannalhi with All-Inclusive
A full-board island stay, 45 minutes from Malé by speedboat
An island resort on Rannalhi Island
Adaaran Club Rannalhi sits on its own island in the South Malé Atoll, about 37 km from Velana International Airport and reached by a 45-minute speedboat ride. The all-inclusive package covers dining at two restaurants, drinks at two bars, and a range of watersports — making it a self-contained stay without constant additional spend. The resort holds a 4.7/5 Google rating across more than 4,200 reviews. There are no overwater villas here: every room is beach-facing or ocean-facing, all at 38 m². The on-site Water Sports and Dive Centre runs scuba diving, snorkelling on the house reef, windsurfing, and paddleboarding.
Is this stay right for you?
A compact, well-reviewed all-inclusive on a private island, with genuine on-site diving, a spa, and consistent access to the beach and house reef — but no overwater accommodation.
Best for
- Couples wanting a contained all-inclusive package
- Divers and watersports enthusiasts
- Travellers preferring speedboat access over seaplane logistics
- Weddings and honeymoons (wedding pavilions on site)
Less suited to
- Travellers seeking overwater or water villa accommodation
- Those wanting à la carte fine dining as the primary restaurant option
Beach and ocean setting
The resort is beachfront, with a private beach area and garden grounds. All 96 rooms face either the beach or the ocean — no interior or garden-only categories. The house reef is accessible for snorkelling directly from the island.
On-site Water Sports and Dive Centre
The Water Sports and Dive Centre runs scuba diving, snorkelling, windsurfing, paddleboarding, and kayaking from the resort itself. Note that excursions and activities arranged through the centre are excluded from the all-inclusive 10% excursion discount.
Restaurants and bars
The Main Restaurant serves buffet meals with international and Indian cuisine, with ocean views. The Water Front Cafe handles all-day à la carte dining. The Nika Bar covers daytime and evening snacks and drinks, and there is a separate Cocktail Bar.
Spa treatments
The on-site spa does aromatic treatments, Chinese reflexology, hot stone massage, and facials. Direct bookings include a USD 50 per-person spa credit, which effectively offsets the cost of one shorter treatment.
Room design and layout
Classic Ocean View and Classic Beach View rooms are each 38 m² with an extra-large double bed, a balcony, minibar, flat-screen TV, and ensuite bathroom. King or twin configurations are available across all 96 units.
Wedding and sunset experiences
Two wedding pavilions — White and Gold — are available for ceremonies. Stays of three nights or longer include a complimentary one-hour sunset photo cruise, which is a concrete perk rather than a typical resort add-on.

How to get there
Adaaran Club Rannalhi is approximately 37 km from Velana International Airport in Malé. The transfer is by speedboat, taking around 45 minutes. Unlike seaplane-access resorts, arrivals here are not restricted to daylight hours in the same way, which can simplify late-arriving flight connections.
Seaplane transfers typically run $250–600 per person round trip, booked through the property. A few islands in this band are also served by a domestic flight to a nearby regional airport plus a short boat — ask the property which routing is faster for your dates.
