A Maldives Holiday On Lhaviyani Atoll
from: ...The Lhaviyani atoll is 140 Kms North from Male airport east of the Raa Atoll and North east of the Baa Atoll and it is best known for its many exotic dive sites. It is as far north as you can go in the Maldives for your Maldives Holiday.
This atoll is different from others in that all the islands of the Lhaviyani Atoll are located on the outer rim of the shell, and the islands are large compared to other islands with dense vegetation. There are only five inhabited islands in the atoll
The One and Only Kanuhura is a 5 star deluxe hotel with 100 rooms which is 150 Kms from the airport on Male, and will take 40 minutes to transfer by sea plane. It is on the eastern rim of the Lhaviyani Atoll and is a member of the Leading Small Hotels of the world Komandoo Island Resort is a 4 star hotel with 45 rooms, and is situated 128 Kms from the airport, and there is a 45 minute transfer by sea plane.

You can certainly find a Maldives Holiday to suit your purse on the Lhaviyani Atoll, whether it is a luxury holiday in the Maldives staying at Kanuhura or at one of the 4 star resorts. Remember the distances involved, which does give you a Maldives island hideaway, but you do have quite a long seaplane transfer.
