House reef

Our rating 5/5 Exceptional

The drop-off sits about two metres from the beach at the Meeru Bar, which is as close as this gets anywhere in the Maldives, and guests who have snorkelled widely say exactly that. Blacktips both adult and young, eagle rays, stingrays, green turtles, moray eels and the occasional manta are all reported from the shore, over coral described as healthy. One piece of advice that will save you money: the water villas are the wrong category for snorkelling here, shallow and rocky with dead coral below. Book a beach villa near Meeru instead. The island is large, so expect a walk.

Getting there

Route

Seaplane

Journey
75 min, airport to island
Last arrival that works
13:30

Land at Velana after 13:30 and the last seaplane of the day will have gone, which means a night in Malé before you reach the island.

The return seaplane is shared and is in the price for two. The resort runs two shared flights a day, leaving Malé at about 11:00 and 15:30, and check-in closes an hour before each. Seaplanes fly in daylight only, so a landing after about 13:30 means a night in Malé first. Times can change around international flights, so send us yours and we will check the connection before you book.

About the resort

Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa sits in Haa Alifu, the northernmost atoll in the Maldives, and its house reef drops away barely two metres off the beach by the Meeru Bar. Every price on this page includes the return seaplane from Malé for two.

It is a large island with a choice of beach and water villas, and you can split four nights between the two. That split is also the cheapest way to stay.

What you pay

Every price is for two adults and four nights, with the shared seaplane, every Maldivian tax and the green tax already in. Pick your dates and a villa above. A full four nights in the Deluxe Water Villa adds only a little to the split stays.

The two-bedroom villas are priced here for two adults. Tell us who else is coming and we will price the stay for everyone. On the earliest dates priced here, the beach half of the Sunset Beach Villa split is upgraded to a Beach Residence with Plunge Pool at no extra charge.

What's included, and what isn't

In the price: four nights in the villa you pick and the return shared seaplane for two. Half board gives you breakfast and dinner; full board adds lunch. All inclusive adds wine, spirits, cocktails, beer, soft drinks, juices, tea and coffee from 10:00 to 23:00 at Matheefaru, Meeru Bar, Sunset Pool Café and Samsara.

Also in: one Indian dinner at Samsara on full board and all inclusive, a floating breakfast for two, one excursion (a guided house reef snorkel or a sunset dolphin cruise), a romantic table set up on Meeru beach once, a US$50 spa voucher for each adult, every Maldivian tax and the green tax.

Not in the price: your international flights, travel insurance, Indian TCS, drinks on half board and full board, spa treatments beyond the voucher, and anything not named above.

Who this isn't for

Anyone short of time. The seaplane north is a long one, and on a four-night stay you feel it. If you want to snorkel straight off your deck, the water villas are the wrong choice here: the water beneath them is shallow and rocky. Book a beach villa near the Meeru Bar instead. The island is large, so expect a walk to dinner.

Before you book

Seaplanes fly in daylight only, so a late evening landing in Malé means a night there first. Send us your flight times and we will check the connection before you book.

The festive period is not priced on this page because it carries compulsory gala dinners; ask us and we will price it. Honeymooners and anniversary couples get a fruit basket, a cake and a special turndown, and honeymooners add a 30-minute couples massage. Bring your marriage certificate.

Frequently asked questions

Where is Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa?

Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa is in Haa Alifu, the northernmost atoll in the Maldives. The return shared seaplane from Velana International Airport is in every price on this page.

How do I get to Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa?

By shared seaplane from Velana International Airport, about 75 minutes, and the return flight for two is in every price on this page. The resort runs two shared flights a day, leaving Malé at about 11:00 and 15:30, and check-in closes an hour before departure. Seaplanes fly in daylight only, so land in Malé by 13:30 to make the last flight; a later landing means a night in Malé first. The resort can change the times around international flights, so send us yours and we will check the connection before you book.

Which villas can I book at Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa?

Every price on this page is for four nights in the Deluxe Water Villa with Pool or the Two Bedroom Ocean Villa with Pool, or one of four split stays that move you between the beach and the water. The two-bedroom villas are priced here for two adults. Tell us who else is coming and we will price the stay for everyone.

What do the meal plans cover at Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa?

Half board is breakfast and dinner. Full board adds lunch, taken at Meeru Bar or Sunset Pool Café, and dinner can be at either of those or the Matheefaru buffet. All inclusive adds wine, spirits, cocktails, beer, soft drinks, juices, tea and coffee from 10:00 to 23:00 at Matheefaru, Meeru Bar, Sunset Pool Café and Samsara. Full board and all inclusive include one Indian dinner at Samsara, with half off food there on other nights.

Is the house reef good at Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa?

Yes. The drop-off is about two metres from the beach at the Meeru Bar, and blacktip sharks, eagle rays, turtles and the occasional manta are seen from the shore. The water under the water villas is shallow and rocky, so for snorkelling from your door, book a beach villa near the Meeru Bar.

A floating breakfast for two, one excursion (a guided house reef snorkel or a sunset dolphin cruise), a romantic table set up on Meeru beach once, and a US$50 spa voucher for each adult.
