International flight to Velana International (Malé), then a twenty-minute domestic flight with Maldivian Airlines to Dharavandhoo. We book the domestic leg. Our reps meet you at the airport and it is about a two-minute buggy ride to Dimora Blu.

A free thirty-day visa is issued on arrival for most nationalities. Your passport needs six months' validity and you'll need proof of onward travel.

Yes — a public ferry and speedboats run from Malé, but the domestic flight is quicker and simpler. We'd recommend flying unless you have a specific reason to sail.

Maldives is a Muslim country, and alcohol is not served or sold on local islands including Dharavandhoo. If this matters, we can arrange a day visit to a nearby resort where alcohol is served.

Absolutely. Dharavandhoo is a welcoming island — you are already on it when you stay at Dimora Blu. Walking around in the mornings or evenings is one of the quiet pleasures of staying here.

Yes, great Wi-Fi throughout Dimora Blu — reliable enough for video calls.

Breakfast, half board, and full board — you choose at booking. Meals are served at our rooftop restaurant at Dimora Blu. Dinner is a rotating menu of Maldivian and international dishes with the local catch as the centrepiece.

All catered for. Tell us at the time of booking and the kitchen will plan accordingly.

There are a handful of cafés on Dharavandhoo. Feel free to explore. We'll suggest the better ones.

May through November, with peak feeding events usually between June and October around the full and new moons. Hanifaru Bay is ten minutes by speedboat from Dimora Blu — we time trips accordingly.
