Barefoot island living in the Maldives

7 nights from £2,185 per person based on 2 sharing

Surrounded by a thriving house reef and crystal-clear waters, Ellaidhoo Maldives by Cinnamon offers a more authentic and nature-focused Maldivian escape. Reached by speedboat from Malé, the island feels intimate and relaxed, with soft sandy beaches, swaying palms, and some of the best snorkelling in the Maldives right on your doorstep. It's the perfect choice for guests who want to spend more time in the water than by the pool, while still enjoying the comfort of an all-inclusive stay.
  • The island's house reef is what makes Ellaidhoo so special. Just metres from the shore, you'll find one of the Maldives' most celebrated snorkelling spots, where colourful coral gardens, reef fish, turtles, and rays can often be seen without needing to join an excursion. 

  • Dining at Ellaidhoo goes far beyond a standard all-inclusive experience. Madi Restaurant serves a mix of international and local flavours throughout the day, while the oceanfront Malamathi Restaurant & Bar offers a more intimate setting overlooking the reef. As evening arrives, many guests gravitate towards Iruohsnee Bar for sunset drinks, making the most of uninterrupted views across the Indian Ocean before dinner. 

  • When you're not exploring the reef, there are plenty of other ways to experience the island. Treat yourself to a spa treatment overlooking the ocean, head out on a dolphin-watching excursion, or enjoy a picnic on a secluded sandbank surrounded by nothing but turquoise water. These quieter moments offer a different perspective on the Maldives and make a wonderful complement to the island's exceptional marine life.
