The editorial take
Why Ellaidhoo Maldives by Cinnamon
Ellaidhoo, run by Cinnamon, is one of those resorts that seems modest from the front desk and reveals itself in the water. The house reef is one of the best in North Ari — a wall on the eastern side, a manta cleaning station 15 minutes by boat, and a serious dive school that runs four boats a day. 110 villas, all-inclusive packages that include daily diving for divers, beach and overwater categories. Best for divers on a 7+ night package. Skip it for spa-resort feel.
