The bikini beach is a fair way off — around 750 m, about ten minutes each way. Worth knowing if you plan to swim twice a day. It lies towards the south-west edge of the island, 950 m out from the centre — quieter, and further from the shops. It rates 4.8 from 2,648 reviews, which puts it in the upper group on Rasdhoo. We have not stayed here. Rooms, meals and the airport transfer are worth confirming directly before you book.

What to ask before you book
Airport transfer
Ask whether the guesthouse arranges it and what it costs. Arriving without one, at an hour no public ferry runs, is the expensive way to find out.
Distance to the beach
On a local island the bikini beach is a fixed spot, not outside every door. Five minutes and twenty minutes are a different holiday.
Meals and Ramadan
Whether breakfast is included, and — if you travel during Ramadan — whether the kitchen serves guests during the day.
