How to reach The Grand View
The Grand View sits in Malé, 2 km from Velana International Airport. A speedboat transfer connects the two, available at extra charge. The surrounding area scores 4.8 out of 5 for airport access. A local shuttle is also listed as an available service for getting around the city.
An airport taxi is inexpensive — typically MVR 60–100 (about $4–8) on the fixed fares, taking 10–20 minutes; the public airport shuttle bus costs even less. No ferry or speedboat is needed — the islands are connected to the airport by road.
