Four guesthouses from this series now sit on Dhiffushi. Infinity Dhiffushi joins Crown Beach Villas, Dhiffushi Island Villa, and Dhiffushi White Sand Beach on the same small North Male Atoll island.
The island's reputation is consistent across all four: a genuinely good beach, reef accessible from shore, and one of the easier local island transfers from Male at 45 minutes by speedboat. None of these facts change depending on which guesthouse key you hold.
