Once upon a time, there was a tiny tropical island, an emerald drop of paradise wrapped in soft white sands, surrounded by a vibrant coral reef, lapped by warm turquoise waters, and hidden in the heart of a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Milaidhoo is that island.
Not just another five-star resort in the Maldives, Milaidhoo does things differently: it’s called re-invented luxury. Guests aren’t just holidaymakers but storytellers, crafting a dream holiday.
Opened in November 2016, Milaidhoo is a five-star boutique private island resort located in Baa Atoll in the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, close to the world-famous Hanifaru Bay, 126 km northwest of the capital island, Male’.
Perfect for nature lovers, the coral reef encircling the island is a protected area and is noted as an outstanding snorkeling and diving site. This tiny, beautiful island, abundant with tropical greenery, measures just 300m by 180m (5.4 hectares) and is fringed by a soft, deep white sand beach.
A short 35-minute seaplane ride from Velana International Airport brings guests to this haven. Alternatively, guests can catch a 15-minute domestic flight to Dharavandhoo Airport followed by a 15-minute speedboat ride to Milaidhoo. Designed for couples seeking peace and privacy, guests aged nine and above are welcome.
Everything at Milaidhoo has been custom-made for comfort; crafted around guest needs. Service is tip-top but always friendly, in line with the ‘barefoot informality’ ethos. Above all, Milaidhoo offers a taste of the true Maldives, opening doors to Maldivian culture and unique experiences.
