Velaa Private Island is one of the most exclusive and expensive resorts globally, a true ultra-luxury haven located in the Noonu Atoll. Its name, meaning 'Turtle Island' in the local language, is reflected in the island's aerial design, with the overwater villas forming a turtle's head. It offers unparalleled privacy and hyper-personalized service.
The 47 villas, houses, and residences were meticulously designed, incorporating elements inspired by sea turtles. The ultimate in exclusivity is achieved by the Romantic Pool Residence, accessible only by boat, which offers private chef and butler services. Many accommodations include private spa areas and outdoor hot tubs.
The gastronomic offering is led by renowned international chefs across three luxury restaurants, including Aragu, for fine modern cuisine, and Tavaru, a Teppanyaki-style tower that also houses one of the most prestigious and rare wine cellars in the Indian Ocean. The culinary experience is a global benchmark.
Velaa stands out for its exceptional recreational facilities. It boasts a cutting-edge golf academy with a virtual reality simulator and a practice range designed by José María Olazábal. The island also offers state-of-the-art water sports, covered tennis courts, and high-level diving equipment.
The My Blend by Clarins Spa is a renowned wellness sanctuary, the only one to host a snow room in the Maldives, used for contrast therapy. The spa offers bespoke luxury treatments and a holistic approach to rejuvenation, ensuring a relaxation experience that goes beyond the conventional.
