Milaidhoo Maldives

A Maldivian private escape with unique dining
VERIFIED LUXURY

Arriving at Milaidhoo Maldives feels like entering a dream. A scenic 35-minute seaplane ride from Malé lands you in the heart of the Baa Atoll, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, where turquoise waters and a lush private island await. Known for its intimate atmosphere, this boutique resort is steeped in Maldivian heritage and designed with a barefoot luxury ethos — no dress codes, just elegant simplicity.

The 50 villas are masterpieces of tropical design, each with private infinity pools, thatched roofs and open-plan layouts that blend indoor and outdoor living. Overwater villas offer direct lagoon access, while beach villas are surrounded by soft sands and swaying palms. Each villa gets a butler, who will attend to any of your needs.

Dining is exceptional, with Ba’theli, a restaurant made from traditional Maldivian boats, serving elevated island-inspired cuisine. At the spa, retreat to overwater treatment rooms for holistic therapies inspired by local traditions. Days are spent snorkeling vibrant reefs, while nights are filled with stargazing from the open-air observatory.
