The Maldavian word for "beautiful island," Naladhu is the perfect description for this serene island retreat. Staff are trained to be discreet and accommodate your every need, whilst luxury amenities and services are completely indulgent. Located on the island of Velighandu Huraa in the South Male Atoll, the resort is situated in the most breathtaking and romantic setting you could imagine.

The facilities

The resort offers everything from snorkelling and to in-room spa treatments. In addition to the indoor fitness centre and team of personal trainers, Naladhu goes beyond typical fitness facilities by offering water aerobics, Pilates and sunrise yoga. For any amenities the resort does not already offer, each house includes a private "house manager" to provide for guests' every whim throughout their stay.

The rooms

Each of Naladhu's 19 beach houses is completely stocked for supreme luxury and comfort. Each comes complete with their exotic open-air baths and outdoor waterfall showers. Plush furnishings and an open design allow feels at one with the island surroundings; step from the bedroom, to the beach, to the sea. Private decks and plunge pools with beach and ocean views offer the perfect setting for a night of romance or quiet reflection.
