Baa Atoll
A secluded tropical paradise, Vakkaru Maldives is a sanctuary of pristine white-sand beaches, lush jungle, and a thriving house reef. This idyllic private island is home to two mesmerizing “blue holes” and thousands of swaying coconut palms, a nod to its past as a coconut plantation—fittingly, "Vakkaru" means "coconut timber" in the local language.
Located within the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the resort offers an unparalleled marine experience. Swim alongside sea turtles, rays, parrotfish, and nurse sharks on the vibrant house reef, or take a 35-minute boat ride to Hanifaru Bay, one of the world’s most famous manta ray hotspots.
With 113 impeccably designed villas and residences, Vakkaru seamlessly blends rustic charm with contemporary luxury. Whether perched over the water or nestled along the beach, each retreat is crafted from natural materials like stone, wood, and thatch, creating a warm, tropical ambiance. Privacy is paramount neighboring islands are mere specks on the horizon, ensuring uninterrupted ocean views and an unparalleled sense of escape.
