Rated Travellers' Choice on TripAdvisor

Great and small island

Small and amazing island, so if you prefer activities I don't recommend here, but if you like private space and a quiet atmosphere, I definitely recommend going here.

Unforgettable stay at Milaidhoo with amazing service from Abdulla

We had an incredible stay at Milaidhoo Maldives. The island is breathtaking, villas are spacious and private, and all the dining experiences were fantastic. Special thanks to our host Abdulla. He was incredibly friendly, thoughtful and proactive. He anticipated our needs, offered great local tips and took care of every request efficiently. His warm service made our holiday extra memorable. We truly enjoyed every moment and would love to return in the future. Highly recommend!

Paradise on Earth

My spouse and I enjoyed fifteen wonderful, heavenly days at the 5-star Milaidhoo resort. This trip is the trip of a lifetime, an exceptional place protected by UNESCO, where colorful fish, adorable turtles, and lush flora coexist. Our overwater villa was a haven of peace, aesthetics, and unparalleled elegance. We enjoyed having breakfast every morning at Ocean, facing the turquoise sea. We were supported and guided throughout by Abdulla, a man of certain kindness and professionalism. Thanks to him for his recommendations, his advice, and his daily kindness. A stay punctuated by delicate attentions and surprises. Congratulations also to all the staff: maintenance workers, servers, massage therapists, cooks. We will return to paradise on Earth.

The Great Trip

It was a great experience. I think it's the most competitive island within the same price range. They offered many honeymoon benefits, especially our butler John was very enthusiastic and added a lot of excitement to our honeymoon trip. The lagoon is very beautiful and there are abundant snorkeling resources. We saw nurse sharks, turtles, and Nemo. If I come to Maldives again, I think I will still choose this island.

Let us tell you a story…

We don't think of our guests as just holidaymakers. We think of you as storywriters, crafting your dream holiday. This is where your story of a small island begins…

Your chapter of barefoot island living begins…

Opened in November 2016, Milaidhoo is a boutique luxury resort set in the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, close to Hanifaru Bay — 126 km north-west of Malé. A haven for nature lovers, the island's own coral reef is a protected area celebrated as an outstanding snorkelling and diving destination.

The Villas

18 Beach Pool Villas — 290 SQM

Set directly on the white, powder-soft sand beach amongst lush tropical palm trees and greenery, these huge thatched-roof villas all have ocean views and open up 180 degrees. Inside the villa is a king bed with views of the beach and ocean. The contemporary interior design includes many local touches giving a sense of being truly in the Maldives. The sundeck has a 36 square metre private freshwater infinity pool while the luxurious air-conditioned bathroom offers an indoor rain shower, a separate deep bathtub as well as an outdoor open-air garden shower.

Occupancy: Two adults and one child or three adults

29 Water Pool Villas — 245 SQM

On stilts over the ocean, these spacious thatched-roof villas are serene and full of light, opening up to a huge sundeck with steps into the ocean for easy access to the nearby coral reef. At 42 square metres, the private pool is one of the largest in the Maldives. Inside the villa is a king bed facing the ocean and a separate dressing area. The interior design is inspired by Maldivian heritage and culture, with furnishings custom-made for Milaidhoo. The huge bathroom has a separate deep bathtub with an ocean view and tropical rainshower with a glass wall offering views of the sea below.

Occupancy: Two adults and one child or three adults

Secrets of a Small Island

The Serenity Spa

Blissful relaxation for body and soul takes place in our over-water spa where the four treatment suites offer inspiring views of ocean and sky. Our holistic treatment menu incorporates the healing powers of plants combined with entrancing healing traditions from Africa, using local herbs and plants. Emphasis is placed on organic and natural spa therapies using products by Elemis, TheraNaka and Coola.

Yoga & Meditation

Find peace of mind with our daily complimentary yoga or meditation sessions in our open-air over-water pavilion at the spa. Our resident yogi holds private and group classes. For an inspirational moment, why not book a class on a deserted sandbank at sunset?

Library & Games Rooms

Settle into one of our comfortable armchairs and while away a pleasant few hours over a good book, a playful board game or a round of pool (billiards). It's all here for you.

Gym

Work up a sweat in our 24-hour gym where you'll find all you need for a good workout.

Ocean Stories

At the Ocean Stories Aquatic Centre, our experienced team are here to enhance your underwater experiences.

Diving

While the beauty of the Maldives is breath-taking, what you'll find below the surface is even more moving. Our experienced diving team have the keys to the best dive sites in the atoll and welcomes everyone, from novices on their first dive to experts logging their 1000th dive. All our dive spots are top class pristine reefs with fascinating scenery. Here we offer everything from night dives, fluo dives, nitrox diving, adventure courses, thila diving, dive spots with overhangs or sites with rays, tuna, napoleon wrasse, sharks and turtles — it's all here.

Marine Biologist

With the UNESCO biosphere reserve on our doorstep, this is a great opportunity for you to learn more about the incredible wildlife in the area from our resident marine biologist. Here you may discover what makes whale sharks tick, why manta rays dance, what makes dolphins smile and help with identification and conservation practices.

Hanifaru Bay

The jewel of the UNESCO biosphere reserve is undoubtedly Hanifaru Bay, the place where — in season — the world's largest groupings of manta rays can be seen. This is also the place for whale shark spotting. Snorkelling with these peaceful ocean giants is an unmissable experience. The season runs from June to November each year and sightings depend on many factors such as tide times, moon phases and currents. We plan to run three trips a week to Hanifaru Bay (weather permitting) and can also offer private excursions for just the two of you accompanied by our marine biologist.

Water Sports

From kayaks and zayaks to stand-up-paddle boards, windsurfing and catamarans, here is where your fun begins. For something completely different, make time for a trip over the reef in our transparent canoe and see what's really swimming beneath your feet.
