Vilamendhoo Island Resort

Honest review

Important: Vilamendhoo Island Resort & Spa will be temporarily closed for renovation from May 1 to November 15, 2026.

The renovation project is aimed at upgrading the resort's infrastructure, raising the level of comfort, and creating even more vivid experiences for guests. Once the work is complete, the resort will reappear in refreshed form while keeping its unique atmosphere and high standard of service.

This is definitely a place to send guests with preschool and primary-school-age children — the island seems made for discovering snorkeling and falling in love with this unhurried pastime. The Garden Rooms are favorites with European divers; there is a whale shark watching spot nearby, so they are happy to stay here. The Adjoining Beach Villas are an excellent option for a large family, a group of friends, or a family traveling with a nanny. The main restaurant left a very pleasant impression. The hotel is not new, but here you can see once again that what matters most is not a resort's age but its team. Everything is kept clean and well maintained, the island is very green, and the spa is part of the Duniye Spa group — which is also good news, because this brand's spa rituals are always of the highest level. Incidentally, there is Russian-speaking staff at reception.

A living, green, natural island with a good beach and an excellent house reef — classic Maldives at an accessible price. Beautiful nature, delicious and varied food, romance, peace, and quiet make it a favorite with repeat guests. Even when the hotel is fully booked, there is no sense of crowds — everything fits so harmoniously and neatly into the natural environment.

The resort is located on Vilamendhoo Island, South Ari Atoll, 82 km from Velana International Airport (Male).

- by seaplane (a 25-minute flight). The seaplane lands on a floating platform in the ocean, from where a boat takes guests to the hotel (about 5 minutes).
