About Vakkaru Maldives
Velaa Private Island is an ultra-exclusive boutique hideaway located in the Noonu Atoll, approximately 187 kilometers north of Malé. Named 'Turtle Island' in the local Dhivehi language, it pays homage to the generations of sea turtles that have nested on its shores. The resort features 47 private villas, houses, and residences, each designed with a blend of contemporary luxury and Maldivian nuances. Unique offerings include the Maldives' only covered tennis court, a nine-hole golf course designed by José María Olazábal, and a spa featuring the country's first snow room.
Velaa Private Island caters to discerning travelers seeking privacy and luxury, including couples, families, and groups. The resort offers tailored experiences suitable for romantic getaways, family vacations, and special events.
