Naladhu Private Island Maldives

From being meet at the airport and our seamless journey to the island this resort is just a Wow Wow Wow ! What a welcome at the dock with traditional Maldivian music, the manager , staff and our fabulous Kuwaanus Evgeniia . Arriving on the this beautiful island feels like the warmest of hugs. Our second visit to the island, a busy year, with our 30th wedding Anniversary and my 60th birthday . The villas(actually Ocean Houses, but more like Home to us) are just stunning and so well set up to take in the stunning views, the bed oh my ! Is like sleeping in a cloud . All the little touches make this resort just a wonderful experience from the welcome sand art and beautiful bed decorations gorgeous canopies and even a glass cleaning cloth and the magical way our house boy slipped in and out unseen . Can’t say enough about our fabulous Kuwaans Evgeniia very lucky to be looked after her for a second time .She is just fabulous and so kind always only a whatsapp message away, to tend to our dinner, spa reservations and questions . All the staff were just amazing and so friendly, so lovely to be greeted so warmly throughout the resort it really feels like family . The Living Room serves fabulous food and the champagne breakfast is just stunning ,definitely one of our favorites . Really hard to leave this amazing resort . Even leaving is a seemless affair with check out in your Villa a very warm wave again from the staff and checked right through to immigration on return to the airport . Can’t recommend this resort enough just stunning and hope your lucky enough to get Evgeniia to take care of you . Thanks again Evgeniia and all the staff . You made our year .

Just returned from a week spent in Naladhu Private Island with my wife which to my surprise was one of the best I have stayed in the Maldives during my visits the last 20 years. Were booked in a Beach House with Pool which was very spacious, airy with a nice pool one step away from the bedroom and the bathroom! Steps further you had the beautiful lagoon crystal clear waters. However after 2 days and a kind acceptance by our extremely efficient & helpful butler Mohamad ( he is Egyptian which was a very nice surprise for us as we live in Alex ) to let us see the Ocean House with Pool . My wife immediately fell for the mesmerizing views of the Indian Ocean and the sounds of the waves all day long so we asked and moved the day after in it. The fact a Cabana on the Beach of the lagoon is offered is a plus since you have the best of both worlds. Ocean views all day and a quite lagoon to swim when you want to, what more can one ask for? The villa is exactly the same with the Beach House with the only difference being the Ocean amazing views. Loved going daily to swim in Gulifushi Island which is 5 min by boat away and has some amazing beaches while being served in Tikki Bar some refreshing cocktails! Spent at least 2 hours swimming daily there as it is so calm and beautful. Had booked on a HB basis and to be honest we never regretted it! Breakfast was a la carte contrary to what we were used to in other Luxury Resorts ( Open Buffet ) but it was every bit as rich while quality and service in the Living Room Restaurant ( the only one available on the island ) were top notch. Anything we felt like having and I mean it that, was available. Special French cheeses / a big selection of omelettes / eggs along with plenty of marmalades / Danish pastries, croissants and of course exotic fruit platters daily ( you also mention which fruits you prefer, the same goes with the fresh fruit juices or champagne ) The particularity of this Resort is it is connected two other Anantara Resorts ( Veli & Dhigu ) which have another 6 restaurants where you can have your lunch or dinner. This left us with a big selection of cuisines of which we took full advantage. Origami which offers Tapanyaki / Sashimi / Sushi was excellent both in food quality and service. Baan Hua the Thai restaurant overlooking both the Lagoon & Ocean was excellent too. Tried also Sea Salt & Fire which again has amazing views while the menu is top quality. However we liked Living Room restaurant in our Island so much that we also ended up ordering from Origami the Chef’s amazing 20 sashimi / sushi Boat selection here while on another night ordered their Tomahawk 1000 gm meat to share which was simply out of this world! The same with the Grilled Seafood Basket to share which we had for 2 nights as we could not have enough of it. All in all this Resort offers beatiful Villas, excellent food wherever you decide to dine or even get you your favorite dishes from any of the 6 others restaurants in Veli & Dhigu to enjoy them in Naladhu. Last but not least I have to give special credit to the Resort Manager Ali Shameen who welcomed us very warmly since we arrived and was daily checking on us making sure we were very satisfied during our stay. A special mention to Mohamad our ever present butler who was just a phone call away during our whole stay. Also to Ouda ( another Egyptian here ) who was so helpful giving us advice with the extensive menus of so many restaurants. On the last night met also Arnab who is the Head Chef in our Island and behind some delicious dishes like Wagyu Carpaccio Salad, scallops grilled and the remarkable Lobster offered in the Seafood Basket. Andrea was such a warm & helpful person at Living Room the same as Elisa & Mostafa ( another one of Egyptian contingency ) in Origami while I forget the name of the lady who served us in Baan Hura who was so sweet and helpful too. Overall this Resort is definitely one the most customer friendly we have been to and we are already thinking of visiting again next year. If you need a calm and beautiful Maldivian Resort with only 20 Villas Overall, beautiful beaches and want to be surrounded by professional staff and enjoy excellent dining options doubt you can find a better one. Definitely recommend it and am sure anyone visiting it will end up getting hooked.

Went to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and from start to finish it was truly the best experience ever! Our personal butler, Sulvaan, went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and private, just the way we wanted. We had booked bed and breakfast, and to our surprise, they offered all-day breakfast, which was such a treat. What touched us the most was the thoughtful surprise dinner Sulvaan arranged for us. We requested to have it at our villa, and the team was so accommodating. They let us choose several dishes from their à la carte dinner menu, making it feel extra special. To make it even more memorable, they had the villa beautifully decorated for our anniversary! The villa itself was breathtaking, spacious, with a huge pool, total privacy, and the most romantic setting we could have asked for. It’s the perfect place for couples, whether celebrating an anniversary, honeymoon, or just wanting time away together. Truly unforgettable, we can’t wait to come back!

We have been to several islands in beautiful Maldives but this property is one of the best and our personal favourite. The Ocean House we stayed in was one of the largest in this price range and was brilliantly designed. The room was immaculately maintained and comes with its own steam room. The covered outdoor areas dining / large swing allowed seating at any time of the day - which was a huge plus. Most resorts have a open outdoor space and cannot be enjoyed when its sunny or rainy. While the price is a bit steep it was well worth the experience. The word Private in the name is taken very seriously and they offer the most exclusive services. The team was very nice and personal Kuwaanu Eva took care of all our needs from start to end. Chef Arnab was very helpful and made us special dinners. One of the biggest advantages is that you get access to facilities in 2 of their other islands - Veli and Dhigu.

My Experience of staying in Naladhu private island Maldives was very nice and One of the best travel experiences I've had.
