Milaidhoo Maldives: An Authentic Luxury Retreat in the Baa Atoll
A Maldivian Sanctuary: The Ultimate Escape at Milaidhoo Maldives
Tucked away in the heart of the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of Baa Atoll, Milaidhoo Maldives offers an intimate and exclusive experience for travelers seeking barefoot luxury in a pristine natural setting. Designed for couples and discerning travelers who appreciate personalized service and authentic Maldivian charm, this boutique island is where simplicity meets elegance, and nature takes center stage.

A Private Island Retreat
Unlike larger resorts in the Maldives, Milaidhoo is intentionally small, spanning just 5.4 hectares, ensuring a feeling of seclusion and exclusivity. With only 50 villas, each thoughtfully designed to blend with the surroundings, the island feels like a private paradise where you are invited to unwind, reconnect, and immerse yourself in barefoot luxury.

Each villa—whether on the beach or overwater—features:
A private infinity pool overlooking the ocean
Open-air Maldivian-style architecture with thatched roofs and wooden interiors
A spacious sundeck with daybeds and outdoor showers
Direct access to either the beach or the lagoon, ensuring privacy and tranquility

Unparalleled Marine Experiences
Being located in the UNESCO-protected Baa Atoll, Milaidhoo offers some of the best snorkeling and diving in the Maldives. The island is surrounded by a rich house reef, perfect for spotting colorful coral, turtles, and reef sharks just steps from your villa.

Hanenifaru Bay Excursions – From June to November, experience the extraordinary manta ray migration, where hundreds of mantas gather in a mesmerizing underwater ballet.
