Dreaming of the ultimate in exclusivity and privacy? A boutique hideaway of poetic beauty – white sands, coconut palms, the jewel-toned colours of the Indian Ocean?

Naladhu Private Island Maldives promises extraordinary getaways for the jet-set, with buyouts of the entire island. Your time on the island will be utterly bespoke, luxurious and timeless.

The preferred Maldivian getaway of royalty, celebrities and Fortune 500-ers, Naladhu is the perfect backdrop for a corporate retreat, milestone birthday or destination wedding, says the luxury resort. Guests begin their journey with a cruise to shore by private yacht, day or night; alternatively zooming across the waters with a 35-minute speedboat transfer from Malé International Airport.

The butler will whisk you to one of only 20 houses dotted across the island.

Each house merges seamlessly into the landscape, whether on a secluded stretch of beach or perched over the ocean. The 300 sq m of space includes a 12.5 m infinity pool, dining area and bathing pavilion, with a colonial aesthetic complemented by high-tech and customised amenities. Guests of honour are housed in the Two Bedroom Pool Residence, the epitome of island living, with an oversized pool overlooking the ocean and spa treatment suite.

The stay in the resort can be as tranquil or filled with excitement as you wish, whether multi-day wedding celebrations on the beach, banquets in the midst of a candlelit grove, or live performances at water’s edge complete with fireworks. The resort’s dedicated event planners create extraordinary experiences for every stay, with entertainers and hair and make-up artists ready to fly in from around the world.

Culinary journeys are exquisite, with a team of chefs working around the clock to create perfection. Each meal during the stay is made to order and served up in any location of the guest’s choosing – on the deck of a yacht, by the infinity pool, in-house, or in the 24-hour restaurant -The Living Room. Alternatively, guests can fly in their own chefs and ingredients and the kitchen will be at their command.

Explore the most beautiful of surroundings with bespoke daily itineraries. At Naladhu, the ocean is one’s playground, whether sailing into the horizon, snorkelling with mantas and sharks, diving into kaleidoscopic reefs or surfing the waves. Stop to picnic on sandbank or under the stars. Return to the island for tasting sessions with exquisite beverages and indulgent spa treatments in-house.

Guests can tailor the island to their stay, customising every space with corporate branding, personal mementos or wedding decor. Throughout the stay and the planning process, an expert team of planners are on call and ready to serve.
