Naladhu Private Island Maldives

A fantastic location if you are searching total relaxation and total calm. Lovely small island but still with access to the other Anantara restaurants at Dhigu and Veli. All day breakfast concept in The Living Room means no rushed starts. On this short holiday we ate in The Living Room and Baan Huraa both of which lived up to expectations. New chef in Living Room is a winner. Service is fantastic throughout but special mention to Ali Shameen (a great new addition as resort manager), Evgeniia (just generally fantastic and makes sure our stay is perfect), Andrea (really nice to connect with her, particularly as we share some Dubai roots) , Fadia in Baan Huraa (such a lovely person and was great to see her again), and Faya (always good service in The Living Room). Great to see Ali Visam as well at the water sports - first met him 10 years ago and great that he is still there. Even a rainy day is a great day when you stay here. Loved every moment….and will definitely be back !!!

Beautiful island and very privacy. Only around 20 families. Great food and great service, Ev did a great job and we enjoy our stay there, would be back again.

Our trip to Naladhu Private Island was so good—total perfection! First off, the lagoon here is seriously one of the best in the Maldives; the sea’s so clear and blue, it feels like a postcard come to life. The real star was our butler Evgeniia! She was so on top of things: quick to help with whatever we needed, and always had little thoughtful touches that made a big difference. The rest of the staff were lovely too—super friendly and made us feel right at home. We had the best time here！

Perfect place, perfect staff. The most beautiful villa with all you could want in facilities. Plus this private Island had its own restaurant and bar. Breakfast all day if you want it and a personal chef to cook for you (no menu) he would cook whatever you wanted and came to discuss with us exactly what we would like. One evening my husband Ken had Chicken Jalfarezi and I had Fettuccine Alfredo with lobster added. Perfect!! We had a wonderful Butler, EVGENIIA KUWAANU. She looked after us in every possible way. Booking restaurants for us, trips and excursions, spa appointments She met us on the quey when we were boating and with a golf buggy so we did not have to walk too far. We are 75 and 77 yrs so she looked after us perfectly. As well as the usual Champagne and fruit in our villa she decorated our bed and bath with flowers. Provide a huge bouquet of orchids and sent us a personalised cake. She was wonderful. We have stayed in some luxurious places before but this private island and all that it encompassed was something realy special. Thank you to everyone we came into contact with. Wonderful!!!

Our stay at Naladhu Private Island was flawless from start to finish. The villa was stunning, private, and beautifully maintained, with direct beach access and a serene pool. Service was outstanding—our House Master was attentive without being intrusive. Dining was exceptional, with fresh, personalized meals. If you're looking for true luxury, privacy, and relaxation in the Maldives, Naladhu is simply perfect

You no longer have to die to experience heaven. Just go to Naladhu. From the first coconut welcome to the last barefoot breakfast, everything felt effortlessly perfect. Mohamed, our island guardian, has mastered the rare talent of appearing exactly when you need him and disappearing the moment you think “ah, peace.” That’s not service, that’s intuition on a tropical level. In The Living Room, where we spent every day surrendering to fine dining perfection, Chef Achraf leads with quiet brilliance. Jose’s ceviche is pure art, probably the best on earth, and Arnab’s steaks could make any carnivore believe in miracles. Evenings came alive with Andrea’s warmth and radiant smile, her graceful calm turning dinner into something unforgettable. To Fareeh, Hatim, Faya, Dilshan and Ibba, thank you for your kindness, laughter and genuine care. You made every meal feel like coming home, only better. The sunrises from our villa were the most beautiful we’ve ever seen, as if the Ocean Spirit itself was breathing light into the day. We fell asleep each night to the sound of the waves, the ocean’s steady breath beside us, and woke up grateful that paradise truly exists. And somewhere between the calm rhythm of the ocean and the quiet perfection of every detail, you can feel Shameem Ali’s gentle leadership — as if he and Kaddaru, the ancient Sea Cow Spirit, work side by side to keep the island’s magic alive. We are leaving sun-kissed, blissfully unhurried and enchanted.
