We have been there four years running, every January, and we are already booked to go again next year. We just love it, and it is faultless!!! Staff, food, service, spa, sports, even the magnificent gardens, all is exceptionally high quality and exceptionally well run!!! It's expensive, but you definitely get what you pay for, i.e. the Very Best!! Even if I wanted to be picky and difficult (.... which I normally can be), Velaa is just faultless! Thank you to all the management and staff, for giving us some very special memories over the years!

Velaa Private Island is not just a resort — it’s an experience reserved for those who seek the absolute best. Discreet, refined, and incredibly intimate, this island delivers on every level imaginable. From the moment you arrive, you’re immersed in seamless, understated luxury — no fanfare, just flawless attention to detail. The villas are spacious, elegant, and incredibly private, each one designed with true comfort and aesthetics in mind. Service is where Velaa truly excels — quiet, personalized, and deeply intuitive. The team knows what you need before you ask. Every request, no matter how small, was met with genuine care. The culinary program is world-class. From overwater fine dining to beachfront casual bites, every meal was exquisite. The wine cellar is one of the most impressive in the region — a true paradise for wine lovers. The spa and wellness center are tranquil and thoughtfully curated, while the golf academy and water sports center offer activities for those seeking more adventure. Velaa is a place for those who want to truly disconnect, unwind, and enjoy the luxury of not being seen. It’s quiet glamour at its finest — an island that speaks to the few, not the many. If you’re looking for the most exclusive address in the Maldives — this is it.

We were in Vella in February, the weather was beautiful, every day we had a cocktail on the beach under a palm tree right at noon and looked at this magnetic ocean. The hotel is a beautiful maintained jungle, the sand is white and fine, the restaurants were unique, the service was impeccable, and the children's club amused our child so much that we only saw him in the evening. In the evening at the restaurant, on the beach, there was a spectacular program, with beautiful decoration and incredible cuisine... For a long time after we got home, my thoughts drifted to Velaa, I think a part of me stayed there waiting for me…

Congratulations to the staff, management and owners as Velaa continues to make one feel relaxed, pampered, lucky and grateful for being there. This was our fourth visit in four years and the staff tend to be familiar as well as excellent at showing one what is available to do. The staff all say that the owner looks after them so well, which in turn means they look after their guests with a sense of generous pride. Every building and facility on the island is beautifully built and maintained down to details that show the entire place is intended to be a wonderful experience rather than just a commercial operation. Thank you to everyone at Velaa, we had a marvellous holiday, again.

Magical 2 week break. Beach bungalows were beautiful. Amazing value for money. Food was a buffet not brilliant for vegans but overall very good. Staff were lovely. Always so eager to make our holiday perfect. Shame beach bar had no beach but an amazing holiday all round .

Our stay at Velaa Private Island was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with the highest level of care and attention. Hana greeted us at the airport, escorting us to the private lounge and offering us hot beverages while our seaplane was being prepared—a thoughtful and welcoming touch. Upon arrival at the island, Azil was there to meet us at the jetty with a warm welcome. Our butler then took us to our room, giving us a tour and ensuring we were comfortable. The room was stunning, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment spent there. Special thanks to Mode, who went above and beyond to assist us and show us around the island, making sure we had the best possible experience. We also appreciated the kindness and helpfulness of the girl at the restaurant (whose name I unfortunately can’t recall) – her service was outstanding. Overall, our experience at Velaa Private Island was unforgettable. The attention to detail, impeccable service, and beautiful surroundings made for an excellent stay, and we can’t wait to return. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience! The Ocean Villa was exceptional, service and private butler fast and effective! Ali thank you! Amenities of the best quality… We tried most of the activities and we had tones of options! Scuba diving and sea-bob snorkeling gave us the best of memories! What a colorful world under the sea… Only the weather let us down… two days of raining but still in this hotel we had plenty of stuff to keep us pleasantly busy… The treatments in the spa and wellness center GREAT! Promise to return in the near future

We went to Velaa and got an unpleasant first impression from one of the staffs saying "try to get more tips from her". It was truly a very sad thing to see.
