Itinerary
Arrival & Seaplane Transfer to Private Island
Arrive at Velana International Airport (Malé). Meet-&-greet service at the arrival hall followed by an assisted transfer to the seaplane terminal. Enjoy a scenic seaplane flight over turquoise atolls to your private island resort. Check-in, welcome drink, resort orientation, and evening at leisure to watch the sunset from the beach or your villa.
Tip: Seaplane schedules run in daylight — late arrivals may require an overnight in Malé (on request).
Resort Orientation, Relaxation & Private Chef Introduction
Start the day with a leisurely breakfast. Enjoy a guided resort orientation and villa tour. Meet your private chef and discuss a bespoke dinner menu for one of the evenings. Afternoon at your own pace: relax on the white-sand beach, swim in the lagoon, or sip cocktails at the bar.
Included: Welcome drink and resort orientation.
Guided Snorkeling at the House Reef
After breakfast join a guided snorkeling trip to the resort's renowned House Reef — explore vibrant corals, schools of tropical fish, and possibly reef sharks and turtles. A short marine briefing and gear fitting precede the excursion. Return for sunset yoga or an oceanfront stroll.
Tip: The house reef is best explored on calm mornings; photography-friendly conditions.
Sandbank Picnic & Sunset Photography
Board a short boat ride to a pristine sandbank for a private picnic. Swim in shallow turquoise waters, sunbathe, and enjoy a curated picnic basket prepared by the resort. Stay for a spectacular isolated sunset and return to the island for a relaxed evening.
Special: Perfect for romantic photos or proposals.
Dolphin Cruise & Traditional Fishing Experience
Head out on an early morning dolphin cruise to observe playful spinner dolphins in their natural habitat. Later in the day join a traditional Maldivian fishing trip — learn local techniques and try your hand at line fishing. Catch can be prepared by the chef on request.
Note: Dolphin sightings cannot be guaranteed but are commonly observed in these waters.
Active Water Sports & Lagoon Adventures
Spend a full day enjoying water sports: stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and optional motorized activities (jet ski, flyboard available at extra cost). For a calmer option, take a guided glass-bottom boat ride to view marine life.
Included: Non-motorized water sports. Motorized sports are available locally (extra).
Half-Day Excursion to Malé — Culture & Markets
Take a scheduled transfer to Malé for a half-day cultural tour. Visit the historic Hukuru Miskiy (Old Friday Mosque), stroll Sultan Park, explore the Local Fish Market, and browse the colorful shops. Return to the resort for an afternoon spa treatment or leisure time.
Tip: Carry light local-currency cash for small purchases and souvenirs.
Spa Day & Private Chef Exclusive Dinner
Indulge in a signature spa treatment (spa credit included) and relax by the pool. In the evening, enjoy a gourmet private chef experience: a personalized multi-course dinner served at a secluded beachfront location or in-villa, tailored to your preferences.
Highlight: One private chef dinner included. Advance menu preferences required.
Departure — Final Swim & Seaplane Transfer to Malé
Enjoy a final breakfast and a short morning swim or stroll. Check out and transfer by seaplane back to Velana International Airport for your international departure. Resort check-out assistance and luggage handling provided.
