Wednesday 11th of November 2020

This festive season, luxury resort Vakkaru Maldives has no reason to down the celebrations after being the three-times winner at the 2020 World Travel Awards. Just 3 years since its doors opened in the Baa Atoll, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the private-island retreat has been crowned Indian Ocean’s Leading Resort 2020 and its immense signature four-bedroom overwater villa The Residence has been named both Maldives’ Leading Hotel Suite 2020 and Indian Ocean’s Leading Hotel Suite 2020.

The World Travel Awards has been acknowledging, rewarding and celebrating excellence across all key sectors of the travel, tourism and hospitality industries for the past 27 years. The Awards are recognised internationally as an arbiter of excellence in the luxury travel sector. These latest awards act as evidence of Vakkaru Maldives’ position as one of the country’s most exciting and inviting luxury resorts.

The win comes not long after the launch of Vakkaru’s innovative new hospitality concept Vakkare. A commitment to providing the utmost care in all its forms, this enhanced service standard sees all members of the Vakkaru team make sincere and creative effort to surpass guest expectations.

Explore superlative treatments at overwater Merana spa; elevated fine dining that pays particular attention to nourishing and energising dishes; and some of the Indian Ocean’s best diving and watersports experiences. What better place than this to discover the true beauty of Baa Atoll and the treasures underwater?

The award-winning Residence is perfectly positioned to provide uninterrupted views of the sunset. The four-bedroom, two-storey villa extends to 971 square metres and contains all a family or group of friends could possibly want to enjoy the ultimate Maldives holiday in complete exclusivity.

Bordered by a bubbling whirlpool, the Residence infinity pool seems to meld with the turquoise ocean. Around it, a vast open terrace allows for versatile entertaining and includes a dining area, multiple relaxation areas, a private spa pavilion and a staircase that leads directly to the sea. Inside, sprawling rooms allow for spontaneous get-togethers and extravagant parties alike. For quiet time, bathrooms come with mammoth tubs, private steam rooms and outdoor showers.

Every new arrival will be gifted experiences intended to make their stay as effortless as possible and their interactions with friends and family as special as can be. These range from VIP passage through Malé’s Velana International Airport to a panoply of in-resort and in-villa privileges efficiently and effortlessly facilitated by their always-on-call butler team. Among the many benefits included are complimentary sundowners, yoga sessions and spa treatments to be enjoyed on the privacy of their ocean-facing deck, as well as family film nights with limitless popcorn, a private beach barbecue and more!
