Paradise on Earth

Spread over 58 acres of a tropical haven in Baa Atoll, Amilla Maldives Resort and Residences promises the perfect summer holiday.

A35MINUTE SEAPLANE ride from Malé, Amilla Maldives Resort and Residences is all about laid-back luxuries. Featuring a mix of stylish villas and expansive residences, each with a private pool, the property lends itself to romantic couple holidays as well as family getaways.

While the villas are no smaller than 220 square metres, the residences are vast sanctuaries located on an exclusive territory on the island. The most spacious of them all, The Amilla Estate, is spread across 2,550 square metres and comes with a rooftop bar, a cinema room, a private spa, and more. It’s ideal for up to 14 guests. Another luxury of the destination is its ample green space; 70 per cent of the island is a tropical jungle, which allows you to immerse yourself in nature. The property also cultivates some of its own fruits, vegetables, and herbs as part of two projects: Homemade@Amilla and Homegrown@Amilla. If you are on a special diet—be it paleo, keto, vegan, or low-lectin—the resort’s Wellness Your Way menus help you personalise your meals.

It’s fair to say that as a Maldivianowned boutique brand, Amilla Maldives Resort and Residences takes pride in its local heritage and always has a surprise in store. amilla.com
