Ayada Maldives

★★★★★

Ayada Maldives, a recipient of numerous prestigious awards, stands as a secluded island retreat nestled within the lesser-explored Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll in the southern expanse of the Maldives. This exquisite resort boasts 122 expansive villas and suites enveloped by vibrant tropical gardens and verdant landscapes, all encircled by an unspoiled coral reef where playful dolphins are frequent guests. Every villa enjoys butler service, and with 5 restaurants, 3 bars and meal plans ranging from half board to Premium All Inclusive, you can tailor your stay exactly as you like it. Days can be spent snorkelling and diving the reef, riding some of the best surf breaks in the Maldives, jogging the island's tracks or simply unwinding at the spa, with a kids club on hand for families.

Highlights

  • A luxurious retreat in the unspoiled Gaafu Atoll
  • Blessed with some of the best surf breaks in the Maldives – 8 are within easy distance, 2 for beginners and 6 for pros (surfing must be pre-booked at time of booking)
  • 3 Jogging tracks measuring 900m, 1200m and 1600m around the island
