Velaa Private Island Maldives

Nestled in the untouched beauty of Noonu Atoll, Velaa Private Island is a rare jewel in the Maldivian crown—where privacy, artistry, and nature converge in perfect harmony. Designed to resemble the graceful form of a sea turtle from above, this ultra-exclusive retreat offers just 47 villas, houses, and residences, each a masterpiece of intimacy and architectural finesse.

Crafted by Czech architect Petr Kolar, Velaa blends contemporary European sophistication with Maldivian soul. From the ivory-white Tavaru Tower housing one of the region’s most extensive wine cellars, to the overwater Romantic Pool Residence accessible only by boat, every detail whispers of curated indulgence.

Velaa is not just a destination—it is a dream made tangible. A place where time slows, senses awaken, and every moment is tailored to your deepest desires.
