The property
Timeless Baa Atoll polish
Vakkaru is the polished all-rounder of Baa Atoll — a bigger island than most neighbours, planted with thousands of coconut palms, ringed by deep white beach. Merana, the overwater bar at the end of its own jetty, is the sunset spot. The tennis set-up is unusually serious for the Maldives, Hanifaru Bay is in reach for manta season, and the split between family and couples' ends of the island is handled quietly.
Where you sleep
12 villa categories
Beach and overwater villas and suites, many with pools. Which one is right depends on the month and who is travelling — that is the first thing we will ask.

What makes it itself
Why people choose it
- 01
A private beach
The sand in front of the resort is its own, so the walk from your room to the water crosses nobody else.
- 02
Overwater villas
Rooms built out over the lagoon, with the water directly beneath the deck — the reason most people come to these islands.
- 03
A full spa
Treatments on the property — massage, steam room, sauna, so a bad-weather afternoon has somewhere to go.
- 04
Diving and snorkelling
Run from the resort, which matters here: the boat leaves from your own jetty rather than an hour up the coast.
- 05
A children's club
Supervised hours for the children, which is the difference between a holiday and a fortnight of childcare with a view.
