At a glance
Combining two of the Maldives’ most luxurious and exclusive resorts, this Ultimate Luxury itinerary has been hand-crafted for our most discerning of clients. Every step of the trip has been carefully curated to provide unforgettable experiences from the moment you depart. The sun-soaked nirvanas of Velaa and JOALI are easily reachable by glamorous seaplane, guaranteeing your dream Maldivian vacation gets off to a flying start.
Sumptuous and impeccably designed, Velaa cost around $200 million to bring to life. It’s a popular destination for luxury honeymooners and celebrities alike thanks to the opulence of the resort’s completely private suites and overwater villas. Located just a short, and scenic, seaplane ride away from Velaa’s white-sand shores, JOALI was founded in 2018 by entrepreneur Esin Güral Argat. This new addition to the Maldives’ resort scene takes luxury and style to the next level, not only by adding ever more elaborate underwater restaurants and spa facilities but by providing world-class cuisine and accommodation. One of JOALI’s most exciting features is its underwater coral sculpture garden which is home to some of the world’s rarest aquatic species.
LGBT rights in The Maldives
Despite having problematic laws concerning LGBTQ+ rights, the Maldives is one of Out Of Office’s most popular destinations. Due to the geography of the Maldives, each island is essentially run by the resort that occupies it. We work with an incredible selection of resorts, many of which have LGBTQ+ management, that are welcoming to the LGBTQ+ community.
In detail
Day 1-4: Velaa
Velaa Private Island is a classic Maldivian luxury resort. It’s surrounded by some of the best snorkelling and diving sites in the Maldives. As well as the stunning beaches you expect from the Maldives, Velaa also has a sprawling golf course designed by Jose Maria Olazabal.
Embodying the best of Maldivian understated luxury, the service at Velaa excellent thanks to the army of staff who have been chosen from the Maldives’ finest luxury resorts. All of the private villas come with pools and sprawling terraces, allowing you to make the most of this absolutely unique luxury resort. The food options and the wine lists are among the most tantalising in the Maldives.
Day 5-9: JOALI
Set on the stunning private island of Muravandhoo, JOALI is another premium luxury resort that you can easily access from Velaa. This once-deserted island in the Raa Atoll underwent a huge transformation when this resort was built and is now a world-class destination with unbeatable service. You’ll have your own ‘jadugar’ (Urdu for ‘magician’) to take care of your every need – you’ll never have to lift a finger here.
Quite often it’s the little details that elevate the Maldives’ most exclusive resorts. All of the thatched-roof villas come with private infinity pools – in terms of style, few resorts in the Maldives come close. This is also a resort that puts conservation at the heart of everything it does.
Ultimate Luxury: Highlights
The Maldives are a playground for the super-rich, and there aren’t many experiences that can’t be created on the sun-soaked shores of this real-world paradise. From the moment you arrive in the Maldives, you’ll enjoy bespoke touches and personal flairs designed to elevate your trip to the next level. With seaplane transfers, private beachside dinners, and a host of exclusive marine activities, nothing is off-limits in the Maldives. The Maldives is also home to a stunning array of restaurants and world-class eateries, with some resorts even boasting underwater dining experiences.
