Getting there
Velaa Private Island Maldives is reached from Velana International Airport (MLE) in Malé, the main international gateway to the Maldives. The seaplane flight takes about 45 minutes, with views over the atolls on the way. The speedboat transfer takes about 35 minutes, and speedboats can usually run after dark too, which helps with late arrivals. Seaplanes fly in daylight only, so guests landing late in the day usually spend a night near the airport and fly on next morning. We arrange the transfer with the resort and include it in your quote.
Who it suits
Velaa suits couples, multi-generation families and golfers who want ultra-luxury and space on one private island. Contact Maldives Agents for rates.
