A tiny, one-hectare island in South Ari Atoll with just 30 thatched villas, a house reef and whale sharks nearby.
Dieses Resortprofil gibt es vorerst nur auf Englisch.
Drift Thelu Veliga is a boutique four-star retreat on an island of just over a hectare in South Ari Atoll, 35 minutes by seaplane from the airport. There are only 30 villas, in a thatched Maldivian style with earthy colours and local handicrafts.
Ten Beach Villas are tucked along the shore, each with a net-canopied king bed and doors onto the sand; twenty Water Villas stand on stilts over the lagoon with a deck into the water and a bathtub facing the ocean.
The restaurant serves a buffet alongside à la carte dishes in the open air, with themed nights and private beach dinners, and the beachfront bar faces the sunset. There's an overwater spa with Indonesian, Thai and Indian massages, a house reef, diving, and trips to South Ari's whale shark point.
It's very small, with one restaurant and one bar, so it suits people who want quiet rather than choice. The seaplane is compulsory unless you take the slow public ferry.
