Maldives Private Island at Voavah, Baa Atoll

Imagine retreating to your own UNESCO haven where no one is watching and anything is possible. A space to spend captivating moments with family and friends, a place to play and explore to your heart’s content, a secluded sanctuary to retreat and spa, the most exclusive VIP venue to celebrate and party, and an inspiring landscape to meet and motivate. Get ready to design your Voavah experience.

Multi-generational magic awaits. Snorkel with manta rays, smile at dolphins and swim with turtles; build sandcastles and picnic on a secluded sandbank; laugh away another day with beach sports and hermit crab racing; spa together or reach new water sports heights. The moment is now. The place is Voavah.

Discover the adrenaline-fuelled depths – and extreme heights – of your ocean territory. Dive with sharks and snorkel with manta rays. Play hard with kitesurfing, X-Jetblades, jet-skis and Seabobs. Deep sea, big game or hand-line fish for dinner. Get nitrox certified, explore long-forgotten wrecks, or work your way up the PADI ladder to become a Master Scuba Diver.

Perched over the glistening lagoon, The Ocean of Consciousness Spa offers bespoke treatments by ila inspired by the five pathways to consciousness: Truth, Wise Choices, Love, Peace and Compassion. Be still and listen. Connect to the pulse of the UNESCO Biosphere with bespoke resonance therapies. Sink into your inner bliss with tailored treatments attributed to a specific pathway. Discover the harmonic potential that exists when man and nature coexist in abundant unity.

We also offer Yoga, Meditation and Pranayama (breathing) classes, beauty treatments and on-call Ayurvedic physicians, acupuncturists and Rossano Ferretti Hair consultants to meet all your well-being needs. Or you can visit Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru for its award-winning Spa & Ayurvedic Retreat, just a 20-minute boat ride away.

Paparazzi-free partying – any occasion, any time. From weddings, birthday bashes, milestone moments and special anniversaries to inner-circle concerts, intimate gigs, restricted-access launches and uber-exclusive events. With 24-hour security and no neighbours, access to world-class chefs, celebrity party planners and some of the most sublime scenery in the world, let your party-planning imagination run wild.

Nothing says incentive more than a private island in the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Fly in business partners to sweeten the deal, hold meetings against a backdrop where nature triumphs, host a corporate retreat to rival all corporate retreats, and revel in the limitless living of hard-earned success.
