Vaavu Atoll
NAKAI Dhiggiri Resort
NAKAI Dhiggiri Resort is a tranquil, adults-preferred island retreat located on the pristine 3-hectare Dhiggiri Island in Vaavu Atoll — just 20 minutes by seaplane or 90 minutes by speedboat from Velana International Airport. Part of the Italian-managed NAKAI Group, which has been operating in the Maldives for over 20 years, Dhiggiri is considered a "niche" atoll known to the most passionate Maldives enthusiasts for its splendid dive sites and distinctive naturalistic character. The island's low population density and minimal human settlements create breathtaking natural landscapes. The 62 bungalows — 34 overwater and 27 beachfront — are crafted with traditional coral block construction and feature contemporary wooden interiors with a light Italian touch. Italian and Maldivian cuisine are celebrated in the resort's restaurants, while the Maadhiga Spa provides a serene sanctuary for relaxation. Diving, snorkelling, evening entertainment, astronomy experiences and excursions complete a genuinely authentic Maldivian escape.
