Resort Intro

Adaaran Prestige Vadoo Island Resort is located in the South Malé Atoll, just about 8 kilometers from the capital city of Malé, reachable by speedboat in approximately 15 minutes. As the first resort in the Maldives to introduce the concept of water villas, it stands as an early pioneer of the water villa model. The property recently underwent a comprehensive renovation, with updated amenities throughout the guest rooms. The resort features a total of 50 rooms, all independent overwater villas. Designed with a boutique-style approach, each villa is set apart and accessed through traditional Japanese bamboo doors leading into private courtyards, complete with spacious decks and private swimming pools. Inside, the interiors are open-plan and feature Japanese tatami mats, glass flooring, and outdoor double spa bathtubs.

Adaaran Group offers a full-board inclusive service that covers a wide range of activities for guests.
