The resort
Overview
NAKAI Dhiggiri Resort is an intimate 3-hectare island in the quiet, charming Vaavu Atoll, its Over Water bungalows stretching out over the lagoon in an iconic Y-shaped jetty just 20 minutes by seaplane from Velana International Airport.
Dhiggiri's Beach Bungalows, Garden Villa, Over Water bungalows, and Water Villa Loft suites blend coral-inspired architecture with an authentic Maldivian intimacy. Guests dine at the sunset Beach Restaurant and the oceanfront Over Water Restaurant, unwind at the Maadigha Spa, and dive with the Nakai Diving Center to Felidhoo Atoll's famous channels — Miyaru Kandu and Fotteyo Kandu — among the Maldives' most celebrated dive sites.
