GENERAL INFORMATION
The perfect option for the ‘no news no shoes’ holiday. We offer the best of our most valuable asset - nature, in all its abundance. This is the perfect picture of the tropical island haven - the image that almost always comes to mind. A small, almost circular island, about a quarter of a kilometer in diameter, the island is covered with lush vegetation and crowned by tall coconut palms. No wonder the atmosphere here is cozy and intimate. Right round the island the beach is of the finest white sand one can imagine. Lying on the beach listening to the tiny waves of the shallow blue lagoon gently caressing the sands, accompanied with the pleasant music created by the rustle of the palms, one can simply blend in with nature.
The perfect food for the soul, Vakarufalhi is for those seeking a haven of peace for total relaxation, to unwind completely from the hassles of modern living. Here you really are ‘away from it all’ enjoying the simple abundance of nature. Vakaru is designed to blend in harmoniously with its surroundings, to match the nature’s perfection and its simplicity. The local-style thatched roofing you see wherever you are at the resort match perfectly with the coconut palms while the layered soft white sand on the floors in all public areas keeps you in touch with nature even when you are indoors. At Vakarufalhi you would get the rare feeling of being at one with nature.
The island has got its own house reef just about 50 meters from the beach, where you can snorkel or dive to see the abundant varieties of colorful fish and corals which habitat the reef. The reef encloses the shallow lagoon around the island.
The small size of the island, the quite environment and the rich natural beauty make this island perfect for relaxing holidays.

Although you may feel like Robinson Crusoe on this tiny tropical paradise of ours, there is no lack of comforts when it comes to accommodation. Most of the 50 rooms on the island are individual bungalows, all surrounded by the lush tropical vegetation in its entire natural splendor. Spread out around the island offering complete privacy, all face the beach. Convenient family accommodation is provided by opening up the interconnecting doors between semi-detached bungalows, especially designed for the purpose. Cool tiled floor offers welcome respite after a relaxing day in the sun and the sea. Colorful tropical patterns on the drapery add a touch of color to the interiors. Large glass doors facing the beach offer an excellent view of the bright colors of the lagoon and your own area of the beach. In keeping with the simplicity of the resort the rooms are spacious and airy, tastefully furnished and with nice little details that remind you that you are in the Maldives.

All rooms are air-conditioned and features two single or one king sized bed, overhead ceiling fan, sitting area, stocked mini bar, IDD telephone, stereo CD player and hair dryer. Each room has a small verandah facing the beach where you may relax quietly in the comfortable chairs provided. If you would like to sit and relax still closer to the beach you may use your very own sun loungers placed right in front of your room on the beach. The attached bathroom, partly open air with a small garden, is equipped with bathtub and shower with hot water and bath accessories. An additional shower in the small garden offers a pleasant choice and allows stargazers to have a bath under the open sky.
