- This International Women’s Day, it’s her time to travel—time to explore, unwind, and embrace new horizons. ✨ Whether it’s a solo escape, an adventure with friends, or a moment to reconnect with loved ones, the world is waiting. Sun-soaked beaches, endless blue waters, and memories yet to be made—where will her journey take her next? ???????? #HerTimeToTravel #VillaResorts
- Every piece lovingly tells a story of artisanal heritage.... for months, our basket weavers have been handweaving our signature lampshades. We love that they nod gently in the wind & cast a soothing, patterned light. #VillaHavenMaldives
- Can you think of a better way to start the day? Maldivian coffee or tea rituals are often enjoyed with a delicious snack called Bai tharafana, rolled puffed rice balls coated in a soft caramel. We like to think that our Deluxe coffee is arguably the best in the Maldives as our beans are sourced and roasted especially for us, but that's just the beginning of your global culinary journey. #VillaNautica #VillaResorts

- Dreaming of a romantic beach dinner? It's a perfect windless evening, the sand still warm underfoot, salty breezes through your hair. Our team love to surprise with a private dinner set up for a delicious seafood feast under the stars, an experience to cherish forever. Tag the person you would like to share this moment with.

- Our pop-up food trucks or 'ghaadiya' are serving delicious Maldivian snacks to taste in miniature, handcrafted banana-leaf plates so that you can enjoy bite-sized flavours as you walk through the gardens. Try valhomas (seared tuna chips), and bread fruit, or even the spicy fish cake, or kulhi boakibaa. All of them are delicious – as are the traditional samoosas. #VillaPark #VillaResorts
