We're passionate about creating a world where we live in harmony. Our resorts are a celebration of the islands we call home and are places that should be protected and preserved. Discover more about the steps Villa Resorts has already taken to become more sustainable and the plans we have for a more eco-friendly future.

Villa Nautica and Villa Park resorts prioritize sustainability with extensive solar panel projects. Villa Nautica has 2,621 solar panels, generating 4,500-5,000 units of daily electricity and significantly reducing diesel consumption and CO2 emissions. Villa Park features 2,464 marine-grade photovoltaic solar panels, producing 3,574-4,076 kWh of solar energy daily. Plans for expansion include lagoon floating solar panels and increased coverage, aiming to switch off generators and further adopt renewable energy.

All of our islands harvest and process rainwater with on-site treatment centres. We offer reusable glass bottles, even for our excursions. Producing our own drinkable water enables us to avoid plastic bottles, which are a constant danger to the Maldives' wildlife and marine life. 

We also donate plastic for recycling in a partnership with Parley for the Oceans – an organization that addresses major threats to our oceans and fights for environmental protection through recycling initiatives and global projects. 

The coral reefs surrounding our resorts are part of the eighth largest reef system in the world. They're also home to a variety of endangered marine species. In recent years, climate change and coral reef bleaching have damaged large portions of the Maldives' ecosystems, so working to maintain what's left is vital. Reef cleaning is done regularly and resort guests are welcome to join in this collaborative effort.

The pristine white beaches and secluded sandbanks nestled in crystal-clear turquoise lagoons are synonymous with the natural beauty of our tropical archipelago. Our collection of resorts have some of the most idyllic white sandy beaches and uninterrupted shorelines in the Maldives. Our aim is to leave nothing but our footprints behind, so all of our resorts pledge to protect the natural environment with several key initiatives, including regular clean-ups on the islands and nearby sandbanks, and planting coconut saplings for a greener and brighter future. 

The dense vegetation that covers Villa Park is home to various migratory birds. While they can be seen across the island, they're easiest to spot at their sanctuary, close to the botanical gardens. We leave this area to grow naturally, creating a rich, nurturing environment for our migratory guests. Royal Island is located in the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of Baa Atoll, which is home to a variety of tropical birds and wildlife.

Villa Park produces more than 20 000 coconuts per month, and a wide variety of tropical fruits, vegetables and herbs are picked daily for resort restaurants. To protect the biodiversity of the islands, our gardeners only use organic pesticides.
