Retreat location
Located in Baa Atoll, in the heart of UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Maalhos is a small and beautiful local island barely a kilometer in length, with a population of about 500 people. The island is surrounded by white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters. The lush vegetation accentuated by swaying palm trees makes this island one of the most naturally beautiful islands in the Maldives. The island has its own private beach, named bikini beach where you can relax, soak up the sun, and enjoy swimming in the crystal clear waters of Maalhos lagoon. The island is surrounded by a spectacular house reef with rich flora and fauna. Baby sharks, moray eels, rays, and turtles are often found on the house reef. The house reef is accessible from the beach and is perfect for snorkeling and diving. The charming locals, the untouched beauty, and simplicity will leave you wanting to come back and will definitely make your Maldives' dreams come true!
