The Sea of Vakkaru is truly amazing, offering a vast, unobstructed view. The beach boasts soft white sand, while the water near the overwater villas is between 1.4 to 2 meters deep with gentle waves. Vakkaru has its own seaplane lounge,The service begins even before you reach the resort; from the moment we stepped off the plane, we were greeted and smoothly escorted to our destination.All the service is exceptional, ensuring you feel attended to at all times. We were on HB and initially were concerned about not having enough to eat, so we packed a lot of snacks. However, it turned out that there was plenty of food, and we ended up carrying most of the snacks back untouched. Our butler, Iby, was very punctual and attentive. We were pleased with the rooms and activities he arranged. A word of advice: be cautious about leaving food outside your beach villa, as we learned when our tea was taken by crows. Additionally, the kids' club is excellent. It is well-equipped and offers a variety of engaging activities that kept my little girl thoroughly entertained. Read less

I think choosing Vaccaru Resort in the Maldives for a honeymoon was the best option. We were happy every day thanks to the beautiful sea, water villa and the very friendly staff at Vaccaru. And thank you so much Suzanne for providing us with all the convenience.
