About
Dhiggiri Tourist Resort, known publicly as NAKAI Dhiggiri Resort, occupies a three-hectare island in Vaavu Atoll. Its compact setting combines white-sand beaches, tropical vegetation and a nearby reef, with accommodation overlooking the ocean or tucked into the island. Guests can choose from overwater accommodation and suites, beach bungalows and a garden villa. The overwater rooms have outdoor decks facing the sea, while the beach bungalows sit just a short walk from the shore. The resort offers all-inclusive and à la carte dining, with Italian and Maldivian specialities, alongside bars for drinks and relaxed evenings. Maadhiga spa provides massage and wellness treatments. Reef access, nearby snorkelling spots and a diving centre make underwater exploration a central part of a stay, while excursions and sporting activities offer ways to enjoy the island and surrounding sea. Dhiggiri lies south of Malé. The resort describes access as approximately 20 minutes by seaplane or 90 minutes by speedboat.
