Soneva Secret

Secluded beach and overwater villas on Dhipparufushi, with personalised dining, marine experiences and in-villa wellbeing.

About

Soneva Secret is a secluded private-island resort on Dhipparufushi in Haa Dhaalu Atoll, in the far western reaches of the Maldives. Beach and overwater villas bring guests close to the lagoon, with spacious indoor-outdoor living and open ocean views. Its Sea Loft villas are reached by boat for an especially private stay. The resort shapes dining and experiences around each guest, from private lunches and dinners beneath the stars to sandbank picnics and ocean ziplining. The surrounding waters offer opportunities for diving and marine encounters, with coral reefs, manta rays, dolphins and turtles. Wellbeing experiences include treatments and practices brought to the villa, supported by Soneva Soul therapists. A Barefoot Butler helps personalise the stay, and the island can also be reserved for exclusive use. Transfers can be arranged by seaplane from Velana International Airport, or via Kulhudhuffushi Airport followed by a speedboat journey.
