The resort
NOOE Maldives Kunaavashi is a private island resort in the Vaavu Atoll, also known as "Wow Atoll" for its vibrant marine life. The resort features 72 villas, including overwater and beach categories, and three restaurants offering fresh seafood and beach dinners. Guests can choose from Bed & Breakfast, Half Board, or Full Board meal plans. The transfer is by a 25-minute seaplane or a 75-minute speedboat. The location provides access to a rich coral ecosystem, with nurse sharks and eagle rays frequenting the excellent house reef, making it a notable destination for snorkeling and diving. The resort is distinguished by its contemporary design, family-friendly facilities including a kids club, and polite service.
