Milaidhoo Maldives, 11 May 2026 – Milaidhoo Maldives has been recognised in Tripadvisor's® Travellers' Choice® Best of the Best Awards 2026, earning a place among the top 1% of hotels worldwide based on authentic guest reviews and ratings collected over the past year.
The prestigious recognition reflects the experiences shared by travellers who have stayed at the boutique luxury island resort, celebrating Milaidhoo's commitment to personalised hospitality, authentic Maldivian experiences and exceptional service.
Located within the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of Baa Atoll, Milaidhoo Maldives offers an intimate escape with just 50 private pool villas surrounded by turquoise lagoons, vibrant coral reefs and pristine tropical landscapes. Designed for travellers seeking genuine connections with nature and local culture, the adults-focused resort combines barefoot luxury with personalised experiences.
"We are deeply grateful to every guest who has chosen Milaidhoo and taken the time to share their experience," said Paul van Frank.
"To be recognised among Tripadvisor's Best of the Best is an honour, but what means the most to us are the memories behind each review—the anniversaries celebrated, the friendships formed, the marine encounters discovered and the moments of joy shared on our island. This recognition also belongs to our Milaidhoo Family, whose warmth, care and genuine passion create the heartfelt experiences our guests remember long after they leave."
