Nestled on the stunning tropical island of Thelu Veliga, located in the famous South Ari Atoll, sits the Drift Thelu Veliga Retreat. This unspoilt destination delivers an authentic Maldivian escape, where rustic luxury is complimented by the pristine and untouched natural beauty. The property is just a 35-minute seaplane flight away from Malé International Airport.


The retreat's 30 villas are tastefully decorated and are all are equipped with a minibar and a tea & coffee maker, for your convenience. The private bathrooms all include a hairdryer and tempting toiletries, derived from organic teas. Some of the resort's villas have private access to the beach whilst some are elegantly propped over the island's turquoise lagoon.


In addition to the resort's beautiful accommodation, Drift provides guests with its own colourful house reef, spa, restaurant and bar as well as a wide range of water sports activities.
