The world has spoken, and for the  fourth consecutive year, Vakkaru Maldives is honoured to take home three distinguished  awards at the 2023 World Travel Awards (WTA). This year, the timeless sanctuary was once  again crowned the Indian Ocean Leading Resort, while the Vakkaru Overwater Residence  awarded Leading Hotel Suite in the Maldives and Indian Ocean category. 

“We are humbled and honoured to receive these accolades for the fourth time,” said Iain  McCormack, General Manager, Vakkaru Maldives. “Our continuous recognition is a  testament to our team’s unwavering dedication and the unique experiences we offer to our  guests. Every award we receive propels us to set the bar even higher, and we promise to  continue delivering unparalleled experiences.” 

While accolades are not new to the luxury resort, the outstanding location, luxurious villas, first class facilities and exceptional service captivate the guests’ hearts and keep them returning.  Here are a few reasons that make Vakkaru Maldives an undeniable gem in the Indian Ocean.

Be it a  private dining experience under the stars or an underwater exploration of vibrant marine life,  the mission is to ensure each moment is unforgettable.
