The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort
Private pools, open ocean, six places to eat on one island.
A place to stay on Vommuli
The St. Regis Vommuli sits on its own island in the Vommuli Atoll, about 160 km from Velana International Airport. Getting there takes a domestic flight followed by a speedboat transfer. The resort holds a 4.8 Google rating across 599 reviews. The island has seven villa categories, all with private pools, a house reef for snorkelling and diving, six restaurants, a spa, a fitness centre, and a kids' club. Rates start around $3,489 per night, which sets a clear expectation before you book.
The honest verdict
A high-spend, self-contained island where the private pool and the house reef are the main draws, and six dining options mean you rarely need to choose between the same menu twice.
Best for
- Couples after genuine privacy
- Families who want a kids' club and space
- Divers and snorkellers with reef access on-site
- Travellers comfortable at the top of the Maldives price bracket
Maybe not ideal for
- Budget-conscious travellers
- Those wanting easy access to other islands or local towns
- Guests who find fly-and-boat transfers inconvenient
House reef and water sports
The reef runs directly off the island and is accessible for snorkelling without a boat. Water sport facilities are on-site, and the resort can arrange diving. Bicycle rental is also available for getting around the island itself.
Six restaurants on the island
All dining is on-site. The six restaurants include continental and buffet formats. There are also themed dinner nights, a happy hour, and outdoor dining areas with direct sea views.
Spa and wellness centre
The spa is a separate facility from the fitness centre. Both are on-island. For guests not focused on the reef, the spa tends to be the other anchor of a stay.
Kids' club for families
A dedicated kids' club is on-site. The two-bedroom villas at 334 m² give families room to spread out, and several villa categories include sofa beds alongside the main king or double configuration.
Private pools across all villa types
Every villa category, from the entry-level Garden Villa to the 334 m² two-bedroom layouts, includes a private pool. No villa shares pool access with neighbours.
Outdoor spaces and activities
The island has an outdoor fireplace, picnic area, BBQ facilities, and a sun terrace. Live music and cooking classes run on-site, so there is structured activity beyond the water if you want it.

Getting there
Vommuli Island sits 160 km from Velana International Airport in Malé. The transfer requires a domestic flight to a regional airport, then a speedboat to the island. This is a longer and more involved journey than resorts closer to Malé, so factor in additional travel time and potential costs when planning.
Expect roughly $150–400 per person round trip for the domestic flight + speedboat, arranged by the property. Confirm the fare when booking.
