Palm Villa (Noonu Atoll)

This is Mr Habbeebs local island where he started his business. We have 10 rooms available.

Velidhoo (Dhivehi: ވެލިދޫ) is one of the inhabited islands of the Noonu Atoll.

The origin of the first settlers of the Velidhu Island still remains a mystery. The historians date early settlers back to 5th century BC with the Aryan immigrants coming from neighboring countries India and Srilanka. According to early settlers the Veliduans we found today mix up of people from the near two islands in the atoll. The Magoodhoo and Tholhendhoo Island and today Velidhu is found as the island with highest population count within the atoll. The Veliduans' language is Dhivehi.

The island has a lot of historic monuments too and one of them is the presence of a tree (velidhu bodu nikagas), a tree which has been there for more than 5 centuries recorded. The island is said to be one of the greatest fishing area in the Maldives, Specially the Noonu Atoll within the atoll.

Much of the history of Velidhu is yet unknown but research and studies are being done and ongoing to find the mysteries hidden.

As fishing is very good we offer night fishing, big game fishing (full day) or traditional fishing, we can visit historical sites, we organize BBQ's, we can visit uninhabited islands, we organize Maldivian nights with Maldivian buffet and traditional music (Boduberu) and folk dance. Check our Things to do > page to see what is possible.

Like all islands in the Maldives we offer snorkeling and diving and soon hope to offer jet skiing and other related activities.
