Chaaya Island Dhonveli is a small and beautiful
tropical island in the Maldives. Newly redeveloped, the resort is
stylish and comfortable, with a relaxed atmosphere. Offering exclusive
access to the classic Pasta Point surf break, Chaaya Island Dhonveli
is the only resort with a programme designed especially for surfers
by Atoll Adventures. |

Chaaya Island Dhonveli Surfing
|
 |
Surfing at Pasta Point
and the surf transfer boat services are for the exclusive use of
Atoll Adventures' clients, and must be booked through Atoll
Travel or one of its agents.
The Chaaya Dhonveli surf programme is operated
by Atoll Adventures,
the most experienced and professional surf operator in the Maldives. |
|
 |
Pasta Point, the region's most
consistent break, is just a minute's walk from your room. (Check
the Chaaya
Dhonveli Gallery)
Other classic breaks - Sultans, Honky's
and Jailbreak - are less than ten minutes away
by boat. You can see the waves from Chaaya Dhonveli, so you'll know
when they're pumping. No matter what the conditions are, you're
in the perfect spot. (see Maldives
Surf for more information) |
 |
 |
Boats are available throughout the day, from
6am for those who want a solid session before breakfast. We make
morning and afternoon trips to Chickens and Colas
(about 45 minutes away) when conditions are favourable.
All boats have radio communication with each
other and the island, for the latest information on surf conditions
and surfer numbers, and as a safety precaution. |

Accommodation & Activities
|
 |
Chaaya Island Dhonveli accommodates
up to 250 guests, but the number of surfers is limited to just 30.
Resort facilities include a spa, open-air restaurants, two bars (one
overlooking Pasta Point), swimming pool, billiards, tennis court,
badminton, gym, safe beach for children, and a fully certified PADI
Diving School. With a perfect white sand beach and plenty to do for
non-surfing partners and children, it's a great place to relax or
to holiday with the family.

Wake up to the sound of the surf in a Water

of the waves and the Pasta Point break just a short stroll away. Water
Bungalows are air conditioned and fully equipped with spa bath, minibar,
tea/coffee making, TV, telephone, writing table, separate bathroom

The open-air Koimala Restaurant serves
an international buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner. For those
who like to try the local foods, and particularly enjoy a curry, the
Maldivian dishes are highly recommended. Right at the water's edge,
the Raiyvilaa Bar opens daily from 8am till late
at night. It's the place to enjoy a fancy cocktail on the open deck
as the sun sets on another tropical island day. The Raalhu
Bar, overlooking the break at Pasta Point, is the ideal place
to watch the action or retreat for a cool beer after a long day in
the surf. It's open from 6am till late at night. |
 |
 |
Discover Maldivian village life on an Island-Hopping
Tour, or visit the main island of Male on a Shopping-Sightseeing
Trip - just book at the resort (extra charge applies).
The resort's own dive operator conducts Scuba
Diving courses and runs daily trips to some of the best
dive sites in the Maldives.
The Wings Spa offers a range of health and beauty
treatments - for surfers we especially recommend the Sport Massage,
to loosen tight muscles and relax the body and mind. |
