Environmental Responsibility

Ayada Maldives' concern for the natural surroundings is evident in the care taken to preserve the natural vegetation and the diverse coral reef during the construction of the resort. Wherever possible, uprooted vegetation has been replanted in an ongoing effort to conserve the lush environment that is home to fragile ecosystems and to provide shelter from the natural elements. Special care was taken during the planning and construction of the over water villas to ensure that there was minimal impact to the coral reef and marine life.

Maintaining the natural and local environment is of paramount importance at Ayada Maldives and therefore we endeavor to evoke environmental awareness amongst our employees and guests whilst implementing sustainable policies to minimize our impact on the environment.

In recognition of the efforts taken to protect and preserve, the Green Star Diamond Award by the Five Star Diamond Award has been bestowed to Ayada Maldives. Recognizing and celebrating the intersection of first class luxury with environmental awareness, Ayada Maldives is deeply honored to be the first recipient of this prestigious award.
