Zamani Islands is an off-plan private-island development in the South Malé Atoll, Maldives, by Atoll Estates. Across 8 islands and roughly 70 hectares, it offers fully serviced 4-bedroom Mansions, 6-bedroom Private Estates and one 8-bedroom Grande Estate. Public launch pricing reviewed on 15 August 2026 starts at USD 17.499M for full payment or USD 19M on the milestone plan. Developer materials describe strata-title ownership, a permanent residency visa, private beach access and a 30 m super-yacht berth; every term remains subject to contract verification. GADAIT advises the buyer independently and is not the developer.
Zamani Islands is a private-island development in the Indian Ocean by developer Atoll Estates, reported to span 8 islands across roughly 70 hectares. Architecture and interiors are credited to YODEZEEN, with master planning and architecture by Killa Design — two studios known for sculptural, contemporary work. The estate is conceived as a multi-island resort community, with three distinct resorts woven through the master plan.
What is currently presented for sale is a limited collection of 4-bedroom Mansions, 6-bedroom Private Estates and a flagship 8-bedroom Grande Estate, sold off-plan ahead of completion. A defining feature is the reported ownership structure: strata-title with a permanent residency visa, a structure that differs from the leasehold model common to most Maldives branded residences. GADAIT acts as an independent advisor, giving qualified buyers off-market access and acquisition advisory on the programme.

A beachfront home shaped for family life and entertaining, with generous indoor-outdoor living, private gardens, panoramic sea views and a calm natural-material palette.
A larger standalone estate balancing private retreats with entertaining spaces, multiple pools, guest accommodation, a private cinema, games lounge and wellness areas.
The collection’s bespoke crown jewel, designed around the owner’s vision with expansive living and entertaining spaces and a reported 270-degree ocean frontage.
The development is designed as a full island estate, anchored by a super-yacht marina and three distinct resorts.
The proposition extends beyond the home itself. Public developer plans bring dining, wellness, family facilities, sport, retail and yacht infrastructure together across three resort environments. For a buyer, the important diligence point is not only what is planned, but which facilities are included, when they open and how owner access is governed.
An underwater fine-dining concept, steak and seafood venues, Japanese and modern Indian dining, all-day restaurants, beach bars, a wine cellar, beach club and adults-only spaces are presented across the islands.
The resort plan includes an overwater wellness retreat and one of the Maldives’ early medical-spa concepts, alongside fitness areas, private wellness zones and nature-led restorative experiences.
Kids’ clubs, cinema, bowling and arcade spaces complement tennis, padel, running, fitness, diving, snorkelling, sailing, kayaking and other lagoon activities for multi-generational stays.
The planned 120-berth marina covers about 60,000 m² and is presented with yacht and captain’s clubs plus crew facilities. Developer materials reference a dedicated 30-metre berth with certain homes.
All imagery is an artist’s impression supplied on the official project website. Facilities, specifications, opening sequence and owner entitlements remain subject to the developer’s final documentation.
Zamani Islands is presented in the South Malé Atoll, across 8 islands spanning roughly 70 hectares — an unusually large multi-island estate even by Maldives standards. The Killa Design master plan brings together three resorts, private homes, boutique promenades, beaches and a super-yacht marina around a broad natural lagoon.
Developer materials state an approximately 40-minute speedboat transfer from Velana International Airport (MLE). For owners, the layout aims to combine standalone beachfront privacy with a serviced estate and resort amenities connected by short island or boat journeys. Actual transfer route, operating hours and arrival arrangements should be reconfirmed before travel.
Zamani Islands pairs the structural scarcity of Maldives private-island residences with an ownership model marketed as strata-title plus permanent residency — materially different from the leasehold structure used by most branded residences in the country. Design pedigree, a super-yacht marina and an off-plan entry are the core pillars to examine for international buyers.
Directional only. Ownership structure, residency terms, delivery timing and pricing are set by the developer and are not guaranteed. We build full financial models and review the contract before any commitment.
Zamani is an off-plan, ultra-prime purchase. A brochure and a price list are only the starting point. Before funds are committed, GADAIT coordinates a document-led review of the asset, the ownership vehicle and the services promised to owners.
Zamani Islands is reported to be acquired on a strata-title basis for fully serviced mansions and estates, with a permanent residency visa attached to ownership — a structure that differs from the leasehold norm in the Maldives. The process runs through reservation, due diligence and completion, with GADAIT acting independently in the buyer's interest at each step. For the wider ownership framework, see our guide to buying property in the Maldives.
Local mortgages are uncommon for foreign buyers of Maldives residences. In practice, acquisitions are financed through three main routes — and GADAIT works with private-banking partners to structure the most efficient option per profile.
Financing availability depends on the developer's plans, the buyer's profile and jurisdiction. We introduce qualified buyers to private-banking partners and confirm options before any commitment.
GADAIT is an independent advisor on this programme — not the developer. We give qualified buyers off-market access, review the structure in your interest, and compare it against other ultra-luxury opportunities so capital is allocated with confidence.
The collection spans fully serviced homes from 4 to 8 bedrooms — the 4-bedroom Mansion, 6-bedroom Private Estate and flagship 8-bedroom Grande Estate with its reported 270° ocean frontage. Each format is conceived for private-island living, with direct beach access and resort-grade service throughout the multi-island estate.
Detailed floor plans, room schedules and orientation drawings for each residence type are held in the developer's documentation. GADAIT shares the relevant plans with qualified buyers on request, matched to the residences that fit your objective.
Layouts and dimensions are directional and set by the developer; detailed plans are released to qualified buyers under the developer's documentation.
