What an amazing place, totally exceeded our expectations. Beautiful island. As soon as we collected our cases at Male, we were met by a resort representative, who guided us to the sea plane check in and then onto the business lounge (amazing) to wait for the sea plane. This was a real treat as we could have easily got lost! That was a lovely touch. Once we arrived at the island, the staff and service was outstanding. A special thanks in particular to NASRU, APHA, LAYLA and the rest of the bar / restaurant team for looking after us. It made our holiday so special. We stayed on the island villas with a private pool (which was a nice blessing considering the heat), we would try the in-ocean next time, but on this occasion didn't feel the need to. The snorkelling was amazing, daily trips to the house reefs is a must. The fish, sea turtles and sting ray were a once in a life time experience. There is so much to mention, welcome cold flannel and sorbet on arrival, bracelet , room decorations, sand art, love Bird feeding, snorkelling, water sports, plus more, Food and drink, plenty to choose from, daily themed food nights If you are thinking of going, do it, you will not be disappointed.

During our time spending in the water house, Fayaz, Totti and Suoodh really helped us a lot. They are very nice and kind people even shared their snacks with us. If you plan to visit Maldives as well, please don’t miss out living in Angsana Velavaru.

Hosted Global Wellness Week at Angsana Velavaru, and it was nothing short of magical. From the calm of the Beach Villa to the surreal beauty of the InOcean Villa, every moment felt like a dream. The hospitality was warm, the food was nourishing (and SO good), and the support from the team made everything seamless. Sunrise yoga, ocean views, mindful moments—it all came together so effortlessly. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a peaceful escape or a soulful retreat. It’s 100% worth the money—for the experience, the setting, and the care you receive. Left with a happy heart, sun-kissed skin, and memories I’ll cherish forever. Can’t wait to be back! Read less
