Velassaru Maldives

Velassaru Maldives offers a sophisticated and contemporary 5-star retreat in the South Male' Atoll, just a 25-minute speedboat ride from Male'. The resort features 129 minimalist-chic villas and bungalows, both overwater and beach-fronted, many with private plunge pools and direct access to the pristine turquoise lagoon or white sandy beaches. Culinary experiences are a highlight, with five distinct restaurants serving an array of international cuisines – from Teppanyaki over the water to Mediterranean delights and Pan-Asian flavours – complemented by two stylish bars. Guests can unwind at the stunning infinity pool overlooking the ocean, rejuvenate at the overwater The Spa, or explore the vibrant house reef with the PADI dive school. Activities include watersports, marine biology presentations, and sunset cruises. Velassaru is perfect for couples and honeymooners seeking a stylish, activity-filled, yet serene Maldivian experience with exceptional dining.
