Velassaru
Hotel category
Deluxe
Velassuru is a picture-perfect coral island offering affordable luxury combined with minimalist contemporary Maldivian chic. Surrounded by a pristine white powder beach, and set on the edge of a spectacular turquoise lagoon only 25 minutes from Male by speedboat, your emersion into tropical paradise begins that little bit sooner at Velassaru. Here you can experience relaxed Indian Ocean days at the Spa with its signature treatments and uninterrupted views of the Maldivian seascape, or take to water and try your hand at a wide range of activities including snorkelling, scuba diving, water-skiing, kayaking and wakeboarding. Should you be susceptible to itchy feet the idea of an island excursion, sunset cruise, or dolphin discovery adventure might appeal - there is always plenty to do at Velassaru! With five dining venues and two bars you are ensured both variety and a taste of the exotic during your stay. A nice touch is that complimentary soft drinks, juices and water are included during meals. Velassaru has 129 contemporary and distinctly Maldivian bungalows and villas located by the beach or over water. Spacious split-level Deluxe Bungalows (70sqm) are surrounded by tropical foliage and are steps away from the beach, while the larger Beach Villas (96sqm) have sea views. Velassaru also has Water Villas and rooms with private plunge pools.
