The warm sun against your skin, the distant sound of trees swaying in the breeze, a fresh cocktail in hand, and six glorious days to drink this all in…this is relaxation, Velassaru style.

You'll be staying in the lavish Velassaru Resort, situated on a private coral island just south of Malé. Once you land at Malé International Airport, a luxury speedboat will be waiting to transfer you directly to the resort. There, you'll be warmly welcomed by the staff as soon as you set foot on the island, before they show you around and help you settle into your private Deluxe Bungalow (upgrade options available too).

Take your time to freshen up before you take advantage of the resort's incredible amenities. Without a doubt, your resort's main allure is in its beautiful beaches, which will delight the sun and water lovers among us. While snorkelers will love the abundant reefs and plentiful marine life at many of the island's great snorkelling spots, there’s still plenty to see in the crystal clear shallows. One special evening, enjoy climbing on board a complimentary Maldivian sunset cruise and see how this island comes to life after the sun sets!

Rise and shine each morning to the majestic Maldivian sunrise and enjoy complimentary daily breakfast at your resort. When it comes to lunch or dinner, five dining options are available on the island, including an over-water Japanese teppanyaki bar, a beach diner (yes, literally on the beach), and an Etesian fine-dining restaurant. There are also two bars, both of which are pleasant and lively areas with live music and DJs on occasion. End your day with a tranquil treatment at the large onsite spa, with ten over-water treatment rooms and its own pool, and three free sunset yoga classes each week. 

Allow the friendly staff at the Velassaru Maldives Resort to show you the true meaning of relaxation. With unforgettable sunsets, evening strolls along white sandy beaches, snorkelling with exotic fish, fine dining in magnificent restaurants and so much more awaiting you in Paradise - need we try and sell this more?

Velassaru Maldives offers you the perfect seclusion. Situated in South Malé Atoll, enjoy this private coral island in the sapphire blue Indian Ocean, and only a 30 minute speedboat ride from Malé International Airport. A guests services team will be at the airport to escort you to the speedboats, with cold drinks and a warm welcome awaiting you at the resort. Gliding over the jewel like waters will have you in a paradise frame of mind in no time, and all before you even step foot in your 5* Maldives resort accommodation.

24-hour guest services and staff who greet you in your language. Endless views of the glittering waves from an infinity pool. Invigorating water sports.
