Angsana Velavaru

We are here at the moment and there’s nothing we can find fault with. ||From the moment we landed at Malé we were treated exceptionally. The resort staff working at the airport could not have been more helpful and when we needed some medical assistance with our 5 year old they swiftly and professionally took care of everything. ||Arriving in on the seaplane was an incredible experience and on the speedboat we met Jan, EA Manager, who was just coming back from his own vacation and who already knew who we were. This was impressive. Every single member of staff we have encountered along the way have been nothing but helpful, courteous and genuinely caring trying to make sure our stay has been going as perfectly as possible. I will write another review on leaving and mention these by name, as I’m sure I would get some spellings wrong presently. ||We are staying in a Beach Villa with infinity pool on the sunrise side of the island and it’s so beautiful. The over-water villas are a short boat ride away and we plan to go over to have a look before we leave.||The food is delicious. The sand really is white and the ocean is a shade of blue I’ve never seen before. ||Paradise. ||We have 5 nights left here and I already know we will be so sad to leave. I will be recommending here to all my friends and clients in Ireland.

We stayed here for 6 nights. 3 nights in an ocean villa and 3 nights in a beach villa. Both were wonderful, cozy, and exclusive. We went snorkeling on our own every day, and once also joined a group tour. We saw sharks, turtles, rays, an octopus, a moray eel, and so many colorful fish. Snorkeling was such a beautiful experience for us. The room service was excellent, everyone was so friendly and helpful. The rooms were always well cared for and spotless. I definitely recommend getting a room with a pool, it’s so refreshing! The ocean villa had many lovely spots to relax and unwind, while the beach villa had a very romantic private little garden. The food at the Azzuro restaurant was amazing, and we really enjoyed the Kaani buffet, where every evening featured a different themed dinner. They also cooked food over an open flame, customized to your taste. What made our trip truly special was Laila, who overheard during lunch that we were on our honeymoon and surprised us with a beautifully decorated dinner table, fresh flowers, and candles. We are so grateful for that wonderful gesture. A huge thank-you to everyone, we had an unforgettable time!

Taking a seaplane to the island, then taking a yacht to the island villa where I will stay, was truly remarkable! Thank you to the General Manager, Ahmed! Your team was great! As a hotelier working in the same field, as I mentioned to you in a moment of chit-chat outside the lobby on the island, I can say every staff member you have is an asset! They are so friendly and hospitable. They have a genuine care and anticipate guests' needs at all times. Highly recommend! Everyone is very nice and makes you feel welcome! Very friendly management who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable! This is an intangible gift!

Our stay at Angsana Velavaru’s Water Villa was pure paradise — crystal-clear waters, breathtaking sunsets, and unmatched serenity. The villa’s private pool and ocean views felt like a dream. Exceptional service and warm hospitality made every moment unforgettable

I spent my 50th b-day here, my husband's present. Unforgettable, once in a lifetime memory... all the smiles and nice attitude of the people here made my b-day a piece of miracle. I had not only my island emotions, but many surprises from the team here.... Thank you, all of you for these wonderful days!!!!! Food, scents, cleanness, mood, it is not only nature! People here know what they do, for us....

The total paradise getaway, a paradise island you can walk around in 15 minutes. So if you are looking to chill, swim, dine with great food and totally relax… this is the place. The room we had this time was with plunge pool, ideal if you have children with you, our boy spent all the time in there. Beach huts are great, I prefer beach to the wooden over sea (wood gets hot to walk on), on beach you don’t wear shoes AT ALL! Took off as soon as got off sea plane, put back on when we got back on the seaplane for our journey home. Beach huts had private garden area with outside bath and shower, the hut itself are basic but have everything you need, AC fridge etc. The people are the best, really great people, we don’t normally return to the same places but this atol we have now been twice. It really is paradise. I swam with turtles, sharks (black tips) and so many fish and rays every day, was truly amazing. If you get the chance,… go!

It was a pleasant stay with a good food, various themes each evening, proper twice per a day cleaning, friendly and attentive staff. Always a plenty water in the room, water included in the halfboard for a dinner as well. Free of charge kayak and sap, snorkeling equipment as well. Good daily trips to the reef for snorkeling as well included. It was good

We came to this island for our honeymoon and our first-ever trip to the Maldives. The moment we stepped off the seaplane, we were completely captivated by the view—the "Pearl of the Indian Ocean" truly lives up to its name!||While we knew the island doesn't have a 24-hour butler, we were beyond lucky to be helped by you, Sophie, at the front desk. You were absolutely incredible! 🩷❤🧡💛||You were so thorough and responsible. You proactively booked all our activities and provided us with a clear, printed itinerary. Thank you for suggesting we plan ahead, giving us the flexibility to adjust if the weather changed. Your detailed explanations on everything—from our package details and restaurant dress codes to recommending a photographer—made us feel completely at ease. You personally helped us book our snorkeling trips and informed us about free activities like kayaking and paddleboarding.||On our departure day, when bad weather threatened to strand us, we felt utterly helpless. Once again, you were there for us—translating, communicating with other departments, and, most importantly, calming our nerves. Your ability to genuinely empathize with guests is truly rare and precious.||Our Maldivian honeymoon may have ended, but we feel we've gained a wonderful friend in you. We can't wait to see you again!
