Nestling on a secluded palm-shaded Maldivian coral island, the moment you step into this chic, ultra-stylish resort, you will truly feel at peace. The beautiful Velassaru Maldives strikes a perfect balance between breathtakingly natural surroundings and the most impressive of contemporary amenities. Despite being one of the smallest of the Maldivian luxury islands, it provides everything you could possibly want for an enchanting Maldives island escape.
One of the main factors contributing to why people visit the Maldives is the natural beauty. Velassaru's beauty is no exception, it is the gorgeous expansive beach, layered in the softest of white sand stretching out as far as you can see towards the shimmering blue and turquoise lagoon. The lagoon is host to blue herons stalking along the shoreline, crabs scuttling over the sands, and baby basking sharks venturing right up to the water's edge. Beside the beach is the exquisite infinity pool, one of the resort's stand-out features, flawlessly designed to give the illusion of blending with the ocean and the natural beauty of the Maldives with a sandy walk-in entry point. Inland, wooden walkways, lined with lush tropical foliage and a myriad of brilliant butterflies flitting amongst the abundant colourful flowers, wind among the thatched resort buildings.
An enticing collection of dining options awaits you, including the romantic Sand restaurant, with candle-lit tables spread over the sands, offering seafood dishes cooked international-style on hot stone grills and live cooking stations. For many guests, the top choice is Teppanyaki a Japanese restaurant, situated on stilts over the water, where you can sit out on the deck watching the sting rays and reef sharks or sit at the chef's table watching the food being cooked before your eyes.
Vela and Turquoise are both set amid luxuriant greenery and offer an array of exotic menus, while Etesian is the place for gourmet Mediterranean cuisine in a stylish, elegant space. And the private dining options are pretty special too, including the acclaimed Private Satay Barbecue on the beach, with your own chef and waiter, or Island Escape, where you are transported with a luxury hamper to a private secluded sandbank.
People visit the Maldives to experience the magical marine life surrounding the island. You can snorkel on the fabulous coral reef or make use of their very own Immersion Dive Centre for novice and experienced divers. The Glide Water sports centre offers jet skiing, kitesurfing and catamaran sailing, and excursions include night fishing and dolphin trips. A favourite is the Sunset Cruise, with canapés and champagne.
