Veligandu Island Resort and Spa

We had an amazing week, beyond words. The buffet is definitely a highlight: very high quality and diverse food, we looked forward to it every day. Especially the cake section, and the different cuisines! The house reef is not great but I knew that before booking - the snorkeling excursions more than make up for it, on the nurse sharks and turtle ones we were taken to some amazing reef nearby. The ocean centre staff goes above and beyond to make sure they find you that sealife. We also got to see plenty of marine life from our deck, sting rays, eagle rays, black tip sharks and jellyfish. We stayed in a sunset ocean villa and it was absolute perfection, it has a net where I spent many hours looking at the water. We tried the pool villas as well, but much preferred the original ones which involve less walking, feel closer to the water and just look gorgeous. Also loved the yoga pavilion, the gym and the massages. Spent a lot of time researching resorts and I chose Veligandu mainly because it seemed to tick most of my boxes, and it did - small size to not feel crowded and walkable everywhere, amazing food, gorgeous beach area, a range of activities and excursions, beautiful ocean villas, and reasonable price for what you get. Overall an amazing stay I will remember for the rest of my life, thank you for all the experiences!

Amazing place! Really loved this resort. Not too big, not too small - just right. Beautiful rooms, stayed in Sunset Pool Water Villa - spectacular is the word. Large, superbly designed interior and large sun deck with large pool. Food on the island was also a high point, especially the Raalhu restaurant that delivers an amazing experience from atmosphere to food to service! Also had a unique experience literally swimming with both Manta and Whale Shark - on the same excursion!

Honeymoon in Veligandu, Maldives was awesome. From the first moment we arrived on the island till the last, we enjoyed every bit of it. We were so impressed with the resort that we extended our stay by a night, and didn’t regret it one bit. From sunrise to sunset, from breakfast by the private pool to dinner by the beach, from spending the entire day indoors in the room to exploring each and every corner of the island, from expensive wines to coke at the bar, from chilling in the infinity pool to swimming with fishes in the ocean, we spared nothing that the resort could offer. We are so glad we stumbled upon this resort and created long lasting memories in it. Special shoutout to our host Faheem who was there to answer our queries any time, and many others who we interacted with throughout our stay - Sajini and her friend in Madivaru, Chef Hadi, Azim, Abdul, Pritam and a few others from Dhonveli, Awi from Thundi bar. These guys were spectacular at what they did and made our stay extremely pleasant and worthwhile.

This is a newly opened island, the island's service is very good, the facilities are very new, the scenery is very beautiful, in the dive center to experience a lifetime can not forget the scuba diving, Alisa instructor is very patient, so that the original nervousness of the underwater world I can also relax and enjoy, will come back to the Maldives!
