Angsana Velavaru, Maldives

No Comments Beach, Elite Episodes, Island, Maldives

Angsana-BirdsEye

An unspoilt island in the South Nilandhe Atoll, Angsana Velavaru brings new meaning to carefree abandon in paradise.

“Velavaru” translates as ‘Turtle Island’ in the indigenous language of Dhivehi. The picturesque island resort is a 40-minute seaplane journey from Male International Airport, and rests on the virtually untouched South Nilandhe Atoll. The dive sites are strikingly beautiful, making this one of the most sought-after destinations for marine enthusiasts in the Maldives.

The InOcean Villas at Angsana Velavaru are a standalone cluster of water villas that are not connected to an island. Delicately perched on the edge of the Indian Ocean, the villas offer a unique castaway experience, literally steps away from the vibrant marine life. Each two-storey villa comes with an outdoor deck and its own infinity pool; the Premier and Sanctuary InOcean Villas also feature an extended deck into the ocean, with a cosy sala for leisure lounging.

Angsana-Villa Angsana-Hammock

To celebrate their new partnership with Elite Resorts of Asia Pacific, Angsana Velavaru is offering inspirational Villa rates from USD750 + pn for their unique InOcean villas inclusive of breakfast for 2 (normally Villa rates are up from USD1500 + pn).
