The place to truly get away from it all, this small and romantic island in a totally unspoilt atoll where visitors can experience the peaceful and healing qualities of the "real" Maldives as Velavaru is amongst the only 2 tourist resorts in the entire Atoll. The newly opened award winning Spa will definitely make this a perfect choice for those looking to nurture both body and mind.

Situated in an atoll which is completely new to tourists, the beauty of Velavaru and its surrounding waters are untouched and waiting to be explored. Vela in local language means turtle, and the resort has been designed to follow this theme with all rooms following the shape of the turtle.

In Velavaru you can enjoy a luxurious holiday surrounded by lively natural beauty.
