Stepping foot into the Male airport, you’ll immediately be basking in the luxury of your tropical getaway. With Velassaru Maldives’s guest services team waiting in the arrivals, ready to whisk you away to paradise, you’re immediately left feeling like a VIP. You’ll board one of their luxury air-conditioned speedboats from the airport as you journey onto the perfect tropical hideaway. 

Think picture-perfect white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters where you can see sharks and abundant marine life simply by standing on the boardwalk above it. It doesn’t take long for you to feel the Velassaru’s ‘luxury undressed’ atmosphere as you’re welcomed to the beautiful island and taken on a tour of the sights and facilities on offer. 

Watching the other guests at the resort, you can see the serenity on their faces as they indulge in all the resort offers and relax in a blissfully private environment. As I wandered barefoot along the sandy shores, cocktail in hand and stress melting away, I immediately understood why this was such a popular holiday destination.
