    I have stayed at the resort almost 5 days and it was delightful. You have to get the sea plane from the velena international airport and it will took around 35 minutes to this blessed destination. At the reception you will welcomed by tasty fruit juice and smile.

    Rooms were specious, clean and calm. View was amazing. I heard that this was categorized as a "Adults Resort" since its not allowed for children, which make perfect place for romance. I enjoyed the resort and food very much, i'l definitely consider to come again for sure

    Beach chic, really great rooms, the Jacuzzi beach villa is a must and you get visitors!

    Beaches are awesome, the sand bank has stylish cabanas, one of my favorite islands!

    We visited Maldives for our honeymoon, and after reading many reviews on multiple sites, we decided to spend our time at Veligandu Resort.

    The resort is located approximately 20 minutes away from the airport by seaplane. Seaplane stopped flying before sunset and hence if you are flying in late, you may need to find a stay in a hotel near the airport. Veligandu contacted us directly few hours after I made the booking via Agoda. The arrangement was smooth and directions are easy to follow.

    All the staff at the resort are really very friendly. They are constantly smiling and asking how's our day whenever we walked past them - from the receptionists to the waiters and even gardeners! They can also speak in many languages and so you do not have to fear any language barrier.

    Our room was the Water Villa with Jacuzzi facing sunset. Water Villa is highly recommended. They are cleaned twice a day and maintained regularly. The view of Indian Ocean was so pacifying, and there are many marine life around the villa. During our stay, we spotted sharks, stingray, crabs and many other beautiful fishes around us. we snorkelled daily by just stepping out of the deck. For the Jacuzzi, it may be skipped unless you like to sit in a heated pool facing the wall or ocean (without much privacy).

    We stayed with a Full Board package, with 3 meals provided daily, excluding drinks because both my wife and I do not take alcohol. Despite our friends sharing how bad the food was at other resorts, the food at Veligandu is delicious! The menu refreshed daily so you will never be bored with the food. There is an egg station in the morning, grilled fishes and 2 other live stations that change the menu daily during lunch and dinner. Since our package excludes drinks, we find ourselves only having to buy drinks during lunch and dinner because water and juices are provided for breakfast. Prices of drinks can be a little steep so I would recommend if you are a heavy drinker, go for All Inclusive package.

    Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at Veligandu and will absolutely recommend this resort to our friends!

    Velingandu is amazing!
    We stayed in one of the over water bungalows. The buffet was incredible - such a diverse range of freshly cooked foods and desserts. The beaches were picturesque. Went out on jet skis to one of the coral banks - totally worth it - we were surrounded by an overwhelming array of exotic fish. Staff were friendly. Cocktails on the house and very tasty. Fantastic holiday destination.

    We stayed in Jacuzzi water villa. And the experience was just amazing. The property is also so well managed. Lots of trees all over the place. You feel like walking through Jurrasic Park. All staffs are very friendly and helpful. They provide free snorkelling and windsurfing sessions also.

    The Jacuzzi was awesome. Very relaxing.
    We could see beautiful fishes in the sea water just under our balcony. Through stairs in the balcony you can directly go to the sea whenever you want. It's a shallow water so till long distance. So it's very safe.
    We opted for Jet ski Snorkelling. Riding jet ski over a long distance in the mid of sea was awsome. And the view in snorkelling spot was breathtaking once in a life time.

    Bottom line, it was more more more and more than what was expected. 😃

    Absolutely amazing resort! Everything about this place was exactly what my wife and I imaged it would be; the amazing views, the friendly and well-spoken staff, the stylish rooms and after dinner entertainment all helped make our honeymoon perfect.

    I especially liked that the rooms would be made up multiple times a day, the staff never let the room mini bar go empty and ensured that any sand ridden bed linen was changed regularly.

    We would 100% come back to this resort again and highly recommend it to anyone considering an amazing holiday in the Maldives. Should you visit be sure to make a booking for the sunset cruise, it's truly breathtaking and gives a chance to potentially catch a sighting of some dolphins!

    Wonderful courteous staff, an incredibly​ beautiful island, a good variety of excellent food, decent evening entertainment (not the main reason to be there) beautiful and incredible variety of fish to view while snorkeling directly from the beach, plenty of variety of drinks, both with alcohol and without and very comfortable rooms with great AC and beds. Access to a wonderful variety of water sports and easy to get to from the international airport in Male, Maldives. We had a wonderful time.

    Absolutely worth it. It's a magnificent island no doubt, but the management's attention to detail and the attitude of the staff really take it to the next level. I spent 6 nights here and it was an absolute bliss. Easily one of the best trips of my life (and I have traveled a lot). Thank you Veligandu Island staff for make it extra special for me.

    Beautiful place to get away from the busy world. Rooms are very nice and comes with 2 life jackets. Amazing spread of food, but it would repeat after a week. I would recommend 7 days is a perfect period to be on the island. Please take the all inclusive package as liquor would be free otherwise it would be expensive to buy separately

    We had such an excellent week at Veligandu on our honeymoon. I could go on and on about all the wonderful things about this place, but to make it shorter - the food is incredible for each meal of the day, the snorkeling on the house reef and on the snorkeling speed boat adventure is great (definitely recommend), we had an overwater bungalow which put us steps from exploring the ocean and the room was clean and comfortable, the spa was relaxing, and the pool area nice to hang out at. We absolutely loved our time here and will definitely be back if we find ourselves traveling to the Maldives again! Absolutely and highly recommend staying here on a trip to the Maldives.
