This resort is absolutely amazing, I highly recommend this experience to anyone considering staying here. The general vibe of the resort is just so relaxed and it is absolutely stunning. The staff were amazing, we travelled with a baby and they made a fuss of her everywhere we went. The General Manager is exceptional and goes out of his way to welcome you and speak to you on a regular basis. We absolutely loved our over water villa, it was an amazing experience for us, the room was beautiful and spacious with steps straight into the sea. The island is beautiful and we loved the different restaurants offering different experiences. Another stand out for me was the Spa, beautiful facilities and so relaxing.

The ease of access from the airport, the design of the resort, exceptional staff and fantastic cuisine

Everything, the location was perfect, the room and the facilities were all clean, up to date and modern, the staff were so accommodating and friendly and the food was delicious

Everything!!!! My wife and I came for a honeymoon and we got a bottle of champagne, gift vouchers for tapas restaurant and the spa. Rooms were well designed, very clean and good facilities, including flip flops, a life jacket and there was supposed to be an electric iron wasn’t there but i didn’t bother as I came with mine. Food was fantastic - not only tasted nice but you could tell the high quality ingredients used. staff were generally polite. There was always some activity in the evening such as movie night or the live music.

staff is an asset to this place. any resort or hotel is made special to the guests by the staff and staff at velassaru are very professional, very helpful, kind and make every effort to make sure your stay is enjoyable. staff at the reception, staff at the restraunts( at breakfast or dinner restraunts) staff water sports staff at immersion staff - room service staff- swimming pool cleaning staff at photography. everyone who we interacted were very professional and helpful.

Everything was amazing. Resort, room, friendly staff, food, beach, activities, value for money, cleanliness, wifi. Everything top! We will definitely be back, it’s a paradise!

The beach villas were great. A few steps from the beach. The resort was spotless and well maintained. The staff were really nice. We had an amazing holiday.

A true paradise on earth! We stayed 3 nights in a deluxe villa and 3 nights in a water bungalow with pool. Both of them were very spacious and comfortable. We loved the open bathroom of the deluxe villa, but the view of the water bungalow is wonderful. We were on HB - breakfast and dinner buffee is totally amazing, it has a huge variety and tastes like real restaurant food. You can have whatever fresh juice from the live fruit station and everything else you can imagine. The beach is super nice and there is so much space you hardly see any other guests. We also visited the SPA and had a really good full body massage. Snorkeling trip with sharks was also good, but you can often see the sharks, other fish and turtles also on the beach. It is easy to reach the resort by a 25 minute boat ride, which is a huge bonus. Would definitely go again!

close to airport so ideal for sensitive travellers only 25mins speed boat ride (no sea plane to worry about)

Staff were friendly and very attentive The facilities and location was fantastic Food was amazing House keeping were exceptional
