Great location. Just a 30 minute speed boat ride from Male. Rooms are very comfortable. Appreciate the adult only experience. Easy access to their sister resort on the adjacent island via a boat that runs back and forth all day. Cumin is the best restaurant. Origami a small disappointment. Service is stellar. Special thanks to our villa host Faz, Sunday the chef and Ibrahim our server who were very kind and went above and beyond for us.

Our stay at Anantara Veli was absolutely fantastic from start to finish! The serene atmosphere, luxurious accommodations, and personalized service made it a perfect getaway.
A special mention goes to Ibrahim, our villa host, who went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our trip was seamless. His professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail truly enhanced our experience. Additionally, Amr from Aqua deserves praise for his exceptional service and friendly demeanor, making our time there even more enjoyable.
The resort’s dining options were exquisite, and the variety ensured we had something new to savor each day. We particularly enjoyed the Japanese cuisine at Origami. The overall ambiance and tranquility of the resort exceeded our expectations, offering the perfect escape for relaxation.
Thank you, Anantara Veli, for an unforgettable stay. We can’t wait to return!
