Velidhu Island Resort is a beautiful place for a relaxing getaway, with stunning views and a laid-back atmosphere. The staff here were consistently friendly and the beach was incredibly clean. However, the dining options could get repetitive over a longer stay, and while the beach bungalows were spacious, they faced some maintenance issues. Overall, the value for money is excellent.

I had an incredible week at Velidhu Island for my honeymoon. The location is absolutely stunning, with a beautiful beach and excellent snorkeling on the house reef. The overwater bungalow we stayed in offered a breathtaking view, clean and comfortable facilities, and the staff truly made our stay special. However, while the food was mostly good, it could have had more variety, especially in desserts. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, perfect for a romantic getaway.
