Velavaru Holidays

Royal Island is a paradise! This was our first time to the Maldives and didn't know what to expect. The service was top notch from the time we stepped foot on the island. Staff were available to check in all groups arriving on the boat at the same time, so there was no waiting. We were set up with a contact via WhatsApp (Mark) and he kept us up to date with what was going on at the island each day and was available to address all of our questions. The food at the buffet was good and each dinner had a different theme keeping it interesting. Our server Naseer was friendly and efficient. Finally the setting! The island is beautiful! The clearest water outside of a pool I have ever swam in. We were at the west end of the island and there was easy access to snorkelling in the lagoon. There is some damage to the reef, but we still saw so many fish, rays and a shark. We also enjoyed the Wanderlust and Hanifaru Bay snorkelling excursions. The transfers were well planned (don't panic about not having the details until the day before). And bonus, because we had a late departure they gave us late check-out without an extra charge. Overall a fabulous experience. Highly recommend.

If relaxation and simply enjoying the majesty of God is on your menu, this is the place for you. The paid actors are the beauty of the Indian Ocean that you get to marvel in from the overwater bungalows and the incredible staff. They are so sweet and attentive. Everyone. The bartenders made me "my own" cocktail and the ladies at the spa have been blessed with magical hands. Also, the all inclusive package is a really good value!

The staff was great. They were all very friendly and tried to engage with you when they can. The food option is very limited and what was available was bland. For an “all inclusive” I was under the impression all non motor water craft was included. Turns out to be pick one for 30 minutes a day.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Huvafen Fushi Resort, and it was nothing short of exceptional. A big thank you to Naadi who went above and beyond to make my birthday unforgettable. The personal touches and attention to detail truly made me feel special throughout our stay. We would also like to thank Noel and the team for their hospitality, their commitment to excellence was clearly demonstrated and visible which added to the overall wonderful experience. Great Island, Sensational Spa, Amazing Food, Exceptional Service! A big thank you to everyone.

This is a peaceful retreat. The service is incredible, they are there but don't hassle you all the time asking if everything is alright. The transfers both to and fro from the airport are seamless we have been here five times and never had a problem. The food is really good with plenty of options. The reef has many fish,despite having rain most of the week we saw turtles,sharks,ray and over a 100 different fish. The reef is easily accessible from the shore in both low and high tide.
