The new Beach Front Infinity Pool Villas now feature a 15 sqm plunge pool overlooking the ocean and are all equipped with stylish facilities, light interiors and chic furnishings with Maldivian inspired decor. The refurbished villas also feature private and spacious rear gardens with circular shaped decks and stylish bathtubs. The panoramic views of the turtle-shaped villas lead to the very large front terrace where you can either laze on a sunbed or contemplate the wonderful view of the unique island lagoon.

The completion of the new 324sqm main pool at Kuredhi beach is a spectacular addition to Angsana Velavaru. Guests now have the opportunity to take in endless sunsets while sipping cocktails in the modern in pool lounges or contemporary submerged cabanas, while kids can play freely in the kid’s pool.

Angsana Velavaru Kids Club – Rangers Club is now at its new location at the main beach and features a 200sqm private area, kids pool and a separate designated entry to the new football ground.

Maldivian inspired al fresco dining concept Magoo Garden adds to the diverse dine-around experience, with the resort now offering up to 5 restaurants, offering the Mediterranean dining at overwater restaurant and bar Azzurro, lobster menus at Funa restaurant and bar, all-day dining at Kaani restaurant and pool menus at Kuredhi restaurant, bar, and gallery.

The new collaboration between Angsana Velavaru and MAC (Maldives Artist Community) further enhances the local cultural experience and brings an array of art events such as painting classes and art workshops. With MAC’s permanent art exhibition at Kuredhi bar, guests will have the opportunity to purchase the artworks and with their contribution, support the local artist community.

“We look forward to providing guests with the unmatched comfort of the new villas, inspirational dining experiences, and hospitality that comes with staying at an Angsana resort. The new-look of Velavaru features an appealing combination of chic and vibrant elements inspired by Maldivian art creating a distinctive style that is evident at every touchpoint of the Angsana brand,” Mourad Essafi, General Manager of Angsana Velavaru said.
