Felidhu Atoll hotel rooms a the Independent

"My only regret about booing this hotel was not booking for longer. This was a bolt on for us after a longer trip and everything about it was perfect. The water bungalow was spacious and comfortable. The main buffet restaurant was hugely varied, catering for vegetarians and vegans well, with everything labelled for all dietary requirements. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and happy! We booked two snorkel trips, one with sharks and a free one to the house reef. Both were excellent. The speedboat transfer was efficient and the Holiday Inn desk was easy to find at Male airport. Everything was priced in us$ but by the time service charge and green tax was added it equated roughly to gbp and drinks were a bit pricey - £6 for a Fanta £17 for a cocktail. However they were probably the best Pina colada’s I’ve ever had so worth it! You could walk the perimeter of the island in about 15 minutes but they had a good buggy service which we didn’t bother with as walking enabled us to appreciate the birds, iguanas and hermit crabs that we saw all the time. There were a couple of beaches which were stunning. The pool was huge with varying areas and depths. There was entertainment two of the three nights we stayed which we enjoyed but we also loved watching the fish or the stars from the hammock on our balcony. Some elements of the resort are a little tired but we felt that was such a triviality compared with how wonderful everything else was. We loved every minute. "

"Amazing 10 days with fabulous staff "

"We had the most awesome time at the incredible island hotel. Staff were attentive and polite and went out of their way to help. Food was great, especially the fish, but the most amazing experience was snorkelling and scuba diving in the surrounding oceans. After 30 years diving some of the best in the world so make sure you spend time with Nicole and the team at the in-house dive centre!! We stayed in both water bungalow and then beach room - both awesome "

"Veli is an amazing resort to visit. I cannot say enough about the staff at Veli. They were all so attentive to our needs and did everything in their capabilities to keep us happy. I really appreciated the management cocktail party because it gave us a chance to meet everyone who makes Veli such a wonderful experience. Loved Rifau, Prem, Ruth, and all the others who made our experience possible. "

"I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for the wonderful experience we had at your beautiful island resort during our anniversary celebration. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning surroundings, including the beautiful water and the luxurious new villas. The complimentary chocolate, bottle of wine, and free photo shoot were delightful touches that made our stay even more special. We were fortunate enough to witness the vibrant marine life, including sharks, a large stingray, and a variety of fishes during our snorkeling adventures. The overwater villas were remarkable, allowing us to jump right into the water and snorkel every day, which added to the overall enjoyment of our stay. The buffet spread was impressive, offering a wide variety of delicious options. I would also like to commend your amazing staff, particularly Mr. Nasir from the restaurant, who greeted us with a contagious smile that truly warmed our hearts. We look forward to returning to your resort for another unforgettable experience!"
