Anantara Veli Maldives Resort, a luxurious five-star adults-only retreat on Veligandu Island in South Malé Atoll, is a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, offering a romantic escape with 67 over-water and beach bungalows enveloped by pristine white sands and a turquoise lagoon.

Each bungalow exudes chic simplicity, featuring private terraces or balconies with sweeping lagoon or ocean views, perfect for spotting pufferfish and baby reef sharks below. Equipped with air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, minibars, premium tea and coffee facilities, and spacious bathrooms with organic toiletries, select accommodations include private plunge pools and direct beach access, blending modern luxury with tropical serenity.

Dining is a vibrant journey across multiple venues, with access to sister resort Anantara Dhigu's restaurants. 73 Degrees offers themed buffet nights with global flavours, while Baan Huraa serves authentic Thai cuisine over the lagoon. Origami crafts theatrical Teppanyaki and handcrafted sushi, and unique sandbank dinners feature bespoke menus curated with the chef under starlit skies. The Yellow Fin Club and Dhoni bar offer playful cocktails, smoothies, and tapas by the pool or lagoon. Balance Wellness by Anantara, with four over-water treatment suites, provides Ayurvedic therapies, Hammam rituals, aesthetic facials, and meditation, complemented by a steam room, sauna, and hot and cold plunge pools. Guests can surf world-class waves, dive vibrant reefs, or enjoy water sports like freediving, with Tropicsurf offering expert coaching. Outdoor tennis courts and a fitness centre cater to active guests.

A 35-minute speedboat ride from Malé International Airport, Anantara Veli Maldives Resort is steps from Anantara Dhigu and a short pontoon ride from Gulhifushi island, offering seamless access to the Maldives' pristine beauty for an unforgettable romantic retreat.
