About Fen Bar

Fen Bar is introduced on its page as your HQ at the heart of the island, and it is open from 11 am to midnight. It sits pool side in a palm garden, with cushioned loungers, sand underfoot, the lagoon in front and low slung daybeds for afternoon naps.

The drinks include sunset cocktails, wines, premium spirits, coolers and house infused elixirs, with shareable plates and light bites alongside. There is an energetic mix of live music, and the mood moves from relaxed to lively and back to mellow. The dress code is "barefoot is better".

In the resort’s words

Fen Bar lives in the rhythm of the island — afternoons stretching, the sky softening and music drifting just enough. Velassaru's pool bar serves refreshing drinks, cocktails and light bites through the day.

Part of the dining roster at Niva Velassaru, South Malé Atoll, this bar / pool bar runs a pool bar format · poolside setting.
