About the Water Villa
Perched gracefully above the clear turquoise lagoon, these Water Villas are some of the best in Maldives, an intimate over-water sanctuary where the sea becomes your companion at every turn, with floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors that reveal endless ocean views and lead onto a sun-deck with lounges and direct lagoon access. Inside, natural light floods the villa complimenting thoughtful soft tones, contemporary comforts and a plush king-sized bed. The bathroom — with a freestanding bathtub and separate shower — offers quiet moments of refreshment and ocean views deepen your sense of ease. Here, every sunrise and sunset feels like a quiet conversation between sea and sky. Whether lingering with morning coffee on your deck or slipping into the lagoon’s warmth, this is natural over-water living at its most serene.
This overwater villa accommodates up to 2 guests across 112 sqm of indoor and outdoor space, configured with king. Velassaru sits in South Malé Atoll, part of the Resortlife curated DMC roster.
