About this accommodation
Veligandu Maldives Resort Island is a well-regarded adults-oriented retreat on a 9-hectare island in Rasdhoo Atoll, reached by a 20-minute seaplane transfer from Malé — one of the shortest seaplane hops in the country. The resort operates 100 villas spanning Beach Villas, Jacuzzi Beach Villas, Water Villas, Jacuzzi Water Villas and Sunset Jacuzzi Water Villas, with water-villa categories restricted to guests aged 12 and above. Four restaurants, two beach bars and a poolside lounge provide extensive variety, with meal plans ranging from Bed and Breakfast through Half Board, Full Board and an All Inclusive Dine-Around package that covers à la carte venues plus savings on watersports and diving. Veligandu is a distinctive destination for divers: the house reef feeds into 18 surrounding dive sites, including Hammerhead Point, one of the few reliably documented hammerhead shark encounters in the Indian Ocean. Rated 4.9 from 881 guest reviews, the resort pairs a short transfer, a strong dive programme and a romantic adults-focused atmosphere that couples return to repeatedly.
