Angsana Velavaru reopens futsal ground, elevating active island experiences.

Angsana Velavaru recently marked the reopening of its futsal facility, a meaningful step forward in enhancing both  guest experiences and associate engagement though sport and community connec...

Angsana Velavaru has officially reopened its futsal ground, a 57-by-38-metre facility designed to bolster both guest recreation and staff wellbeing. The inauguration ceremony was led by Dhaalu Atoll Council President Ahmed Shafiu and General Manager Ahmed Zahir. Located within the pristine South Nilandhe Atoll, the resort offers an expansive private lagoon and a mix of beachfront and overwater villa accommodations.

The upgraded pitch is intended to serve as a hub for skill-building workshops and collaborative sporting events. During the launch, the resort hosted a series of friendly matches involving staff teams and representatives from the Banyan Group. This development coincides with the renovation of the adjacent watersports centre, which now includes improved changing and shower facilities to accommodate those transitioning between land-based activities and the beach. By prioritizing these recreational enhancements, the property aims to foster a stronger sense of community and active living for all visitors and employees.

The Resort

Angsana Velavaru

Dhaalu Atoll·★ 4.7

Angsana Velavaru — known as "Turtle Island" in the local Dhivehi language — is perched on an expansive private lagoon in the virtually untouched South Nilandhe Atoll in the Maldives, just 40 minutes by seaplane from Velana International Airport. The resort features 113 villas across two distinctive categories: beachfront island villas with pristine beach access, and signature InOcean Villas perched on stilts above crystal-clear waters with expansive infinity pools and double-storey rooftop terraces. Three All-Inclusive Packages are designed for different types of holidaymakers — from gourmet foodies and families to spa lovers and divers. With 30+ dive sites, a PADI Gold Palm 5-Star Dive Centre, award-winning Angsana Spa with 8 outdoor pavilions, Terra Kids Club and three distinctive restaurants, Angsana Velavaru offers the ultimate Maldivian island escape.
