Angsana Velavaru is 40 minutes by seaplane from Velana, in Dhaalu Atoll. The unusual thing about it is that the overwater villas are not attached to the island. The InOcean villas sit out on the reef, apart from everything, with the drop-off a short swim from the deck.
That is the decision this page really turns on. Snorkellers book InOcean. Everyone else is on the beach, where the entry is sand rather than coral, and the resort runs a boat out to the reef once a day.
What this actually costs
Every price is the whole villa for two, with the return seaplane and every Maldivian tax already inside. Indian TCS is added separately on the total invoice value.
The second dropdown carries three things at once: the meal plan, the number of nights and the travel dates. Half board is breakfast and either lunch or dinner. All inclusive dine adds the third meal, afternoon tea, and free-flow drinks from 11:00 to 23:00 at the main restaurant and bar.
On the entry beach villa that upgrade costs about ₹37,400 for three nights. On the InOcean Pool Villa it is about ₹40,800. If you drink, it pays for itself.
Book three nights in a beach villa for travel to 30 September and the fourth is free: ₹184,400 becomes ₹186,900, and the difference is the green tax on the extra night. It applies to all three beach categories and stops on 1 October.
Every stay of three nights or more also carries a morning or sunset cruise, a thirty-minute treatment for two at the spa, a floating breakfast, and a beach dinner for honeymooners. Those are in the price, not extras.
Who this isn’t for
Snorkellers who book a beach villa. The reef that people come here for is the drop-off out by the InOcean villas, and from the beach you get one boat trip a day to it. Guests who book the water villas swim it whenever they like.
Anyone landing at Velana after 15:00. Seaplanes fly in daylight only, so a later arrival means a night in Male at your own cost. Going home, an international flight leaving before 09:00 means travelling back the previous afternoon.
Anyone travelling between 24 December and 9 January. Those dates are not on the dropdown, because both Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve carry a compulsory dinner and no check-out is allowed on 31 December. We book them, we just cost them by hand.
Before you book
These prices close on 30 September. That is the booking deadline, not the travel deadline: book by then and you can travel until 31 January 2027 at the figures on this page.
If you take an InOcean villa, a ferry runs across seventeen times a day, from 07:00 until the last boat back at 23:00. The cluster also has its own restaurant and bar out there, Azzurro, so dinner does not depend on the timetable.
For travel to 30 September, two children aged four to fifteen sharing with two adults stay and eat free. Their seaplane and green tax are still charged. From 1 October that offer stops.
The beach villas take three adults, or two adults and a child. The InOcean villas take three adults, or two adults and two children. Larger family and two-bedroom villas exist and are not on the dropdown, so we price those by hand.
Tell us your dates, who is travelling and the ages of any children, and we will cost the villa on both meal plans with the seaplane and every tax inside one figure. Message our Maldives specialists on WhatsApp or send us an enquiry. We reply within 24 hours.
