What Our Guests Say
Rated Travellers' Choice on TripAdvisor
Five-star reviews.
Very good. The food, the room facilities are very good! My children especially loved the large pool in the room, and Ikigai's Filipino chef was particularly good and also performed teppanyaki. The kids' club teachers are also very good. The receptionist's Chinese customer service Tongxin is also excellent, patient and warm!
Best holidays ever
Fantastic place. Amazing water villa with all comfort and right privacy. We had the best excursions with turtles and sharks.
Amazing place
Near airport and easy seaplane transfer. Relaxed vibe with great rooms. Stayed in 2 bedroom beach villa and daughter stayed in water villa. Great for families. Good value on the all inclusive. Will definitely come back. Staff are all lovely and very hospitable.
Worth choosing the resort for. One or two caveats on entry point or current.

Getting there
Land at Velana after 16:00 and the last transfer of the day will have gone, which means a night in Malé before you reach the island.
Transfer details last checked August 2026. We re-check yours against your actual ticket before we quote. See what your flight can reach →
