As the winter holidays approach, planning a trip to the Maldives becomes a priority. If you're still undecided about which island to choose, let me introduce you to Velavaru Island, also known as 'Turtle Island.' This destination offers an all-inclusive package with free meals and accommodation for children, making it a budget-friendly option for family vacations. Velavaru Island, part of the Angsana Velavaru brand under the Banyan Tree Group, is renowned for its high-quality service. The island is a six-star resort with 113 rooms, including water villas and beach villas.

Birthday and anniversary celebrations include a honeymoon cake and romantic bed decorations. Velavaru Island is situated in a vast private lagoon in the almost untouched South Nilandhe Atoll of the Maldives. Known for its turtle nesting sites, the island features powdery white sand beaches perfect for barefoot strolls, a dreamy glass chapel, a starlit pool, and a glass-bottomed canoe. The Kaani restaurant offers stunning views of the lagoon and beach, while the main pool bar serves à la carte meals and freshly made cocktails. The award-winning Angsana Spa provides soothing treatments in eight outdoor spa pavilions. Nearby, there are over 30 dive sites, and the water villas are located on a reef, offering snorkeling opportunities with coral, small sharks, turtles, and schools of fish. Activities such as windsurfing, catamaran sailing, wakeboarding, waterskiing, and canoeing are also available. #Maldives #VelavaruIsland #FamilyVacation
