The service level here is at the top range. I really appreciate the friendliness and the smiles of all staff on the island. And the arrangements of welcoming, response to any requests, etc. are all perfect. I never tried a stay with 2 house keeping per day which is really new to me. Really appreciated.

I stayed in a water house for three nights. I have been to many beaches, so I think it is more rare to stay in a sand house than a water house. As the name suggests, the water house is on the water. The room is very spacious and the flow is very reasonable. The balcony, bathroom and room are interconnected, which makes it convenient to go directly into the water from the balcony and then go to the bathroom to wash. There are really two cleanings every day. The bathroom can also open the French window to see underwater. Of course, you can also open the balcony door and lie in the room to see the lagoon.

The room is more than enough for two people, especially the bathroom, which is very bright and spacious, with a reasonable layout so you can take a shower and soak up the sunshine. Open the terrace door and sit on the sofa in the room to see the beautiful sea view. You can snorkel by going down the steps from the terrace. The water is clear. There is a piece of coral under Room 136. There are colorful fish in it. It is also common to encounter sharks. The Maldivian people are kind and friendly, and are very service-minded. The best experience is that they use their actions to encourage everyone to explore the unknown world of the sea. In particular, our butler Fathih arranged our activities clearly. Every activity is clearly priced. Although water activities are expensive, they are definitely worth it! The best thing is that you can explore another island while staying here.

The hotel is great. It takes about 30 minutes to get to Male by speedboat! The receptionist, ********* Xiao Yang, made all the arrangements. I give a big thumbs up to the little girl!

I did heaps of research before we booked our trip and Anatara Veli was the location that ticked all our boxes. It was a celebration 60th birthday and we wanted perfection ( well I did!) We were not disappointed. From arrival at the airport to departure 9 days later we had an absolutely FANDABYYDOZY time. Our villa ( No 182) was idyllic and returning after dinner each night, to lay in the hammock and count the stars with the ocean lapping beneath us, was absolute heaven! The staff were all very friendly, polite and accommodating and Hameez ( our villa host) was Mr Magic Man. Not at all intrusive but always on hand when needed. Making all our reservations, helping me to purchase the bathroom body lotion, arranging birthday treats etc We were delighted when he happened to appear on the boardwalk while we were snorkelling and he heard our shouts of glee and then took some piccies and sent them to us - were were so thrilled as we didn't want to take our phones into the water!Naeem our room boy was most lovely too and I really enjoyed coming back to his leaf messages - so thoughtful. All meals were delicious ( we ate in Cumin, Dhoni and Baan Huraa) and my husband enjoyed the Indian breakfast option. All staff were a joy to meet and chat with, nothing was ever too much trouble for them to help you, The drinks package was brilliant (with some great wineS and plenty of spirits choice) Our spa treatments were utterly divine (Thai massage and Couples Sunset massage) and our sunset dolphin cruise was fun and thrilling (the Captain definitely knew how to get the dolphins to come out and play). I would highly recommend picnic island for snorkelling and some fun casual chilled eating/drinking. The lifejackets were a great help and made me feel very secure/safe. My husband treated me to a surprise jewellery purchase (whoop whoop) and he said Faahik the shop manager was extremely helpful and professional throughout all his questions. The cocktail evening invite, including complimentary wraps, was a pleasant surprise, as was the Easter gift box and birthday bed decoration (and cake/fizz). We wouldn't hesitate to HIGHLY RECOMMEND Anatara Veli to anyone looking for a special treat.occasion holiday. Roll on my 70th, we would definitely come back!
