What an enchanting 4-day, 3-night honeymoon at the Anatara Veli Maldives Resort! We were greeted with music, fresh coconut, and smiles, setting the tone for our magical stay. Our host, Fathi, deserves special applause for his exceptional service. From handling reservations to explaining resort services, he was a gem. We delighted in a half-board package that covered both breakfast and dinner. The perks weren't just limited to Veli; we could enjoy meals at half of the Anatara restaurants at no extra charge, even those on the neighboring Anatara Dhigu island. For the remaining restaurants, we had a credit of 60USD per person at our disposal. Most of our first four days were spent at Veli, soaking in the charm of our Superior Overwater villa. Spotless, spacious, and with a breathtaking view, our villa was an oasis. Clear water with schools of fish swimming right under the villa was a sight to behold. Fun fact: You can snorkel under your villa, and if you're lucky, spot small reef sharks! Complimentary daily activities by the hotel added an extra touch of fun. Our favorite was the 8am yoga class. Doing yoga every morning to the soundtrack of nature was simply divine. Post-yoga, my husband and I looked forward to breakfast at the charming Cumin restaurant. We loved it so much; we returned there for breakfast even after moving to Dhigu. The Thai Restaurant at Veli is a must-visit. The mid-sea location with clear waters and romantic lighting makes dining there a sensory delight. For tapas and shisha, Dhoni is the place to be. The mint and tropical fruit flavored shisha is the best I've ever had. We also joined the ray snorkeling trip. Swimming alongside nurse sharks and ray fish was surreal. Our coach was super friendly and shot great GoPro videos for us. Our Veli experience was nothing short of amazing. More on our time at Dhigu in the next review. :)
