the food quality was very good in all restaurants, however, we face a challang to book for a table as the Italian and Steakhouse were fully booked, but then the team were helpful and managed to get us a table.

It was our first time traveling to Maldives, so cannot compare this hotel to others, but the whole experience was terrific! If you stay in one of the In-Ocean rooms, you are basically staying in the middle of an enormous exotic aquarium. Any time you desire, you just jump into the water and see all kinds of marine life, including turtles, stingrays, baby sharks, octopuses, and all kinds of fish! We even watched a group of dolphins swim around the reef. The room we stayed in was huge, which made us feel like we could stay in the room our entire trip without feeling the need to go out. The staff was great, but we stayed here during Ramadan, which was extra tough on them, having to fast. Also, there is a baseline difference between hospitality in the US and Maldives; having said that I think they did a decent job. The food options were good, but not particularly memorable.

Perfect place for total relaxation. Maybe a few more activities for the ‘oldies’ would be good. We loved the bingo and Kahootz but the party music wasn’t our style. Enjoyed the saxophone player and the Irish singer. During the day maybe trivia or games?

I dont recommend. Fisrt time in Riu and the last one. Food and drinks really really poor. always the same. very annoying. You are treated like a $. Beds very bad very used mattress. I asked to change but they dont change. a really bad smell in the shower. Was a really bad experience in this hotel. Avoid if you want a really good vacay. manager is very unhelpful.

2 out of the 3 restaurants - bars closed upon arrival - massively disappointing. Spoilt the whole experience and once you’ve unpacked and settled - to find this out 2 days into a 7 day trip is demoralising.
A waste if a holiday

Angsana Velavaru is magical place.
Angsana Velavaru is magical place. Since arrival everything was exceptionally good. When we arrived at the airport there was representative and she looked after us and took us to sea plane. And when you fly on sea plane you see beautiful island and different shares of water. Resort was really beautiful and clean, Food was very good. I would say must go for all inclusive . Couple of restaurants one with buffet and food was scrumptious. Resort pool was good size and room was so clean including the shower etc.
Best experience is scuba diving. Instructor Ahmad was best . Even though it was my first experience . But Ahmad was so calm and made me feel relaxed. My Mrs she backed out at the last moment just before jumping but they did not charge us for that. I am fully impressed with their exceptional services. I saw reel, Carol, touched the turtle, schools of fish, mini sharks and over the water while my mrs were waiting, she saw dolphons.
All i can say its really really amazing experience , with lots of water sports, free kayaking and i want to visit it again.

Staff were excellent, very good food. Nice, clean and well maintained property. Excellent spot for people who love snorkeling. There is a reef on the property.
A bit far from Male airport and transfer takes time.

It was a good place to spend our family vacation.
It was a good place to spend our family vacation. Clean rooms, excellent spread of food & drinks, reasonable TV channels coverage, uncrowded island beach and friendly staff.
The walkways could have some shelter added to a walk back and fort from villas - specially in the hot noon sun.
The island and hotel is amazing beautiful, its like paradise on earth. The hotel offered perfect service, very friendly polite staff. The food was excellent. Room very clean and well equipped.
We liked very much that the hotel staff took care of us from the moment we landed in Male, guided us through the transfer to the island, arranged checkin while enjoyed a drink in the bar, and same when we departed. This is a place for perfect relax, and also a big variety of entertainments. We will come back for sure!
Fantastic place people there are the secret to its uniqueness , wonderful staff especially staff at Palm Marry ,Mina, Madara, Marshal , Chef Hrter(made us a special lunch on last day which was a wonderful touch) they rise above all , especial thanks to them . Beautiful landscape ,beautiful beach , attention to cleanness and details is obvious . Most of the views around the hotel are breath taken , variety and taste of food at palm buffet restaurant is superior to food at a la cart restaurants .
I was on a solo trip wanting to zen and this was the perfect place to do that. my beach villa was quiet and right in front of the beach. I did the half board and the food was amazing . every night they had a different theme at the restaurant many options . the service from the time I landed at male to the time we left was another level . at the restaurant my host, everyone was extremely friendly and professional . there is great snorkeling around the hotel , the spa was great to. thanks all!
We enjoyed our 3 night stay in Angsana to the max! We stayed in the deluxe InOcean villa and it was magical. The hospitality is amazing and the facilities including water sports are great. We tried everything from jet skis to kayaking to paddle board. There is ease of communication between guests and staff through WhatsApp and the staff attended to every request we made. This was our first visit to Maldives and we are glad we chose Angsana. We are diffenetly coming back soon!
The staff at this in-ocean villas are all great! Laila is the kindest. But! I must say all of them go above and beyond to make our stay comfortable & memorable. One of the best hotel we’ve ever been privileged enough to stay at. We loves all of the inclusive activities that been offered by the Hotel. Really such a great holiday for us.
This was our second time there and we were pleasantly surprised of how the hotel developed. The trees have grown so much in 2 years :) We liked everything - the helpfulness of the staff, the food, the variety of music and activities. Everything was extremely clean! All personnel were wearing mask everywhere and all the time.
The hotel is amazing! From the staff to the comfort of the beds, the food, the beach, the sea, the gym, what can I say we enjoy every single moment we spent there. The hotel has several activities which we enjoyed too and even the other guests were amazing. Highly recommend this hotel! Hope to be back soon
The hotel is great for its price! The food is delicious, the ocean and the beach are amazing!! Service at the highest level! Special thanks to the bartender Supun, who makes delicious cocktails. It's nice when you come to the pool, and your favorite cocktails are already waiting for you :)
This is a super hotel, absolutely great value for the money. The beach is just perfect, cristal clear water, rich marine life. Super clean rooms, very comfortable bed and the staff is just incredible. Actually the service is a 5-star and I could go on forever with compliments!!! Thank you!
- Beautiful location
- Well managed transfers
- Wide variety of food options in breakfast and dinner buffet
A small suggestion to the hotel - include a basic swimming course, it would really make it more worthwhile for the guests who can't swim or have basic abilities in swimming
All staff are very happy to help. The hotel representative was waiting me in the airport to arrange the seaplane trip and took us to hotel waiting lounge. The food was nice and Diving center PADI was excellent. You will find a lot of activities to do in the hotel.
Beaches are pristine, rooms are clean and smelling so nice, staff is so friendly, food is yummy..
This place is the best!!! If you really want a Top notch hotel that is gonna treat you like a King/Queen.. this is the place to go😍
Food options were good. Snorkelling was convenient and good. Staff was generally friendly. Despite frustrations and problems we experienced, it was still good value for money….for the Maldives.
The hotel was good beautiful and clean staff are friendly and welcoming especially marshal the spa is amazing and most do every day , also the beach is amazing and clean .
It was a wonderful family vacation, the hotel is amazing, stuff is attentive and friendly. all was very comfortable and pleasant during the whole stay ☺️
