Das Velassaru ist ein gutes Ressort. Auf einer traumhaften Insel mit Strand und Ambiente wie im Katalog - so ziemlich atemberaubend. Auch die relative kurze Distanz zu Male/Flughafen ist super, vorallem mit Baby. Aber leider ist damit der Ausblick auch etwas beschränkt. Wer Abgeschiedenheit sucht (rundherum bis zum Horizont nur Meer) ist hier sicher falsch. Entweder man blickt auf Male (auch sehr hübsch) oder auf eine der anderen Inseln. Die brennende Müllinsel im Westen ist eher nicht so Katalog tauglich. Leider ist die Sauberkeit in den Bungalos unterdurchschnittlich - auch nach Nachfragen oder bitten erneut zu putzen ist es mangelhaft. Auch der Sand hat diverse Littering Spuren, obwohl er täglich gerächt wird (was ihn super fluffig macht). Obwohl das Personal imens Freundlich ist und sich grösste Mühe gibt, geht 1/3 der Bestellungen ins Nirvana. Auch in Bezug auf die extra Meile macht das Resort keinen guten Eindruck. Events werden abgesagt (ohne Mitteilung, man erfährt es erst wenn man dort steht oder ein paar Mal nachfragt), Alternativen werden praktisch keine geboten. Das Essen war gut und sehr Abwechslungsreich.

Wirklich alles top. V.a. die Strand-Villas (ohne Pool) sind von der Lage (Meer, Bar, Aussicht, Ruhe) sensationell. So 210. 212, 214 und 216. Danke für den tollen Urlaub.

Gut gelegen in 10m am Strand

Der Aufenthalt war Top der Service so gut man muss nicht selber machen , Geld braucht man überhaup nicht mit zu nehmen ausser die kleinen Scheine für s Trinkgeld . Ob man was kauft oder eine Aktivität ausübt man braut nur die Zimmer numer zu geben und scho ist es erledigt . Die bezahlung findet am schluss kurz vor der Abreisse statt.
