Location:

The island of Halaveli is located in Ari Atoll, which contains some of the best dive sites in the country. It takes 20 minutes by seaplane and a short boat ride to get to the island from Male' International Airport.

Halaveli is a particularly fine example of the beauty that islands of Maldives have been so richly endowed with. The beaches are dazzling white, the sand soft and caressing to the touch. The island is covered with thick lush tropical vegetation. An unspoilt aquamarine lagoon, shimmering in the sun, encircles the beach.

Breathtaking beauty, though, is not uncommon in the Maldives. What gives Halaveli its rare appeal is the excellent atmosphere - easy-going, relaxed and friendly. You feel at ease the moment you arrive on Halaveli. The management and staff, who regard Halaveli their home away from home, cannot be more welcoming hosts, and you cannot help but feel the good vibes from the moment you are welcomed to the island. You know right then that you have made the right choice, and before long you would be making a mental note to return soon - like so many others have done before you.

The unmatched serenity that can be enjoyed in Halaveli and the ambience that prevails at all times also form the perfect holiday for honeymooners.

If you are energetic, we have a variety of activities for you, from swimming, snorkelling and diving in the ocean, to table-tennis, catamaran sailing, windsurfing, parasailing, darts and other activities which can be enjoyed to your heart's content.

However, Halaveli is ideal for the family holiday as well, with its tranquil atmosphere, a wonderful beach for sun tanning and games on the beach, a shallow lagoon ideal for swimming or snorkelling, and a doctor on call on the island itself. Our island hopping excursions will also prove to be exciting, with trips to both inhabited and uninhabited islands, and barbecue lunches on the beach.

Accommodation:

There are 50 beachfront bungalows on Halaveli. From the outside they look Maldivian, with their conical, thatched roofs; inside, however, the décor is turn-of-the-century European. All rooms are air-conditioned and each has an IDD telephone and a mini-bar that add convenience to comfort. The bathrooms are modern and spacious, with hot and cold water.
The veranda outside each room faces the beach. Beyond the tall palm trees and thick tropical shrubbery growing in front of the room lie the beach and the beautiful lagoon - a breathtaking view right in front of your own restful beach bungalow.

Restaurant:

All meals are served at the main restaurant in Halaveli. As everywhere else in the island, the ambience makes you feel comfortable and at ease. Buffets are served for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The buffets are always generous and the food is distinctively Italian, prepared by experienced, professional chefs; the food tastes great and the friendly service adds to the enjoyment of every meal.

You find yourself establishing a rapport with your waiter after the very first meal and cannot help but appreciate the personalised service that you receive. The restaurant buzzes with lively chatter and laughter at meal times, making you want to linger behind even after you do justice to the excellent fare.

Bar:

The bar in Halaveli is the island's main centre of entertainment. Open on all sides, with a high, thatched ceiling; with soft, sandy floors and views of the beach and ocean, the bar is a welcoming place. All guests come together here after lunch for an hour of fun as the island's in-house animators put on live music shows with barroom puzzles and quizzes with a difference.
The bar comes alive in the evenings once again as live music and excited chatter permeates the air as happy guests discuss the day's events.

It is truly a pleasure to spend time here, revelling in the general bonhomie that is always present when guests gather here.
