About

Anantara Veli is a 5-star resort with 67 rooms in Raa Atoll, built around a compact set of over-water and pool bungalow categories: Deluxe Over Water Bungalow, Superior Over Water Bungalow, Ocean Pool Bungalow and Deluxe Ocean Pool Bungalow. Rates start at $660, positioning it in the mid-to-upper range for the atoll.

The resort keeps its amenities focused rather than sprawling — a private beach, outdoor pool, spa, fitness center, tennis court, library and free Wi-Fi cover the basics, while diving and non-motorized water sports handle time in and on the water. Multiple restaurants provide the dining side of things.

With a 9.2/10 guest rating built from 380 reviews, Anantara Veli has a substantial and largely positive review base, making it a reasonably well-documented option for travellers comparing over-water bungalow stays in Raa Atoll.
