Day 2 officially kicked off our honeymoon!!
There are 1,192 islands in the Maldives, 80 of those with tourist resorts. Meaning there are at least 80 resorts we could choose from!! We opted for a 6 days 5 nights honeymoon… with the help from the online reviews, we nailed down our choices from 3 to 1.
Our final pick was the Angsana Resort @ the Velavaru Island! Just look at this amazing island where we called home for the next 4 nights in the Maldives! We wanted to get the full experience of staying on this island, so we picked 2 nights @ the Land Villa with jet pool and 2 nights @ the In-Ocean Villa with our own infinity pool. A very smart choice indeed! 🙂
Velavaru Island is also known as the “Turtle Island”. As we were told by our snorkeling guide, there were lots of turtles that came to this island to lay their eggs back in the day. They still do nowadays, just not as much.
Our Land Villa for the first 2 nights~
We walked into our Villa with very relaxing & soothing music playing in the background welcoming us, topped off with a nice turndown service. They also gave us some small gifts for each day we stayed, a fruit plate & a bottle of wine for us to kick back and relax 🙂
Direct access to the ocean & sand
A cute outdoor jet pool & rain shower head ~ yup everything is outdoor, restroom included! 😀 It felt like you were in the jungle!
After a round of touring the island, we grabbed a quick bite and chilled on the sand~

We ended our 1st night with a casual dinner and a drum & dance show performed by the local islanders.
The drink in my hand is called the “Blue Maldives” OMG it was sooOooooo good!
you can’t go without fish for any meal here on the island!
more to come on Day 3 🙂
