Halaveli Holiday Village Resort North Ari Atoll Maldives

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.

DINING

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.

RECREATION

When 99% of the country’s territory is clear blue ocean, it is hardly surprising that most sports are concentrated on or under the water. The water sports centre in Halaveli offers you the opportunity to enjoy the Maldivian waters to your heart’s content. If you want to sail the waters and feel the wind in your hair and the sun on your face as you cut across the azure blue sea, go for a ride on one of our catamarans.
If you are a beginner, our instructor will make sure that you get the hang of things in no time at all.
Snorkelling in Halaveli is great fun. There are daily snorkelling expeditions to excellent reefs in the island’s vicinity. Local motorised boats leave from the island every morning and anchor at selected reefs for an hour or more. The beauty of Maldivian reefs is famous across the world for the profusion of colour and for the rich, exotic marine life. A snorkelling expedition provides you with the opportunity to experience this breathtaking beauty first-hand and to have close encounters with the exotic creatures that live among the corals.

In fact, on the western side of the island the outer reef is close enough that it is easy to snorkel to it right from the shore. This makes for a wonderful little glimpse into the underwater scenery on the reef as well as a look at the different kinds of marine life found in the area between the inner reef and the outer one.

Windsurfing is another excellent option for enjoying life on Halaveli. Even if you have never windsurfed before you will find the shallow lagoon an ideal arena to learn this exhilarating sport. If you are already an enthusiast, you will have some of the best rides of your life here.

All equipment, well maintained by the staff, are available for rent whenever you feel like taking part in any of the sports.

On land, the choice is limited to a game of table tennis, table-football or darts. But then there is too much going on in the island anyway for you to feel the need to go looking for other diversions.

SCUBA DIVING

Some of the best dive sites in the country are within easy reach of Halaveli.
