Honeymooning at the Velassaru



We had a fantastic 6 nights in the Maldives. Patrick snorkeled two different days and didn't let Lindsey's fear of fish get to him too much. But her attempting to snorkel with me on the first day and succumbing to her fears and then trying to jump back to shore with flippers on was definitely one of the funnier moments of the trip. She ended up falling right into the tiny fish that she was so terrified of and me standing further out in the water with my own gear on and unable to help her but instead laughing pretty loudly did not help the situation. Thanks for the laugh baby. I promise I will help more next time! Here is the link to the hotel's website because their pictures do it more justice: http://www.velassaru.com/

We also enjoyed the spa twice and attempted to wind surf on three different days but because of high winds we had to settle for jet skiing which was a great way to check out some of the closer islands. Ultimately, we spent a lot of time relaxing near the pool. The food was fantastic and the staff as friendly as I have ever seen. It was a great time and hopefully some day we will have the time to get back to the Maldives. If anyone makes it to this resort and prefers a beach hut over a water bungalo we would recommend room 217! It's a great private location on the island.
