Another week, another trip for Jo! Never one to miss out, she was one of the first UK tour operators to visit RAAYA by Atmosphere. This is the latest addition to the Tropic Breeze portfolio in the Maldives, located in the Raa Atoll, a stunning 45-minute seaplane transfer from Male International Airport.
The island is chic and contemporary while maintaining the natural beauty discovered by Seb, a castaway artist who found safety on the island when he arrived here in 1954. Jo loved her stay on the island and found the mix of the Robinson Crusoe-esque charm combined with all of the benefits of a world class All Inclusive escape the perfect balance for a Maldives holiday.
Located in the centre of it’s own lagoon in the South Nilhandhe Atoll, Angsana Velavaru is just 40 minutes by seaplane from Male and has an incredible amount to offer. The island boasts some of the most impressive white sand beaches in the Maldives as well as a spectacular house reef with 30 amazing dive spots.
At Tropic Breeze we love that the resort features a real mixture of traditional Maldivian architecture with a modern twist that gives the island a character all of its own. Beachfront Villas, dotted along the palm fringed sands, are bright and colourful with thatched roofs while the InOcean Villas, set over the lagoon, are much more contemporary in style boasting clean lines and glass walls.
