Constance Halaveli
Best Experience for: Family, All Inclusive, Diving, Spa
Dec, 2020
With one of the longest water villa jetties, luxurious facilities for families and 5-star diving, Constance Halaveli has everything you would expect from a luxury resort in the Maldives. With a shape of a curved dhoni (a traditional Maldivian boat), where white sandy beaches in combination with turquoise water, perfectly contrast with the emerald of green vegetation, the resort elegantly drifts in North Ari Atoll.
Accessible by a 35-minute seaplane flight from the main Velana International Airport the beauty of Constance Halaveli is matched by the exceptional hospitality renowned of the Constance brand. Quiet and luxurious, it has a range of attractive facilities. The resort offers beach and water villas, family villas and a presidential villa, which can include luxurious amenities of private terraces, plunge pools and more. A range of superb fine wine-and-dining options are available, as the resort features five restaurants and bars, including the Asian and European fusion cuisine of Jing and Jahaz. The hotel exudes an idyllic and tranquil atmosphere, and its very private beach and over-water villas blend Maldivian design with a contemporary flourish.

The Island
It's no wonder so many guests refer to this private island resort as “paradise.” As land creatures, on a planet where more than 70% is water we are rarely aware of the land-sea ratio. This non-existence does not belong to the Maldives, with a shortage of land in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Water, everywhere water, all tones, depths and shades of blue - a sample of the color of indigo, turquoise and sapphire. And for us, the northerners, hungry for the blue sky in the middle of winter - this is pure color therapy.
Right in the heart of this natural design, Constance Halaveli is a luxury getaway, where the sea is as blue as the sky, and the sand is white, like fluffy clouds. The only visual hindrance - villas are the color of coconut (and your budding tan). A classic barefoot-style Maldivian resort built upon an island of coconut palms latticed by sandy lanes, with one long overwater jetty. If luxury is determined by what you need, then when you need it Halaveli embodies this definition; no more and no less. It is an emerald-green island, delicious food, very private villas, a hammock, a sofa or giant bean bag chairs cleverly scattered along the shoreline, exactly where you want. Some of the excellent facilities on offer here include the Spa, 3 restaurants, 2 bars, a fully equipped gym, a tennis court, main swimming pool, 2 boutiques and Dive Centre (5* PADI). The hotel caters for families as much as honeymooners with some of the world’s best diving, watersports, a tennis court and kids’ club. It's your own dream, almost at full power. DOWNLOAD RESORT MAP
Wildlife is the star attraction of the island of Halaveli. Stingrays, sharks and various reef fish provide endless entertainment beneath the ocean's surface. Above the water, the local herons play along the beach; will be frozen like statues for a minute, and then gently tiptoed to the side, curiously exploring the roots of the trees or the splashing of waves at the coastline, where the schools of tiny fishes cluster into countless clouds. Children will be delighted with the ballet of colorful fish dancing around their feet.
In the resort: Pool and Beach service, 2 boutiques, courtesy lounge for early check in and late check out with Internet access, TV and library, Pharmacy & doctor available at the hotel, laundry is available 7 days a week with same day return, Photo and video services, the hotel also offer a wedding organiser.

Location
Ari Atoll is 89km in length and 30km in width and has 105 islands and is administratively divided into two parts: North Atoll Ari and South Ari Atoll. South Ari Atoll, a Protected Marine Area, remains one of the best places in the world to see whale sharks, which are spotted year-round on the outer reef, while North Ari Atoll is famous for its hammerhead sharks, although these are far more elusive and require deep diving to see. Most of the islands are home for the luxury resorts while others are uninhabited, the rest are inhabited by local residents. The main occupations of Ari Atoll are fishing, sailing, harvesting and processing of corals. Read More...
The five-pearl Constance Halaveli is almost too good to be true. Situated in the North Ari atoll and surrounded by the warm waters of the Indian Ocean, the hotel is a 25-minute flight by seaplane from Male, the capital. The Ari Atoll is particularly noted for the high quality of its diving experiences. Surrounded by a gorgeous lagoon and stunning views, Halaveli makes for a breathtaking escape. As is the norm in the Maldives, the resort takes up the entire island. Sister property Moofushi is a 30-minute boat transfer away; both resorts are part of the French-owned Constance group which also has hotels in Mauritius and Madagascar.
After arriving at Velana International Airport, guests are welcome by Constance Airport Team. If arriving after 15h30, guests can arrange a transfer with the team to be escorted to the hotel they have pre-booked on their side for their layover on Malé. If arriving before 15h30, they are taken to the seaplane (Trans Maldivian Airways) check-in counter approximately 20 meters away from arrival desk. The guests along with their luggage will be checked on the pre-booked flight to Constance Halaveli. Airport transfer time: Approx. 25 minutes scenic flight by seaplane from Malé airport.
Villas and Suites
If you give people everything they need, it's no wonder that you will not see them from dawn to dusk. And let me assure you, in Halaveli's villas that are some of the most spacious in the Maldives there is absolutely everything you can need. In fact, these villas are so comfortable that you would not want more: two sun decks, an infinity pool, easy access to the 360º aquarium, music, movies and room service are at your service at the first call. So why leave these luxurious cocoons?
Unusually the 57 entry-level rooms are the overwater villas, each 100 square-metres with a private plunge pool and deck. The 28 beach villas are extremely private and good for families: some have a master bedroom with adjoining bunk room, and the double-storey villas have a second-level bedroom with separate outdoor access suitable for older children. All come with an iMac entertainment system and a well-stocked minibar and wine cooler. The design is polished wood and thatch with architectural lines echoing the curved traditional Dhoni boat.

Constance Halaveli is small compared to many of Maldives resorts only with Beach Villas, but it increases in size with the rest Water Villas anchored along an impressive jetty, 856 meters long from the beach - definitely the longest in the Maldives. The result is a peaceful village, spacious and very private dwellings on stilts. All 86 villas breathe space and luxury, with desire without showy. In all the villas you will find: air conditioning, hair dryer, 42-inch TV with satellite channels, wifi, iPod docking station, telephone, work desk, minibar, tea and coffee making facilities and safe.
Want to wake up from sounds on the beach, or in a overwater villa? We recommend the latter, because the water villas have luxurious pools, and a chic palette of the sea-sand type. Room 90 is the most recent villa on the jetty, where no one will bother you (but be prepared for a 1 km walk for breakfast, or you can call an electric car ... maybe just order food in your room).
With bright blue features throughout, Water Villas (100 m2) open interiors that blend perfectly with the views of the lagoon. On the terrace of the ultra-comfortable upper deck, the pool of your dreams is made of black stone with a magical crystal clear sea view.
Hidden in lush greenery Beach Villas invite more to contemplation, where 8 of them are ideal for families or groups of friends of 350 m2, with a refined interior on two floors (410 m2), all with its own pool and a luxurious garden.
Family Double Storey Beach Villa easily able to accommodate a family of five. In fact they are huge. These are very well-designed villas. Downstairs there’s a central bed area with glass doors opening onto a patio area. Then there’s an open-air bathroom, complete with huge bath and shower. Upstairs there’s a second bedroom with plenty of space for three beds and another bathroom. Outside is a patio area with table and chairs, and sun loungers, as well as a plunge pool and garden area. These villas fronted directly onto the beach, with your very own section of sand complete with sun longers.
The large space between the villas ensures privacy and quiet, optimal to feel lonely in this world. Facilities, of course, a maximum, and should also be noted Ipod and Imac docks, wi-fi.

Also comes with a dedicated butler, this spacious premium villa has open-plan areas as well as providing areas of seclusion.
Dining
Three dining options and bars, including sushi bar, cover a range of international and fusion menus. Dine inside the high-ceilinged dining room or outdoors with your toes in the sand at the main buffet restaurant, Jahaz, offering diverse international cuisine and themed evenings. Especially it should be noted Jing, halfway along the jetty - a restaurant that specializes in healthy Pan-Asian dishes, the East meets the West, fusion cuisine; and barefoot Meeru in an al fresco setting with an emphasis on simple but very delicious classic grills during the evening, with a wide selection of à la carte dishes, fresh fish, seafood and meat. It is worth mentioning an extensive wine list, with wines from the old and new world.
Thanks to the quality 24-hour room service, you really can never leave your villa and your favorite pool. Lazy morning can start with ordering breakfast in the room between 6 am and 11:30; then the main menu is also available.
