Ihuru Island, with its rich verdant vegetation, flawless beaches and shimmering deep blue lagoon, is the most photographed island in the Maldives.
Here you will find the Angsana Resort & Spa, a cluster of 45 captivating luxurious thatched Beachfront Villas with private gardens and verandahs, that have been woven into the lush foliage of the island, just a few footsteps from the beach and the warm waters of the ocean.
For many, the beauty and tranquility of this island is enough, whilst
others will be tempted by the superb diving, a wide range of watersports and other leisure activities on offer, including the Angsana Spa with 'natural recipe' treatments.
Accommodation Taking an inspirational approach to resort living, Angsana Resort & Spa Ihuru combines a minimalist modern design with vivid interiors of lime green,
tangerine, burgundy and yellow, presenting you with a contemporary image.
Although modern facilities are provided, utmost care is taken to ensure the resort remains environmentally friendly.
With the beach just a stone's throw away, you'll catch tantalizing glimpses of the cerulean Indian Ocean from your own verandah, taking delight in the brilliant sunset as balmy
breezes sweep the heat away. Nestled amidst lush foliage is an open-air bathroom, where you can bask in the gentle warmth of the morning sun or drink in the wondrous sight of the starry night sky while enjoying a refreshing shower.

luxurious tranquility of your private garden. Relax on the sun lounger or curl up in the Maldivian swing with an engrossing novel on lazy afternoons.
Dining Facilities At the Riveli (Riveli means a beam of light), you'll be intrigued by the marriage of Asian, Mediterranean & Maldivian flavours.
This superb restaurant will tempt
you with lavish buffets or set menus while feasting your eyes on the breathtaking view. You can sit right next to the turquoise waters on the wooden deck and gaze at the radiant sky as it changes hues with the rising and setting of the sun.

In-villa Dining Craving a quiet romantic dinner with just each other for company? Have it in the privacy of your own villa! You could order from the set menu or try the special outdoor barbecue.
Private Dining On the beach, at a sheltered
sandbank nearby or in a glass-bottom boat, . the private dining venues are limited only to your imagination, with the stunning Maldivian sunset as a dramatic backdrop.
Cooking School Have fun learning how to prepare traditional Maldivian dishes with the chef.

country, so naturally snorkeling and scuba diving are a must. When you itch for some activity, don your mask and fins and explore the continuous wonder of the blue depths.
With the coral reef only a couple of meters from the beach, you need only step out of your villa to discover the beauty that sustains this island nation.
