The Maldives offers a coastal getaway you dream of where secluded beaches, stunning sunsets and island adventures abound. Here are some insights into this magical destination.
Travel by Sea or Air
Before selecting from the best resorts in Maldives, keep in mind that transfers will be either via speedboat or seaplane, with the latter costing more. Consider a property that is not only easy to reach by speedboat but also offers private seaplane transfers if you wish to enjoy some inspiring bird’s-eye views.
Indulge in Pure Comfort
This Indian Ocean destination is one of the best places to indulge in a luxurious escape so make the most of it! Resorts like Naladhu Private Island Maldives provide lots of privacy as well as plush abodes with infinity pools by the ocean, 24/7 dedicated butler service, in-villa spa rituals, private island picnics and more.
Explore Underwater Worlds
Not to be missed is the chance to go snorkelling and / or scuba diving. The Maldives has over 1,000 fish species not to mention other marine creatures and colourful corals too. Consider resorts that offer the chance to go snorkelling with manta rays and whale sharks and have PADI-certified courses for diving too.
Be Respectful of the Culture
Always be respectful of the local culture; at private island resorts, you are free to wear what you want including bikinis, drink alcohol and show public displays of affection, but none of these applies to when visiting local islands. When at such islands, it is also best to wear attire that covers bare shoulders and legs.
