Southwest of India, you will find the endless teal blue waters that make up the 26 Atolls of the Maldives. The Maldives offers incredible luxury and exclusivity that is unlike any other destination in the world. It is no surprise that the Maldives is known for being one of the world’s best honeymoon destinations, with its expansive, private bungalows perched above the waters edge or dotting the white sand. Hotel development has expanded significantly in recent years, providing luxury experiences for all price ranges.
Imagine a paradise free from boating traffic and other people, a paradise completely your own with nothing but the sound of the water slowly lapping against the shore and the sounds of birds exploring their private little haven. Welcome to @comomaalifushi

Happy Sunday, friends ❤️
Feeling nostalgic for one of the most beautiful sandbars in the world at @fushifaru. Talk about a gorgeous way to spend the day. You can book an excursion to the sandbar and it’s completely private - not a soul around! Who would you take with you?

This summer BLEW by and I’m so grateful we got to spend some of it in the beautiful Maldives ❤️. There is so much diversity in options, there really is the perfect property for everyone based on your budget and what you want out of a vacation. We loved all four properties we stayed at on this trip and they all felt so different from each other. The style at @patinamaldives, the private island at @fushifaru, the beautiful villas at @comomaalifushi and the modern, fun vibes at @avanimaldives all made for the perfect trip ❤️. DM me if you need help planning your next Maldives getaway

Private seafood dinner on the beach? Don’t mind if we do ❤️
@avanimaldives was such a great surprise for us on our last trip. It’s a new hotel in Baa Atoll that brings a young, fun energy with an incredible house reef and delicious dining options. We absolutely loved the resort and the energy so here are our tips if you’re considering it:
- book the premium all inclusive rate as it’s the most comprehensive. Prices are very high for food and drinks otherwise
- get ready to snorkel: it’s incredible. The house reef is 🔥
- book the overwater or overwater pool villa. The views are incredible
DM us for exclusive rates that beat anything you see online ❤️

@comomaalifushi was a dream destination. Set in the remote Thaa Atoll, COMO is the only resort property in this vast atoll south in the Maldives. Perched on a beautiful, lush natural island, they have the distinct advantage of looking at a spectacular uninhabited island that guests can access via kayak or private picnic. Suite-style villas, large private infinity pools and direct access to the calm lagoon make this a great destination to add to your list. Be sure to DM us for exclusive rates and perks ❤️

Reminiscing about our final night at the incredible @patinamaldives ❤️. On our last night on property, we were supposed to have dinner at their very well known restaurant, Helios. The weather had other plans though, but Patina literally brought the restaurant to our villa. We had the most romantic evening with rain pattering on the roof and delicious food served just the way the restaurant would serve it in the privacy of our villa ❤️. The best part of patina is the bespoke service and this was the prime example of that.

@fushifaru was one of the most breathtaking islands we have experienced in the Maldives, with sand so soft that it blended completely seamlessly into the crystal teal waters. The sandbar next to it is one of the longest in the Maldives and is a MUST do while on property. I can promise you, this dream is REAL! It’s only been a few days and I’m already looking forward to seeing it again ❤️.

Learn Everything You Need to Know Before You Book—Resorts, Transfers, Costs, and More.
The Maldives isn’t like any other beach destination—this 35-page guide reveals the key details travelers wish they knew before they booked.
The Maldives is unlike anywhere else in the world for a number of reasons. It’s important to consider all the costs that go into your trip to avoid trouble along the way.
Of course, there are the international flights and standard hotel charges- but it doesn’t end there. As you look up room rates and hotels online, we encourage you to look into the cost of the transfers, before committing to a particular property. It’s common to see rates from $100-250 USD for boat transfers per person and anywhere from $450-600 USD for flight transfers per person.
Once on property, it is unlikely that you will be traveling anywhere for any meals. Most properties offer all-day dining at a number of restaurants, so we encourage you to look at restaurant and bar prices to ensure they align with your budget. Many properties offer meal plans that may be a good option for your vacation. The common packages are:
Breakfast: This rate only includes breakfast for two
Half-Board: Includes breakfast & dinner as well as soft drinks (and 90% of the time, water)
Full-Board: Includes breakfast, lunch & dinner as well as soft drinks (and 90% of the time, water)
All-inclusive: Includes all meals, snacks and alcoholic beverages.
If you are considering meal plans, be sure to look at the terms & conditions to ensure you have access to the restaurants onsite that you are looking for. It is common to be allowed into only 1 or 2 restaurants, even thought they may have 4 or 5. We recommend finding hotels that allow you to try a variety of restaurants, particularly if you are staying for more than a few days.
Suggested daily budget – What you won’t expect from the Maldives is that you can find accommodations ranging across any budget. There are beautiful little guest houses for around $100 USD, all the way up to $1,000+ USD. Pro Tip: look for all-inclusive packages for a hassle free vacation.
While there is no bad time to go to the Maldives, the best time to visit is between November and April. High season falls between December and March, resulting in higher prices but optimal weather. Monsoon season runs from May to October, peaking around June. The northern atolls have highest rainfall May-Nov; the southern atolls from Nov-Mar.
Check out some of our favorite Maldives resorts and what we like and don’t like about each of them.
Planning a trip to the Maldives can be incredibly overwhelming. With hundreds of hotels and resorts spread across hundreds of islands, where do you even start? Our first recommendation is to set a budget for yourself. Consider what you’re willing to pay per night for your trip (and be sure to include a transfer cost of $250-800 per person). This will automatically give you a great sense of the options available to you.
Next, if you plan to stay at multiple resorts, we recommend properties that use the same seaplane company or are within boating distance to minimize transfer times.
Be sure to reach out to us via email if you need help starting to plan your Maldives trip! We have amazing partnerships with brands in the Maldives and around the world that provide additional perks and benefits for booking.
