WELL, WHY EXOTIC?
BECAUSE IT'S VERY EXPENSIVE FOR INDIANS COMPARE TO OTHER ASIAN COUNTRIES !!!
Starting with my flight booking
I had dream to visit Maldives for last 15 years ... so when I decided to visit this place for my 10th Wedding anniversary ... I was very excited and booked tickets with no regrets .... Because I got 2 adults and 1 kid return ticket in Rs. 50k
I thought ; I can roll up my holiday in and around 1 lac to 1.20 as we were going there for only 4 days.
But when I go through the package deals ... then I realized it's gonna be costly trip for us !
POINTS TO NOTE AS FOLLOWS
- Most of resorts are located in individual island so we have to take at least FULL BOARD meal plan or else we have to spend extra on add on food purchase. Or else inquire for ALL INCLUSIVE PLAN
- USD universally accepted at all over the resorts and hotels๐
- You need to book your flight✈ which will land male before 3 pm (arrival)
- You should book your flight ✈ from male after 10 am if possible. (Departure)
- Sea Plane Transfer facility has time limit ⛔it closes by 4 pm(max 4:30 pm) in the eve so make sure to reach before that. also flight depends on weather conditions.
- Speed Boat๐ค Transfer is also has time limit , vary resort to resort so make sure before booking your flight
- Water sport ๐ฟis Must do in Maldives, beautiful sea creatures and under water life , but you need at least 400 USD per person for other activities to spend
- I have also visited Male City๐, fish ๐and vegetable ๐ฟMarket , monuments, met locals;
but frankly there is nothing to see in city. So Maldives for Holidays? then choose good RESORT !
- Most of Maldivian People can speak and understand English , Hindi and there own language ๐
Maldives is really man made heaven on earth and must visit place for it's White sand, Blue skies and water....
I will visit soon ... need to save money first ๐

This is such a good guide for those who are about travel in Maldives. Maldives is so safe that you easily take your family and barn till maldiverna without and thoughts of risks and safety concern. Much appreciate the guide though.
