Maldives Honeymoon Package
If you were to ask a hundred newlyweds to write down their top ten paradise honeymoon destinations, you would find that the Maldives would be high-up on everybody’s list.
Situated south west of Sri Lanka in the warm, clear, tranquil waters of the Indian Ocean, and made up of more the 80 exotic islands, you can see why a Maldives honeymoon package is top of most honeymooners’ whish list.
Each of the 87 Maldivian tropical islands have been specifically developed for tourists in mind and are blessed with their own unique feel and atmosphere that are hard to find in any other honeymoon package.
You will be able to relax and enjoy a vacation of pure luxury at one of the more intimate and romantic smaller Maldivian islands or if you are feeling a little more energetic, then many of the larger Maldivian islands will have plenty of water sports to keep you entertained.
The Maldivian people are known worldwide for their hospitality and laid back attitude to life, yet a Maldives honeymoon package can be so much more than just an idyllic beach island, if you so wish.
You will find plenty of markets and cultural events to attend that are steeped with tradition and well worth experiencing. If you are looking for something a little bit different then how about a romantic cruise to watch dolphins or maybe a Champaign dinner on the beach? All are possible with a Maldives honeymoon package.
Choosing the right Maldives honeymoon package is crucial as all of the islands, with the exception of Kuramthi have just one resort per island. However, there are boats and seaplanes available between the islands that transport guests around, but with no actual dedicated ferry service so to speak linking the paradise islands together, it is important to fully understand what each of the islands has to offer before deciding on a particular Maldives honeymoon
With this in mind let’s take a closer look at some of the more popular Maldives honeymoon resorts.
Maldives Honeymoon Package – Male
Male is the capital city, but strangely is quite small, and therefore does not have its own dedicated airport. Honeymooners will first have to fly into HulHule Island and then take the short 10 minute trip by boat to reach Male where all of the other Maldive Islands are accessible from.
Male has seen rapid development over the last twenty years, possibly due to being the main gateway between all of the Maldive Islands. This now cosmopolitan town will see approximately 600,000 tourists passing through its shoes each year, as couples continue their journey onto their chosen island, either by boat or seaplane.
As the hub of the Maldives, Male is a hive for commercial trade and with local markets, teashops and sea food restaurants aplenty, you will be able to experience the true culture and way-of-life of the Maldivian people in Male than on any of the other islands.
Maldives Honeymoon Package – Makunudu Island
If you are after a truly romantic honeymoon then the Maldivian island of Makunudu will be hard to beat. Famous for it’s golden, secluded sandy beaches and palm trees this intimate spot will be the perfect haven for newlyweds who want to feel at one with nature and embrace the natural beauty of this Paradise Island.
Maldives Honeymoon Package – Cocoa Island
Voted the best luxury resort in 2010, the Cocoa Island resort, if you can afford it, will certainly be everything you imagine a honeymoon to be. Travelling via speedboat for 40 minutes from Male Atoll you will arrive at your luxurious live-on Dhoni or Doni (a Maldivian boat). However, this will be like no boat you have been on before. These floating luxury suits are spread out across the clear emerald waters on wooden stilts and are as exotic and luxurious as they come.
With its white sandy beaches and stunning clear waters Cocoa Island is a paradise honeymoon setting that has it all. From snorkeling with the abundance of marine life in the untouched coral reefs, to holistic spa and yoga sessions all day long, this Maldives honeymoon package is understandably very popular among honeymooners, but will come with a price tag that many couples simply cannot afford.
Maldives Honeymoon Package – Faafu Atoll – Rania Experience
If money is literally no object and you want to experience a Maldives honeymoon like no other, then the Rania Experience may be just be lavish enough to satisfy your needs.
If you think or barefoot living or the old, stranded on a desert island scenario, but with one massive difference; you’ll be living in complete luxury, and you start to imagine what this $10,000 a night retreat holds.
With unlimited spa treatments, yoga, fishing and enough fine dinning to match any Michelin star restaurant. If you can afford it, then the Rania Experience maybe the finest 24 hours you ever have.
Of course, there are many more Maldive islands to write about that offer similar amenities in luxurious lagoon surroundings. The question at the end of the day will be, not one of the resort or island necessarily, but one ultimately of price.
Let’s be honest, many newlyweds would give their right arm to honeymoon in the Maldives. Truth be told, if you can afford a Maldives honeymoon package, you’ll be hard-pushed to find an island resort that is anything less than complete and utter luxury.
Start packing now, you won’t be disappointed.
