The Maldives is famous as one of the most romantic places on earth. A turquoise lagoon with an incredibly colorful underwater world, coral sand, water villas with infinity pools, and, of course, Maldivian sunsets… However, among more than 200 resorts it may be difficult to find the most romantic one. An expert in booking exotic islands will help with this – wiotto.com, who have been specializing in the Maldives for more than 9 years. According to reviews from tourists who traveled with WIOTTO, the top 10 hotels were collected where you should definitely go with your significant other.
How to choose a romantic hotel in the Maldives
Despite all the romance of the Maldives, there are hotels there that are less attractive to lovers and just tourists looking for a beautiful place to relax. When choosing a hotel, pay attention to:
- Local and private islands. The local population lives on the local islands, and tourists are offered to stay in guesthouses or mostly three-star hotels. This is a budget vacation, but private islands are featured in advertising brochures and Instagram accounts of celebrities. Resort islands operate on the principle of “One island – one hotel”. If you are looking for romance from the picture of a bounty advertisement, then you should pay attention to resorts. The selection from WIOTTO will include the ten most romantic island hotels in the Maldives.
- Alcohol. If you can’t imagine a romantic evening without a glass of wine, you should choose resort islands, since the Maldives is a Muslim state and the sale and consumption of alcohol is prohibited on local islands, which cannot be said about private islands, where there is alcohol for every taste.
- Villa on the water. According to WIOTTO statistics, 70% of couples prefer water villas for their vacation. They are located on stilts in the lagoon. Some even have a transparent bottom, for example, in the bedroom, and you can observe the underwater world without leaving the villa. There are water villas with a pool, Jacuzzi, water slides, multiple floors and even an underwater bedroom. By the way, the Conrad and Pullman hotels offer a villa partially located under water Maamutaa. Also note that in the Maldives there are resorts where there are no water villas. For example Kurumba or Angsana Ihuru.
- Hotel for adults only. If you are looking for romance, silence and don’t want to swim in the pool with the kids, “Adults Only” hotels are perfect for you. For example, Robinson Club Maldives, Hurawalhi Island Resort or Komandoo Island Resort. Likewise, in the Maldives there are hotels aimed at families with children, and they are no less romantic. Check out Kuramathi and Kurumba.
