Many consider the Maldives the planet's premier honeymoon destination. It is home to lavish resorts personifying the barefoot lifestyle. A cluster of 26 coral atolls, the island nation lies near the equator south of India and stretches throughout 500 miles of the Indian Ocean. The archipelago offers breathtaking beaches, crystal-clear lagoons, and unrivaled luxury. Hundreds of resorts call the Maldives home, so how do you know which hotel would be ideal for your first trip as a married couple? I am here to help. I am revealing part 2 of my fairytale honeymoon resorts in the Maldives.
***These resorts are five stars, but there are different levels, so I will divide them into three categories to find something that fits your budget.***
Luxury Property ($400-1000 per night)
Premium Luxury ($1000-2000 per night)
Ultra Luxe ($2000+ per night)
