With nearly 80 different private-island water bungalow resorts in the Maldives, it would be very easy t spend a week or more sorting and combing through all the prices, features, and guest reviews to find the one that suits you best at a decent price. Because we have spent many months sifting through this information, we're publishing our “Editor's Choice” resort recommendations to save you time finding the best resort and deal.
We also have a complete list of all of the cheap Maldives water villa resorts, but below are the six best that combine low prices, excellent features, and overwhelmingly positive guest reviews. When reading through the list of resorts below, you'll quickly notice that most of them operate on an all-inclusive basis to one degree or another, and considering that nothing is cheap in the Maldives, they represent an even better deal than you might otherwise think.
Many say Maldives is only for honeymooners, do you think it can be a good place for birthday celebrations?any exciting activities or suggestions?. thank you.
Marolyne,
It’s true that the Maldives is very popular with honeymoon couples, but I think most of the guests are people who come back every year or every few years. It’s a very addicting place. You definitely wouldn’t be the only ones celebrating a birthday.
The larger resorts tend to have more options for activities, although honestly most people (especially those who have been before) seem to be happy to relax during the day and party a bit at night. There are boat excursions daily at most resorts, and those can be fun. And there is pretty decent snorkeling below the water villas at most places, although that comes and goes with the tides. -Roger
