When planning a tropical vacation or holiday, the Maldives is often at the very top of a list of possible destinations. With that, over the years, what was first viewed as a destination suitable solely for romantic couples, destination weddings or honeymoons, has now become a paradise for all types of traveling groups, including those with children under the ‘adult' age required in some overwater rooms.
Even though more children are accompanying their parents on vacations, it doesn't mean that all resorts will cater to the young travelers, especially if there are 2 or more in tow. However, with that said, there are a few standout resorts in the Maldives that do actually allow for 4 people to stay in 1 overwater room, even those who are younger than 15 years old. These resorts not only allow for more visitors in a room compared to neighboring resorts, but they also provide a wide selection of amenities and things to do, which makes for a very well rounded vacation for every member of your group or family.
We reviewed the choices here and didn’t see anything that looked affordable (cheap). We are looking for an over water room with all inclusive amenities so we can eat to much, drink to much and relax enough for 4 nights and 5 days. The issue has been finding a place in our “cheap” budget of 2300.00 for the accommodations plus about 400.00 for transportation to and from Male to the resort. Can you help?
Michael,
My top recommendation for an all-inclusive water villa in the Maldives is Meeru Island. They are one of the larger resorts and that allows them to offer very good rates and still keep a very high quality of service. The rates are different depending on the week or month you want to visit, so I’m not sure whether they fit your budget or not. If Meeru doesn’t fit your budget then you’ll probably have to settle for a resort that isn’t all-inclusive. Best of luck! -Roger
