11 Cheapest Maldives All-Inclusive Water Villa Resorts

It's hard to imagine a better combination than that of a beautiful Maldives holiday in a water villa with the freedom of knowing that everything you want is already paid for. Maldives accommodation prices are high, but the best value all inclusive resorts can actually be fantastic deals, especially if you plan on having a few drinks during your stay.

Luckily, there is a large selection of overwater resorts in the Maldives that offer all-inclusive options, and quite a few that only operate as an all-inclusive resort. There are also many affordable resorts that offer full-board and half-board, and those might be better options for certain visitors. We've already compiled a list of the best Maldives all-inclusive water-villa resorts, and many of those are cheap as well.

Cheapest

Many of us, when shopping for something like this, tend to start with the cheapest thing before going up in prices. This tends to be the same when looking at resort vacations. For that reason we’ve compiled TWO LISTS BELOW:

It’s a good idea to browse through both lists as the cheapest all-inclusive resorts tend to also offer half-board and breakfast-only options.

Also, you’ll want to note that there are three similar classifications for these resorts and it’s important to choose the one that suits your vacation style the best. In almost all cases, you’ll find that most non-motorized activities and water sports are included in each plan, even those that are breakfast-only. This means that the “all-inclusive” options are generally about meals and drinks.

Half-board – Breakfast and dinner included, but not alcohol
Full-board – Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included, but no alcohol
All-inclusive – All meals included and non-premium alcohol included

Choosing the best option for you

Needless to say, when alcohol in “unlimited” quantities is included the price does notably go up. If you are not a drinker or even if you prefer to stick to less than 3 drinks per day you will probably save money choosing a full-board plan and then purchasing the drinks yourself. As lunch is relatively cheap, you might be out on a dive boat or other excursion that includes lunch, the cheapest option of all for light drinkers is the half-board.
