Your accommodation options are varied in the Maldives with nearly 170 luxury resorts enticing visitors with diverse offerings of Maldives resort packages. Hence narrowing your scope is best to capture the most appropriate ones for newlyweds whilst not compromising on the unique essentials for newlyweds which are the luxurious surroundings and solitude both of you would cherish.

Whilst all the luxury resorts offer certain facilities as a standard the setting, amenities, and exclusivity may vary. Hence you need to focus on the features you require such as a beach villa or an overwater villa. And the view from the same. An inviting terrace to enjoy the views of the limitless cobalt sea and a private pool for leisurely dips whenever it suits both of you are alluring thoughts. And perhaps one which also gives easy access to the ocean.

Considering these factors in your research helps you to narrow the number of resorts before deciding on the location.

All resort islands are spread around one of the unique 26 atolls that make up the archipelago. And for honeymooners who travel from far and wide as well as from neighbouring nations the only means of travel is by air to Velana International Airport in Male.

From this airport, visitors are transferred to the respective resorts either by speedboat (to islands which are closer to Male Island) or by seaplane (to more remote ones further away from Male Island). It is best to select a resort on a closer island to Male which can be reached by a speedboat transfer as your special stay on the resort will be longer this way as a speedboat would pick you up even if the arrival of your incoming flight is in the evening.

Many award-winning luxury resorts boast unforgettable honeymoon experiences in splendid surroundings and with luxurious amenities in their villas such as Grand Park Kodhipparu Maldives.

These packages are well worth your attention as these resorts have years of experience catering to the needs of honeymooners and are intuitive in their understanding of these special guests' needs and wants and are equipped to facilitate them.

These packages include an array of benefits for the newlyweds such as complimentary speedboat transfer both ways, a blissful couple's spa treatment, breakfast each day, a romantic dinner for two at the beach and more enticing inclusions that couples would love to try as they contain a mix of experiences a couple undoubtedly plans to savour. Some newlyweds even have add-ons if they wish to surprise one another with an extra item such as a movie experience under the stars etc.

Making these few days special for both of you is easy as Maldives has so much beauty to experience. Considering both of you want to spend time together exploring the unexplored the following ones will be ideal.

A romantic sunset cruise – Witness the glorious sunset as you celebrate love with your partner on a traditional Maldivian Dhoni which can be arranged with the resort. This cruise operated at the golden hour provides a delightful treat for your senses with vistas of colours as the sun majestically glides down to the ocean. Witnessing it from the ocean with your loved one by your side is a profound experience.

Couples Snorkelling – This can be easily arranged at the marine sports centre of the resort and is an outstanding escapade to witness the marine life beneath the cobalt blue you see each morning. Snorkelling can be experienced more often if you are at a resort with a house reef.
