Maldives Holidays

About Maldives

The Maldives is a chain of 1,200 coral islands south-west of Sri Lanka. Each resort sits on its own private island, accessed by speedboat or seaplane from Malé. Resort categories range from value-conscious 4-star (Adaaran, Sun Island) to ultra-luxury 5-star (Soneva, Cheval Blanc, One&Only).

Honeymooners and divers form the bulk of Maldives travellers - overwater villas with private plunge pools and glass floors are the iconic stay, and the diving and snorkelling is consistently rated among the world's best. The downside: Maldives resorts are small and isolated, so plan for 7+ nights to make the long flight worthwhile.

Best Time to Visit

November to April (dry season). May to October is the wet season - cheaper but more rain.

How to Get There

Velana International Airport (MLE), Malé - connection via Doha (Qatar), Dubai (Emirates), Addis Ababa (Ethiopian) or Mauritius from South Africa.
