Vacations In Beach Resorts In Maldives, Indian Ocean

The Maldives are a popular vacation destination for many who seek to sample a little exoticism. In particular, the gorgeous scenery, sea and water bungalows and excellent service make beach resorts set on the islands a favorite destination for those seeking the perfect honeymoon or romantic getaway. There are literally thousands of islands in the archipelago, each one as stunning as the next. Travelers can expect lots of sun (avoid the rainy season!), beautiful beaches and plenty of pampering. Most of the resorts are situated on the island of Kaafu, which is also the location of the capital Male, and enjoy a more relaxed, liberal atmosphere than the islands that are inhabited by locals. Guests will be able to treat themselves to relaxing spa treatments, dine in excellent restaurants and soak up the sun during their vacation in the beach resorts in the Maldives.

For tourists looking to visit these stunning islands it is possible to do it on a budget. On the island of Kaafu they can pick from loads of budget hotels and hostels. The Whiteshell Beach Inn is located right on the white sands of Maafushi Beach and offers basic budget accommodation at an excellent price. It is a great place for those who want to try their hand at water sports, which are accessible from the inn itself. On the island of Kudahuvadoo, budget travelers can stay at the Kudahuvadoo Hostel, which has great facilities, and outdoor terrace and lots of added extras to make their stay complete. Finally, on Thuludhu Island visitors can stay at the Cokes Surf Camp, which is the perfect place for those looking to sample the surf without breaking the bank.

If money is no object, then travelers will find plenty of luxury resorts and 5-star hotels in the Maldives. The South Male Atoll has some gorgeous boutique and luxury hotels to choose from. The Velassaru Resort boasts wonderful beachfront properties that open up right on to the white sands. The Taj Exotica Resort and Spa is an exclusive beach resort right on the lagoon with a splendid infinity pool and two excellent restaurants. The Adaaran Prestige is the perfect place to spend a romantic break, with gorgeous water villas offering private Jacuzzis and stunning views. Finally, the One and Only Reethi Rah is everything tourists would expect from a luxury break away - the water bungalows offer beautiful views of the Indian Ocean and enable complete relaxation and sheer luxury. The list of luxury hotels is endless, as the beach resorts in Maldives are primarily catering for those with plenty of money. Guests can expect standards to be high, food to be good and entertainment on tap.

While vacation in the Maldives many rush to the water and sample the large number of water sports on offer. Of course, scuba diving is one of the best leisure activities available, and the coral nature of the islands offers some fantastic scenery straight out of a picture book. Travelers should make sure to bring their underwater camera! Surfing is also an option in certain parts, but visitors will need to ask a local guide where to catch the best waves. They can visit the capital city of Male and pop around a few islands, but the main attraction of the Maldives is its beaches and the sheer relaxation that the resorts afford. Tourists can expect to spend a lot of time on the beach and in their self-contained resorts, and make the most of the pleasure of being away from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
