From windswept secluded beaches to intimate dining under the stars, romance is certainly in the air in Maldives! Here are some things couples can look forward to doing here.
There is nothing quite like getting a massage than to help you relax when on holiday and in the Maldives you can enjoy this experience with your partner. The ideal way to unwind be it within a soothing spa or right outside by the ocean, such pampering is well worth enjoying together. Many Maldives honeymoon resorts feature special spa treatments for couples and have separate rooms as well so you can enjoy that extra bit of privacy.
If you are heading to the Maldives with that special someone, splurge and book a luxurious bungalow by the beach or stylish villa perched right above the waters of a lagoon by the sea. Available at resorts such as Dhigali Maldives, these types of accommodation options come with fantastic views which are perfect for setting that romantic mood, especially at sunset. Added features like a terrace overlooking the ocean or a private plunge pool make such holiday abodes the ideal choice for couples.
One of the most romantic things you can do in the Maldives as a couple is to take a sunset cruise. Be it on a traditional local boat known as a dhoni or on a luxury yacht, such cruises offer the perfect escape on the waves; of course, not forgetting it also provides an ideal vantage point to take in the breathtaking beauty of a truly amazing sunset. Some cruises also include champagne or onboard dinner as well. Tip; if you are looking for a place to "pop the question", a sunset cruise would be a good option!
What's romance without a little adventure?! Couples looking to do fun activities together can plan to try some snorkelling in Maldives. Since no experience is required for this water sport, you and your partner can easily take to the water and witness the enchanting world beneath the waves. This shared experience is bound to be one of the most memorable things you do here amidst the sight of all manner of colourful corals and marvellous marine life.
Be it on a sheltered beach area or on a luxury yacht sailing to the horizon, the Maldives offers some truly spellbinding backdrops in which to share a romantic meal together. Many resorts will have special decor and setups for the couple, while for that extra sense of intimate seclusion see if they arrange dinner on a private sandbank.
Sometimes it's the simple things that couples can do together that become the most unforgettable. When in the Maldives, make it a point to enjoy a beach walk during sunset, taking in the magical sight in the distant horizon, hand in hand with that one special person who completes you.
