While the wedding is a significant event for couples on their journey of love, another highlight would be the honeymoon which should be truly memorable too! The ideal destination for such a getaway is the Maldives and these are some of the romantic things to do when here.
While private island resorts in Maldives offer the perfect setting for intimate walks on the beach, even more romantic, would be to take a sunset cruise. You will embark on an unforgettable journey out to sea and enjoy the best vantage point to witness a magical sunset as it paints the skies in fiery hues. Depending on the type of cruise, you will be served some champagne too which you can use to toast to your new life together. Some properties offer romantic catamaran sunset trips which are enchanting as well.
Popular with couples, overwater villas are an ideal accommodation choice for your honeymoon in the Maldives. Attractions abound beneath the waters below with diverse marine life to be found here or a little way out to sea. These luxurious living spaces built over a lagoon or the Indian Ocean, offer a sundeck where you can work on your tans together, catch a sunrise or sunset or step down for a romantic dip. Consider opting for an overwater villa with a private plunge pool from where you can take in spellbinding coastal vistas as well.
The revitalising power of wellness treatments is not only ideal to experience by yourself but also with your partner. Resort spas such as those at properties like Dhigali Maldives are perfect for this and provide a sublime sanctuary of healing amidst a tropical garden setting. From Thai, Balinese and warm stone massages to body scrubs and wraps, ayurvedic rituals and facial care, there is much to look forward to. Some spas even have special packages for couples which include various treatments and a glass of wine too.
While most resorts have a range of dining venues, they will also provide the option of a private dinner on the beach. Having such a meal would be a great idea for those looking to give their partner a romantic surprise on the honeymoon! Depending on the property, you will be able to customise your menu or choose from a select array of gastronomic delights. The highlight will be the chance to dine under the stars and on the shore as the waves of the Indian Ocean serenade you with their soothing songs.
Amongst the other things to do in Maldives which will add to the romance would be to have a picnic on a remote sandbank or a deserted island. This is truly unique since you can experience pure seclusion with that special someone. Resorts will organise both transport and a picnic basket to take along with you on your adventure; at a deserted island for two, you can enjoy making plans for the future, taking walks on the beach, sharing a romantic picnic and repledging your love enteral to the person who completes you.
