Maldives has always been one of the best sites for rest, relaxation and rejuvenation. The name Maldives brings images of pristine white sands and clear blue water mixed with golden rays of sunshine dazzling the entire scene. In the minds of many, Maldives will always be a holiday destination, but that mindset is about to change. This island paradise can be the perfect destination for your next business trip. Who says tropical beauty is for only those on vacation? Prepare to embark on a journey to unlock the secrets of the sweet spot between business and pleasure.
When planning the ideal business trip, your accommodation can play a very significant role in its success or failure. One of the best options available would be, booking a water suite in the Maldives. There are many suites to choose from and Velifushi Maldives by Cinnamon is one of them. It is an ideal suite that caters to the needs of every businessman. They offer a great blend of leisure activities while on your important business trip, while also offering state-of-the-art conference rooms as well as high-speed internet which is key to conducting a successful meeting. The calling of the ocean provides a tranquil environment to help boost productivity as well as enhance focus during the long hours of preparation. The suites also offer some of the most breathtaking views that help you destress and concentrate on the work at hand.
Something you need to always be conscious about is the time spent on various activities. While it is tempting to finish off a small portion of the work and then get in on some touristy things, it might not be the most productive thing to do. It would be a much better plan to allocate a fixed number of hours for various work-related tasks. Having a schedule to keep you on track would be the most efficient way to ensure that the planned trip moves forward as planned. If the business is to do with a local company, it is also interesting to note that their week starts on Sunday and finishes on Thursday and the actual weekend is on Friday and Saturday, as opposed to what everyone else is used to.
One main advantage of having a business trip in such a scenic location is the ability to relax and rejuvenate amidst the natural beauty that the Maldives offers. After a heavy day of working, you can indulge in the amazing treats the island has to offer its visitors. Sunset cruises, snorkelling and even diving are some of the activities that guest can enjoy. Visitors are also encouraged to take time and explore the diverse marine life that Maldives has to offer.
For many Maldivians, approximately 45% of the workforce consists of non-natives. This provides an excellent opportunity for you to introduce your business to the Maldives. You can take the opportunity to turn your business trip into a place of networking and forming new connections. Networking over flavourful Maldivian cuisine can be an experience that will create a positive note in any prospective business partners.
After a successful business trip, why not make it even more memorable by extending your stay? Take a few extra days off to enjoy that well-deserved vacation. Some of the other activities you can try include, spa treatments, coral reef exploring as well as solo retreats, where you can make a trip into self-discovery. The possibilities at the end of the day are endless.
The take-home message is that the Maldives is not for just the honeymooners and the vacationers, it's for the business people as well. By choosing the correct place to stay and planning your schedule, one can get the best of both the world of business and pleasure.
