Be it the most-awaited postnuptial trip or any other couple’s getaway, the Maldives is undoubtedly a wonderful destination to play host to romantic and intimate experiences. Come, explore and discover what these tropical islands have to offer you and yours for a memorable time away.
Unlike almost all other beaches that call the Maldives home, this slice of beach on Vaadhoo Island isn’t one that is meant to be enjoyed basking in the tropical sun. Instead, it comes alive once the sun bids farewell for the day. As darkness descends upon the beautiful archipelago, the bioluminescent plankton that inhabits the waters surrounding the island of Vaadhoo wash up on the golden-hued shores, turning it into what is called a “bioluminescent beach”. The breathtaking beauty of the natural phenomena is often described as a “sea of stars” and plays host to romantic evenings for many couples on the tropical islands.
The Maldives would not be the popular tourist destination it is today without its beautiful beaches. Whether you are visiting the islands for a romantic getaway or any other reason, spending time relaxing on the pristine beaches, under the shade of palm trees, and enjoying tropical drinks is a must. The soothing sound of the waves and the vibrant marine life just beneath the surface add to the enchanting experience.
For couples vacationing in the tropical islands of the Maldives, things to do and see are absolutely plentiful, but your getaway wouldn’t be complete without an intimate couples' massage. The host of elegant hotels and resorts with world-class spa and wellness facilities, including the likes of Kuda Villingili, make couples' massages one of the most looked forward to activities in the islands and rightly so. Treat yourself and yours to the immersive experience and let your body, mind and spirit wallow in rejuvenation like never before.
Why limit your beach bliss only to the sugary white sands when you can take it to the water? Treat yourself to a delightful snorkelling session, exploring what the crystal clear waters of the island nation have in store for you. Let yourself lose and hit the alluring waters around you to experience the striking coral reefs, schools of tropical fishes and other fascinating oceanic wonders that call the world underwater home.
As the sun goes down and the azure blue skies slowly fade away, savour a romantic meal under the stars while the scenic seaside sets the perfect backdrop for a memorable couples' moment. Take in the gorgeous views that stretch into the horizon and let the crashing waves serenade you — creating beautiful memories that make your island getaway in the Maldives one to be cherished for a lifetime.
