Immerse yourself in luxury accomodation
What words would you think of if we asked you to describe the Maldives? Well if you're like us, then luxury, exclusivity and paradise are a just a few words which come to mind if someone mentioned this beautiful country - and the hotel's on this list are exactly what you'd expect. There are currently 1272 tourist facilities in the Maldives, which include 14 hotels, 178 resorts, 918 guest houses and 162 safari stays. We've decided to compile a list together of the best hotels/ resorts in the Maldives - if budget wasn't a factor.
The Maldives is a small country which lies in South Asia, with a population of around 521,000. The worlds flattest country is home to distinctive white beaches, a large amount of marine life and huge amount of white sharks - the most amount in the world! If you like coconuts, then this is a place you must visit as the coconut tree is the country's national tree, with them dotted everywhere in the country. Don't forget that the Maldives has tropical monsoon climate, the winter monsoon season being from November to March, and then the summer monsoon season being from June to August - making April, May, September and October the best months to travel to the Maldives if you're visiting for some great weather.
Did you know the Maldives is actually slowly sinking - so what are you waiting for...book your visit here now!
