Maldives, also known as the Pearls of the Indian Ocean, is an archipelago consisting of over 1200 coral islands located towards the South West of Sri Lanka on the Indian Ocean. Out of these 1200 just 202 islands are inhabited and a mere 44 have resorts for accommodating tourist. The combination of sparkling beaches, coral reefs, emerald lagoons, and an amazing collection of flora and fauna makes Maldives a paradise for tourists that are looking to spend some time alone amidst mother nature.

There are plenty of accommodation facilities to choose from the list of Maldives family resorts as there is something for every budget. If you are interested in adventure sports or are looking for sport activities during the holidays there are custom packages that you can choose from. Everything from scuba diving tours to honeymoon getaways are available at the resort.

The peak season for visiting Maldives is between December and April as the beaches are dolled up in the festive mood. Maldives is also quite expensive during this time of the year. If you are a budget traveler you need to make some enquiries before traveling to Maldives during this period.

You are more likely to receive a better deal on the packages during the off season, which also has some pretty mesmerizing views to offer. Your overall package fare depends on airfare, island transportation, hotel fare and the number of days you plan on staying. However, this is where you need to keep an eye out for exciting deals.

Some hotels might throw in free breakfast or lunch depending on the type of rooms that you have booked, while some others might throw in free accommodation for a night if you stay for five nights, etc. Some packages are all inclusive, covering everything from airfare to sightseeing. You might want to plan your trip to Maldives in advance if you want to have the best time without leaving a hole in your wallet.

Maldives luxury villas are also on offer and most resorts have beach villas which are next to the ocean and water villas which are on the ocean itself. If ultimate luxury is what you seek, nothing can beat the experience of living on the ocean. Of course, luxury comes at a price. You should check out the asking rates before getting too excited!
