The Maldives is the ultimate honeymoon destination, offering secluded luxury, turquoise lagoons, and pristine white-sand beaches. Couples can unwind in overwater villas, indulge in world-class dining, and enjoy romantic sunsets over the Indian Ocean. With its unparalleled beauty and intimate ambiance, the Maldives is where love stories bloom in paradise. The Maldives are my top honeymoon destination every year. But does a honeymoon in the Maldives have to cost a fortune? No, it is on the pricey side, but there are budget-friendly all-inclusives in the Maldives, ensuring you can visit paradise without breaking the bank. And the romantic experiences you can have here are truly unparalleled.
Angasana Veluvaru
Celebrate your honeymoon in dynamic paradise at Angsana Velavaru, an all-inclusive retreat on a private island surrounded by azure waters. Choose from beachfront villas or stunning overwater sanctuaries, many with private infinity pools. Enjoy exquisite dining, relax with couples’ spa treatments, and embark on adventures like snorkeling or dolphin-watching cruises.
Pro Tip for Angsana Velavaru: Upgrade to the Deluxe InOcean Pool Villa. The rooftop pavilion is the perfect spot for in-villa spa treatments, and a wooden poolside deck gives you space to relax and observe the underwater life right underneath. A Sala Bed at the edge of your private boardwalk is ideal for enjoying the expansive ocean views.
Heritance Aarah
Honeymooning at the Heritance Aarah in the Maldives is a slice of heaven. Imagine waking up in an overwater villa, diving into crystal-clear lagoons, and indulging in gourmet dining with your toes in the sand. With luxurious amenities, serene spa treatments, and endless ocean views, every moment at Heritance Aarah celebrates love and creates memories that last a lifetime.
Pro-Tip for Heritance Aarah: Wine lovers need to upgrade to an Ocean Suite with an Infinity Pool or an Ocean Residence with an Infinity Lap pool because they come with a fully stocked wine cellar.
Constance Halaveli
With one of the longest water villa jetties, luxurious facilities, and 5-star diving, Constance Halaveli has everything you would expect from a luxury resort in the Maldives. It is shaped like a curved dhoni (a traditional Maldivian boat), and its white sandy beaches and turquoise water perfectly contrast with the emerald green vegetation. The resort elegantly drifts in North Ari Atoll.
Pro-Tip for Constance Halaveli: the water villa jetty is LONG! If you want maximum privacy and romance pick a villa at the end of the jette, but be aware that you will be far from everything. Constance does have buggies, but I didn't like using them.
Sun Siyam Iru Fushi
Iru Fushi is a tropical haven where luxury meets natural beauty. With stunning villas, pristine beaches, and endless ocean views, it’s the perfect escape for romance and relaxation. Indulge in world-class dining, rejuvenate at the award-winning spa, and explore vibrant marine life, all while surrounded by the serene charm of this island paradise.
Pro-Tip for Sun Siyam Iru Fushi: It is a popular family-friendly resort, so there will be children. They do have adult-only areas and restaurants, but if you want an adult-only trip this might not be the best choice.
OZEN Reserve Bolifushi
Embrace ultimate luxury and romance at OZEN Reserve Bolifushi, an all-inclusive haven in the Maldives. This exquisite resort offers overwater villas and beachfront retreats with private pools and butler service. Savor world-class dining, rejuvenate at the overwater spa, and create lasting memories with experiences like underwater dining and sunset dhoni cruises.
Pro-Tip for OZEN Reserve Bolifushi: Be careful if you book an overwater villa with a slide. When the tide goes out, you could be sliding directly into coral. If the resort says not to use the slide during certain times, don't use the slide!
Centara Grand Island Resort & Spa
Escape to paradise at Centara Grand, where your all-inclusive honeymoon is as carefree as it is unforgettable. This luxurious resort nestles amid crystal-clear lagoons and powdery white sands and offers overwater villas, private pools, and breathtaking ocean views. Indulge in gourmet dining, rejuvenate at the serene spa, and embark on romantic adventures like sunset cruises or snorkeling among vibrant marine life. At Centara Grand, every moment honors your love story.
Pro-Tip for Centara Grand: Centara is popular with families (especially large families), there are better choices if you don't like the kiddos.
