A Dream Honeymoon in the Maldives -Without burning a hole in your pocket

by caleb Posted on

Are you dreaming of a romantic getaway to the Maldives but worried about breaking the bank? Well, fear not! With some smart planning and budgeting, you can enjoy a beautiful honeymoon in the Maldives without overspending. Here are some tips to help you plan a budget-friendly honeymoon in this tropical paradise.

1. Travel during the off-season

Maldives Beach Villas for Romantic Escape | Image via Summer Island Maldives Official Site

The peak season in the Maldives is from December to April when the weather is dry and sunny. However, this is also the most expensive time to visit the Maldives. Consider traveling during the off-season (May to November) when the prices are lower at superior beach bungalows in Maldives and the crowds are thinner with better deals at places such as Summer Island Maldives. You can still enjoy the beautiful beaches and crystal-clear waters of the Maldives without burning a hole in your pocket.

2. Look for budget-friendly accommodations

There are plenty of budget-friendly accommodations in the Maldives, including guesthouses and budget hotels. These options may not be as luxurious as the island resorts, but they offer a comfortable stay without breaking the bank. You can also look for all-inclusive packages that include meals, drinks, and activities.

3. Plan your meals

Food can be expensive in the Maldives, especially if you’re dining at the resort restaurants. Consider staying at a guesthouse that offers a kitchenette or make use of the local markets to buy groceries and prepare your meals. You could also opt for street food which is delicious and affordable.

4. Explore the local islands

Most of the tourists in the Maldives stay at the resort islands, but you can save money by exploring the local islands. You can take a public ferry or a speedboat to the nearby islands where you can experience the local culture, try local cuisine, and enjoy water activities at a lower cost.

5. Plan your activities

The Maldives is famous for its water activities like snorkeling, diving, and surfing. These can be expensive if you book them through the resorts. Instead, look for local operators who offer these activities at a lower cost.
