If you are dreaming of a holiday at an exotic location where you can sweep that special someone off their feet, then the Maldives should definitely be your go-to destination. For the most magical getaway, stay at a private island resort offering curated experiences full of romance, including those mentioned below.
Experience Private Dining
Dinner here can mean far more than a restaurant reservation. At adults-only private island properties like Anantara Veli Maldives Resort, you can enjoy wine tasting in the afternoon, then barefoot dining at a “beach table” sculpted from sand at sunset. Alternatively, dine at a private faree tent amidst candlelit lanterns beside the sea or journey by boat to a deserted island for an intimate dinner under the stars.
Indulge in a Couples’ Ayurvedic Massage
There’s something deeply romantic about unwinding side by side in the Maldives. Honeymoon resorts with a spa that offers Ayurvedic treatments for two are thus a perfect choice. You will get to experience an Abhyanga massage using heated oil, soothing herbal Pindana Sweda pouches and a rejuvenating Siro Abhyangam treatment. You both will emerge in a state of bliss and in the mood for romance!
Embark on a Sunset Cruise
A sunset cruise in Maldives is not to be missed and actually feels almost cinematic… of course, you and your partner are the stars of this particular love story! As your boat glides across the Indian Ocean, the sky shifts from gold to crimson while you sip Champagne and nibble delicate canapés. The breeze is gentle, the horizon endless, and you will find yourself lost in the magic of this spellbinding sight.
Charter an Overnight Yacht Journey
For something different, stay at a resort which also gives you the chance to charter its private yacht and sail into the horizon. On your journey across the open seas, you can snorkel above colourful reefs, pause at pristine sandbanks and dine onboard as the sun dips low. Later, stargaze together on deck before falling asleep to the soft rhythm of waves. Pro tip: This is the perfect time for a proposal… no pressure, of course!
