Planning a Last Minute Honeymoon Trip to The Maldives

The Maldives has become a popular place for romantic honeymoon vacations. Nestled in the Indian Ocean, the island chain happens to be the smallest country in Asia—by both geography and population. But that just makes it a stunning and secluded place to enjoy some post-wedding time together.

The crystal clear turquoise waters, puffy clouds on the horizon and overwater bungalows create an environment that is truly unrivaled anywhere else in the world.

When you start planning a honeymoon—especially last minute—it’s important to keep each other in the loop. Because it’s such a special vacation, you’ll want to make sure all wants and needs are considered. The best way to accomplish this is coming up with your itinerary together. Whether it’s where you’ll stay on your last minute trip to The Maldives or the airfare that will get you there, make your decisions with one another.

Think About Money for a Honeymoon Trip to The Maldives

Because the trip is last minute, it’s best to set a budget right away. In the rush of things, it’s easy to book the first hotel you find or schedule a cheap diving experience. But, if you set a budget and do your research, you’re likely to get the best bang for your buck. You can make sure you’re getting quality deals to make sure it’s the best last minute honeymoon it can be.

Finding a Place to Stay on your Honeymoon Trip to The Maldives

In the Maldives, you will definitely find some gorgeous resorts. Picking the best places to stay in the Maldives is not an easy task. Most hotels are situated on their own island, with one tree-filled section of land featuring the main aspects of the hotel. Here, you’ll be able to visit restaurants, take fitness classes, enjoy bars and dance clubs, register for scuba diving trips and go shopping. The stunning white sand beaches surround these areas, with wooden paths built over the water to take you to your bungalow. Here, steps lead directly from your porch into the clear waters. If you’re planning last minute, you’ll want to use a service like Voyage Privé to find the best deals on your honeymoon stay.

When To Book for your Honeymoon Trip to The Maldives

Last minute trips are always risky. Many of the great deals come in advance or right before you leave—but you don’t really want to wait when planning a honeymoon. While you may find better deals later, you may also end up paying more or not getting what you want. With such an important trip on the line, book everything as soon as you’ve researched your destination and know it’s where you want to go. Booking earlier will also save your time and stress just before the wedding.

Extending Your Stay—Secretly while on a Honeymoon Trip to The Maldives

Getting time off of work for a honeymoon is typically pretty easy, but also makes it more difficult to surprise your significant other. If you’re able, reach out to his or her boss on your own—after they’ve already gotten time off. A great way to incorporate a surprise is to extend the trip with the knowledge of the boss—but don’t tell your loved one until you’re already en route to The Maldives.

Adding Some Friends to the Mix while on a Honeymoon Trip to The Maldives

For a unique honeymoon trip, tack on a couple days and invite some of your mutual friends or another couple to meet you there. This is another great way to surprise your honey and will make the trip even more memorable. Once you’ve formed your own special memories celebrating your marriage, celebrate your loved ones by forming some spectacular island memories with them as well.

What to Do While You’re There on a Honeymoon Trip to The Maldives

Finally, don’t forget to plan out some fun in advance. While you may intend to just relax on the deck with the water surrounding you, it’s always nice to explore a little. There are a variety of massive reefs in The Maldives so consider a scuba diving or snorkeling trip. You can seek out dolphins, rays, small sharks and turtles in addition to colorful fish. If you’re staying near the capital island of Malé, you can also visit the Old Friday Mosque, which is carved out of white coral stone and dates back to the 1600s. There is also a walking tour of the city and various cooking classes available for a romantic evening out.

Crystal clear turquoise waters and the puffy clouds are perfect for a Honeymoon Trip to The Maldives. It is truly unrivalled anywhere else in the world.

Coming to Maldives Travel costs, it is a myth that Maldives is exorbitantly expensive, Maldives can be visited on a range of budgets from economy to the luxurious. Is Maldives on your cards?

I loved Scuba Diving in the Maldives and it’s definitely one of the most sought after activities for Honeymooners.

  25. I’ve wanted to visit the Maldives for awhile now – mainly as the water there is so clear and it would be great for diving. While I’m not sure I’d want to spend my entire honeymoon there (I like a bit of activities), I would LOVE to visit someday! I

  26. I just got married in May, and we did a mini-honeymoon trip. But we are planning a more extended honeymoon down the road, and The Maldives sounds amazing. From your post, it looks like there are many more places to stay than I thought, I do agree that a little planning could go a long way to making sure we don’t miss out on anything we would like to do. I don’t dive, but if we plan far enough in advance, I might be able to learn!

  27. The Maldives is such a stunning place to visit. I would go here even if I wasn’t on a honeymoon 🙂 It is one of my dreams to stay in an overwater bungalow. The thought of waking up to the beautiful ocean view and white sands can never get old! I will make sure to book early and to plan a ton of activities when I finally make this dream a reality.

  28. Look at how beautiful and turquoise that water is! I’ve always wanted to visit the Maldives! Maybe for an anniversary or something – looks like a great honeymoon destination as well! It would have to be a stopover because I get antsy without doing loads of activities! My husband and I hiked over 40 miles on our honeymoon along with loads of other activities like helicopter rides and such.
