An affordable way to visit Maldives
If Maldives is on your bucket list but you feel it’s too expensive for you, this post is absolutely for you.
I’ve heard people say that there is no affordable way to visit Maldives, well I disagree with that; even though the word “affordable” means different things to different people.Let’s dive into it;
You can use the following ways below to get affordable accommodation in maldives;
Friends and family working in resorts in Maldives
As part of the contract of many resorts, workers can invite 2 family members to the resort at no extra cost.
Their guest would have to sleep in the staff area but is free to explore the tourist areas and eat from the tourist restaurants. This option won’t get you a bed in an overwater Bungalow or villa. Well, if sleeping in an overwater villa or bungalow is important to you, your relative/friend who works in the resort can speak to the Manager. Resorts give a discount of 20-40% to their workers whose friends want the full entire experience of the resort.So its time for you to call that friend.
Through Expatriates
People on work visa in Maldives get to pay for most things at same rates with the locals and they get 20-40% off most resorts. The expatriate has to call and send in their residence permits to the resorts.
Through British airways
British airways has many package holidays to various destinations.I met many people in in resorts on these packages. It starts from £3000 for 2 people for 5-7days all inclusive of flights and resort accommodation.You can get amazing all inclusive deals. Also, frequent flyers with avois points can get discounts.
Through other sites
There are many sites such as booking.com , Hotels.com , Trip.com and other travel agencies that might have affordable packages. Just make sure to understand what they are offering before you make any payment.
Maldives is a beautiful luxury destination and everyone should see it in their lifetime. It’s time for you to contact and link up with that friend or relative working in Maldives!
