The Maldives are on most people’s bucket lists, and are a favourite among honeymooners, families and of course beach and water enthusiasts! With well over 100 resorts to choose from, where do you begin to search for your ideal Maldivian Resort. Most resorts lie on their own private island where swaying palms fringe coral lagoons and pale blue waters lap the sands…. so how do you choose between them? This little guide to choosing the best resort in the Maldives, should help narrow down your options. 

Holiday planning in 2021 is different to any year we have seen before. Even if you had an unlimited budget, there are so many restrictions in place as the world plans around COVID-19, PCR testing, quarantines and vaccine rollouts. So where do you even consider going? 

What is your ultimate romantic getaway? If it’s strolling hand-in-hand along a beach, lazing together beneath swaying palms, or indulging in sun-sand-and-surf adventures, then love is an island made for two. Here are our top 5 beach spots for a romantic island getaway. 

At Pentravel, we heart Maldives. With its Crusoe-chic resort islands, limpid blue lagoons and radiant coral reefs, what’s not to love? Maldives is the kind of dreamy destination that needs to be seen to be believed, which is why we were so excited to catch up with Pen expert, Landi Burger, to get the deets on her recent trip to paradise.
