Hello Sir, saw your wonderful series of Maldives. Just wanted to know 1. Are water activities included in your package 2. Also, if one wants to do snorkeling and other water activites which option would be best considering price over water villas or holiday inn

Thank you. Here are my responses- 1. Are water activities included in your package. They provide snorkeling gear & some of them are included you need to check with the resort. 2. Also, if one wants to do snorkeling and other water activites which option would be best considering price over water villas or holiday inn. For marine life, I found Adaaran to be better.

@@mohitmak4 Here are your answers- 1.Can you tell me what were the covid travelling guidelines you followed as per Maldives Govt rules.? I went to Maldives in April’19 (Pre Covid) 2.What were the updated covid guidelines? Ans-All the details are here- kzitem.info/news/bejne/tIqsnKmtkmp7pI4 The updates for the guidelines are in this link- visitmaldives.s3.amazonaws.com/go0kzLqZ/nxuq5v8k.pdf 2.Is Covid test compulsory when we depart from Maldives to delhi or can we done our test at delhi airport? It is possible to get it done at Delhi Airport but you need to prebook it I guess and wait for the reports. 3.Is it possible to stay at two different island (I hv booked my stay for 3days at maafushi and for 3 days at paradise resort)? In short, YES. Split-Stays are permitted between all tourist establishments that meet all compulsory requirements under the Split-Stay guideline approved by the local Health Protection Agency. Requests for approval of these Split-Stays should be submitted to the Ministry of Tourism two days prior to the traveling date. 4.Can we book private speed boat to paradise from Maafushi, will they allow to private speed boat to their jetty?, I have doubt because as per resort policy speed boat transfer compulsory. If not we have to travel male first from Maafushi to male? For this, it’s better to contact the resort directly. Hope it helps.

I've had few more queries and it would be helpful if you answer as you've now experienced with Maldives and it's booking process. 1. If I am booking with agoda, can I book one day for garden villa other for beach villa and rest for water villa so as to enjoy all the options or should I book the lowest option and upgrade it with the resort after reaching. I find it cheaper doing on these websites rather upgrading directly with upgrades as I've read few reviews regarding the same. Basically, are we allowed to book in the manne I mentioned or is it mandatory to upgrade it with the resort specifically kuredu resort. 2. Same as 1 with little difference, can I book few days full board and other with all inclusive from the website, as the all days with all inclusive would be out of the budget but we do like to enjoy 1-2 days of all inclusive package as well. Thanks in advance
@WanderingMonk
5 жыл бұрын
To answer your 1st query, I would say that you can make as many bookings as you want, the resort will not have any objections to it. Normally people split their stay between beach villa & overwater villa to save cost. Please do your maths to check which way is it cheaper, by writing the resort making separate bookings or by upgrading the existing booking. Sometimes upgrading at the resort turns out to be cheaper. In short, you can make 4 different bookings for 4 nights of stay and the resort will not have any issues. The same answer applies to your query no 2 as well. Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know, in case of any additional query.

Wandering Monk thank you sir ! I somewhere read that the all inclusive should be done for tje entite length of stay and so I was bit curious to know if it is the case witj all the resorts. Do you have any idea regarding kuredu Island resort ? It has a very good rating yet I find it cheaper than other resorts with same ratings. I wonder if it has any hidden charges ? Water villa they have cost only 24k with full board which is hard to find somewhere with such ratings and good review, was bit dubious regarding the same If you can help with any suggestion ?

I just checked the Kuredu resort, looks good. You can book that but check out for the transfer charges. The all inclusive options are resort specific, check with resorts where you are booking for that, make sure that you can opt for the all inclusive option just for a day or two. On the side note, hope you have subscribed to my channel 😊.

Icom & Kaani Hotels run regular shared services between Maafushi & Airport at regular intervals, they have given details on their websites(link in the description). You can book that online. Between Maafushi & Kandooma there is no scheduled service, you must contact them on Whatsapp & or FB Messenger to arrange the transport. Kaani is not connected to Icom, they are another Speedboat & Tour operator and they also have hotels in Maafushi.
