Amazing Holiday in Maldives… Anyone Been?

Here’s a pic from my holiday in the Maldives. It was an unforgettable experience! [Image Link]




Looks beautiful! Could really use a vacation like this right now!

Oh yeah, it was awesome! Honestly, we wish we were back there at least once a week :sweat_smile:. One thing I forgot to mention earlier though: the Maldives is closer to the equator, so the UV is really strong. Don’t forget to use sunblock!

Is that the Raffles?

Yes, it was the Raffles! Amy and the rest of the staff were great. Staying there also gave us the chance to try a new cocktail, the Maldivian Sling, which became one of our new favorites!

It’s a Muslim-majority country, right? Do they have modesty rules that make it hard to enjoy the beaches and restaurants?

Yes, the mainland is mostly Muslim since it’s near Sri Lanka, but the small islands with the hotels and resorts are pretty laid-back. They get a lot of international tourists, so it’s very relaxed there.

My wife and I feel the same way about our trip there a few years ago.

The Maldives was great when we visited last year. I’ll admit though, coming from the US, it’s definitely a trip you want to take for two weeks.
