    Please note that the two resorts I am describing in this video are just examples but far not the best places in Maldives. Keep searching for the best place.

      TravelTip Yes I had done this trip on a budget but it worked out really well. we stayed at Thulusdhoo island, went snorkeling, sand bank, and saw dolphins. There are locals on the island as well. They are very nice. I will upload my video soon and will let you know. My trip was not as luxurious as yours hehe but I had a great time. I love the music in your video too.

    I bet this video don't show the rubbish everywhere and the rubbish dump that stinks and greets you as you leave the airport and on approach to the town. I bet it don't show the Island near Male where they try to burn 30 tonnes of rubbish a day while complaining about global warming. I bet it doesn't tell you about how the government makes all employees put their money in one of two banks so they can take a huge proportion of the salaries of the people that work on the resorts that paid next to nothing. I bet it won't show you that all non-muslims have to pay 33% of their bills extra to give to the Muslims to pay their bills. People be responsible BOYCOTT the Maldives please

    What does "there will be no women's swimwear rule" mean? Does this mean they can go without swim suits, or that they can wear whatever kinds of swimwear they want?

    • @traveltip5543
      @traveltip5543  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, you are right, it's an ambiguous meaning in my explanation. It means that if the lady is on a populated island of Maldives, then she cannot walk around this island in a swimwear. For this they have certain beach areas on the populated island. And even at this areas she cannot wear bikini. But if she travels to a private island resort then she can freely walk around in a swimwear.

    • @rock3times
      @rock3times 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Maldives is muslim country. On resorts, women can wear bikini on beaches, but cover the top in restaurants. On populated islands, there are separate corners reserved for tourists called bikini beaches , on rashdhoo where I stayed, bikini are allowed, but when walking tru the town, even on the way to bikini beaches, you must cover hair, shoulder chest with shawl. Local hosts can give you 5 minutes lesson how to dress properly.
      Living at BB on populated islands is much cheaper than in resorts and you can learn about local cultures. Foods are expensive and of few choices. No pork products nor alcohols.

      If u want to experience the real peaceful Maldives which we see in TH-cam videos travel vlogs...private island resorts are the option starting range is from 25k inr in 2019...exclusive taxes...and speaking about luxury resorts u should have lakhs budget...in inr....definitely Maldives is one of expensive option for India travelers but every penny will be justified...u won't remember how much u spent after holiday......only memories not bank statements....hope u r wish come true......

    • @robertmuhammabe7642
      @robertmuhammabe7642 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dear. It depends on what u choose. U can stay with maldivians in the islands and its very cheap while u choose to stay in 7* resorts it will rob your bank. So choose wisely. There are 130$ rooms to 50000$ a day rooms. Its up to u dear

    Thanks for pointing out some prices... are they in US Dollars? I had no idea Maldives was so expensive! So it's "saving up" for this dreamy vacation!

    • @traveltip5543
      @traveltip5543  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for your interest, hope it was helpful. Yes, it's in dollars. And it's really expensive if you travel with family. I mean if you travel to a private resort. Hotel on a populated island might be not the vocation that you have expected from Maldives trip. So I strongly advice to collect additional money (maybe reschedule the trip) and spend those collected money only for private island resort.

    Hello, just one question....if u visit a resort, can u eat( lunch and dinner) for example in that restaurant "Sunset"??even if u are not stayed inthe resort??
    And the food, you have a choice of meat and fish??, because iam feed up of burguers and pizza..
    Thanks sandra

    • @traveltip5543
      @traveltip5543  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello, prior to the visit you will make prepayment for a daylight stay at the resort (approximately from 10.00 to 18.00). Usually this prepayment includes fee for lunch but no drink (no water). You can walk freely around the island. I gave Olhuveli as an example but there are other much better resorts for same price. Olhuveli is a bit overpriced and water near the beach has seaweed areas. For me that was not pleasant experience. Please not it before planning your visit.

    • @traveltip5543
      @traveltip5543  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Right. These are two different resorts in immediate proximity. They would not organize the tour, but they can ask special speed boat service to do it. But it will cost you big money if you are a family. You will pay per person not for the boat. For me it is not necessary to travel from expensive to moderate resort. Usually people do the opposite way.

    • @traveltip5543
      @traveltip5543  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi, Holiday Inn is next to Guraidhoo populated island but believe me it still has better beach than Olhuveli. The Olhuveli resort is good in terms of infrastructure but beach can be graded as 4 of 10.

    • @traveltip5543
      @traveltip5543  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello, by making this video I just wanted to share my experience. I recommend you to keep searching for various places in Maldives. First make sure that there is no seaweed around but corals. The beach on Olhuveli is not better than on Fun Island, the price and infrustructure is different. Both places have some parts of seaweed. Good luck!

      @traveltip5543  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dear ''COCONTANDWHAT'', thank you for watching my video. Hope you could find some information that might be helpful. There are some affordable hotels in Maldives with 80 dollars per night but on populated islands. It is not that perfect but from there you can make tours to other good resorts. But you must pay 70-110 dollars (per person!) for the tour to the resort (lunch included).

    • @traveltip5543

      Thank you for your kind words). Various water sports activities are offered on all islands. If you go to private resort island then there will be one (or two) scuba diving centre. Those centres do not compulsory belong to the resort owner but have mutual agreement to work together. Scuba diving centres offer more or less same prices at all resorts. But prices of scuba diving centres on populated islands (where guesthouses and affordable hotels are located) are cheaper, at the same time the equipment also is not that high quality and not that well maintained as on private islands. If you go to resort then be prepared that scuba diving prices will be comparatively high (there aren't many people at resorts who wish to use the scuba diving centre products actively - because of the high price). I give as example the following 4,5 - 5 star resorts' prices: Scuba Dive (one dive) - 53$, Six day Non limit Scuba Diving - 560$, Scuba Diving Course (one dive) - 125$, Scuba Diving Course (second dive) - 110$, Beginner Scuba Diving Course: open water, seven dives (incl. equipment, boat fees etc) - 995$, Nitrox course (two dives) - 310$, bubblemaker (one dive) - 110$, underwater digital camera for rent (one day) - 38$, Day/night snorkelling trip (manta, turtle) - 44$ (adult), 18 (kid), Snorkelling reef safari - 51$, , speedboat - 350$ (per hour). You can go kayaking. Some resorts offer kayaks for free, but be careful - there are some not noticeable but still currents, so you will struggle your way back to the resort if go far away.
      If you still havn't decided about resort then I recommend you to study other options except Olhuveli. I found that place overpriced taking into consideration the beach quality and close location to Maafushi. You can find good places somewhere in the center of Baa or Raa atolls.
      You can reach any resort in Maldives only by speedboat (plane). Other way will be regarded as trespassing. It is a private property and they have their own rules. Private taxi boats are not allowed to enter private resorts. Ferries do not stop at resorts as well.

      I add sports fishing as well. Within 50 km from male, speedboats, 50- 100 km speedboats or planes depending on resorts, over 100 , must fly.
      Speedboats are much cheaper. Pick resorts close to male to save, or BB on populated islands to save even more.

      Thank you very much for your kind review. Hope you will have a great time out there if you intend to travel to Maldives. Have you already chosen the resort? If not I can advise you later on the better location. Water would be enough I think). I consumed about one liter a day the most

      Hello Sowmya Ramanna, try searching resorts on Raa Atoll and further up on the map. Olhuveli and Fun Island resorts which I described in video are taken as a sample, but Olhuveli is not a good place (beach) for the price it offers.

    Hi,can you recommend an affordable resort with good beach’s for 2000 or below for 2 weeks and activities.like a really low budget holiday.

    • @traveltip5543
      @traveltip5543  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can travel really cheap if you stay on some inhabited islands and travel around from there. Literally there will be your base for various journeys around Maldives. The highest price for one day trip to 5 star resort will cost you 100 dollars. Also you can search for 3 star resorts like Fun Island without locals, only tourists. I already mentioned the names of good inhabitated islands in my another video witj tje link below. But please do not stay on Maafushi island.
      If you want to spent two weeks on resort island for 2000 then try some places which offer discounts in summer (not a high season) but frankly I do not know the resort whithin this budget. If you add some money then you may check resorts that I mentiond in this link at 2 min. 30 sec th-cam.com/video/Rqwo8NXR4OA/w-d-xo.html

    Totally disagree with your recommendation of taking "reef shoes". You should not be walking on or even thinking of touching any of the coral reef as it simply kills it!!!
