How to plan your trip to Maldives with kids
The immaculate beaches, the romantic sunsets, and candle-lit dinners paint the picture of the Maldives as an exclusive honeymoon destination; however, it is not the case. This scenic archipelago is quite ideal for spending a vacation even with family and kids. Here's how to plan your perfect holiday in vacation, ensuring that all your kids' needs are met.
Look for an all-inclusive package
The best way to ensure that you don't go broke in the Maldives is to look for all-inclusive offers. It surely is tempting to try out dishes from various restaurants or to go snorkelling in a different island that looked drop-dead gorgeous while you were browsing through the internet. If a vacation to the Maldives includes kids, there are more expenses included in your trip than if you two were a couple of honeymooners. Giving in to all your whims and fancies would only result in a hefty bill by the end of your trip to this fairy tale destination. What with the costs of meals, snorkelling equipment rentals, and travelling charges, you'd end up spending more than you planned at the beginning. Therefore, opting for an all-inclusive package when planning a trip to the Maldives will keep you from spending another dime once you arrive at your resort island. However, even the resorts that offer all inclusive-packages have other fabulous services available at an additional cost.
Look for a package that has an array of meal options
Don't we all know how kids can throw a tantrum when it comes to their meal times – they might calmly nibble on a piece of cheese but would readily weep for a blueberry muffin the next minute. Thus, whatever the holiday package you select, make sure it caters to the swinging tastes and emotions of kids by having a wider array of meal options. During any other day, you may not spoil your kid by giving in to all of their demands, but you might want to pamper your kids during a family vacation – especially when it's to the Maldives! Keep your eyes peeled for packages that offer elaborate buffet options rather than discreet room services that offer limited food varieties. Moreover, do make sure that these buffet areas have dedicated baby corner, so that you may be able to enjoy the mouthwatering delicacies of the Maldives to your heart's content without struggling with your kids. You might feel the need to have that much-deserved cocktail after juggling your hectic schedules to keep your loved ones, and your kids happy. So it would be best if you know whether these drinks are included in your package to avoid any disappointments – cocktails and other beverages do come at over-the-top prices at these resorts.
Book rooms that accommodate kids
Resorts in the Maldives come with different types of rooms that accommodate the varying needs of their visitors. From overwater villas that look out over sparkling lagoons to beachfront suites, there are various kinds from which you can choose depending on your needs. If you're travelling with kids, a garden front or a beachfront bungalow will work in your favour. However, if your kids include teenagers, you should definitely opt for a place with interconnecting rooms, as cramped up in the same room as you would not make the vacation enjoyable to your teenage kids. Although if you're travelling with one small toddler, you can go for an over-water villa for a rustic and luxurious experience. Expect stunning beach views from the balconies or to relax in a bathtub that overlooks the glistening lagoons.
Make reservations at a resort with kid-friendly activities
When you want to include your kids to a holiday in the Maldives, you should make sure that it becomes enjoyable for them as well. You shouldn't restrict your days to merely relaxing by the beach while enjoying your favourite book and enjoying killer sunsets, but you should also plan out fun things to do in Maldives for your kids as well. Make sure the activities included in your all-inclusive package cater to the enjoyment of your children. Kayaking or snorkelling in the shallow waters would be best if you have kids around the age of six. Read through blogs such as The Maldives Travel to find out other activities you can do in this scenic destination, which would make you feel closer to your kids.
