At a slow pace and at a picturesque land, they enjoyed the fruits of a blissful 4 nights/5 days honeymoon trip to Maldives.

Read on as Hemant describes about his relaxinghoneymoon trip at a lavish island resort in Maldives –  in the middle of the calm blue waters of the Indian Ocean.

Trip Duration: 4 nights/5 days
Trip Cost: INR 1,22,000
Agent Name: Kesia Holidays
Month of Travel: February 2017

One of my friends used TravelTriangle and had a good experience with them, so he recommended us to do the same. The location (Maldives) was more or less decided because of the timing of our honeymoon. Generally, during Jan and Feb most of the possible destinations are in their winter season. So, out of Maldives and Sri Lanka, we decided to go with the former.

There was plenty of curiosity and anxiety inside me before heading on our honeymoon trip to Maldives. Before I could ponder on too many what ifs, my wife completely lightened up my mood which kind of set the tone for the upcoming 4 days that we would enjoy together.

We took a flight from New Delhi at 5 am and arrived in Maldives in the afternoon, tired and exhausted. We were driven to the port and then transferred by boat to a private island. Upon our arrival at the Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma, the staff gave us a nice and warm welcome. Our honeymoon trip to Maldives had begun on a positive note.

We thought of taking a quick snooze and just like all naps, we couldn’t figure out when 15 mins became two hours, as we woke up to a light and cool evening breeze. Since, this was the perfect time to explore our island, we decided to take a casual walk on the beach. Afterwards, we ended our day with a sweet and romantic dinner at the hotel.

The next morning began with a healthy breakfast. Post that, we grabbed our water equipment and went for snorkeling lessons (which were included in the package). We were in the water for around four hours. It was an exciting and enjoyable day in the crystal clear waters of Maldives.

Since, it got pretty hot in the day, we returned back to the resort in the afternoon to relax. Our priorities were clear- relax as much as possible on this honeymoon trip to Maldives. After a few hours, we again wandered out to visit the rest of the island.

I must say, I really enjoyed those evenings in Maldives exploring a pristine island with my wife. Taking long walks where we’d talk about all the things we’re looking forward to in the next chapter of our lives together – and what got us here to this beautiful point in our lives.

Day 3: Snorkeling and sunbathing in magical Maldives

The next day, after breakfast, we put on our snorkeling equipment and proceeded towards the deep blue sea to try our luck. Although, it was scary at first, I soon started enjoying the whole experience, and boy, it was the best feeling ever!

After that we took lunch, and repeated the same old routine of taking an afternoon nap at the  hotel.  I liked the location of our room which was at an elevated point. Later, as we climbed down the stairs in front of our villa, we could sun bathe and relax on our personal benches. Initially, our plan was for scuba diving, but we didn’t go due to shortage of time. Instead, we spent our evening at a part of the island called the sunset beach.

Day 4: An unforgettable day in a water villa

On our final day, we shifted to a water villa. The scenic view and luxuries at that villa were unbelievable. We spent the rest of our morning in the pool and relaxed in our villa balcony in the afternoon.

In the evening, we took a sunset view tour organized by the resort. A two-hour boat trip in the sea to watch the sun go down from an incredibly beautiful vantage point. They dropped down a net into the water on which you can sit, float, and enjoy the sunset. They topped off the incredible experience with complimentary wine and cheese.

The final dinner of our honeymoon trip to Maldives was at the water villa. An exclusive table arranged for us at the villa with a private cook and waiters made the night all the more special for us.
