Exotic All-Inclusive Resorts in the Maldives for Every Budget

Dreamy over-water bungalows, crystal clear water and palm-lined beaches; we've chosen our favourite all-inclusive hotels in the Maldives for the vacation of a lifetime.

You’ve seen the Maldives all over Instagram: this nation of 26 natural atolls in the Indian Ocean is famous for its powder-soft beaches, turquoise lagoons and wide open skies. Protected by coral reefs, the crystalline waters here are a magnet for divers looking to explore colourful marine life and ocean-floor shipwrecks. Hotels in the Maldives also serve those seeking tranquillity, with coconut palms, gentle sea breezes and holistic spas to soothe and nourish both mind and body.

We’ve hand-selected our favourite all-inclusive resorts so you can focus on the things you’ll cherish the most, like sipping champagne while the sun goes down, snorkelling in clear waters or bonding with friends over a game of beach volleyball. From family-friendly hotels with kids’ clubs and paddling pools to romance-heavy getaways and action-packed water sport havens, you’ll be sure to find the Maldives vacation that fits your personal vibe.

A Luxury All-Inclusive on a Marine Migration Route

1/4
The Constance Moofushi takes luxury to a whole other level with special touches like house champagne, boat excursions and afternoon tea on the beach. Watch the stars come out over the Indian Ocean from a hammock on your beachfront terrace before a refreshing night’s sleep under your villa’s thatched palm ceiling.
Work up an appetite as you say hello to sea turtles, stingrays and other marine life in the crystal-clear waters on a snorkelling or diving excursion to the resort’s house reef. Back on the island, head to the Manta buffet for rotating themed menus, where you’ll savour Maldivian specialties like kulhi boakiba fish cakes spiced with chilli and ginger or a wood-fired pizza.
