The advantages of new resorts are obvious:
— the quality of the services provided (I understand that this item can constantly change) Where can I find a profitable tour?Yes, more often they fly to the Maldives on their own, because tour operators do not work with all resorts. But it ALWAYS makes sense to compare the cost of the trip “I am all by myself” and “tour”. Personally, I counted at least three hotels mentioned in this text that they come out much cheaper with a ticket than if you fly there on your own. In the case of Booking or any other accommodation search engine, two footnotes spoil the first impression: 1) tax (from 5,000 rubles to the cost of a night and up to 150,000) and 2) transfer from the airport to the island (plus $ 200 – $ 1000 per person). Tour operators, buying out entire hotels and organizing a group transfer, reduce such surcharges to zero. Check if this is your case on any of the tour aggregators. They show all offers from leading tour operators:
But, Of course, it is far from always profitable for tour operators to make the Maldives accessible. And often the hotel may simply not be listed in the database – such is it, the luxury of the islands. Briefly about the rules of entry – 2021. What new hotels have opened in the Maldives in 2021?This year, in the Maldives, not only new hotels were opened for tourists, but also a new one, built up with varying degrees of luxury with villas in the archipelago – the Fari Islands. It includes four islands: three for resort hotels and one for employees, on which everything rests. These hotels will open our list of novelties in the Maldives 2021. P.S. Personally, I LOVED hotels #1 and #6 (and this one is all inclusive ;)). 5* Patina Maldives
Let's start with a heavy suite. This new hotel in the Maldives began to receive tourists from May 18, 2021. And this is a fairy tale in a six- or even seven-figure sum. Everything that you can imagine with the word “Maldives” is here. From water villas and your assigned Essentialist (your personal assistant) to beach clubs and 12 restaurants, including full vegan. The patina perfectly shows why the new hotel is cool: it has a modern design, where stone, wood and metal set the tone. It stands out from the background of the usual Maldivian hotels, at least look at the photos of those on our list after the Ritz. Along with the design, three other strengths of the hotel are noted in the reviews: food, cocktails and wine. In a word, Patina is at the level of all the famous resorts in the Maldives. Someone even claims that this is the best hotel at the moment… We will believe them and go look at the pictures, visualize and save money.

Concept: breakfast, half and full board The third resort hotel on the Fari Islands – Capella Maldives – will open its doors only in 2023. Let's wait and be sure to add it to the future list🙂 5* Le Méridien Maldives Resort & Spa
He appeared to the world on September 1, 2021 and set a price tag THREE times cheaper than previous hotels. So, new 5-star hotels in the Maldives can be both impossibly expensive and quite adequate. Exploring what to expect inside. At least the food Le Meridien is not worse. Yes, the variety is not impressive even without mangoes for breakfast, but many people note the quality and taste in 6 local restaurants. The cabins are nice and spacious, but note that the overwater villas are limited to 2 people (what about families?) and the standard villas, at the base rate, don't have a pool. This is a frequent minus from reviews, as is the colorful but distant house reef. The island itself is large, green and shady – there are 141 villas on it. There is a nice kids club with a Russian-speaking nanny. Concept: breakfast, half and full board, all inclusive 5* Kuda Villingili Maldives Resort
This new hotel in the Maldives, opened in May, has already received reviews. Mostly they are good – still, there are royal by the standards of the Maldives rooms from 120 sq. meters, extremely aesthetically pleasing and expensive, convenient transfer on a yacht, excellent work of the chef and all this is not for a million a day. In addition, the island is located at a good surf spot in the Chickens ocean! Equipment will be provided and even taught to stand on the board if necessary. Only 2 categories of villas out of 7 have a private pool, but this is compensated by a huge pool in the center of the island. There are no complaints about the service (although at the beginning there was an unpleasant situation with the cancellation of the reservation due to erroneous rates on the site). What else is bad to say about? Unfortunately, about the beach. There is no that snow-white flour on the shore, because the island is artificial, and the sand is imported. There is no house reef either. Plus imperfections: somewhere a little construction, something does not work. The hotel is not for a relaxing holiday: some kind of entertainment rumbles here all the time and is generally noisy. Concept: breakfasts, half and full board 5* Siyam World
Thirdly, the hotel captivates with a free transfer if booked for 5 or more nights. And then there is a fat minus: for 5 nights, a flight by domestic airlines is available, and their schedule does not always fit well with international flights. But for stays of 7 nights or more, they already provide a seaplane, and flights are flexible here. Another disadvantage is often the lack of a reef (they say it was donated in the name of building a hotel) and flaws in the service (not all processes are debugged, the hotel was opened in a hurry). Well, the design of the villas certainly doesn't compare to the resorts above. Concept: all inclusive 5* Cora Cora Maldives
The newest hotel in the Maldives, welcoming guests since the end of October. In a month or two, when all traces of construction and the recent opening are gone, it looks like a very pleasant hotel. Even with the mark “almost perfect”. Despite the more modest size of the standard villas (70 sq.m for 3 adults + 1 child), they are all with access to the beach and ocean views right from the bed. Inside, without “granite-beige-minimalism”, but fresh and pretty. The island is small and very green, calm, but privacy suffers a little. The staff are dope! In addition, two main elements of the Maldives have successfully developed here: a lagoon with soft white sand and a house reef where you will be taken to snorkel. But colorful fish swim near the shore. Oh yes, Cora Cora is all inclusive, and even with a cool alcohol card! Only with the unusual difference that the breakfast buffet, and lunches and dinners – a la carte menu in any of the 5 restaurants. And it works: all guests celebrate the chic cuisine (and prosecco for breakfast :)). Concept: all inclusive 4* Cocogiri Island Resort A good 4-star hotel for a reasonable price – when you want to relax in the Maldives and not overpay for a butler, a brand and ten restaurants. Everything about Cocorigi is very basic and no frills, but the views are beautiful, the ocean is blue and the sand is white. A small and quiet island with 40 villas of three types: a small beach villa of 49 sq.m, a water villa of 52 sq.m and a water villa with a jacuzzi. Accommodates up to 3 people. There are 2 restaurants on site – and there is an all-inclusive option. You can keep yourself busy at the diving center (the house reef is decent) or at the spa. On one side of the island the beach is sandy, on the other side there are corals. Currently only available for booking as part of a tour. Concept: breakfast, half and full board, all inclusive New hotels in the Maldives opened in 2020
The villas are simpler than in the previous hotel, but the price is also lower – about 38,000 rubles per night + $375 for the transfer. On one side of the island there is a beach where you can swim, on the other there is a reef where you can snorkel and watch the fish. They note that for guests all snorkeling equipment is free of charge, there are also excursions. There are three restaurants on site. There is an all-inclusive option (from 75,000 rubles per day). The hotel had staffing issues when it opened, but the reviews seem to be better now.
A small idyllic island, as if from the best photos of the Maldives on Pinterest. Perfect for a honeymoon or just a vacation in complete silence with beautiful scenery. The villas are spacious – from 105 sq.m – and can accommodate only two. Prices correspond to the heavenly level – from 100,000 rubles per night. Tourists who managed to visit the hotel for a year left entirely good reviews. Choose from breakfast only, breakfast+dinner and all inclusive. Maldives New Hotels 2019< p> |
