While it may seem like a tropical island should be sunny year-round, the Maldives does have its fair share of rainy days during the monsoon season. To save yourself, and your guests the trouble of running for cover in the middle of your ‘I do’s’, plan around the wet monsoon season during the months of May to November.

A romantic dinner in Maldives with your loved one

by auburn Posted on

A vacation with your loved one is romance enough when all you have is each other in a foreign land; this becomes even more romantic when that foreign land is Maldives, easily among the top favourite honeymoon spots. However, if you are to share a meal under the starry skies in the picturesque foreign land of Maldives, the romance-o-meter would simply rocket off-scale!

Whatever your personal preferences may be, you will not be out of options for a romantic dinner date on Maldivian islands. Candles, soft music, and solitude are the common ingredients of romantic dining. Maldives, though, ups the game by adding clear starry skies, the low rush of waters that kiss the beach and most importantly, multiple locations for you to enjoy your meal. You could have a candlelight dinner for two on a deck at one of the beachside resorts. You could have a comfortable meal in each other’s arms in the privacy of your own villa if you stay with one of the private villas. You could star gaze from the little restaurants of your resort, and request that you are provided seclusion. You could have your resort arrange a table for you on the beach itself, and if it is a full-moon day, break bread with the partner of your heart under the silvery light of the moon. Or you could make things far less formal, and have a picnic dinner on the beach itself, a complete meal from your resort, enjoyed under the palm trees while lying on the silver sands, deciphering constellations in the star speckled sky. If you stay at a luxury resort such as Naladhu Maldives, you could sail into the Indian Ocean and enjoy a meal truly away from all that holds you to land.

The most important thing about lifelong relationships is keeping the romance alive. If you are already on vacation, if you have decided to make romantic Maldives your destination, you could easily take it up a notch and opt for a romantic dinner – or one every night for the entire duration of your stay! There is plenty of options to choose from.
