When selecting a resort in the Maldives, there are many factors to consider. First, depending on whether you can see the vibrant emerald-colored waters, experience the pristine coral reefs like those from the dawn of time, or encounter a wide variety of marine life, resorts can be classified as either “lagoon-focused” or “marine life-focused.” Additionally, the mode of transfer from the international airport in Mal\u00e9 to each resort island categorizes the destination into “speedboat regions,” “seaplane regions,” or “domestic flight regions,” which further guide your decision. <\/p>\n\n
