Why not choose Maldives for your upcoming Easter Holidays

With Easter falling towards the beginning  of the summer season, it’s one of the best times of the year to visit the Maldives.  Long languid days of sunshine, sugary white beaches, warm clear ocean and exotic flora, you will be hard-pressed to find more beauty than all this chain of islands has to offer. Easter could not be more aptly spent than in this tropical paradise brimming with life. We have selected some of the most picturesque resorts for you to consider as your Easter holiday destination.

Conrad Rangali

Conrad Rangali resort is set on a private island in the Maldives – it’s like being lost in paradise in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Apart from free snorkelling opportunities there are many paid options that will make your holiday memorable.  Enquire about the water jet packs, fishing expeditions and whale-shark trips. There are options for both an adrenaline rush as well as extreme relaxation in the spa or on a sunset cruise. Quite often you don’t even need to leave your water villa with marine visitors spotted in the water. Look out for reef sharks, spotted rays and a plethora of other sea life happy to be admired from the comfort of your deck. That in itself will entertain the children, but if you are keen for some alone time, qualified staff are allocated to entertain your young ones, so bring the whole family for a well-earned holiday.
