Maldives Isn’t As Expensive As You Think!

#maldivestrip When people think of the Maldives, they often imagine sky-high prices and luxury resorts. But honestly, it doesn’t have to be that way! If you’ve got a high budget, sure—staying at a resort island is a dream come true. Think overwater villas, infinity pools, and days of pure relaxation. It’s the perfect spot to totally unwind and treat yourself. But if you’re on a smaller budget and still dreaming of the Maldives? Maafushi Island is your go-to. It’s a local island that gives you the full tropical experience without breaking the bank—and absolutely no regrets! One of the best parts? You can still enjoy exciting excursions like snorkeling, diving, and island hopping—without the hefty resort markup. These kinds of activities can get pretty pricey at private islands, but on Maafushi, they’re way more affordable. Location-wise, Maafushi is just a 30-minute speedboat ride south of Malé, the capital. Boats run from early morning (around 7am) to late at night (10pm), so getting there is super convenient. It’s actually one of the most developed local islands in terms of tourism, with smooth operations and good infrastructure.
