A honeymoon is the first holiday a newly-married couple will take together, and most will want to make sure it is a special holiday. Much time will therefore be spent considering where to go. For many couples, the honeymoon is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to go somewhere really special, so they will happily spend a lot of money ensuring it is a magical time together. If you are a couple thinking about where to go for your upcoming honeymoon, why not consider the Maldives To help you make a decision either way, below we list five top reasons why this Indian Ocean destination might just be the perfect destination. 1. Paradise Location

If you have always liked the idea of holidaying on a paradise island and would love to spend quality time with your other half in true luxurious surroundings, a Maldives luxury holiday is definitely for you. The Maldives is an archipelago situated in the heart of the Indian Ocean. With hundreds of islands, you can expect many absolutely stunning beaches – think pristine white sands and warm, azure waters. As only 185 of the islands that make up the Maldives are inhabited, it is possible to take tours to some of the uninhabited islands, allowing you to sample what a deserted island is really like.

2. Spectacular Sea Life

There is plenty of opportunity for activities such as snorkelling and scuba diving while in the Maldives – and there is certainly much to see under the surface of the Indian Ocean. The seas around the islands are literally teeming with life, and there are many amazing colourful coral reefs that are definitely worth seeing.

3. Romantic Excursions

As the Maldives has long been a popular honeymoon destination, you can expect romance around every corner. Most resorts cater to honeymooning couples and provide fabulous excursions and experiences such as romantic sunset cruises, candlelit dinners on the beach, or island-hopping trips with a romantic picnic on a deserted island.

4. Luxurious Accommodation

There is no doubting the fact that the Maldives is a luxurious destination, and the many five-star resorts here are proof of that. Accommodation in most Maldives resorts is decorated to an extremely high standard, with rooms, suites and villas all equipped with everything the honeymooning couple could ever need to ensure a magical holiday. For those looking for a more private time together, there are some resorts that offer fabulous over-water villas with in-villa dining and even private plunge pools.

5. Attentive Staff

In most Maldives resorts, guests can enjoy being pampered and taken care of by attentive staff. If you are looking for a place to go where you will be treated almost like royalty, then the Maldives has to be a top choice. Tourism is an especially important industry in the islands and so hotels and resorts want to make sure that guests enjoy every moment of their stay. You are likely to be met with a smile wherever you go in the Maldives from friendly and welcoming locals.
