The Maldives is one of the world’s most wished-for honeymoon destinations and it is easy to see why: the resorts’ iconic water villas, under-the-stars dining on the beach and ear-caressing live music entertainment to bid farewell to the day are just some of images that conjure up when thinking about romance in the Maldives. Yet the times they are a-changin’ and it is no longer only lovebirds that flock to the islands – the Maldives has what it takes to be
a fully-fledged holiday destination for the entire family. The most important thing to keep in mind though? Choosing a resort suitable for families!

All resorts that cater to families of course pride themselves on long stretches of white beaches, shallow lagoons and swimming pools, however there are only so many hours a day when the youngsters can be kept entertained by carefree frolicking in the sun (regardless of the time of the year, it’s always hot in the Maldives!). Those resorts that understand that the youngest guests are those who require the most attention up their game with a myriad of activities, which not only result in days well spent, but also allow children to create memories of unique adventures that will stay with them for good.

Kuredu, the Maldives’ second largest resort, is a shining example of an island where experiences tailored for kids are abundant. Whether it be child-friendly accommodation (families travelling together often choose to stay in the Private Pool Family Suite, but there are also cheaper options available), dishes for the pickiest of eaters in buffet and a la carte restaurants, or the Maldives’ largest kids’ club, there definitely won’t be any ‘I want to go home!’ temper tantrums.

What’s more, children can feed their lust for adventure during water sports, diving and snorkelling, learn the ropes of golf, make friends in the kids’ pool and go (a little) crazy when a pod of dolphins reacts to their clapping during the sunset cruise.
