A veritable paradise for stunning Insta posts, reels and stories, the Maldives has so much amazing scenery, that it’s almost impossible to take a bad photo here. If you are looking to fill your feed with envy-inducing shots, here are some key places that will make your followers wish they were there too!
A Private Island Resort
If you want picture-perfect backdrops without the crowds (or photobombers!), a private island resort is the way to go. Head to an exclusive hideaway such as NH Collection Maldives Havodda Resort where powdery white sands, lush tropical greenery, and an aquamarine lagoon create the ultimate Instagram aesthetic. Snap dreamy beach walks at sunrise, a poolside photoshoot or a candlelit dinner under the stars.
Under the Waves
Who says Maldives tourist attractions are only above water? Bring or rent an underwater camera and capture a whole new world beneath the surface! Stay at a resort that has a thriving house reef and offers snorkelling and diving. Apart from colourful reef fish, you may spot an octopus or two, turtles and depending on the season and location, even sharks and manta rays to leave your followers in awe.
A Beach or Overwater Villa
Choose a beach pool villa with sunrise or sunset views for those magical shots at the beginning or end of the day. For something unique, that will get you plenty of ‘likes’ on Instagram, stay at an overwater pool villa where you can take some sublime pictures as a spellbinding sunset unfolds on the horizon. Pro tip: your private pool is perfect for a floating breakfast that’s guaranteed to make your feed pop!
An Island Spa Sanctuary
Ideal resorts in Maldives have spas that look like something straight out of a wellness magazine. This sanctuary of healing can be set amidst lotus ponds and swaying palms, creating an atmosphere of sublime serenity. Some will even feature a treatment suite where you can soak in a jacuzzi nestled in a charming garden. Snap some quintessential selfies and then get down to achieving your self-care goals!
