Most visitors only see one resort in the Maldives; this itinerary is a superb way to capture the essence of the archipelago in a little more depth without compromising on luxury. You’ll combine stays at the wonderful Four Seasons Kuda Huraa and Four Seasons Landa Giraavaru with 4 days travelling through the Male and Baa Atoll’s aboard the Four Seasons Explorer, a deluxe “liveaboard” catamaran.

Highlights include

  • Two days at the 5 star Four Seasons Kuda Huraa, a beautiful “garden island” with white sand beaches, just 25 minutes by speedboat from Male Airport.
  • Four days at the equally luxurious Four Seasons Landa Giraavaru, a larger island with a more remote, jungle feel and one of the Maldives largest natural lagoons.
