Our take

I would pick Riu Palace Maldivas for a straightforward all-inclusive holiday on Maafushi Island in Dhaalu Atoll. It has direct beach access and a private beach area, a year-round outdoor pool, a spa with sauna and a fitness centre, and rooms with balconies. Getting there means a domestic flight to Kudahuvadhoo, about 35 to 40 minutes from Malé, then a speedboat. Rated 9.1 from 251 reviews; boutique seekers should look elsewhere.

  • ✓Take advantage of the all-inclusive package to enjoy meals and drinks without worrying about extra costs.
  • ✓Spend an afternoon at the spa to fully relax and rejuvenate with the available treatments.
  • ✓Explore the house reef for some easy snorkeling right from the beach.

Why we love it

  • Direct beachfront access and sea views
  • Comprehensive all-inclusive offering
  • Relaxing spa and sauna facilities
  • Family-friendly atmosphere and pool
Why guests love it

Riu Palace Maldivas keeps a family holiday simple: the all-inclusive plan removes daily decisions about meals, the outdoor pool is open all year, and the private beach is steps from the rooms. Parents can take turns at the spa with sauna while children stay by the water. I would book a room with a balcony and plan the domestic flight to Kudahuvadhoo and the speedboat as part of arrival day.
