The Maldives has long been a favourite with families. Isolated island retreats in the turquoise Indian Ocean; soft white sand beaches, watersports, coral reefs and dolphins. Secluded tropical paradises fringed by palm trees. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that the hotel industry thrives here with a great choice of hotels for families. The best family hotels in the Maldives, however, do tend to be a touch on the expensive side when compared to other holiday destinations but these are after-all far-flung island resorts. However, many of the options are all-inclusive packages offering everything from Kids Clubs, free kayaks and snorkelling equipment, to inflatable waterparks and outdoor cinemas ensuring you get a lot for the price you pay. Our Hotel Gurus know the area well and have compiled a collection of the best family hotels in the Maldives chosen on their location, amenities, service and value. So why not browse through our collection and get going on planning that once-in-a-lifetime family break?
