Besides white sandy beaches, clear blue waters and delicious halal food, we've always been dreaming of staying in an overwater villa in Maldives. Besides, it's almost compulsory to stay in one if you're already planning to splurge right? :P

If you're not too sure you want to stay in an overwater villa every single day, most resorts allow a combination of accommodations. For instance, you can stay in a beach villa for a few days followed by a night in an overwater villa! And just in case you need more reasons to book your trip to Maldives, allow us to convince you here!
#HHWT Tip: If you want to save on accommodation, visit Maldives during the off-peak season (May to October)!
