The Maldives is a destination we’ve all imagined going to at some point. If there’s one thing that all travel guides and articles agree on, it’s that it’s an ideal paradise to visit thanks to its turquoise waters, white sandy beaches, and lush vegetation. It is also perfect for exploring at any time of the year, thanks to its warm climate.
You already know that one of our specialities is being present in the most incredible destinations in the world and helping you discover them. In 2019, we embarked on a new adventure in the Maldives, featuring two spectacular hotels: the Riu Palace Maldives and the Riu Atoll. They are located on the wonderful islands of Maafushi and Kedhigandu, in the Dhaalu Atoll, where they have made their home.
The two are connected by a walkway and have spectacular rooms built over the water. Surrounded by the Indian Ocean, they offer you an unforgettable experience. They also feature our 24h All Inclusive service that allows you to enjoy the full range of our services around the clock.
What can you do with RIU in the Maldives?
Our two hotels are ideal for everyone. Whether you are on a romantic trip with your partner, on your annual holiday with your group of friends, or indulging in a family treat with your kids, in our hotels you are sure to be entertained. Although if what you are really looking for is total relaxation and just lying on the sand, sunbathing and enjoying doing nothing, this is also the perfect place for that.
On the other hand, if you are one of those people who need to be active and not stop even during the holidays, the possibilities are endless. And of course, there is also an extensive daytime and evening entertainment programme, seven days a week! For the little ones too! They can have fun and make new friends at Club RiuLand.
Where should I stay in the Maldives?
If you are having doubts… don’t worry! Either of our two hotels is perfect for enjoying this paradise. We’ll tell you a little bit about each one to help you decide.
Riu Palace Maldives
If you choose this hotel, you will add an extra touch of luxury to your stay. With 176 rooms, it has a wide range of cuisine available, with four themed restaurants for your evening meal: the fusion “Krystal”, the Japanese “Yu Hi”, the Italian “Sofia”, and the Steakhouse. This is on top of the main buffet where you will find a multitude of international options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
There is also a pool bar with a water bar, a Sports Bar and a Lounge Bar where you can cool off with a delicious cocktail.
