Hi Gina,

Is it Jumeirah Vittaveli or the other one on south islands atoll? I visit Vittaveli fairly regularly as I'm a client of F&B team so would be happy to answer any questions if you want to message me privately.

Best,

Gemma

hi Gina , it's all going to depend on your nationality and what your used to. As you would know Maldives is Muslim and very heavily believed and followed. I believe that unless you are used to that life you will find it quite hard and boring. Male' the capital is very small , almost 3rd world in living conditions for the locals and males rule. I work in Male' and have a female companion with me from Australia n she finds it quite difficult. you can mail me on "alsphone1304(@) g.m.a.i.l.com if u ewant to know more.
Regards
Alex
