1⃣️Transportation✈️🚁
✈️
We traveled from Chengdu to Bangkok to Male, a total of nearly 12h, with a 4h layover in Bangkok. Make sure not to buy a ticket with a transit visa mark when purchasing tickets, just buy a through ticket and you can transfer inside the airport without a transit visa.
🚁Male to Fulidhoo, we took a seaplane to and from the island. The waiting lounge in Male had a great environment with free snacks, WIFI, massage chairs, rest areas, etc. The hotel arranges the seaplane schedule in advance according to the flight time. I recommend choosing a seaplane if possible, as you can enjoy the view of countless resort islands floating in the vast ocean during the flight, like pearls, and savor the gifts of nature!
2⃣️Choosing an Island🏝️🏖️
Our island selection was very rushed this time, receiving the hotel's confirmation only three or four days before departure, as it was a last-minute decision to vacation in the Maldives. Thanks to the very professional island selection assistant for their help and patient answers!
Fulidhoo is a luxurious five-star island, and for me, it offers great value for money! Its facilities, services, scenery, and dining are all perfectly matched with its price. Upon arrival, our Chinese butler Simon helped us get familiar with the island, book various activities, and was ready to answer any questions. The service was very enthusiastic, so friends who are not good at English need not worry, just go for it!
Since it was our first time in the Maldives, we wanted to experience it all, so we booked 2 nights in a sunset pool water villa➕2 nights in a beach villa.
🏖️Water Villa: I must say, the view from the water villa is truly breathtaking! At sunset, the sun reflected on the pool surface looks like a round egg yolk, very impressive, and the afterglow of the sunset on the sea forms an orange sea, very dreamy! The snorkeling environment near the water villa is not bad, with more beautiful fish around the living corals. There are baby sharks, devil fish, nimo... near the lagoon area. Be careful of the big waves near the breakwater. The water villa has all the popular elements like a net bed, outdoor bathtub, infinity pool, Maldivian gazebo!
🏕️Beach Villa: Comes with a private beach for relaxation, with good privacy, and basic facilities like a gazebo and lounge chairs. It's very chill to lie on the beach and daydream in your free time. The beach villa has many cute little creatures, such as geckos, lizards, bats... Overall, the environment is very ecological, but the overall facilities are not as good as the water villa, not on the same level.
3⃣️Dining🥙🥘
We upgraded to the AI all-inclusive package, which included three meals a day, unlimited refills of soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, and mini bar drinks with the AI mark! We were given a three-course meal at the Asian restaurant once, which was very exquisite. We ate at the main restaurant every day, with different dishes every day, basically no repeats, but mostly Indian, Italian, Mexican, and local Maldivian flavors, so if you're not too demanding about dining, you'll definitely be satisfied!
Overall, this trip was perfect, the whole island was filled with a romantic atmosphere, making us, a couple visiting the Maldives for the first time, have a full experience. We finally understand why the Maldives is a honeymoon destination and can fulfill all the romantic fantasies of women. This journey can be said to be worthwhile!

A guide on how to choose a hotel in the Maldives!
Having visited so many islands, the Maldives is still NO.1 in my heart!
The holiday experience is too comfortable, unlike other islands, the Maldives is set up with 'one island one hotel', there is no need to leave the hotel, sea outings and other arrangements are all taken care of by the hotel, one-stop service~
Especially suitable for those who like a lazy holiday, and don't want to rush around.
Today's Maldives guide is mainly about choosing an island. I have divided it into four price ranges, from expensive luxury seven-star islands to cost-effective four-star islands, each range has its own recommendations!
Super first-line expensive islands
For those sisters who pursue the ultimate holiday, you can consider this range, the highest star islands in the Maldives are these seven-star islands. Expensive islands do well in environment, privacy, service and other aspects, at this price you can almost blindly choose without making a mistake, definitely enjoying the highest-end experience
St. Regis Resort
Keywords: ins check-in place, modern decoration, good service
Price: per capita 3w
White Horse Manor
Keywords: luxury, fresh, Guerlain SPA
Price: per capita 4w+
Velaa Private Island
Keywords: luxury private island, rich activities, family-friendly
Price: per capita 4w
Very nice six-star islands
Beili World
Keywords: fresh, Nordic style, ins style
Price: per capita 2.5w
Four Seasons
Keywords: six-star basic island, small weddings, mini submarines
Price: per capita 2.5w
Jolie Island
Keywords: girl's dream, check-in holy land, must eat fat island
Price: per capita 3w
Pursuit of cost-effective five-star islands
Five-star islands start to focus on cost-effectiveness!
Maldives hotels are all very well equipped with holiday facilities, no need to worry too much, service and dining are not bad
Kandima Island
Keywords: ins style, delicious food
Price: around 1w per capita
Fulawari Island
Keywords: dog-abusing couple island, underwater restaurant, great diving spot
Price: per capita 1.2w
Better than Sanya's four-star islands
Four-star islands are really the economical choice!
Generally, four-star islands have been open for a long time, unlike new hotels that focus on design, the rooms will look old. But if you choose carefully, you can still find good ones!
Famous four-star island Blue Banana, per capita 5k, both sand house and water house, coral reefs are well preserved, sisters who like snorkeling, super A economical snorkeling island can have!
Eat super good Bandos Island!
Salty fish also need to have an alternative, per capita 3k+, so affordable to tears! Three restaurants and three bars to choose from, it's the top food island in the four-star category
Ritifar Island
The C-position island in the four stars is all-inclusive, per capita 7k! Has beautiful coral reefs A-level snorkeling spot

JOALI BEING Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
The beauty of Maldives Jolie Being is extremely high
The beauty of Maldives Jolie Being🌴 is extremely high.
It's been a week since I returned from the Maldives, and I'm still immersed in the joy of vacation and don't want to return to reality. I brought a dozen clothes and chose the residential island➕vacation island. Apart from the regret of not being able to play with the parasol, I am quite satisfied with the choice of Jolie Being on the holiday island. The service and the beautiful scenery are memorable. It would be better if Jolie Being could provide a floating breakfast.
I want to go to the Maldives a billion times more
I want to go to the Maldives a billion times more
Although it's something from the middle of the year, every time I flip through the album to the photos of the Maldives, I will stop and look at it over and over again. I really, really, really like the jelly sea in the Maldives. Every day there is either soaking in the sea or watching the sea.
This year I chose the delicate twin islands, the two islands are completely different feelings, but both in details and service gave me a very good experience. Personally, I will like Being a bit more
I hope I can find time to go to the Maldives again next year
Maldives | Macaron-colored JOALI BEING
Maldives | Macaron-colored JOALI BEING🌊🐬
🐬Joali Being
🤿Snorkeling Level: A
🏝️Beach Level: A
🐬About the pick-up
There is only one direct flight from Shanghai to Male, arriving at 18:30, by which time there are no seaplanes, so you have to stay in a local hotel for the night. The hotel will have staff to pick you up from the airport, and around 8pm that night they will inform you of the seaplane time for the next day. The next day, the hotel will take you to the airport to meet with Joali staff, check in your luggage, and then arrange for you to rest in the exclusive waiting lounge while waiting for the seaplane. The waiting lounge is very large and clean, with free food and drinks🆓
🐬About the hotel:
Why choose JOALI? Because you can experience a double island tour, JOALI & JOALI BEING, with a 15-minute speedboat ride between the two islands, it's very convenient, seamless, and the butlers will arrange everything very well, not troublesome at all! Let's talk about JOALI BEING first, their main focus is a wellness hotel, it's quite quiet, and every day's meals are carefully prepared by nutritionists! The food is a bit light!
🐬About the room:
Joali understands the sense of ceremony, there will be exclusive bicycles at the door, and your own nameplate, if you can't ride🚴, the butler will help you change to a tricycle. The room is macaron-colored, full of girlish heart! But there are no sockets at the head of the bed, each water house has its own private pool, sitting on the net bed watching the sunset🌅, it's too beautiful! The hardware facilities are very good, with independent wash bags, and the bathrobes are very comfortable😌
🐬About the food:
The online reviews say that being is not very tasty, but I think it's commendable, there are still delicious things to eat, it's just that there may not be as many types of breakfast and dinner as Joali, Joali has more choices!

Maldives Joali being
Continue to recall joali being
First of all, the concept of recuperation plus the experience in joali a few days ago was too good, we were all looking forward to it before we went, but the actual feeling is not the same haha, not to say it's not good but even if we go to joali again, we won't go to being nearby
———————————————
👉🏻Hotel room + island environment
Stayed in a water house, the color scheme is more girlish but the room and pool are smaller than joali, the bike is cute, with a custom sign.
But the water houses are too close to each other, a slight turn of the head can be said to be a full view, the couple next door snorkeling directly to our pool, accidentally heard quite a lot, private space still has to choose a sand house.
———————————————
👉🏻Island activity project
Morning yoga, highly recommended, starts at 7 o'clock, the location is in a shed (?) at one end of the island (I don't know how to describe it but facing the sea is very beautiful)
Spa did the hotel's main push of four pillars, also specially paid extra to choose to do it in a sea water house with a transparent floor, the evaluation is very average, the environment is average, the essential oil is average, the massage is average, two people nearly 7k......
The rest are various spa treatments, gave a cryotherapy is also okay (sister played good days for me all the way)
———————————————
P16-18👉🏻Hotel meals
Like joali, it includes breakfast and dinner, the main push is recuperation, each meal on the menu is marked with calories, fat and other content
Breakfast has a lot of variety, the environment is also good directly to the beach. Dinner is average, just remember the portion is not small, eat very full, joali is better
———————————————
🤫Small complaints
There are no outlets on both sides of the bed, the reason is to let guests completely relax and not look at the phone before bed
The butler we were assigned at being can only be described as 'unprofessional', it really affects the stay experience. But because she is a young girl and also polite so we are not good to say harsh words or complain, and also gave tips as usual (later regretted not expressing real thoughts)......
💔On the first day of check-in, we were made to sit at the front desk for more than two hours, although it was not check-in time but we only had that time for island hopping, wanted to ask her what we could experience first but did not want to sit idle but did not reply to messages, later we found a restaurant colleague to call to contact; pick-up and drop-off late, dining does not matter but some activities late will affect the teacher's class; when leaving the hotel, all the butlers are at the front desk to see off except ours, just disappeared silently (this should be the most basic etiquette of a vacation hotel, right)
Overall experience is still comfortable and pleasant (aside from the butler problem), but we all prefer joali
The Standard, Maldives Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Stunning everywhere and can’t wait to go again - Fun in the sun part#2
The best experience ever at The Standard Huruvalhi Maldives, mesmerizing blue skies and cleanest waters with Sunden customer service. I can’t describe the experience but you will have to try it out! #thestandardhuruvalhi #funinthesun #maldive

The Standard Huruvalhi Maldives Hotel - The vibrant and bright colors are perfect for a vacation with girlfriends or couples
Having stayed at The Standard Hotels in Bangkok and Huaxin, coming to The Standard in Maldives made me completely fall in love with this colorful brand! Just as the seaplane landed, I was amazed by the island - Oh my god! What a heavenly hotel! The bright colors and fashionable design, I really like it! The design of the BBQ restaurant by the sea is particularly great - super romantic! The next day, I had a lot of seafood for dinner - the taste was superb!
The Standard is a boutique hotel group from the United States - currently has more than a dozen boutique design hotels worldwide, each with its own style! The Huruvalhi Maldives Hotel is located in the Raa Atoll, just a 35-minute seaplane ride from Male International Airport - from the atoll lake to the beach, use the soft heat wave of the Maldives to cure fatigue and start a romantic and relaxed exclusive holiday!
The hotel adds a touch of vitality to the natural style, which also adds more colors to the Maldives beyond the blue sky, white clouds, and sea - modern fashion is a major characteristic of The Standard hotels that attracts young people, using bright decorations to present a sense of openness and jump that is different from other resorts - if you also like the design of casual and fashionable young vacation hotels, at the Huruvalhi Maldives Hotel, the rich colors and full of fashion elements, very suitable for girlfriends and couples to vacation - this hotel will definitely not let you down!
Travel around the Maldives Atoll
Travel around the Maldives Atoll, originally at The Standard, a US brand
This trip to the Maldives was quite sudden, because of my friend Ellen's invitation. I flew from Bangkok to Male and didn't expect to have not visited any place except for Male, the smallest capital in the world. I traveled to all the islands from north to south and stayed for a month.
The delicate white sandy beach and the azure sky enjoy the gorgeous sunset every day, tasting rare ingredients from all over the world. However, I don't know if it's the chef's taste buds or the cooking methods that are more suitable for Westerners, but none of the meals make me give a thumbs up.
Until I moved into The Standard.
This is an American brand, with two rows of colorful cabins, as if building a fairy tale world.
This place is especially suitable for a family or a group of friends to travel together. Choose a water villa with two rooms, equipped with all-white snorkeling equipment in the room. You can have a party in the balcony pool together or play in the sea together by jumping from the handrail on the side.
The first meal is Maldivian traditional cuisine called Guduguda, which is an onomatopoeic word for the sound of water being drawn for smoking shisha.
We sat on the beach, candles lit, champagne poured, from lobster to tuna, from beef to chicken, served on DEGRENE tableware from Paris, seasoned with coconut milk and various spices, the curry was full of exotic flavors.
The second meal is the best sunset restaurant at the end of the island. The roof is full of bamboo lampshades, and from sashimi to beef to sushi, dishes are served one by one until the stars fill the sky. A star hangs under the crescent moon, making it incredibly romantic.
The third meal is Chinese food, a table of Chinese food specially made by the chef of a Japanese restaurant. Although it is not at all the cooking method and taste of Chinese food, the spicy taste of the beef soup that night was still satisfying enough.
The only thing that was not satisfying was the breakfast here, so I ordered the floating breakfast and had fun playing in the room pool while eating.
Days at TheStandard feel so leisurely and carefree, where you can wear pajamas or swimsuits, ride bicycles and daydream between the beach and restaurants.
In the room, you can see small sharks and Ray, and you can also ask the hotel to arrange a boat trip to the sea. Within 20 minutes of snorkeling, you can see the beautiful scenery comparable to the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
Hold onto a peaceful tranquility, and guard a serene heart.
This is my last stop in the Maldives, and also the last day of this month. Next, I will return to Thailand and stay at The Standard in Hua Hin and Bangkok. Looking forward to it.
