We live in a world that makes us prone to burnout. So if you’ve been feeling less enthusiastic about the idea of going to work, meeting up with friends, or just doing your routine, then maybe it’s time to go to a holiday resort and spa in Maldives. Why the Maldives, you ask? Here’s why:

It’s the ultimate beach lover’s paradise.
If your idea of a perfect vacation involves the beach, you’ll be spoiled for choice when visiting the Maldives. With more than 1,200 coral islands, it’s safe to say that the Maldives is a country made for relaxation. The moment you arrive, you already know that you’re in paradise because all you see are crystal clear waters, coconuts, white sands, and endless sunshine. So prepare to pack a lot of swimsuits because that’s basically the only thing you’d want to wear while you’re on the island.
It’s a haven for adventure seekers.
Maldives may be more popularly known as a romantic destination, but it will also surprise you with the many adventures that you can find all throughout the country. Dream of swimming with sharks? There are more than 26 species on the island. Do you love scuba diving? The island has a lot of great diving spots with rich corals and marine life. Are you a water sport kind of person? Here, you can enjoy everything from parasailing to kayaking. You can even walk underwater if you want to.
It has amazing cuisine.
Dhivehi cuisine may not be as popular as French or Middle Eastern cuisine, but anyone who’s visited the Maldives will tell you that it’s one of the most amazing cuisines on the planet. With influences from India and Sri Lanka, Dhivehi cuisine celebrates the bounty of the island by putting local ingredients front and center. The result—dishes that tickle your taste buds in ways you can’t imagine. Smoked tuna shreds are used to make “Mas Huni,” a breakfast dish served with grated coconut, onions, and lemon. Then, there are fried yams for snacks, and of course, fish curry that’s typically made with mahi-mahi or tuna.
It has a unique nightlife.
Maldivian nightlife is anything but typical. While you can still find several clubs around the island, you can also opt for a more unique way to spend your evening. If you’re a fan of stargazing, how about sea stargazing? Vaadhoo Island is a 15-minute speedboat ride away from the mainland, where you can find what is called a “sea of stars” because of the bioluminescent water that makes the sea look like stars. Are you more of a fishing kind of person? Ask about night fishing options at your resort. And if you’re looking for something unique, watch—and place your bets—on a race of crabs.
The Maldives is on top of many people’s dream destinations for a reason. So if you’re looking to cure your burnout and escape to paradise, the island should be the perfect spot.
