Why do you need a travel agent for the Maldives?

The Maldives, with its 26 atolls and more than 170 luxury resorts is THE dream destination for many. Yet, planning a trip to the Maldives is not always as easy as it seems.

For many, the Maldives will be a once-in-a-lifetime destionation and, therefore, making the right decision when choosing the resort is crucial. This is when the best agents for the Maldives come in.

By working with an experienced travel agent for the Maldives, you'll remove all the stress off your shoulders and will be sure to spend some memorable vacation.

What will the best Maldives travel agents do for you?

If the Maldives do not require a lot of organisation as for the itinerary, it does require a lot of knowledge to not fall into some traps.

All the beautiful resorts most people see online on social media are not always representative of the real Maldives experience. The best travel agents will guide you into choosing the right resort, i.e the one that does not only look good on pictures, but that actually offers a proper experience.

As luxury travel concierge and the best travel agents for the Maldives, we will assist you on the following points:

1. Understand your needs

Before suggesting our clients with any resort, our first step is to understand your needs, expectations and budget. This is the first thing we will ask you, right before asking for your expected travel dates.

It is crucial for us to fully understand what you are looking for in order to curate your perfect Maldives getaway. As top recommended travel agent for the Maldives, we will then be able to move to the next step and start looking for the resorts together.

2. We get the best rates for you

Helping you understand the Maldives and find a good resort is a good start. But that would not be enough to qualify us as best travel agents for the Maldives.

Indeed, what many people are after is obviously finding a good price. Or, better yet, a great price.

And this is where you are going to love us.

Indeed, thanks to our deep connections with our top recommend resorts and also through our access to the main Maldives suppliers, we are able to get some rates that you would never find online (on booking platforms or directly on the resort's website).

This is why our clients often recommend us as their preferred travel agent for the Maldives. Just test us on this, we guarantee you that you won't be disappointed.

3. Look for the best matching resort(s) for you

Now that we have understood what would best suit your needs, we'll use our knowledge to offer a selection of resorts that will be good matches for you.

This recommendation is not just about a budget range. A lot of criteria come into play when looking for a resort in the Maldives and that's why the best travel agents are required when booking the Maldives.

Among the many criteria, we can think of:

Type of villa
The reason of your trip (honeymoon, family trip, business trip,...)
Size of the island
Meal board (Breakfast only, half board, full board or all inclusive)
The interest (or not) for snorkeling and water activities
The location and distance from Male
Presence of kid's club
Sports activity
Events (is it more like a quiet or active island?)
Which tailored experience you may want (cruises, underwater dining, snorkeling with mantas/whale sharks,...)

Taking into account all these criteria, we then produce a selection that will suit you.

4. Everyone's happy? Let's book it!

Once you are happy with the resort and you confirm the rate that we shared with you, the next step is to proceed with the booking.

And, one more time, nothing on your shoulder. We take care of everything for you, as the #1 rated travel agent for the Maldives.

We will also take care of checking all the conditions associated with the booking, like the cancellation policy, the inclusion or not of the transfers, the details of your meal board and so on. Everything is made so that your experience to the Maldives is as smooth as possible. And this starts from before you even land in the Maldives.

Why we are the best Maldives travel agents

Claiming to be the best Maldives travel agent is easy. Proving it might be more complicated. So, why should you trust us and why are we better than anyone else?

We consider that there are 4 words that define us and that explain why our clients recommend us to their friends as the best travel agents for the Maldives. Availability, Proximity, Competitivity and Knowledgeability.

Availability
We are reachable 7 days per week, 365 days per year

When we've created The Resorts Collection, we've put into it everything that we loved about any company we've worked with before. And tried to get rid of everything that we do not like when dealing with a business. With our very high level of exigence, we've come to become the most recommended and favorite travel agents for the Maldives.

The first point that is extremely important to us, and, of course, to our clients, is our availability. When you love what you do, you are never working. This totally applies to us.

Therefore, there is never a moment where our client's messages are too late, or too early, or on the wrong day. No matter the day, no matter the time (as long as we are not sleeping), we will answer in a glimpse of an eye. Our preferred communication method with our clients is through WhatsApp, so we are able to deliver ultra fast answer to any query people would have. This is the first reason why people consider us the best travel agents for the Maldives.

Proximity
We know our clients and all their preferences

This is something else than make us special.

We are very far away from the big travel agency with 100+ employees who do their 9 to 5 and do not particularly care about getting to know their clients. They are not involved enough.

We are only 2 people, Florian and Lucinda, and you will always be speaking to either one, or the other. In both cases, WE will know you. We will know all your preferences, your habits, what you like or don't like, and this will enable us to curate the most personalised experience for you.

By doing so, we manage to stand out from a vast majority of our competition and offer something that our clients won't find elsewhere.

Competitivity
Our rates are extremely competitive

Being competitive is of course one of the reasons why we are referred to as the best travel agents in the Maldives.

Indeed, thanks to our excellent relations with the resorts and our access to the main suppliers of the Maldives, we can often get you discounts between 10 to 20% compared to the cheapest rate you would find online. When we talk about 10K+ bookings (very often, it is more around 25-30K bookings), this difference is significant for our clients and we are always super happy to help them achieve such good rates.

But, why are we better than an other travel agent for the Maldives when it comes to pricing? Well, each agent applies his own markup (commission). We love what we do and we believe that being competitive and offering the best rates is one of the most important thing. Therefore, we are not trying to maximise our margins. On the opposite, we have some of the lowest margins in the market, and therefore, the best possible rates. This is, one more time, why most of our clients recommend us to their friends and keep booking all their holidays with us.

Knowledgeability
We know the Maldives!

Finally, the fourth reason why we are recommended as the best travel agents for the Maldives is because we know what we are talking about.

Indeed, compared to some agencies who would recommend you places they've never been to, we do recommend you mostly the places we have personally approved. If we recommend you a place we have not been, it is only because we have had confirmations from close friends in the industry who have been and approved the place for us.

Either way, you can trust us in recommending you the best resorts for the Maldives and we'll always have the same focus in mind: make your experience as memorable as possible.

Our clients' frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Here are the most frequent questions that our clients often ask us regarding their trip to the Maldives:

When is the best time to visit the Maldives?
This is one of the most frequent questions about the Maldives. When should you go? Is December to April really the best time of the year to travel to the Maldives? Well...yes and no!

With climate change, the weather has become absolutely unpredictable in the Maldives. Yes, it is true that you have more chances of having sun from December to April, but you'll pay a significant premium on the price for it. At the same time, you could have a week of rain in February while having full sun and perfect conditions in June.

What does this mean?
There is no real "bad" month for the Maldives anymore and you can travel there all year long. The temperatures are always between 27 to 33° and the sea temperature rarely goes below 29°. The perfect dream destination!

How far in advance should you book for the Maldives?
This is an other very good question that does not really have a simple answer.

Indeed, most resorts will have pretty flexible cancellation policies. This means that you can book 1 year in advance and cancel and rebook anytime should you find a better deal in between.

There aren't really "last minute discounts" so there's no need to try this strategy as it rarely pays off.

What are the best resorts for honeymoon in the Maldives?
This question is hard to answer without knowing our client's expectation. This is why you need the best travel agent in the Maldives to be answer this.

Yet, in general, we would always recommend small properties for a better exclusivity feeling, something quiet and ideally with age restriction (like no children below 9yo for instance).

For this special occasion, you will want everything to be perfect, and therefore, we would highly recommend you some of our top luxury resorts like Anantara Kihavah, Milaidhoo, Joali, Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru, Kudadoo, Huvafen Fushi or Park Hyatt Hadahaa, to name but 8.
