When it comes to dream vacations, the Maldives never fails to deliver. Picture-postcard scenery, crystal-clear waters as warm as a bath and teeming with a myriad of marine life, and footprint-free white sandy beaches shaded by swaying coconut palms and kissed by gently lapping waves. And that is just the beginning…

The Maldives’ chain of nearly 1,200 gorgeous islands that fan out across the Indian Ocean boasts some of the most luxurious hotels and retreats in the world. Think over-water bungalows with glass-bottomed floors, private plunge pools that seem to merge with the distant horizon, underwater restaurants where you can dine while watching turtles glide serenely past, and indulge in Eastern-inspired spa treatments that soothe the mind, body, and soul.

Many of the Maldives’ top-rated resorts offer half-board or full-board packages, in which breakfast-only or breakfast and dinner are provided as part of the nightly rate. However, when it comes to an all-inclusive option, there are a few properties that offer exceptional packages, some of which even include high-end liquor.

Here are some of the best All-Inclusive 5-Star Maldives Resorts that feature incredible accommodations, gourmet epicurean delights and world-class libations, luxurious spa and wellness treatments, and more. These beautiful retreats truly are the ultimate for living it up in style.
