WATERFRONT MALDIVES VILLA

Sand-floor bars and thatched open-air restaurants lend a casual and unpretentious feel to this large and popular island.

Despite its size and ample facilities, Meeru retains a tranquil atmosphere. As with most of the larger islands in the Maldives, you’ll be allocated a main buffet restaurant for meals, depending on your room type and location. And while families adore it here, the resort has cleverly zoned adults-only facilities, including one of the main restaurants, a bar, and one of the two pools.

There are more facilities than what’s typical for the Maldives, including a nine-hole pitch and putt course, at night, there’s plenty going on with live bands, karaoke, and movie nights on rotation.

This offer sees you staying in a Waterfront Villa, straddling the water's edge and with its own sundeck and outdoor hot tub on a Full Board basis and includes a 20% hotel discount.

IMPORTANT…CHECK YOUR PASSPORTS
For travel to Europe and beyond ✈️

People have been getting caught out by this since the brexit change so I wanted to post to remind you again of the importance of checking your passports are in date!

Any additional months for you may of had on your passports, are no longer valid. Passports last 10 years from your issue date!

It’s also important to make sure you have at least 6 months left on your passport by the date of return. If your passport was issued in 2011/2012, then chances are you’ll need to renew or renew soon.

With travel on the rise this year, I’d hate to see anyone caught out
