Looking for a Good Deal this autumn? Visit these Maldives Resorts During Shoulder Season


The Best 2024 Black Friday, Cyber Monday, & Travel Tuesday Deals in Maldives
Book now to save up to 40% off at the best Maldives resorts with these limited time offers

Updated August, 2023

The Maldives is always a sought-after destination for northerners looking to escape winter’s chill, but if you want to avoid the crowds and high-season rates, autumn is the time to go.

Good to know, September and October tend to be the cheapest months to vacay in the Maldives, and there’s a chance you’ll still get beautiful weather. Typically you won’t have to worry about anything more than an occasional passing shower or a few cloudy days (aka the perfect time to hit the spa!). Better still, many resorts offer drastic discounts during the off-season months, so it's possible to get a overwater bungalow at literally half the price you'd pay in the high season.

Below you’ll find a list our favorite water villa resorts that cut their rates way down outside of the high season in the Maldives.
