Surprisingly, for such a romantic destination as Maldives, adult-only hotels are very rare. In fact, any resort is suitable for couples and only ones is devoted to holiday without children. Fortunately, in many resorts in Maldives families are not enough, and the romance is not difficult to find.

While most people consider the Maldives to be one of the best honeymoon destination, the number of families seeking to this magnificent archipelago is growing. But which an island without children is the best and with good diving, surfing and snorkeling in the Maldives? This is a very complex theme on several levels, but below we have compiled a list of 10 fantastic resorts where you probably rarely meet any family, at least in certain resort areas. Previously, resorts in the Maldives openly did not allow holidays with children, although today some restrict guests between the ages of 12-14.

If you really want to avoid the island with children, it is better to book a room outside of Christmas, Easter and school holidays a time when families travel with children. Also, it is worth to book a water villa (and not on the beach), that will allow you to significantly reduce the potential risk of meeting with moody babies. Even if the island has a some families with kids, you will hardly see them if you are accommodated in overwater villas.
