Detail Itinerary of Maldives Luxury Tour
Day 1 — Arrival in Malé & Transfer to Anantara Dhigu
Your Maldives luxury holiday begins at Velana International Airport on Hulhulé Island, next to Malé. A Peregrine representative meets you in the arrivals hall and assists you to the Anantara airport lounge.
From the lounge, a speedboat carries you across South Malé Atoll in about 30 minutes. Anantara Dhigu sits on Dhigufinolhu Island, inside a wide turquoise lagoon shared with two sister resorts.
Your Villa Host welcomes you at the jetty and introduces the resort, its restaurants, and the spa. Standard check-in starts at 2:00 pm.
Spend the afternoon at your Beach Pool Villa. Swim in your plunge pool, rest on the sun deck, or walk straight into the lagoon.
In the evening, dinner is served at Fushi Café, the resort’s beachfront restaurant.
Meals: Dinner
Overnight: Anantara Dhigu, Sunrise or Sunset Beach Pool Villa, subject to availability and selected rate.
Day 2 — Lagoon Snorkeling & Island Leisure
After breakfast, visit the Aquafanatics water sports center and collect complimentary snorkeling equipment for your stay. The shallow lagoon suits relaxed snorkeling over sand and coral patches, where reef fish and rays are common.
The Beach Pool Villas do not sit directly beside a reef suitable for immediate house-reef snorkeling. Guests can explore the shallow lagoon with complimentary equipment, while guided trips to nearby reefs or designated snorkeling areas can be arranged at additional cost.
For richer reef snorkeling, book an optional guided boat trip to nearby reefs. These trips cost extra and are led by Aquafanatics guides.
Later, take out a complimentary kayak or stand-up paddleboard. The sheltered lagoon gives calm water and open views toward the overwater villas of Anantara Veli.
The rest of the day stays free for your pool, the beach, or a walk along the island’s sandy paths. Dinner tonight can be at Sea.Fire.Salt, the resort’s overwater grill, where some dishes carry a supplement.
Meals: Breakfast and dinner
Overnight: Anantara Dhigu, Sunrise or Sunset Beach Pool Villa, subject to availability and selected rate.
Day 3 — Premium Sunset Catamaran Cruise
After breakfast, the morning and early afternoon are free. You can relax at your villa or join the resort’s morning yoga session.
Optional activities include surf trips, surf lessons, and scuba diving with the Aquafanatics PADI 5-Star dive center. Families can also use the Dhoni Kids Club, which welcomes children from age three.
In the late afternoon, you board a premium catamaran for the included sunset cruise. The crew serves canapés with mocktails or cocktails as the boat moves through the atoll.
Sunset in the Maldives falls between about 6:00 and 6:30 pm year-round. Spinner dolphins often appear in South Malé Atoll at dusk, though sightings are never guaranteed.
You return to Dhigu after dark for a relaxed dinner at the resort.
Meals: Breakfast and dinner
Overnight: Anantara Dhigu, Sunrise or Sunset Beach Pool Villa, subject to availability and selected rate.
Day 4 — Spa & Dine-Around Experience
After breakfast, enjoy your signature spa treatment at the overwater Anantara Spa. Glass panels beneath the treatment beds show the lagoon and its fish below you.
The afternoon stays free. Play on the resort tennis court or return to your pool. Motorized water sports through Aquafanatics cost extra.
In the evening, a complimentary pontoon boat takes you to Anantara Veli in about a minute for your dine-around dinner. Choose Baan Huraa for Thai food over the water, or Origami for modern Japanese food and teppanyaki.
Reservations apply, and some premium menu items carry a supplement. Origami’s teppanyaki runs in two seatings, at 6:30 pm and 8:30 pm.
Anantara Veli is an adults-only resort. Families staying at Dhigu can still book dinner there between 6:30 pm and 9:30 pm.
Meals: Breakfast and dinner
Overnight: Anantara Dhigu, Sunrise or Sunset Beach Pool Villa, subject to availability and selected rate.
Day 5 — Departure
Enjoy a final breakfast and a last swim in the lagoon or your plunge pool. Check-out is at 12:00 noon, and late check-out is subject to availability.
The resort schedules your speedboat around your flight time. After the 30–35 minute ride back to Velana International Airport, Peregrine assists with your departure.
Many guests continue to Colombo, Dubai, or Doha. Colombo is about 1.5 hours away by air, making Sri Lanka an easy addition.

One Resort, No Hotel Changes
You check in once and stay four nights. Your time goes into the villa, the lagoon, and the spa, not into packing and transfers.

Luxury Experiences Already Included
The sunset catamaran cruise, the spa treatment, and the non-motorized water sports come in the package price. You add optional extras only if you want them.

Stay in a Private Beach Pool Villa
Your villa opens directly onto the beach, with a private plunge pool, a sun deck, and loungers. The lagoon begins a few steps from your terrace.
Inside, warm wood finishes and a large bed create a calm, private space. The open-air bathroom includes a freestanding terrazzo tub surrounded by tropical plants.
Sunset or Sunrise View
Sunset villas face west and catch the evening light over the water. Sunrise villas face east, catch the morning sun, and keep the deck shaded in the afternoon.
Your preferred view is subject to availability at the time of booking. Peregrine confirms the villa view in your quote.

Maldives Luxury Tour Information
The information below covers the practical details for your stay. Entry rules can change, so Peregrine confirms the latest requirements before you travel.
Visa & Entry
The Maldives grants a free 30-day tourist visa on arrival to eligible travelers. You do not need pre-approval if you meet the entry requirements.
- Passport: The official rule requires a machine-readable passport valid for at least one month. We recommend a 6-month validity period because airlines and transit countries often require it.
- Travel documents: Carry a confirmed return or onward ticket and your confirmed resort booking.
- Funds: Immigration officers may request proof of sufficient funds.
- IMUGA Traveler Declaration: Submit this free online form within 96 hours before arrival and again within 96 hours before departure.
- Children: Every child needs their own passport.
- Israeli passports: Entry restrictions can vary by nationality. Check the latest Maldives Immigration requirements before departure.
Currency
The local currency is the Maldivian Rufiyaa (MVR). The resort bills in US dollars, and major credit cards are accepted. Small US dollar notes help with tips.
Climate
The Maldives stay warm all year, with daytime highs around 30–31°C (86–88°F). Nights rarely fall below 25°C (77°F).
Best Time to Travel
December to April is the dry season, with calmer seas and more sunshine. Prices peak in this period, especially around Christmas and New Year.
May to November brings more rain and wind, usually as short, heavy showers. Resort rates are often lower in these months.

Packing
Pack light clothing, swimwear, a rash guard, a hat, sunglasses, and reef-safe mineral sunscreen. Add a light layer for air-conditioned rooms and evening boat rides.
A dry bag protects your phone during the catamaran cruise. Bring your own mask if you prefer a personal fit, although the resort supplies equipment.
Health & Safety
You need a yellow fever certificate only if you arrive from, or transit through, a country with a yellow fever risk. Carry prescription medicine in its original packaging with a copy of the prescription.
The midday sun is strong, so plan shade between noon and 3:00 pm. Never touch coral or marine life while snorkeling. The speedboat ride can feel choppy, especially from May to October. Take seasickness medication beforehand if you feel motion sickness easily.
Divers should not fly within 24 hours of their last dive. Schedule any optional dives for Day 2 or Day 3. Buy travel insurance that covers water sports, medical evacuation, and trip cancellation.
Local Customs
The Maldives is a Muslim country. On inhabited islands and in Malé, cover your shoulders and knees. Swimwear is fine at the resort.
Alcohol
Alcohol is served at resorts, not on inhabited local islands. The Maldives bans the import of alcohol and pork products, so leave duty-free bottles behind.
Connectivity
Resort Wi-Fi is available in the villas and public areas. Dhiraagu and Ooredoo sell local SIM cards and eSIMs at the airport.
Electricity
The Maldives uses 230V and 50Hz power. Type G three-pin plugs are most common, so pack a universal adapter. Local time is GMT+5.
Tipping
Resort bills already include a 10% service charge. Extra tips are optional, and many guests tip their Villa Host in US dollars at check-out.
