Joali Maldives: A Paradise Island During This Festive Season

23 December 2020

As the festive month of December begins with Christmas and new year celebrations on the horizon, the thought of where and how to spend your festive holiday season this December will probably have crossed your mind. With the unpredictability 2020 has seen, most of us would be thinking about an escape to a relaxing new year’s eve destination with our loved ones, away from the weight of the world. While most countries remain closed or heavily restricted, the magical island nation of Maldives is ready to safely welcome you to its tropical sanctuary of wonder.

 

Apart from the allure of embracing an unforgettable adventure nestled amidst the Indian Ocean, December and January are the best months to visit Maldives with weather conditions that most travellers consider perfect. Temperatures hover around 29°C with minimal rainfall and low humidity, allowing you to experience the island’s phenomenal beauty in full glory. Whether you prefer doing everything and nothing at all by the beach—gently caressed by the island sun and ocean breeze—or chasing excitement in the great outdoors, you will find no better time and place to fulfill your heart’s desires.

 

While traveling during these times might present some concerns, you can be rest assured that the Ministry of Tourism has placed health and safety protocols for resorts to follow. Tourists and short-term visitors are required to present a negative COVID-19 test conducted 96 hours prior to their arrival in the country. With Joali Maldives, it is of utmost priority that all activities adhere to the World Health Organization and local authorities' health and safety standards. Therefore, you can soak in the Maldives holiday season with ease knowing that your well-being is being taken care of.

The Kids-Clubs of resorts in Maldives allow your children to participate in special activities such as treasure hunts, theater as well as art and crafts made from local items to enhance their creativity. Resorts also tend to keep their Kids-Clubs open till 10.00pm and this gives the opportunity for couples to enjoy their alone time.
