Our Maldives packages from India start at ₹29,900 per person per night on a beach villa and ₹37,900 over the water. That’s a complete land package: the villa, private transfers, all meals and the island’s activities. The only thing priced separately is your airfare, quoted from your city.
IMAD Travel has been arranging Maldives tour packages since 2011, mostly for honeymoon couples, with families making up most of the rest. We contract directly with the resorts instead of reselling a wholesaler’s stock, so the prices on this page are real ones we’ll put in writing. Indian passport holders get a free 30-day visa on arrival, so there’s no visa application, no fee and no appointment.
A single service can be booked on its own. If you already have flights, we’ll book just the resort and transfers.
Plan your Maldives trip: tell us your dates, how many of you are travelling and your departure city. Vipasha will send island options the same working day.

A Maldives trip from India costs from ₹29,900 per person per night for the land package on a beach villa, and from ₹37,900 over the water. Add airfare from your city and, for some islands, a seaplane transfer. Every quote breaks down into those three parts.
People look up the Maldives trip cost from India and get answers that are wildly different. Usually that’s because they’re comparing different holidays with the same name. A ₹25,000 “Maldives package” is almost always a room-only bed in a guesthouse on a local island. A private-island resort with a dining plan, a transfer and a named villa is a different trip, and that’s the one on this page.
Here’s how a Maldives trip cost from India is made up:
| Part of the cost | What decides it | How we quote it |
|---|---|---|
| Land package | Island, villa category, meal plan, season | Per person per night, in ₹, in writing |
| Transfer | Speedboat or seaplane, set by the island | Included in the land package |
| Airfare | Your departure city and how early you book | Quoted separately from your city |
| On-island spend | Meal plan: almost nothing on all-inclusive, a lot on room-only | We tell you which before you book |
The villa is the big number, and it’s a choice rather than a fixed cost. The number that catches people out is almost never the villa. It’s meals and transfers, the two things a headline rate quietly leaves out. If an agent gives you one blended figure, ask which of the three parts is missing.
Maldives packages cost between ₹29,900 and ₹79,000 per person per night across the six islands we publish, with the ultra-luxury villas above that. That’s the land package only, on twin sharing.
We quote per person per night because that’s the number you’re actually choosing between when you pick a villa. The land package is the same wherever in India you fly from. The resort doesn’t charge differently by city; only the airfare changes.
| What it is | From, per person per night | |
|---|---|---|
| Beach villa | Your feet on sand from the doorstep. Garden or beachfront, the classic Maldivian room, and the reef a short swim away. | ₹29,900 |
| Water villa | Built on stilts over the lagoon. You wake to water under the floor and steps straight down into it. | ₹37,900 |
| Beach villa with private pool | The beach villa, plus a pool that belongs only to you. For people who want the sand and the privacy. | ₹52,500 |
| Water villa with private pool | The one everybody pictures when they say "Maldives". Over the lagoon, own pool, own deck, nobody in sight. | ₹52,100 |
| Ultra-luxury | Milaidhoo's water pool villas, Huvafen Fushi's Cube. Butler service, underwater dining, an island of 44 homes. | ₹1,00,300 |
This is the part most people get wrong. They assume the water villa is the expensive leap and quietly settle for a beach room, but usually it isn’t. At Kuramathi a water villa on full board is ₹37,900 per person a night, which is less than a beach villa on some other islands. The step that costs real money is the private pool, not the water.
So before you rule anything out, tell us your number and we’ll show you which island puts you over the lagoon within it.
We publish six private-island resorts, from a walkable family island at ₹29,900 per person a night to a 44-villa hideaway with an underwater spa. We contract with many more. If you’ve seen an island and set your heart on it, ask. We can very likely book it, often at a rate that isn’t published anywhere.
| Island | Beach or deluxe villa | Water villa | Water villa with private pool |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kuramathi | ₹29,900 | ₹37,900 | — |
| Velassaru | ₹35,000 | ₹59,500 | ₹66,800 |
| Dhigali | ₹44,800 | ₹53,900 | ₹69,200 |
| Baros | ₹46,000 | ₹60,200 | ₹73,200 |
| Huvafen Fushi | ₹64,800 | ₹79,000 | ₹1,67,600 |

Per person per night, twin sharing, land package only. Airfare quoted separately from your city. Resort contracts are held in USD and converted at 1 USD = ₹97 (2 October 2026); we confirm the rupee figure in writing when we quote. Rates move through the year, so we quote your exact dates. Full villa-by-villa rates are on each island’s page.
Which island suits whom:
We build every Maldives tour package around the resort, not a fixed itinerary, because in the Maldives the resort is the holiday. These are the shapes most Indian travellers book:
| Package | Length | The shape |
|---|---|---|
| Maldives honeymoon package | 5 Days 4 Nights | Beach villa, with the last nights upgraded to an overwater villa |
| Maldives family package | 6 Days 5 Nights | Two-bedroom or connecting beach villa, kids' club, speedboat island |
| Maldives trip package | 4 Days 3 Nights | The short break, on speedboat-transfer resorts only |
| Maldives all inclusive package | 5 Days 4 Nights | Every meal and soft drink covered, excursions included |
| Maldives water villa package | 4 Days 3 Nights | Overwater villa with private pool and seaplane transfer |
Each of these Maldives holiday packages can be quoted with or without flights, so you can see exactly what the airfare is adding. If none of them fits, tell us what you’re after. Most of our Maldives packages end up as a mix of two of these.
Your villa, all airport and resort transfers, meals as per the resort’s plan, water sports, excursions, visa guidance and a named coordinator. Airfare is the only thing quoted separately.
What’s inside every Maldives package we book:
Maldives holiday packages that look far cheaper than this are almost always room-only, and that’s the single biggest reason two Maldives quotes differ.
A Maldives all inclusive package covers your villa, transfers, every meal, unlimited non-alcoholic drinks, snorkelling equipment, non-motorised water sports and the resort’s own excursions. Diving, spa, alcohol and airfare usually sit outside it.
Check the meal plan before you book, because it isn’t identical across islands. “All inclusive” in the Maldives means four quite different things:
| Meal plan | What you get | What you still pay on the island |
|---|---|---|
| Half board | Breakfast and dinner | Lunch, all drinks |
| Full board | Breakfast, lunch and dinner | All drinks |
| All inclusive | All meals plus selected drinks | Premium drinks, some restaurants |
| Premium all inclusive | All meals across several restaurants, wider drinks list, excursions | Diving, spa, motorised water sports |
Dhigali is premium all inclusive. Breakfast, lunch and dinner across several restaurants, unlimited soft drinks, juices, mocktails, tea and coffee at the bars, restaurants and minibar, snorkelling gear, non-motorised water sports, a glass-bottom-boat trip and a dolphin cruise.
Baros is full board with a premium dining plan. Breakfast, a three-course à la carte dinner, lunch, and unlimited beverages from a selected menu across all outlets.
Never included anywhere: diving, motorised water sports, spa treatments, alcohol at most resorts, and your airfare.
This matters more in the Maldives than anywhere else. Once you’re on a resort island there’s no other restaurant, no shop and no way off, so a room-only rate means paying resort prices for every meal for four days. Our Maldives all inclusive packages put that number on the quote, not on your final bill.
Four nights, split between a beach villa and a water villa, with the honeymoon extras requested from the resort at no cost — from about ₹59,800 per couple per night. Almost every Maldives honeymoon package we book takes this shape.
Maldives packages for couples are our largest single category, and most of them are honeymoons, so the pattern is consistent enough to state plainly:
If your wedding date is fixed, book eight to twelve weeks ahead. The overwater villas sell out well before the flights do. For more honeymoon destinations, see our honeymoon packages.

Yes, and it’s a different resort list from the honeymoon one. A Maldives family package needs three things the honeymoon islands often don’t have: a kids’ club, a shallow house reef, and a two-bedroom or connecting villa.
For a Maldives package for a family of 3 or 4, we also steer towards speedboat-transfer resorts rather than seaplane ones. A seaplane is spectacular, but it’s loud, has no toilet, and adds a wait at the Malé terminal that small children find hard. Kuramathi is our usual first answer for families.
Five to six nights works better than four for families, because the first day is largely travel. Extra-child and extra-adult supplements are charged per person and depend on the villa, so we quote your family’s exact make-up rather than a per-couple rate.

From any city in India. The land package and its price are the same wherever you fly from, and airfare is quoted separately from your city.
The resort, the villa, the transfer and the meal plan don’t change because you’re flying from Delhi rather than Chennai. Only the flight does. So we price your Maldives package once, then add the airfare from your city as a separate line, so you can see both numbers clearly.
| Departure city | Maldives package from your city |
|---|---|
| Hyderabad | Maldives packages from Hyderabad — our home city, with full flight and seaplane timing detail |
| Delhi | Same land package and prices · airfare quoted separately from Delhi |
| Mumbai | Same land package and prices · airfare quoted separately from Mumbai |
| Bengaluru | Same land package and prices · airfare quoted separately from Bengaluru |
| Chennai | Same land package and prices · airfare quoted separately from Chennai |
| Kolkata, Pune, Kochi, Ahmedabad and other cities | Same land package and prices · airfare quoted separately from your city |
One thing the departure city does decide is which islands are practical on arrival day. Seaplanes only fly in daylight, so a flight that lands in Malé late in the afternoon can mean a night near the airport instead of on your island. We check your flight’s arrival time against your island’s transfer before we confirm anything.
5 Days 4 Nights is the sweet spot for a Maldives trip, and 4 Days 3 Nights is the minimum. Six nights or more suits families and anyone planning to dive.
Day one is largely a travel day from most Indian cities, so count your nights on the island, not your days away.
November to April is the best time to visit the Maldives for calm seas, clear water and the best diving. May to October is the best time for value: rain arrives in short bursts and rates ease noticeably.
| Months | Season | What it means for your trip |
|---|---|---|
| November–April | Dry season (northeast monsoon) | Clearest water, best visibility, busiest islands, highest rates |
| Christmas–New Year | Peak within the peak | Most resorts add compulsory gala dinner supplements |
| May–October | Wet season (southwest monsoon) | Short heavy showers then sun, rates ease, the same money buys a better villa |
| June–November | Manta season in Baa Atoll | Best months for Hanifaru Bay, the reason to pick Milaidhoo |
The wet season is badly underrated. It isn’t the all-day grey people imagine. If your dates are flexible at all, travelling between May and October is the single largest lever on your Maldives trip cost, bigger than any other choice you’ll make.
Because rates move through the year, we quote your exact dates instead of publishing seasonal tables here.
No advance visa is needed. Indian passport holders receive a free 30-day visa on arrival in the Maldives, with no application, no fee and no appointment.
You’ll need:
We send every client the IMUGA link with a completed example, and we check yours before you fly.
On passport validity: published guidance, including airlines’ own pages, is inconsistent, and it’s the check-in agent in India who decides whether you board. So we tell every client the same thing: travel on a passport with at least six months left. If yours is closer than that, tell us when you enquire and we’ll confirm with the airline before you book anything.
For destinations that do need a visa, see our visa services.
Every Maldives trip lands at Velana International Airport in Malé. From there you reach your island by speedboat or by seaplane, depending on how far the island is from the airport.
| Speedboat | Seaplane | |
|---|---|---|
| Used for | Islands in the atolls near Malé | Islands in the farther atolls |
| Example | Baros, 25 minutes from the airport | Dhigali, Milaidhoo |
| When it runs | Day and night | Daylight only |
| Good for | Families, short breaks, late-arriving flights | The view: the arrival everyone photographs |
| Watch out for | Choppy water in the wet season | The daylight cut-off, a wait at the seaplane terminal, luggage weight limits |
The transfer is part of the holiday, not an extra. A personal meet-and-greet at the airport, then your boat or seaplane timed to meet your flight, is included in every IMAD Maldives package.
We convert resort rates at 1 USD = ₹97 (2 October 2026), and confirm the exact rupee figure in writing when we quote. Maldives resorts price in US dollars, so the dollar rate, not the Maldivian rufiyaa, is the one that moves your trip cost.
Practically:
Travel May to October, choose a speedboat island over a seaplane one, take four nights instead of five, or split the stay so only the last nights are over the water. Those four levers are real. Cutting the resort isn’t.
IMAD books the Maldives at the deluxe-to-luxury end, and we’re direct about that. We aren’t the cheapest quote you’ll receive, and we don’t try to be. In the Maldives the resort is the whole holiday: once the transfer leaves, there’s nowhere else to go. A saving made on the island is a saving you feel every day of the trip.
Where the number can move honestly:
If your plan is a guesthouse on a local island reached by public ferry, that’s a genuine way to see the Maldives, and we’ll say so honestly. It simply isn’t what we do, and you don’t need an agent to book it.
Because we contract directly with the resorts, quote in rupees per person, and give you one named coordinator from enquiry to check-out.

From ₹29,900 per person per night on a beach villa, ₹37,900 over the water and ₹52,100 for a water villa with its own pool, as a land package on twin sharing. Airfare is quoted separately from your city.
From about ₹59,800 per couple per night on a beach villa and ₹75,800 over the water, for the land package. A typical 5 Days 4 Nights trip is four of those nights plus return airfare for two from your city.
Every package includes the villa, transfers and meals, but the meal plan differs by island. Dhigali is premium all-inclusive; Baros is full board with a premium dining plan. We tell you which plan applies before you book.
We quote the land package and the airfare as two separate lines, because the airfare depends on your city and how early you book. We can book both together, or just the resort if you already have flights.
No. The land package costs the same from every Indian city. Only the airfare changes, and we quote it separately from your city.
For a pool and total privacy, Huvafen Fushi or Milaidhoo. For a speedboat island with a superb reef, Baros. For the best-value overwater night, Kuramathi. Tell us your budget and we’ll match the island to it.
Kuramathi. It has a kids’ club, a walkable island, several pools and a dive school, and we steer families towards speedboat-transfer islands where possible.
Often not. At Kuramathi a water villa is ₹37,900 per person a night, less than a beach villa on some other islands. The step that really costs money is the private pool.
5 Days 4 Nights is ideal. 4 Days 3 Nights works on speedboat islands only. Families and divers do better with six nights or more.
No. Indian passport holders get a free 30-day visa on arrival. You’ll need a valid passport, a return ticket, a confirmed resort booking and the online IMUGA declaration.
November to April for the calmest seas and clearest water. May to October for value, as rates ease and the rain comes in short bursts.
Not from us. We book private-island resorts with proper dining plans and private transfers. The honest ways to bring the cost down are travelling May to October, choosing a speedboat island, staying four nights, or splitting the stay between a beach and a water villa.
A small amount of US dollars for tips, plus an international card. Resorts charge everything to your villa and settle in US dollars at checkout. You’ll rarely need Maldivian rufiyaa.
Tell us three things: your dates, how many of you are travelling, and your departure city. Vipasha will send island options with per-person ₹ prices the same working day.
