One of the first countries to reopen its borders after the COVID-19 pandemic struck, the Maldives continues to be a popular choice amongst tourists worldwide. This Indian Ocean nation provides easy entry for all travellers regardless of their COVID-19 vaccination status; since March this year, visitors no longer must show their vaccination certificates while pre-arrival PCR testing is not required either. While travel restrictions have been removed, the country still adheres to stringent health protocols ensuring the safety of travellers too especially when staying at a private island resort; Maldives holidays full of fun in the sun, sand and surf can be enjoyed once more providing a welcome break.
It’s little surprise then, that this destination has been experiencing increasing arrivals and in July this year, it recorded more than 900,000 tourists so far in 2022. This bodes well with the winter holiday season coming up as the country looks to reach and even exceed its projected goal of welcoming 1.6 million international visitors this year. For such travellers, private island resorts like Kuramathi Maldives make an ideal choice for getaways be it for families or couples as the nation continues its remarkable tourism recovery.
