How long is ideal to stay in Maldives?

Because getting to/from the Maldives can be long and exhausting, I suggest staying at least seven nights. Otherwise, once you get acclimated to the time change and relax, it is time to start the tedious journey home. We stayed in the Maldives for eight nights and nine days, which was perfect.

The Maldives works well for a week-long holiday although 10 days to 2 weeks is ideal. It also works brilliantly as a 3–5-day bolt-on to a longer holiday in Sri Lanka which is only 1 hour away by plane. If you're visiting after Sri Lanka or staying for a week, we would recommend sticking to one resort.

A longer stay smoothens the costs of flights and transfers and every day in paradise adds up to relaxation and recharging your batteries.

How much do you tip a Maldivian butler? The butler or concierge will be the member of the staff you interact the most with, so they should get the biggest tip if you have been happy with their service. About 3-5% of the nightly room rate is a good rule of thumb in this case.
