Thousands of Britons jet off each year and head to the Maldives. With white sands, tropical weather and overwater villas, it is the ultimate luxury holiday destination.
However, flying across the Indian Ocean can cost a fortune. That’s before even considering the price of a bungalow on the ocean and the sea planes or boats you would need to catch from Mali Airport to your resort.
In all, Maldives hotels can cost thousands of pounds each night putting it out of reach for most UK tourists. Luckily, overwater bungalows are becoming more popular around the world, reports the Daily Star.
