3 nights too short. Should be 4 nights to make it worth the hassle
Agree that 3 nights is too short unless you are coming from Dubai or another country similarly close to the island. I would recommend at least 5 nights if coming from a Western country. In terms of Marriotts, Le Meridian use to have the best value if you were using points to stay but I think they increased the redemption rates last March. If money is not a consideration, the St Regis hotel is considered one of the best resorts in the Maldives. Cost, everything is expensive. All meals/activities have a mandatory service fee plus tax. I would say dinner for 2 each night could easily be $100-200. Lunch $50-100. Most resorts have free breakfast included.
