Planning honeymoon. Trying to decide between Maldives or French Polynesia. FP is easier to get to from the U.S. but Maldives seems to have more options. Anyone been to either? Recommendations? Thanks!

Those are such basic choices OP. If you're so set on the Indian Ocean, take a look at North Sentinel island. Beaches completely unspoiled by man, and the staff will give you a welcome like no where else.

Lux South Ari Atoll Maldives. Was there for our honeymoon. Just do it.
Also, we stopped over in Dubai for a few days to break up the flights a tad.

Lux booked our entire package for us, including airfare on Emirates and seaplane transfers in the Maldives. Chi City > Dubai > Male, and I think we were around $1500/each for airfare, which included the seaplane transfer from Male to the resort.

Debated between Maldives and Fiji (coming from east coast) went with Fiji and had zero regrets. Plus Fiji at the moment is less touristy so definitely get more bang for your buck

Hmm @D1 do you? Lol

Also many of the resorts mention mandatory speedboat transfers that can be hundreds per person. Are there any cheaper options? Perhaps, booking directly with locals who have boats vs thru the hotels?

Any tips would be greatly appreciated!!

Hello People,
Looking for advice based on experience. Currently living with in-laws that have come to support us with our first baby. My in-laws and I have had a rocky start to our relationship due to ours being an inter-religion marriage. Many things have been said that I’m neither able to forgive nor forget. I have a very kind husband who understands my sentiments but wants to try to have a cordial relationship with them now for the sake of our baby (and baby’s relationship with grandparents)
