Resort Review: Adaaran Select Meedhupparu (Raa Atoll, Maldives)

After the destination for our short winter escape was set, I searched for the options which could offer us the best combination of stunning beaches, all-inclusive options and hydroplane transport to the island. For a reasonable price, if that word is even allowed when travelling to Maldives. I hesitated between the Sun Island, Barefoot Eco Hotel and Adaaran Select Meedhupparu. With no doubt in my mind I can say that I made the best possible choice.

Sri Lanka road trip: 10 days by Tuk-Tuk

Strange as it may seem, Sri Lanka has never been on my bucket list. Mostly because it doesn’t have white sandy beaches, like the neighboring Maldives or some other Asian countries. However, Sri Lanka is only a 2-hour flight from Mumbai and since I was in India on business, I figured it was time to add a new country to my list. I just didn’t want to do it the classical way, so we decided to go for the adventurous Sri Lanka road trip option. In this post, you’ll find everything you need to know about Sri Lanka, especially if you plan to self-drive in this hectic, yet beautiful country.

Hotel review: The Oberoi Beach Resort, Lombok

Ah, dear Oberoi Lombok, where shall I start? Perhaps with the scent of plumerias in your lush green gardens, which will stay in my memory forever? With the massage, that almost made me fall asleep 3 times in one session? Or with the picture-perfect breakfast setting?

»Katero destinacijo bi priporočala, če bi morala izbrati samo eno? Komu bi svetovala Maldive in komu Sejšele? Kje so lepše plaže? So za pare bolj primerni Maldivi ali Sejšeli? Kaj pa za družine?« Že med samim dopustom, še posebej pa po objavi članka Počitnice na Sejšelih, sem prejela precej tovrstnih vprašanj.

Potovanje v času epidemije: Počitnice na Maldivih

Po tem, ko sem zbrala pogum in objavila prvo fotografijo z Maldivov na svojem Instagram profilu, so me prijatelji in sledilci zasuli z zasebnimi sporočili. »A si res tam? Kako si letela? Se sploh da potovati? Si imela kaj težav na poti? Kako je s testi?« In pa seveda klasična vprašanja o Maldivih: »Na katerem otoku si? Koliko si plačala? Ali so hoteli polni?«, na katera sem obširno odgovorila že v tem članku.
