An In-Depth Guide to Seeing the Maldives on a Budget in 2025

"After escaping Maafushi, I liked Mahibadhoo much more: it was clean (local women volunteer to clean the island weekly), featured colorful pastel buildings, had more life and nightly local soccer games, and felt like a nicer, less-developed island. Though it doesn’t have a bikini beach, there is good snorkeling right offshore, and Mahibadhoo serves as a solid base for day trips to deserted atolls and quieter islands." - Matthew Kepnes
