However, Maldives has, since forever, been marketed as the luxury destination which can be afforded only by a few people. Travel content creator Rebecca Vincent shared an insightful reel on her Instagram profile spilling the beans about Maldives travel that no one knows about.

“Maldives resorts are the biggest scams,” said the Instagram influencer as she shared three travel tips that we should when the next time we plan a trip to Maldives.

Maldives consists of more than 1000 islands!

Instead of what is marketed by the resorts, Maldives is home to more than thousand islands, and most of them consists of local guest houses, which are affordable and offer a more local experience. “Local islands are obviously filled with local Maldivian people just living their lives. But on the resort islands, there are no locals actually living there. This is because the entire island is just the resort,” wrote Rebecca in her post.

Water activities cost

Water activities such as scuba diving, private sandbank, dolphin cruise and snorkeling cost a lot less in the local islands. “So, if you want a tropical getaway but don’t want to go broke, all you got to do is stay in one of these local guest houses,” said Rebecca in the video.
