HI Elaine,
Unfortunately, no official news yet. Stay tuned, I will release any solid update that becomes available.
hi there, any idea about opening of Diamond Athuruga / Thudufushi properties
Hi Dealon, apparently from 1st November 2020, but I found nothing in their official releases.
hey there , any news about Milaidhoo island opening ?
Hi Pierre !
Yes, it announced and updated, Milaidhoo will reopen on Sep, 01st !
If we are booked to go to the Maldives at the end of September , but at the moment the foreign office says it’s not essential. What can we do .
We are due to pay our balance tomorrow .
From England to dubi to transfer to Maldives on the 28th September .
Do you think this will be allowed from the UK by then
Thanks x
Hi Scarlett,
I wish I could answer your question but I cannot tell you the situation in september…unfortunately.
I would like to know when people in local islands will be able to travel to Male without staying in quarantine ?
Dear Shama,
I cannot tell you. It all depends on the situation in Male. People need to stay safe and avoid to bring this infamous virus into your precious islands. Keep on. Let’s be all patient and optimistic until life becomes “normal” again. Stay safe and well dear Shama.
Hello there , would like to know any updates on opening of RIU maldives hotels

Dear Kinan,
RIU confirmed me that RIU Palace will open on AUGUST 17. The list is updated.
RIU Atoll will come soon. Thank you for your patience.
Niyama Private Villas not in any lists ? any idea of opening date ?
Hello John, unfortunately no, no official date yet. The resort announced last month that it will be closed until 30 June. Since then no update. I am working on it and will update the list accordingly and immediately. Stay tuned. Stay safe and Have a great day !
