InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort Master Thread
I have a couple of questions to the great and the good of the FT community:
- How much are the transfers to the property from Male airport. I have tried to find this information, but not had any luck
- Has anyone had any luck making a redemption booking at the property? I cannot see availability on any date

It isn't ever going to be a free stay in fact several of my most expensive "free stays" ever took place at properties in the Maldives beginning with a hotel redemption booking.
I personally think the value is good in the Maldives when everything is considered but if price is your main focus it isn't the place for you.

Not sure why they write it like that, but I can guarantee you anyone above 2 is going to be $290++ -- rates aren't set by the hotel, but by the airline

Anyone ever tried getting their own transportation to the resort?
I have heard of people only paying half for transportation when only using one way (and staying at a different resort after).

If the seaplane round trip of US$580++ seems crazy, then go over the the Waldorf Astoria Maldives threads where it is US$740++ round trip for boat transfer, that is 30 minutes each way. Some were lucky enough (myself included) where the hotel agreed to allow US$370++ return due to a pricing error from their end.

Pick resorts close to each other and the hotels can surely coordinate and arrange with one of their speedboats at whatever rate the hotel usually charges for it... If you're transferring to a hotel further away, the only option to not go through Male would probably be to private charter a seaplane... a costly choice for sure!
