Drop everything because one of our favorite deals in the Maldives is back! Have you wanted to visit but don’t have enough points? Are you worried that the cost of food and drinks will wring you dry?

Travelzoo has you covered here with an all-inclusive stay for 2 people in a beach villa at the 5-star Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa.

Book Your Dream Trip to the Maldives From $2,499

We get that nobody wants to pay cash for a vacation, especially when you can use points and miles for your stay. But the Maldives is one of those special destinations that warrants forking over some cash, especially when spending so little for a week at a 5-star, all-inclusive resort!

In this example, you’d spend 5 nights at Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa in a Sunset Beach Villa with meals and drinks included. To top it off, massages, paddle boards, snorkeling equipment, and butler service are included!

You can also extend your stay, add 2 more guests, or upgrade your villa for discounted rates.

Unfortunately, transfer flights are not included with this deal; an additional $440 per person (infants under the age of 2 are complimentary).

To book, you’ll want to head to the deal’s promotion page.

Why Is This Such a Big Deal?

We’ve been posting about the Maldives for a while now, especially since it tops many travelers’ bucket lists. However, even when redeeming your points for a trip to the Maldives, you spend quite a bit of cash during your stay. This is because you typically need to account for the exorbitant cost of food and drinks.

As an example, it’ll cost you 480,000 Hilton points for a 5-night stay at the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island (with the fifth night free for elite members). This can score you either a beach villa or an overwater villa.

We value Hilton points at 0.5 cents each, which means you’ll be redeeming $2,400 worth of points for your stay. However, that just gets you the room — and nothing else.

Instead, you can choose to pay $2,499 upfront with this deal. You’ll be able to save your Hilton points for a better redemption, plus your drinks and meals will be included. You’ll also be able to earn rewards with a travel credit card you use to purchase the voucher.

Of course, you’ll also need to travel to the Maldives from the U.S., the cost of which you can hopefully offset with your points and miles.

Hot Tip:

When paying cash for travel rather than using points, we recommend using a travel rewards credit card for these purchases. For example, using the Chase Sapphire Reserve® to book your travel package would earn 3x points per $1 spent.

Final Thoughts

The Maldives is an amazing destination, which is why it’s highly sought after by points and miles travelers.

However, there is a time and a place to use those miles — and this isn’t one of them. Instead, take advantage of this pricing to score 5 nights in a villa in the Maldives at an all-inclusive resort for just $2,499. It doesn’t get much better than that!
