Best All-Inclusive Resorts
CNN has recently featured Lily Beach Resort & Spa in the 11th position among the ‘Best All-Inclusive’ resorts in the world.

CNN has recently featured Lily Beach Resort & Spa among the ‘Best All-Inclusive’ resorts in the world, which further cements their position as a leader of luxury All-Inclusive resort experience in the Maldives. The list is derived from TripAdvisor’s Top 25 All-Inclusive Resorts in the World 2020, which places the 5-star resort in the 11th position.

In the list, CNN regarded Lily Beach Resort & Spa as the perfect option for a ‘quintessential Maldives experience’. Likewise, the list highlighted that the luxury all-inclusive resort provides access to more than 50 diving sites as its located in a prime location in South Ari Atoll in the Maldives.

Lily Beach Resort & Spa has always had a good reputation when it came to providing a great all-inclusive experience based on the all-inclusive meal plan that was made popular in the world by Club Med. It consists of all meals being accounted for, great lodging, no surprise overcharged invoice at the end of the stay, some activities and excursions included in the plan, and most importantly having great tasting food and drinks. It’s not rocket science but Lily Beach has got their all-inclusive offering and experience down to a T- all the positive reviews on TripAdvisor stand as a testament to this.

Lily Beach secured 1st place in TripAdvisor’s Best All-Inclusive Resorts in Asia for 3 constructive years. The Traveler’s Choice Awards are based on the millions of reviews and opinions collected from TripAdvisor travellers worldwide.

The island retreat pioneered Maldives’ all-inclusive concept in 1994. Afterwards, the resort underwent an extensive renovation and reopened in 2009 as a luxury resort. Hence, the unique, pioneering concept of “Affordable Luxury”, the first 5-star All-Inclusive Platinum Plan Resort in the Maldives was born.

With the overall concept of ‘Affordable Luxury’ in mind, Lily Beach’s ‘Platinum Plan’ is a Premium All-Inclusive Plan, offering tourists an absolute value-for-money and a hassle-free vacation. In addition to that, the platinum plan offers a fantastic array of exclusive experiences from fine dining, dreamy excursions, and sports activities, to high-quality products like premium wines and spirits- this puts their plan apart from other contenders. Moreover, the only meal plan available at the resort is the Platinum plan, which shows that the resort management is all-in with the all-inclusive concept.

This has allowed Lily Beach Resort & Spa to succeed the likes of international brands (such as Club Med in the Maldives) and other local brands in the Maldives offering similar all-inclusive plans.

Consistently reinventing itself and pushing ahead further than the competition gained the local owner-operator, Lily Hotels an upper hand. Moreover, as a winner of multiple awards and recognitions throughout the years, Lily Beach Resort & Spa continuously proved itself as the best all-inclusive resort in the region and among the best in the world.

CROSSROADS Maldives Invites Families to Celebrate Summer Through Play and Learning

Crossroads Maldives summer

In the Maldives, summer isn’t just about white sands and turquoise waters. It’s about creating moments that stay with you long after the sun sets. This year, CROSSROADS Maldives makes sure those moments belong just as much to the kids as to the adults.

At Hard Rock Hotel Maldives and SAii Lagoon Maldives, part of the country’s first multi-island lifestyle destination, children don’t just tag along for the ride. Instead, they take center stage. With two vibrant seasonal programs in full swing, these resorts promise a summer packed with play, discovery, and creativity.

Kids Rock and Roll at Hard Rock Hotel Maldives

Starting 1st June 2025, Hard Rock Hotel Maldives brings back its exciting Camp-Cation for a fifth season. This immersive program welcomes kids and teens aged 4 to 17 to dive into a high-energy mix of activities where they can express themselves, try new things, and have loads of fun.

For example, participants paint, bake cookies, and take on aerial arts and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. They also garden, play music, and learn guitar. In addition, talent shows and dance parties invite them to perform and cheer each other on. Every session lets them shine in their own way.

By combining creativity with movement and music, Camp-Cation helps kids find their rhythm and build confidence. As a result, they walk away with new friendships and unforgettable memories in a stunning tropical setting.

SAii Lagoon Maldives Sparks Creativity and Adventure

Just across the lagoon, SAii Lagoon Maldives, Curio Collection by Hilton launches its seasonal kids’ program from 15th July to 15th September 2025. Like its sister property, this vibrant experience invites young guests to explore, play, and connect with the world around them through hands-on learning and exciting challenges.

Each day offers a new adventure. Kids compete in Amazing Race-style games, experiment with mocktail mixology, and dive into arts and crafts. Meanwhile, they move, create, and laugh their way through the summer.

Moreover, the resort recently added a Padel Tennis court, opened in March 2025, which gives children the chance to try a fun, fast-paced sport that’s gaining popularity across the globe.

For those drawn to the sea, young marine explorers can join snorkeling sessions and interactive ocean discovery classes, where trained instructors guide them through the magical underwater world of the Maldives. These hands-on activities not only entertain but also help kids develop a deep appreciation for marine life.

A Summer to Remember for the Whole Family

What sets these programs apart isn’t just their creativity. Rather, it’s their purpose. The resorts encourage kids to explore new interests, learn through play, and celebrate their talents. In turn, every moment supports their growth and helps them build joyful memories. At the same time, while the kids stay busy discovering, parents get to unwind, knowing their children are enjoying enriching, age-appropriate adventures in a safe and supportive environment.

In the end, CROSSROADS Maldives offers more than a beautiful holiday. It creates a place where families connect, where kids thrive, and where every summer moment tells a story worth remembering.
