Dreaming of an overwater villa? Here is what a Maldives honeymoon really costs from India in 2026 — flights, resort, transfers, meal plans and extras — with tips to get that bucket-list trip without overspending.
Quick answer
A 4–5 night Maldives honeymoon from India typically costs ₹1,10,000–₹2,50,000 per couple depending on the resort, villa type (beach vs overwater) and meal plan. All-inclusive overwater stays cost more; beach-villa resorts near Malé are the best value.
Flights
Return economy flights from India to Malé usually cost ₹35,000–₹60,000 per couple. Indians get a free 30-day visa-on-arrival, so there is no visa cost.
Resort & villa
| Villa type | Per night (couple) |
|---|---|
| Beach villa (value resort) | ₹18,000–₹30,000 |
| Beach villa (premium) | ₹30,000–₹50,000 |
| Overwater villa | ₹45,000–₹90,000+ |
Transfers (speedboat vs seaplane)
Speedboat transfers (near Malé) cost less and run anytime; seaplane transfers (farther islands) are scenic but pricier and daylight-only. Budget ₹15,000–₹40,000 per couple for return transfers depending on the resort.
Meal plans
Resort food is expensive, so an All-Inclusive or at least Half-Board plan usually saves money overall. Factor meal plans into the comparison rather than just the room rate.
Money-saving tips
Travel in the green season (May–October), pick a speedboat resort, choose all-inclusive, and book a bundled Maldives package from Kolkata that combines flights, resort and transfers for the best price. Also see our honeymoon packages from Kolkata.
