The luxurious diving paradise in the Indian Ocean
The Maldives are no ordinary destination – they are a promise. A promise of endless turquoise, of white sand beneath your feet and of a silence you only hear when the sea is your sole neighbour. Spread across 26 atolls and more than 1,200 coral islands in the Indian Ocean, the Maldives offer a concentration of luxury, privacy and natural beauty that is unrivalled anywhere in the world. For discerning travellers from Switzerland, the Maldives are the first address for exclusive island paradises. A Maldives luxury holiday is perfect as a romantic honeymoon for two, as a family holiday in a resort with your own pool, or as a retreat for business-class travellers seeking absolute exclusivity.
As your personal Maldives travel consultant in Basel, we put together your Maldives holiday individually: no package deals, no mass processing. We know the differences between the atolls, which islands have the best house reefs and which resort is perfectly suited to your wishes. From choosing your overwater villa and arranging your speedboat or seaplane transfer to private diving experiences and spa rituals by the sea, every detail is tailored personally to you. Rely on more than 30 years of experience, IATA-certified flight bookings and the security of the Swiss Travel Industry Guarantee Fund.
Unforgettable experiences between sky and sea
Secure your Maldives luxury holiday from Switzerland comfortably from home. As your luxury travel specialist in Switzerland, we make planning effortless.
Discover pristine coral reefs right in front of your Maldives overwater villa with pool.
Explore the local islands along sandy paths and discover their authentic culture.
Enjoy breathtaking views of the atolls during a seaplane transfer.
Experience dolphin watching at sunset or private island hopping.
Visit Addu Atoll or the island of Villingili to enjoy local hospitality over a fresh coconut. With Pink Travel, your individually planned Maldives luxury holiday becomes a carefree experience. Malé International Airport (MLE) on the island of Hulhulé is your gateway to this island kingdom, from where you are taken comfortably to your resort by speedboat or seaplane.
Wake up above the ocean in your private overwater villa, with direct access to the lagoon, a glass floor panel looking down onto the underwater world and your own infinity pool that merges seamlessly with the turquoise. The overwater villas of the Maldives redefine luxury: butler service, Nespresso machine, open-air rain shower and a sun deck that belongs to you alone.
The Maldives rank among the best diving destinations in the world. Encounter manta rays, whale sharks, turtles and colourful coral reefs on guided dives or right on your resort's house reef. Many of our partner resorts have a PADI-certified dive centre and organise exclusive night dives and snorkelling safaris to remote reefs.
Imagine an empty sandbank in the middle of the ocean, a table laid in white, your private chef and a sunset that bathes the sky in gold and pink. Our Maldives resorts arrange this experience exclusively for you, including champagne, a seafood menu and torchlight beneath the stars.
Unwind in the award-winning overwater spas of the Maldives. From Ayurvedic treatments and thalasso therapies to sunrise yoga on the jetty, wellness in the Maldives becomes a spiritual experience. Many spas have glass-floored treatment rooms where you can watch tropical fish beneath you during your massage.
Watch hundreds of spinner dolphins leaping through the waves in the evening sun alongside your dhoni (a traditional Maldivian sailing boat). We organise private sunset cruises including drinks and canapés: a magical moment that no Maldives luxury holiday should be without.
Direct flights with Edelweiss from Zurich (seasonal, approx. 10 hours) or connecting flights via Dubai (Emirates), Doha (Qatar Airways) or Istanbul (Turkish Airlines). As an IATA agency, we book your business or first class flights directly, including lounge access and priority check-in. As a Maldives travel agency in Basel, we take care of all your flight planning as part of our luxury holidays from Switzerland.
Depending on the resort's location, the transfer is by speedboat (20–90 min), seaplane (30–60 min) or domestic flight plus speedboat. We advise you on which type of transfer best suits your trip and, if desired, arrange a VIP welcome at Velana Airport with a private lounge.
Swiss citizens receive a free 30-day visa on arrival. You will need a passport that is valid for at least 6 months beyond your return date. Alcohol may not be brought into the country; every resort has its own licence and a fully stocked bar.
No special vaccinations are required. Medical care in the luxury resorts is good, and many have their own doctor on the island. We recommend travel insurance with repatriation cover, which we will gladly arrange for you.
