Maldives-heaven on earth!

On the face of it, the small archipelago in the Indian ocean is heaven on Earth. Beautiful islands with pearl white sandy beaches, coral and marine life abound, the Maldives is where one dreams of living and retiring once they've made it.

The Maldives can be quite a difficult destination to figure out in terms of accommodations with a multitude of resorts all of which seem to look the same but with some huge price differences.
