Our last trip to the Maldives (
Filitheyo) was a mix of very good and "could be better" experiences. The holiday in it self was very good, the diving however, could have been better. Some years ago we went to another part of the Maldives, where the diving was also very good:
Vakarufalhi in the
South Ari Atoll. Unfortunately Vakarufalhi had recently been upgraded (so became a lot more expensive) and is only on the market in Italy and Switzerland these days.
As we wanted to go back to the Maldives for our next Diving Holiday we therefore tried to find an alternative Island in the same area. It took us quite some time, but finally we decided for
Vilamendhoo.

This Island used to be known as a "Divers Paradise", but didn't have a realy good reputation when comes to accomodation. Luckily also this Island is currently being upgraded (after an owner change). But different than Vakarufalhi it stays within an acceptable price range. Also the fact that its sister Island,
Meeru, has very good reviews on the web. And knowing that the new acomodation would look a lot like Meeru. Made us decide to spend our next Diving Holiday there.
We'll post the experience on this blog on our return ....... somewhere in 2011. We can't wait to go!
