All Inclusive Holidays to Maldives in September

Our all inclusive resort picks for September focus on properties that handle the southwest monsoon well and keep the board basis clear.

• Ari Atoll Resorts: All Inclusive Resorts in September near Gouvia, on Corfu's north-east coast, are a sensible choice for families and couples alike. September brings warm sea temperatures, quieter beaches and softer afternoon heat than the height of summer, with resorts offering all-inclusive dining, bars and daytime activities across the marina-side and bay-front areas. It is exactly the brief our Maldives All Inclusive Holidays deals are built around.
• Kaafu Atoll Resort Islands: Kaafu Atoll contains the islands closest to the capital, so its resorts can usually be reached in the shortest time from the airport. Many properties here are built on private islands with overwater villas and direct lagoon access, which suits travellers who want a complete resort day without leaving the island. The trade-off is that the nearest reefs are often busier with visiting boats in peak periods. We recommend choosing a resort with a well-kept house reef to get the most from the board.
• Baa Atoll Resorts: Baa Atoll is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and a strong choice for guests who want reef diving and manta encounters as part of their all inclusive stay. Resort transfers take a little longer than to the nearest atolls, so you should allow for that when planning arrival times. The reefs here are excellent, and several resorts include guided snorkelling trips in the package. We think Baa suits divers and marine-life enthusiasts who are happy to trade a slightly longer transfer for a richer underwater experience.
• Huvadhoo Atoll Resorts: Huvadhoo is among the largest atolls in the Maldives and offers quieter resorts with fewer visitors than the central atolls. Access is generally by domestic flight and boat, so the journey is longer and the transfer costs are higher than for resorts near the capital. In return you get a more secluded setting and the feeling of having a lagoon largely to yourself. We suggest this option for travellers who value privacy above a short transfer. It is exactly the brief our Maldives Adults Only Holidays deals are built around.
• Addu Atoll Resorts: Addu Atoll is the southernmost atoll and differs from the others, with causeway-linked islands, WWII heritage and a larger local population. Resorts here are fewer in number and the journey from the capital involves a domestic flight, which lengthens the transfer. The setting gives a more local feel alongside the lagoon, which some guests prefer to a purely resort-based stay. Our recommendation is Addu for those seeking history and a different perspective on the Maldives in September.
