Despite the Maldives having problematic laws regarding LGBTQ+ rights, it remains one of Out Of Office’s most popular destinations. The Maldives is made up of a collection of private islands, each essentially run by the resort that occupies it. This unique geography allows for a more private and controlled environment, where resorts can create welcoming and inclusive spaces for LGBTQ+ travelers.
Out Of Office works with a carefully selected range of resorts in the Maldives, many of which have LGBTQ+ management and a strong commitment to providing a safe, respectful, and luxurious experience for all guests.
These resorts go above and beyond to ensure that the LGBTQ+ community feels welcomed and valued, offering exclusive amenities, private villas, and personalized services in stunning locations. While it’s important to remain discreet when traveling in the Maldives due to national laws, guests can enjoy a high level of comfort and privacy within these resort environments, making the Maldives an unforgettable and increasingly popular destination for LGBTQ+ travelers.
Accommodation
Ocean House with Private Pool
With the ability to step out from your house straight into your own private pool as well as the ocean, these rooms are perhaps one of the best in the Maldives.
An abundance of space includes your own private lounge and sundeck. The perfect place to unwind and at night sit on your deck under the stars as the ocean waves lap below.
Beach House with Private Pool
The Beach Houses mirror the layout of the Ocean Houses but offer direct access to the soft, powdery sands of the beach rather than the sea. With the secluded charm of the island, staying here often feels like having your very own private paradise to explore.
