One of the best things about living in the UAE is our easy access to tropical destinations on the Indian Ocean — Seychelles, Sri Lanka, Zanzibar<\/a>, Mauritius, and of course, the Maldives.\u00a0 In this island nation, there are numerous resorts and hotels to choose from.\u00a0 While nothing is, let’s say, in the realm of ‘affordable,’ I think dream destinations are always good for bucket lists and what not.\u00a0 So, I’ll assume that the price tag hasn’t scared you off.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, my previous two trips to the Maldives involved overwater villas<\/a>. \u00a0When reviewing our trip to Soneva Fushi<\/a><\/strong>, I was (of course) excited, but also interested \u2014 how would it go?\u00a0 Could I be swayed to villa\u00a0living?<\/span><\/p>\n
