And why not with children? right now, what to wait until the child grows up and not go anywhere???? I want exotic, I think the Maldives will do. In the end it's all the same reb. in the majority he will eat the food that we will take him with us.

listen, dear experts...)))
Firstly, they fly with children to Cuba, the Dominican Republic (a 12-hour flight), to Thailand (a very popular place for children of all ages) and flying there is also not enough, and nothing is in order. What is better for a child to sit in a stuffy, dirty, dusty city or splash around in a hackneyed and also not very clean Turkey .....??? I already looked at flying to the Maldives - 8.5 hours (direct) It's not that long.
Secondly - how do they argue here that with children this is not a vacation, and in your hometown you can’t rest from children, but at least you went on vacation, changed your place of deployment, received a charge of positive emotions - all forward! So that's it, for me personally, the child is not a hindrance!
And thirdly, the question was something else, can someone advise the hotel or not ??? ))))))) And in general, give arguments why the Maldives is not suitable for families with children, please!
I would be grateful to everyone, maybe there is some kind of danger for children or what ???

NB:
For obvious safety reasons, the majority, if not all resorts, insist on parents signing a disclaimer if they wish to stay in Over Water Villas with young children, Centara Grand being the only exception to this rule. For those same reasons, most parents, will tend to seek out beach accommodation so that they can sit on the veranda whilst the children play safely on the beach in front of the villa. Therefore any resort which has entirely OWV’s is likely to have fewer children in residence, such as Cocoa Island for example.
Likewise, swimming pools are another family magnet . Avoiding islands with a pool is one way of reducing the likelihood of encountering children whilst in the Maldives.
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------
* £ - up to £700, ££ - up to £1200, £££ - £1200+ (Price guides are per person, per week and inc. transfers)
Information correct as of : JUNE 2010
