Our rooms were right by the main pool and restaurant, the perfect location for entertaining the kids.<\/p>\n<p>However, while our positioning was perfect, if your villa is further away from the main area there are buggies driving around every 10-15 minutes. So you can easily hitch a lift.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also worth mentioning that we upgraded to Premium All-Inlcusive.&nbsp; I&#8217;d recommend anyone to do this as it gave us access to upgraded food and drinks menu, as well as some additional benefits.

mainly spent barefoot or in flip-flops.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Each morning would wake up and take a stroll to Jaafaiy, the buffet restaurant by the main pool for breakfast before spending the rest of the morning relaxing around the pool. Lunch generally saw us <strong>grabbing a snack from the Udhares Bar<\/strong>. These snacks are chargeable but more convenient for kids as they offer classics like pizza, chips, and burgers.<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, we would usually move to the beach where we snorkelled out to the house reef. We also took the chance to try some new experiences like kayaking or playing beach volleyball.<\/p>\n<p>Having <strong>this laid-back daily structure ensured the kids never got bored<\/strong> or restless as there was always a new experience around the corner. Anyone who has ever been snorkelling will tell you that no two days in the water are ever the same &#8211; especially in the bustling lagoon waters at Furaveri.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div

But there are some amazing activities available to help protect against hearing that infuriating warble &#8220;muuuuuumm&#8230; we&#8217;re bored&#8221;.

We stayed in a beach villa but the lagoon water is warm, shallow and clear, so you can just wander out and see the fish living their normal lives. So much better than an aquarium in the UK.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bluebaytravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/snorkel-maldives.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/bluebaytravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/snorkel-maldives.jpg\" alt=\"fish swimming around a reef in the Maldives\" class=\"wp-image-29595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluebaytravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/snorkel-maldives.jpg 800w, https:\/\/bluebaytravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/snorkel-maldives-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bluebaytravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/snorkel-maldives-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Snorkelling in the Maldives is one of the best things you can do on the islands.
