Weather in the Maldives
With temperatures in Dubai slowly rising and flights gradually returning to normal, it is the ideal time to travel to a tropical destination with a soft coastal breeze with a scattering of rain throughout the season. In the Maldives, the southwest monsoon brings more frequent rainfall, higher humidity, and occasional windy conditions. However, temperatures remain warm, and rain usually falls in short, intense bursts.
Where to stay
Beautifully situated in the South Malé Atoll and just a short speedboat ride from Velana International Airport, SIX & SIX PRIVATE ISLANDS’ RAH GILI MALDIVES invites guests to shape their own journey, guided by nature, design, and immersive cultural encounters tailored to how they wish to feel, not just what they wish to do. With just 74 villas thoughtfully spaced along the shore and located beside a protected dolphin sanctuary, each spacious and refined interior opens seamlessly into the natural landscape.
For families, dedicated two-bedroom villas including Family Beach Pool and Sunset Water Pool Villas offer a serene haven to unwind and share moments that become lasting memories long after the island recedes from view. To elevate their stay, guests are looked after by ‘Edhurun’, a dedicated butler who ensures every moment flows seamlessly from arrival to farewell, allowing guests to fully immerse themselves on the island.
Where to dine
Culinary experiences at RAH GILI are as dynamic and diverse as the destination itself. Guests can embark on a global gastronomic journey across a collection of vibrant venues, from the international flair of Juliette’s to the bold Asian flavours of Spicy Ginger, refined Japanese dining at Teppan, and the comforting charm of La Tavola’s Italian cuisine. Maakeyolhu celebrates Maldivian seafood traditions, while Tiffin offers a rich Indian menu. At the heart of the island’s social scene, Amrit Beach Club pairs casual dining with a lively atmosphere, centred around a stunning 210 sqm pool lined with sun loungers and private cabanas, perfect for long, sun-soaked days that blend seamlessly into vibrant evenings.
What to do
