Whether you're in the stages of puppy love or you've been together for decades, on every partnership's bucket list there lies a space designated for a romantic beach holiday together. It can't be like any other of your sea-adjacent sojourns as the pre-requisites call for a delightful holiday which ignites the passion and vibrance between you two. From the Bahamas to Mauritius, the planet offers plenty of romantic holiday destinations for couples. However, the Maldives has shot to popularity in recent years for good reason. Bollywood couples from Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor to Kiara Advani and Siddharth Malhotra have all holidayed on the Maldivian archipelago.
If they've inspired you to jet off to the tropical paradise with your significant other, Kandima Maldives is where you need to be. The resort, which stretches across a 3-kilometre-long island, has a world of water sports, luxurious accommodations and relaxing amenities to offer. Amongst them all, I believe that couples of every age can truly experience an enjoyably refreshing vacation in Maldives when they spend it here. On this edition of #SheSays, here's why I think you should travel to Kandima Maldives for a romantic couple's holiday.

Tick Off A Water Villa From Your Bucket List
Chances are, you're aware of the extremely popular water villas, which the Maldives has come to be known for. Available at Kandima are a host of accommodation types like apartments and suites but the water villas are their specialty. Extending into the crystal clear blue water just off the shore, their water villas are spacious, peaceful and private. One can opt for their own personal plunge pool or jacuzzi that sits on the patio of the villa with direct private access to the sea. Even the bathrooms are a work of art with bathtubs and rain showers that overlook the water with shades when necessary for added privacy. With partitions between individual villas, privately lounge on the deck to watch the sun dip into the horizon or take an early morning dip in the sea surrounded by nothing but aquatic life.
Dine Privately On The Beach
While Kandima has numerous restaurants, cafes and night clubs, nothing can compare to a romantic dinner only for two surrounded by the sea shore and beach breeze. If you're celebrating a special occasion or just want to make the night a memorable one, this is just what you need. The resort can organize a private meal on the sea shore that is decorated with hearts and candles with the ambient noise of the waves hitting the sand bank while you dive into the day's fresh catch.
Head To An Art Class For Two
If your better half doesn't enjoy stereotypical romantic gestures, Kandima's private art class for two is bound to inculcate joy. Their delightful art studio celebrates Maldivian artists with their work displayed on the walls while being situated along the banks of a cove. Under the guidance of an art instructor, put paint brush to canvas to colour up a storm that's inspired by a new technique or just the natural beauty of the location.
Indulge In An Intimate Couple Spa
When you're going all the way across the world for a romantic getaway, it wouldn't be fair to miss a therapeutic massage with your partner. At the Eskape Spa, treatment rooms are like nowhere else in the world as they open up to the sea being your view while being massaged. It also includes a steam room, plunge pool and salon services if you'd like to spend the whole day here. The intimate experience with your significant other is blissfully relaxing in the stunning foliage-laden setting with the sounds of the sea harmoniously in the background.
Go Down On One Knee In Style
If you're flying to Maldives to make your partner your one-and-only for life, Kandima has plenty of options to do it in style. You can ask them to marry you with a sign spelled out with coconuts on the seashore, a banner with the question that whizzes by on a boat or most adventurously, on underwater signage when you two head for a scuba diving session together. It'll be a proposal straight out of a movie that will give you memories for a lifetime and you'll be the talk of the town when you share your photos on social media.
