Hi Christine,

Which kinds of accommodation are available in the Maldives?

Accommodation varies depending on your occupation/post and your work site.

if you are working in the hospitality industry, your most likely be working on a island, accomodation in these cases are arranged by the employer, again if you are coming for a low class job ie as a cleaner or helper, you will get a sharing room in some cases you might have to share with 5. if you are coming to work as a receptionist and above you will be give a 2-4 sharing room, and if your coming for a supervisory job then you will get a twin sharing room, and from manager to up you will get a fully furnished singled accomodation. and for executives you will have a bigger apartment.

if your coming to work in the capital city, in most cases the employer will give you accommodation.

in capital city, accommodation for everyone is on small apartments.
