Want to go to Maldives for my 40th in Nov .... end of the month (roughly 16th - 29th ish)

Flexible with work and dates so do I book now or sort it last min for a deal?

And is late Nov a good time? And anywhere to avoid - or are all the islands pretty much spot on?

That's the start of the dry season. Will be very difficult to get a deal. Especially on flights

If you are looking for a standard hut type room then last minute is ok but if your looking for something special ,on the water jacuzzi type accom then book early

I have been to Bandos which was good and also Vilamendhoo which was excellent

Have fun

I went to Constance Halaveli for 7 nights the first week in December last year, booked around late October, and it was stunning. I think they had a prolonged rain season last year but it only rained during the night and was clear by day. We went for a water villa, which was massive (compared to others I have seen with outside decking and plunge pool and steps straight into the lagoon. I can highly recommend www.maldivesdirect.co.uk who can give you a number of options depending on your budget.
