Resort Packing Adjuster
A focused list, not a 200-item checklist. Adjusted for your trip shape.
Unique: adds local-island day-trip and dress-code items that most lists skip.
What this solves
Generic Maldives packing lists forget that 30 minutes on a local island requires covered shoulders, or that a "fine dining" resort night requires more than flip-flops. This adjusts for trip type, excursions, and dress code.
How to read results
- Items are grouped by category — drag from "consider" if you don't need them.
- Reef-safe sunscreen is required at most marine-protected resorts — see the dedicated tool.
- Drone? Most resorts require written approval and a permit — usually $50–$100.
Limitations
This is a starting list, not a contract. Resorts sometimes restrict items (e.g., drones, speakers, outside alcohol). Always check the resort's pre-arrival email.
FAQ
Do I need reef shoes?
Helpful but not essential. Most house reefs are walkable in fins. Coral is sharp — avoid stepping on it.
Can I bring my own alcohol?
Many resorts charge a corkage fee ($20–$80/bottle). Local-island guesthouses often prohibit outside alcohol — see the alcohol rule mapper.
