  • After 11 years we finally had our dream Maldives honeymoon at Vilamendhoo Island Resort and Spa in the Maldives and it was absolute paradise.
    It was everything we had hoped for and much much more.
    Before we went I set out to make our Maldives 2019 holiday the best video I could possibly make, but truth be told for once I was actually living in the moment rather than recording it to watch it back later.
    So I didn’t get half as much footage as I had hoped as I just kept forgetting to actually record!
    What we have included though is some Vilamendhoo house reef footage, some Vilamendhoo drone footage, some Vilamendhoo Snorkelling and some general footage from around the most beautiful island.
    Some of it is filmed on my GoPro Hero 7, I managed to actually get some Sony A6500 cinematic footage and I also filmed some of it with my new Mavic 2 Pro Drone!
    A little disclaimer here if you are wanting to take your drone to Vilamendhoo Maldives in 2019, drones are now prohibited on the island and I got strict instructions in order to use it. So if we were to go back I definitely wouldn’t take it as I wouldn’t be able to use it.
    Hope you enjoy our Maldives Cinematic video!

To avoid the need to adjust the focus manually. Thanks

It was a shame, but apparently it’s all because all of the beach villas and water villas, the bathrooms are all open air, which makes sense having a drone ban in place.. We were always told November to April is the best time but the out of season months still apparently get some decent weather 😀
