Have you tried emailing dream maldives to see if they can beat the quote
also look at cosmos as they only offer water villas and jacuzzi WV at meeru and when I have been looking for nov this year they come out cheapest for WV. (also cosmos is with a seaplane transfer)
also Kuoni may offer a better deal.0 -

I've not tried cosmos, but Kuoni were a lot more expensive and the lady at Dream Maldives said they weren't very competitive for Meeru deals but they can do good deals for Kuredu (our other option)0 -
Can anyone beat this price plz?
