Is it true that there are many sand fleas in the Maldives?

On one hand, I understand that it is more likely an exception to come across something like this, but on the other hand, we have our first child, he is 1.2 years old, and this will be his first flight and first time at the sea. So I'm wondering if it's worth choosing the Maldives for this first time? I have doubts about the long flight, but it's either with a layover through the UAE or taking a night flight so he can sleep. As for the medical aspect, I have a ton of fears, after all, the child is small and there could be overheating/allergies to the sun or some bite/fleas/rotavirus (by the way, does it even happen in the Maldives?). Which islands and hotels should we look at for 2 adults with a child, with a budget of 300-350 (maybe a little more) for 7-8 nights on Full Board with drinks (we don't drink alcohol), a good entrance to the water, reachable by boat rather than by plane, with varied food (for the child, rice, potatoes, different meats, fish and seafood with fruits, and everything not spicy) and to ensure that there is a doctor nearby just in case?

Hello. We traveled to the Maldives for the first time with my youngest at 1.1. But I didn't initially have such fears, of course.

I can handle basic ailments myself without a doctor.

In my opinion, the Maldives is the perfect place for a vacation with children.

We tolerate flights better with a layover than 10 hours straight. We had a night flight going there, and a day flight coming back. I can't say it was difficult either way. It depends on how your little one perceives new people and places)

It is only unclear what "fb with drinks" means. The standard fb will include tea-coffee-juice (not fresh) in the morning and water during the other meals.
