Most island resorts have their own spa. The Island Spa at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa has its own island. In this serene hideaway within a hideaway, you can feel as one with the ocean. Let the gentle rhythms of the earth soothe your senses, allowing cares and tensions to dissolve and wash away.

Sail in a wooden dhoni (traditional Maldivian boat) across the lagoon to the island. There, luxuriate in one of seven thatched spa pavilions that are positioned over the water, open to the ocean breezes and panoramic vistas of endless blue sky and sea. Each treatment pavilion features a viewing port in the deck so that guests enjoying a massage can contemplate the aquatic playground below.

Just as the Maldives is a world blend of cultures, from Indian to Arabic, the design of the Island Spa captures an authentic sense of place. Asian-inspired, innovative treatments rejuvenate in facilities complete with oversized deep soaking tubs and a private garden courtyard with an open-air shower. Indigenous treatments pay tribute to the restorative power of marine nutrients and celebrate the therapeutic effects of aromatic oils and spices.

Yoga pavilion
An open-air yoga and meditation platform faces the boundless ocean, inspiring those who practise the ancient ritual to find mental, physical and emotional balance. The Resort’s resident yogi invites you to private training sessions, customised to individual liking and needs:

• Asanas – body positions
• Pranayama – breathing techniques
• Dhayan – concentration techniques
• Yoga nidra – relaxation techniques

Fee applies for private sessions. Please ask for details.
