Encounter a lavish all-inclusive experience in the Indian Ocean, with mindful moments to honor women’s achievements and equality for all
MALDIVES – Celebrate International Women’s Day on March 8 at Le Méridien Maldives Resort & Spa, with the resort’s first-ever programme to spotlight the incredible achievements of women, alongside impeccable, thoughtful and caring service.
The day’s festivities begin with a sunrise yoga session by the seaside sunrise platform, exclusive for female guests. Led by resident yogi, Tia, at the break of dawn, ladies can energise both body and mind through meditation, combined with breathing techniques, with a routine designed to awaken the soul.
Following the restful yoga Savasana, the ladies of Waves Café await to serve a nourishing breakfast. The café venue will be exclusively operated by female staff during International Women’s Day, ensuring a mindful and conscious dining experience, combined with light, healthy bites and nutrient-rich dishes sourced from the island’s hydroponic greenhouse. The menu will also feature a special guilt-free, organic dessert.
Make time to pamper yourself at the serene Explore Spa, perched over the water with panoramic ocean views. Available for USD 220++, the special International Women’s Day package is the perfect treat, combining a full-body massage, a mini facial and foot scrub for two hours of pure bliss.
Every female guest will be invited for a complimentary Afternoon Tea, featuring myriad bites, with French pastries and local touches. The tea ceremony is hosted by Le Méridien Maldives Resort & Spa female culinary team. Meanwhile, ladies seeking something more active can check-in at the Watersports & Dive Hub, with a 15% saving for women on a range of activities.
The day will culminate with a sunset soirée, with technicolor dusk hues and dedicated cocktails. Four libations will be specially crafted to mark the occasion, with an homage to feminist movements through history. The evening will also be the host of the day’s raffle draw, with prizes from the Explore Spa, Water Sports & Dive Hubs and Restaurants & Bars up for winning.
Alongside the special one-day programme, visitors can also avail the Le Meridien All-Inclusive Experience, which can be paired with tropical forest encounters and a guided nature trail experience for younger guests, across Bodu Finolhu. The package, of course, includes a taste of the good life with an array of tastes and aromas from the resort’s signature dining outlets, all included within the package.
European and Asian breakfast favourites are served daily in Turquoise, a fresh and interactive space where guests can start their day in the morning Indian Ocean breeze. Lunch and dinner are also on offer at the smart casual outlet, alongside alternative options at Waves Café, Latitude, Velaa Bar + Grill and Riviera – an adults-only bar.
Guests who choose the all-inclusive experience can also enjoy unlimited beverage consumption from a select list of refreshments, including non-alcoholic beverages and cocktails and international branded spirits, wines and beer by the glass.
