This winter, The Standard, Huruvalhi Maldives, invites wellness enthusiasts to return to the spa’s roots as a healing-by-water experience with its multi-day wellness retreats, surrounded by the beauty of the sparkling Indian Ocean. Combining the healing powers of the tropics with its signature hydrotherapy therapy, the resort’s comprehensive wellness packages are designed to maximise vacation time by simultaneously boosting energy levels, calming the nervous system and revitalising the skin.
The essential Five-Day Wellness Retreat begins with sleep-focused therapy to minimise jet lag before introducing newly arrived holidaymakers to the resort’s signature wellness journey that combines Deep Sleep treatment, Sunrise yoga, meditation and many more. With a relaxing tone set for the week ahead, each day of the programme then features a carefully curated combination of activities and treatments for both body and soul, such as sunrise yoga paired with sound healing massage, sunset salutation yoga with the comforting heat of hammam, and hour-long guided meditation with candle massage, an ancestral Thai technique combining fragrance, heat and long strokes for improved wellbeing.
For longer wellness-focused stays, guests can opt for the Seven-Day Wellness Retreat, which builds on the essentials by incorporating beauty treatments for a lasting post-holiday glow and expanding the range of yoga therapies to include hatha and aqua yoga. The final day features a crystal rose facial and Pranayama meditation, sealing in the benefits and leaving guests feeling deeply rejuvenated and balanced, ready to return to their daily lives with a renewed sense of wellbeing.
As part of both packages, guests will be able to make full use of the resort’s signature hydrotherapy circuit – featuring the only communal hammam in the Maldives – which includes a cypress aroma steam room and a contrast plunge shower, all with stunning views of the calm waters. Once inside, the experience begins with a thorough cleanse in an indoor co-ed hammam inspired by global bathing cultures. With scrub and mud provided, guests can enjoy a communal DIY session or a private treatment to benefit from detoxification, improved circulation, better skin and increased metabolism.
Afterwards, guests can relax with a reviving elixir at Tonic Lounge & Pool, the ocean-facing spa extension, which also hosts yoga sessions by night. At the adjacent Sun Lounge, a vibrant apothecary offers natural skincare and lifestyle products for guests who want to continue their wellness journey at home, ensuring they can maintain their glow and wellbeing long after their stay.
