The Maldivian archipelago is for you to relax, rest and enjoy a tropical paradise; while you're at it indulge and pamper yourself by trying out the many holistic spa treatments on offer.
Consisting of over a 1,000 islands spread across the Indian Ocean, the Maldives knows just how to make use of both land and sea. Pleasures and experiences are not merely land based, the archipelago is based across land and sea, and the spas have gone the length to offer visitors the pure bliss of receiving holistic treatments in a space below the ocean waves. The underwater spas of Maldives are very famous; imagine yourself being pampered and fussed around as you look beyond the glass panelled walls revealing corals and curious little marine animals while enjoying the absolute tranquillity of a space deep within the ocean.
Guests at Kuramathi Maldives are privy to this type of spa; a wooden jetty set on the shimmering ocean offering endless vistas of the blue horizon. Let loose and relax, as you enjoy the sheer bliss of ancient Ayurvedic massages, to the soothing sound of the ocean and calming effect of balmy breezes that wash over you. Close your eyes and drift away to another realm of peace and tranquillity as herbal remedies coupled with ancient rituals aimed at soothing mind body and soul, work their magic.
The Maldives is most famous for its sun bleached, powdery, white sand beaches. The sand is quite heavenly to sink your feet into and has been thus incorporated into spa treatments that promise relief from muscular aches and pains. The process works wonders in rejuvenating mind body and soul as the traditional massage uses an age old formula and therapy, to soothe away all aches and pains.
Most Maldives spa resorts offer signature spa treatments that are unique and aimed at curing specific needs. The carefully thought out, and well-honed signature treatments, offer hands on therapeutic cures that work wonders in restoring balance and vitality to a tired body. Check with your Maldives resort spa for all types of signature treatments on offer, and you will be surprised at the types of specialised therapies on offer, that promise to cure specific ailments or simply uplift and rejuvenate mind body and soul.
Beaches in the Maldives are framed by swaying coconut palms, and indeed the coconut influences many aspects of the Maldivian lifestyle; from cuisine to handicrafts and spa treatments. A coconut oil massage is, therefore, a must when in this tropical paradise; coconut oil massages have many benefits centred around soothing and hydrating the skin. The practice is ancient and honed over the years, hence, you can look forward to a truly soothing treatment.
