Spa Cenvaree at Centara Ras Fushi Resort Maldives named as the Best Luxury Emerging Spa in the Indian Ocean for 2014

Maldives.net.mv – Spa Cenvaree at Centara Ras Fushi Resort & Spa Maldives has been named as the Best Luxury Emerging Spa in the Indian Ocean in the World Luxury Spa Awards for 2014.
The resort, which is an adults-only destination, opened in April 2013.
Spa Cenvaree is the luxury spa brand of Centara Hotels & Resorts, and currently has 27 branches.
“We are very proud indeed to receive this prestigious award, which confirms that Spa Cenvaree is a successful international luxury spa brand,” says Thirayuth Chirathivat, chief executive officer of Centara Hotels & Resorts.
“Our Spa Cenvaree in Centara Grand Beach Resort Phuket won the same award in 2012.
“We believe the reason behind the success of the brand is that along with the Thai healing heritage and the use of natural products, we offer a very traditional and warm Thai style of hospitality.”
Spa Cenvaree at Centara Ras Fushi Resort & Spa Maldives is designed as a series of treatment pavilions set around a courtyard, with suites for both singles and couples.
There is also a Thai massage pavilion, an herbal steam room and sauna, and a relaxation room that serves healthy snacks and refreshments.
Set on a small island just 15 minutes away by speedboat from Male International Airport, the resort has 140 villas located oceanside or perched above the lagoon.
Guests have the option of All-Inclusive or Half-Board Plus accommodation programs.
Children under the age of 12 years are not accommodated at the resort, which within six weeks of its opening was rated number one for couples and honeymooners on TripAdvisor’s list of resorts in North Male Atoll.

ELE|NA extends the wellness experience beyond the treatment room through group sessions such as guided meditations, sea and sound therapies, and aroma-intent practices. Guests can also enjoy bespoke VOYA bathing rituals in-spa or in-villa, including Detoxifying Seaweed Baths and Warm Spiced Mud Baths.
Guests are encouraged to continue their wellness journeys at home with a curated retail collection of VOYA products, including body oils, essential oils, pulse point oils, and aromatic room scents—each inspired by the tranquility and vitality of the ocean.
With a shared commitment to sustainability, ELE|NA and VOYA honour the ocean through ethical sourcing and eco-conscious practices. This partnership goes beyond providing luxurious spa experiences—it pays tribute to the sea’s natural rhythms and healing energy.
As part of the World Ocean Day celebration, ELE|NA invites guests to reconnect with nature and their inner selves. The transformative power of the ocean is available starting this July at THE OZEN COLLECTION.

Global Wellness Day 2025 at Milaidhoo: journey of transformation and reconnection

On Global Wellness Day, celebrated on 14th June 2025, Milaidhoo invites guests to embrace a deeper sense of presence and harmony through its unique wellbeing philosophy rooted in ‘slow living.’ Reflecting the global theme of #ReconnectMagenta, which emphasises the importance of meaningful connections, Milaidhoo’s curated programme encourages guests to reconnect with themselves, the community, and the natural world in one of the most serene settings on Earth.
Situated in the heart of the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Milaidhoo is more than a boutique island retreat; it is a sanctuary for mindful rejuvenation. At Milaidhoo, wellness extends beyond the spa, permeating every detail of the guest experience — from barefoot living and soulful seclusion to fresh, nourishing cuisine and personalised wellness menus designed to support individual journeys of transformation.
Global Wellness Day 2025 at Milaidhoo will begin with a soul-awakening dynamic cleansing and yoga nidra session at 8:00 on an exclusive sandbank. This session offers guests a chance to silence external noise, realign with their inner rhythm, and reconnect with themselves amidst the Indian Ocean horizon.
At 11:00, guests will have the opportunity to participate in a coral plantation activity led by the resort’s marine biologist at the Ocean Stories Aquatic Centre. This interactive conservation initiative allows guests to give back to the local ecosystem and fosters an emotional connection to the broader community of life beneath the waves.
In the afternoon, from 16:00 to 17:00, guests can embark on a guided mindful walking experience around the island. This activity invites participants to reconnect with nature through observation and intention, with each barefoot step across soft sand and lush jungle paths revealing the healing power of nature.
At Milaidhoo, food is an integral part of wellness, with every dish curated with wellbeing in mind. Whether it is plant-based vitality bowls from the Chef’s Garden, fresh-caught seafood, or custom-designed menus tailored to individual health goals, guests are encouraged to nourish not only their bodies but also their senses.
Paul van Frank, Milaidhoo’s general manager, shared, “Our wellness ethos embraces the art of slowing down and living in the moment. Global Wellness Day is an opportunity to remind guests of the power of reconnecting with themselves, with each other, and with the beautiful world around them.”
