Published

on

The Spa and Ayurvedic Retreat at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru has appointed new makeup consultant Anastasia Eberhardt, and partnered with organic, ethical cosmetics brand RMS to boost its natural beauty offering.

Born and raised in Scandinavia, Anastasia Eberhardt is a professional fashion stylist and makeup artist with an impressive portfolio. Savvy and stylish, her International Business Degree sits alongside her Art of Style training with Linda Christensen. Her experience extends to the film, theatre, television and print media industries, including work with international brands ranging from L’Oreal to H&M.

Additionally, the award-winning RMS Beauty products are available both for tailored treatments and retail purchase and work in synergy with the ‘natural beauty’ approach of the onsite Rossano Ferretti salon.

Conceived and created by Rose-Marie Swift, a celebrity, catwalk and magazine makeup artist with over 35 years of experience, RMS products are organic and non-toxic, and are intended to heal and nourish the skin. The brand was born following Rose-Marie’s personal health issues and the discovery that these stemmed from her extensive, daily exposure to chemicals found in cosmetics. Designed to support long-term health and natural beauty, RMS products use organic, raw, food grade ingredients in their natural ‘living’ state: the enzymes, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and healing properties remain intact to penetrate and rejuvenate the skin.

Named as the Best Holistic Hideaway by the Condé Nast Traveller Spa Guide 2016 and Best Innovative Spa Concept in the Gala Spa Awards 2016, The Spa and Ayurvedic Retreat at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru merges medically accredited therapies with ancient holistic sciences in a 1.2-hectare (three-acre) setting that stretches from the heart of the island to the middle of the lagoon.

Combining innovation, wellness and conservation, Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru is a 44-acre, 103-villa wonderland in the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve — a 30-minute seaplane flight from the main Velana International Airport.

Its sister property, Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa, lies to the south: an enchanting garden island complete with Island Spa sea sanctuary and Tropicsurf coaches and guides. The luxury catamaran Four Seasons Explorer connects the two via three, four and seven-night cruises, plus private leisure, surf and manta ray charters.

The latest addition to the Maldives collection, Four Seasons Private Island Maldives at Voavah, Baa Atoll opened in December as the group’s first exclusive-use private island: off limits to everyone else, limitless to the guests.

Pulse Hotels & Resorts unveils eco-chic Eri Maldives in North Malé Atoll

Published

on

Eri Maldives has officially opened in the North Malé Atoll, introducing a new eco-chic lifestyle resort concept focused on accessible island living in the Maldives. Located a 45-minute speedboat journey from Velana International Airport, the resort combines ease of access with the calm of a natural island environment, offering a streamlined escape for travellers seeking authenticity rather than artificial luxury.

Set on a lush natural island, Eri Maldives is defined by dense greenery and a vibrant house reef accessible directly from the shore. The resort operates under the philosophy of “The Island of Becoming”, favouring genuine cultural immersion over traditional hospitality formality. Local arts, Maldivian cuisine and cultural practices shape the daily rhythm of island life, supported by a focus on mindful living that integrates sustainability and wellbeing throughout the guest experience. Visitors are encouraged to disconnect, slow down and engage more deeply with both the island and its cultural heritage.

Accommodation at the resort is offered across four categories designed to prioritise comfort, connection and simplicity. Beach Pool Villas feature private pools surrounded by tropical vegetation, while Beach Villas offer direct access to the shoreline and lagoon sunsets. Beach Studios, located on the ground floor, provide immediate beach access, and Sky Studios on the upper level include private balconies with expansive lagoon views. Dining follows the same relaxed approach, with Full Board Plus and All-Inclusive options available across three venues: international cuisine at Soul Kitchen, casual beachfront dining at Beach Shack, and sunset refreshments at Sip & Dip.

Adventure and relaxation are balanced through a range of experiences. A five-star PADI dive centre operated by Euro-Divers provides access to more than 30 recognised dive sites, alongside a comprehensive water sports programme. For restorative experiences, Eskape Spa is set within the island’s tropical canopy, offering holistic treatments and ocean-inspired rituals rooted in Maldivian traditions. The resort also curates bespoke celebrations, including destination dining under the stars and vow renewals accompanied by traditional Bodu Beru drumming.

Commenting on the opening, General Manager Haroon Mohamed stated that Eri Maldives is founded on the principle of experiencing the Maldives in an authentic and uncomplicated way, with an emphasis on wellbeing and meaningful connection. He noted that the resort aims to create moments that leave guests feeling cared for, understood and positively transformed.

Frederic Brohez, Chief Operating Officer of Pulse Hotels & Resorts, said the opening marks a significant addition to the group’s portfolio, introducing an eco-chic lifestyle brand designed for environmentally conscious travellers seeking a genuine Maldivian escape. He added that Eri Maldives reflects the group’s broader vision of sustainable island living, where design, community and wellbeing are closely aligned.

Eri Maldives is now welcoming guests. To mark its opening, the resort has introduced a limited-time launch offer featuring exclusive savings and added inclusions. Further information is available via the resort’s official website.
