Kandima Maldives has brought together an awesome mix of bloggers, social influencers and special guests for the first ever Insta Weekend in the Maldives.

The #KandimaInstaWeekend began on Thursday with the participation of Montana Brown and Georgia Harrison from the latest series of ITV’s Love Island, English social influencer CC Clarke, blogger Lynn, fashion blogger Sara Desideria, Singaporean actress  Dawn Yeoh and Australian actress and TV presenter Brooke Chamberlain. They have been given a map of top Insta Spots for social media shots.

The #KandimaInstaWeekend, which will go on till Tuesday, includes a Cardio Blast followed by a sunset mingle and meet up at Azure, Kandima’s chic beach house restaurant. During the programme, the Insta guests get to chill out by the longest pool in the Maldives, parasail, dive with hammerhead sharks, catch a wave with a bit of surfing and plug into some zen vibes with relaxing yoga at sunset.

The guests are also learning how to give a massage at the new esKape Spa and trying their hand at some art with a KULA art class — part of Kandima’s new art initiative devised with local artists whose work will be exhibited throughout the resort.

“The InstaWeekenders’ experience will mirror how Kandima Maldives’ guests would really like to live at home. The resort doesn’t get hung up on luxury and exclusivity — it’s for everyone. It’s a place where guests can chill, be active, healthy, and creative and know that they are being eco-friendly too,” a statement issued by the resort read.

The Insta guests are sharing their experiences with these hashtags: #MyKindOfPlace #JustPlay #AnythingButOrdinary #TheKandimaBuzz #GetKandimatised.
