Noha Mohamed to lead Soneva Fushi’s award-winning kids’ club
Soneva Fushi has appointed Noha Mohamed as its new manager at The Den, the resort’s award-winning children’s club.
Noha is the first Maldivian woman to hold the position of Den Manager. Prior to her appointment, she was serving as Assistant Den Manager.
Commenting on her promotion, Noha said: “I’ve always believed that anything is possible even when the odds are against me. I embrace challenges and follow my passion with determination because I know I can do it.”
Inspired by childhood wonder, The Den is a playground for the imagination. Children can explore a pirate ship, two swimming pools, a Lego room, dress-up and makeup area, cinema, library, learning area and a music room filled with instruments.
The Den also runs activities dedicated to teenagers.
Noha is an experienced childcare professional, with over 10 years’ experience in the fields of children’s education and childcare, as well as extensive experience in the hospitality industry. She joined Soneva in 2010 as a babysitter, since then, she worked her way up the ranks and was appointed Den Manager in January.
“My career started at Soneva Fushi with the position of casual babysitter. After a tough grind for three years in this position, I proved myself to the management and I became a permanent Host as a Den Supervisor. When I look back, I feel so proud of myself. In 2019, I became the Assistant Manager of the biggest children’s club in the Maldives, and it was a reflective moment,” Noha added.
“Today that reflection has taken me along the path to Den Manager, and I cannot be more thrilled. The Soneva family has given me a team to guide and an opportunity to grow. I appreciate the chance taken on me to make mistakes, learn, and grow. Being able to call Soneva Fushi my second home is a true honour. I want to thank my elder sister, Hannah, who works as a Kid’s Club Manager at another resort in the Maldives, for all her support and the time she spent helping me along this journey.”

Soneva is currently hiring for new positions at Soneva Fushi and Soneva Jani. To see the available list of open positions please visit the Soneva careers website.
Soneva is a pioneering family of hospitality properties, offering holistic encounters in luxurious and inspiring environments – from world class resorts to outstanding natural locations.

Grand Park Kodhipparu transforms into an Easter island wonderland
This Easter, retreat to award-nominated island luxury resort just 20 minutes by speedboat from Velana International Airport.
With direct international flights into Malé from Europe and Asia, access to the Maldives is refreshingly straightforward—and at Grand Park Kodhipparu, the transition from runway to lagoon takes just 20 effortless minutes. No domestic flights. No lengthy transfers. Simply step off the plane and into turquoise waters.

A Playful Island Wonderland
Throughout the Easter period, the island transforms into a playful natural wonderland. Children and parents alike can explore island-wide treasure trails, take part in hands-on creative workshops, and dive beneath the lagoon for underwater egg hunts, before gathering under the stars for family movie nights on the beach. At the heart of the celebrations is the resort’s signature Kodhipparu Island Discovery Quest–a gentle, story-led journey across seven themed stations designed to encourage families to slow down, explore together and reconnect with the island’s natural beauty.
Stay Longer, Reconnect More
To enhance the Easter escape, guests booking directly are invited to take advantage of the resort’s Stay Longer Offer, with villa rates from USD 349 and 30% savings on all villas for stays of four nights or more, complemented by added value across dining, wellbeing and marine experiences throughout the stay.

From exploring our vibrant house reef to slowing down together on the Island Discovery Quest, every experience is designed to feel effortless, meaningful and shared.”
Guests can enjoy daily buffet breakfast at The Edge restaurant, savings across all dining outlets, the spa and selected marine activities, as well as a dedicated Lifestyle Host service ensuring a seamless, personalised stay. Wellbeing and discovery are central to the experience, with sunrise and sunset yoga sessions offering moments of calm and curiosity in equal measure. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available across the island, from private villas to outdoor spaces.

Royal Island introduces Easter escape with up to 25% savings
For travellers who prefer Easter with a softer pace and a more intimate sense of place, Royal Island offers a boutique island retreat in Baa Atoll, part of the Maldives’ UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Available under Villa Resorts’ Easter Offer, guests can enjoy up to 25% savings when booking direct, with an Easter Escape that also includes exclusive direct booking benefits and 50% off domestic flight transfers for Royal Island.
Royal Island’s charm is in how quickly it helps you ease into island life. It’s not a resort built around a busy schedule, but one that encourages the simple rituals that make a holiday feel restorative: slow mornings by the lagoon, barefoot afternoons that drift from beach to shade, and evenings that arrive gently with the sound of the ocean. The boutique scale keeps everything feeling personal, warm, and unforced.
Accommodation reflects that same sense of calm. The resort’s Beach Pool Villas bring privacy and space into the holiday, with indoor-outdoor living and your own pool just steps from the shoreline, ideal for couples seeking quiet togetherness or families wanting comfort without feeling far from the sea.
Easter at Royal Island can be made especially memorable through private dining, with intimate set-ups that feel true to the island’s character, simple, beautiful, and focused on the people you are sharing the moment with. Families are also well catered for, with younger guests enjoying their own island adventures at Starfish Kids Club, giving parents time to unwind while children stay happily engaged.
With its boutique feel, biosphere setting, and island-first rhythm, Royal Island is an invitation to celebrate Easter in the Maldives in a way that feels gentler, more personal, and genuinely unhurried.

A key highlight for ocean lovers is Villa Park’s location in the South Ari Marine Protected Area (SAMPA), a region known for year-round whale shark sightings.
