Crown & Champa Resorts, the leading resort collection in the Maldives, will celebrate June wellness this year with inspiring wellbeing activities and energising experiences at its luxurious properties.
Wellness is integral to the ethos and offerings across the collection, and June wellness is an excellent opportunity to shine a spotlight on the benefits of healthy living and the remarkable ways to integrate wellness into everyday life.
Nine Crown & Champa properties will offer a myriad of specially curated experiences, including revitalising spa treatments, holistic wellness, culinary journeys, and mindfulness sessions on June 12, in observance of Global Wellness Day.
Celebrated in more than 100 countries across the world, Global Wellness Day was first established in 2012 as a day to come together and appreciate the beauty and variety of life, with an emphasis on living well, and inspired by the mantra: “One day can change your whole life.”
