Hard Rock Hotel Maldives introduces summer family camp-cation

Hard Rock Hotel Maldives has introduced its new Summer Family Camp-Cation to combine family vacation with an amazing kids camp this summer.
The summer camp will provide kids with fun-filled discovery opportunities, while offering parents a picture-perfect oasis of relaxation, a vacation every member of the family can enjoy.
The ‘Play Hard, Pause Hard’ camp-cation customises experiences for adults and for kids, elevating every moment as a ‘Hard Rock state of mind.’
The unique camp setting features three distinct curriculums featuring sports, craft, and arts.
Highlights of the programme include the sports curriculum, which includes Aerial Arts at The Stage and the aerial arts studio, with award-winning aerial instructor Lauren Ault — introducing a new form of art to kids as they express their creativity, improve their coordination and gain superhero balance and strength. Campers will learn to familiarise themselves with apparatuses such as silks, hoops, juggling, trapeze and hammocks.
Street Safe, a self-defence programme created by Master Leo Vieira of CHECKMAT Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy and conducted by Gold Medalist and brown belt Miguel Gomez, will help develop confidence amongst the camp attendees through social discipline while introducing them to basic skills of body movement, leverage and flow.
The arts and crafts curriculum promises an equally engaging experience with various types of dance lessons, music classes, gardening tutorials, marine life discovery classes, educational tours and more.
Stunning views and legendary amenities take the Summer Family Camp-Cation at Hard Rock Hotel Maldives to the next level with 178 extravagant guest rooms, suites, villas and over water pool villas. No matter how big or small the family, there is a villa that suits every group, and comes with complimentary junior Rock Stars in-room amenities and perks.
Kids will enjoy Hard Rock’s Roxity Kids’ Club and Teen Spirit hanging with the coolest crew around, and the Roxtars colourful, music-inspired characters to keep the kids entertained so guests can shop, eat, sleep, or relax.
With both indoor and outdoor venues, the resort completes a family trip to the Maldives for kids with space for performances as well as grassy and sandy spaces outdoors for them to explore.
Weekly highlights include the s’mores bonfire, glow party, family funfair and pool party. All come together to create an unforgettable family experience.

Located within CROSSROADS Maldives – the first integrated multi-island leisure destination in the country, Hard Rock Hotel Maldives is just a 15-minute boat ride from the airport.
Inspired by local culture, tropical architecture is infused with contemporary design featured alongside regionally inspired authentic music memorabilia.
The hotel also offers direct access to The Marina @ CROSSROADS Maldives, where an array of shops and over 10 restaurants, all styled on the chic elegance of a European Riviera, await.
From authentic American cuisine at Hard Rock Cafe to the acclaimed flavours of Ministry of Crab’s award-winning dishes and finely curated local specialties, the culinary offering sees a collision of cultures come together to offer an array of exotic international cuisines.

The Nautilus Maldives redefines children’s spaces with ecoBirdy

The Nautilus Maldives, an ultra-luxury bohemian private island retreat in the heart of the Indian Ocean, has announced a partnership with ecoBirdy, the award-winning Belgian family-owned design brand renowned for its innovative approach to design rooted in social and environmental responsibility.
As part of this collaboration, The Nautilus has redesigned the furnishings of its Young Wonderers children’s club and The Nautilus Lounge at Velana International Airport. These areas now showcase ecoBirdy’s thoughtfully curated and ergonomically designed pieces, created from repurposed plastic toys. The result is an immersive experience for young guests that seamlessly blends creativity, sustainability, and style.
ecoBirdy, founded in 2018 by designers Vanessa Yuan and Joris Vanbriel, originated as a research initiative co-funded by the European Commission. The project aimed to develop a sustainable method for recycling plastic toys. ecoBirdy’s patented recycling process starts with the collection of used toys, undergoes a conscientious recycling journey, and concludes with the crafting of contemporary, functional furniture and home accessories. Central to their designs is ecothylene®—a 100% recycled and recyclable material—used to create visually distinctive and ergonomically supportive products tailored to children’s comfort, autonomy, and development.
From the moment children arrive at The Nautilus Airport Lounge to their playful experiences at Young Wonderers, they are welcomed into environments that emphasise imagination, beauty, and respect for nature. Each ecoBirdy piece is designed to foster children’s independence, featuring ergonomic shapes and easy-to-grip elements that reflect a deep understanding of young behaviour.
Adan Gomez, General Manager of The Nautilus Maldives, expressed that the partnership reflects the resort’s values: “This collaboration embodies The Nautilus’s ethos. Like ecoBirdy, we are family-founded and built on authenticity, creativity, and responsibility. Together, we’ve created inspiring spaces that not only delight our youngest guests but also reflect our commitment to timeless hospitality and respect for our planet.”
Joris Vanbriel, co-founder of ecoBirdy, noted, “True luxury carries a responsibility to future generations. Partnering with The Nautilus allows us to bring sustainable design to a new generation of conscious explorers.” Fellow co-founder Vanessa Yuan added, “We believe design has the power to inspire change. Through this collaboration, we hope to nurture creativity, care, and environmental stewardship among young guests of The Nautilus.”
At The Nautilus, where time stands still and freedom reigns, each young guest is invited to discover that the most meaningful form of luxury lies in living thoughtfully.
