Four Activities to Celebrate Your Honeymoon in Maldives

Published

on

Maldives Promotion House – We all begin simple. By nature we start off as lonely souls. But eventually we find that hidden spark to seek the familiar. To seek a partner to share the beautiful moments of our life. But before you begin your new life, it always calls for a celebration, a holiday of a lifetime. It doesn’t have to be the first holiday you’ve taken with your new spouse, but it is still your first as a married couple.

It’s your chance to leave behind the troubles of the world and to create a moment for you and your partner that you’ll want to remember forever. So what better place to be in than the luxurious islands of Maldives. It is true that a vast majority of honeymoons take place on luxury resorts, beautiful beaches and on boats. But there are these little refinements that can change the whole experience and turn it into something even better.

Candlelit dinner under the stars

One of the oldest tricks in the book, a candlelight dinner is meant to create a moment where the whole world seems to stop. But while most people tend to think that it is way too old for it to work, it is something that you will never get tired of. You can customise it and choose a setting that can bring out that intimacy that we all crave for. Many resorts offer this romantic service, whether it’s in your own private villa or on the beach, Maldives is famous for it. You can also choose your menu and tailor it for romance.

Couples massage

Sometimes honeymoons are all about taking that journey toward inner peace and relaxation. Especially if you are with your partner, then a massage is most certainly in order. Almost all luxury resorts in Maldives have award-winning spas that offer deals to honeymooners who desperately need to get rid of the stress of planning and executing a big, glamorous wedding. From rooftop spa pavilions that enable total relaxation as the wind blows gently through the treatment area to the sound of the ocean that lulls you to sleep, when it comes to relaxation Maldives has is all.  If you are into it you can also have private massage lessons so that you can try giving one to each other.

Scuba diving

It’s also true that if you haven’t experienced the glamorous underwater beauty of Maldives you haven’t experienced Maldives. Anyone who has ever been to the depths of Maldives will tell you that it is indeed a truly magical experience. It is a whole new world where you feel as if you have detached from the burdens of your body. While to some it is a spiritual journey it is also a journey that will leave you appreciating the vibrant colours that you never thought existed. Plus, most resorts that have a dive school will also offer you courses and training sessions, if you ever feel the need to become a professional. But remember, it is always that first dive that lingers on.

Romantic Sunset Cruise

Sunsets and sunrises are one of the most remarkable and mesmerising sights in Maldives. Here in Maldives it’s not a fantasy to just jump in on a yacht and sail away into a tropical sunset with your own chef and wine. Most luxury resorts have their very own luxury yachts and offer you packages entirely tailor-made to your desires. So don’t miss a private sunset cruise on a luxury yacht to a deserted island where fine wines, dinner and musicians await to serenade you and your spouse throughout the evening. It is an absolutely amazing experience that will give you a brand new perspective on the world.

Patina Maldives partners with FC Bayern Munich to host exclusive football camps

Published

on

Following a successful collaboration with Real Madrid last year, Patina Maldives continues its tradition of extraordinary partnerships: The luxury resort welcomes FC Bayern Munich for an exclusive series of football camps on the Fari Islands. A total of six camps will be offered throughout 2025, timed to coincide with school holidays. Football- loving children and teenagers will have the rare opportunity to train under the guidance of licensed coaches from the German champions – all against the spectacular backdrop of the Indian Ocean.

The core focus of the camps is the professional training based on FC Bayern’s proven approach, designed to enhance technical skills, tactical understanding and game intelligence. Under the guidance of highly qualified coaches, young participants will not only learn precise ball control and strategic thinking but also the importance of teamwork and a winning mentality. Divided into three age groups, the training ensures targeted, age-appropriate development for every individual. A special highlight: Each participant receives an official FC Bayern kit, including a shirt, shorts and socks, as a keepsake from unforgettable days on the field.

The Patina Maldives football camps are more than just training sessions, they blend athletic performance with summer ease. After intense practice sessions and valuable coaching tips, the Indian Ocean invites participants to explore its crystal-clear waters.

The camps offer an extraordinary experience not only for the young talents but also for their families, turning the stay into the perfect vacation for the whole family. While the young players refine offensive strategies, penalty kicks and solid defense on the field, parents and grandparents can unwind on the white sandy beaches, indulge in the award-winning spa, or explore a variety of leisure activities together — from sustainable initiatives like the Coral Restoration Project, where coral frames and ceramic structures are created, to watersport adventures and engaging art workshops. Patina Maldives offers a vacation concept that bridges generational needs. And with a bit of luck, a special surprise might be in store for both young and old: perhaps a professional football player will make a personal appearance!

The football camps will be held on the following dates: April 20th to 24th 2025, August 1st to 5th 2025, October 24th to 30th 2025, December 22nd to 26th 2025 and December 29th 2025 to January 2nd 2026.
