Published

on

Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa has announced its distinction as one of the pioneering resorts in the Maldives to achieve ISO 14001 certification, a testament to its unwavering commitment to sustainability and eco-conscious practices.

The ISO 14001 certification is a prestigious recognition that underscores the resort’s dedication to providing guests with a greener and more environmentally friendly experience. Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa has implemented a range of initiatives that not only set them apart in the hospitality industry but also contribute significantly to the preservation of the delicate ecosystem of the Maldives.

Among the standout initiatives is the replacement of single-use plastic bottles with ceramic dispensers for shower essentials, a move that results in the saving of over 100,000 plastic bottles annually, contributing significantly to the reduction of plastic pollution. The introduction of eco-friendly jute slippers, which decompose in just 40 days, is another innovative step in minimizing the resort’s ecological footprint compared to traditional EVA slippers.

Moreover, the resort has integrated eco-friendly bathroom accessories into the guest experience. Bamboo toothbrushes, wheat starch razors, paper-stemmed cotton buds, and jute loofahs have replaced their plastic counterparts, resulting in the saving of thousands of plastic items and preventing them from polluting the environment.

In a bid to support sustainable coffee consumption, Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa has shifted to biodegradable coffee capsules, thereby minimizing long-term pollution and landfill accumulation. The resort’s commitment to reducing plastic waste extends to the introduction of reusable glass water bottles, eliminating the need for over 75,000 single-use plastic bottles annually.

The collective efforts of these sustainability initiatives have led to remarkable plastic savings, with the resort saving over 138,000 single-use plastic bottles, 8,000 plastic toothbrushes, 5,000 plastic razors, and 25,000 plastic cotton buds annually. This amounts to an impressive total of 176,000 plastics saved per year, reflecting Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa’s dedication to making a substantial positive impact on the environment.

As sustainability leaders in the Maldives, the attainment of ISO 14001 certification marks a significant milestone for Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa. The resort remains steadfast in its commitment to fostering a cleaner, more sustainable future for all, setting a shining example for the hospitality industry in the Maldives and beyond.

Published

Revolutionary techniques for radiant skin from within. It’s the promise from one of the world’s leading skincare experts as she returns to her first resort-based studio. Teresa Tarmey will be in residence from April 14 to 23 at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru, launching two new, gravity-reversing treatments alongside her legendary Signature Facial. Radio frequency, advanced LED technology, holistic massage, and a patented peptide infusion combine for visible results with no downtime.

With more than 27 years’ experience, Vogue’s “super-facialist,” Dior’s global skin expert from 2021 to 2023 and board member of the British Beauty Council, Teresa Tarmey is renowned for her results-driven, clinically-backed treatments. Her innovative approach and less-is-more skincare philosophy has achieved cult-like status, attracting a wealth of industry insiders and A-list clients alike.

In 2020, Tarmey launched her first resort-based studio at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru – SpaChina’s Global Wellness Resort 2024. On-site therapists were trained in her exclusive facials to offer year-round access to legendary beauty secrets. Now, the skincare guru is back to launch the all-new Skin Master Plus and Ultimate Radio Frequency Facial, as well as training four protegees while in residence.

“We’re thrilled to have the world-renowned Teresa Tarmey in residence with two new treatments at Landaa over Easter,” comments Dr Arun Thomson, Senior Director of AyurMa. “It’s an amazing opportunity for guests to experience in-person magic from the go-to facialist to the stars. Our therapists are also excited to gain insights into her new treatments so we can offer year-round facial innovation in UNESCO Biosphere surrounds.”

New for 2025:

Skin Master Plus by Teresa Tarmey – A truly pioneering facial treatment for complete skin rejuvenation, the Skinmaster Plus treatment uses a cutting-edge ultrasound-based dermabrasion and infusion system that focuses on the three key steps of an effective facial: skin cleansing, skin cell renewal and deep ingredient infusion to promote clean, healthy skin. The treatment combines state-of-the-art ultrasound technology and with Teresa Tarmey’s high-performance, patented peptides designed to leave skin not only looking rejuvenated but feeling it from within. Suitable for all skin types, it leaves the skin clean, nourished and smooth – all with no downtime.

The Ultimate Radio Frequency Facial – Combines pioneering patented technology in one results-driven treatment. The Ultimate Cleanse -powered by the signature TT Cleanser – is followed by a bespoke lactic acid peel to restore a brighter and clearer complexion. Non-invasive Radio Frequency uses electromagnetic waves to firm, lift and plump skin, and tailored LED Light Therapy stimulates collagen production to treat conditions such as acne, hyperpigmentation, rosacea, age spots and sun damage.

Teresa Tarmey fans will be delighted to see her Signature Facial on the menu too. Alongside tailored LED light therapy, this uplifting experience includes the exclusive TT Cryoball: an ice treatment that reduces inflammation, tightens pores, improves skin texture and increases circulation for a healthy, plump appearance.

The world-leading facials join an elevated vision for holistic living at the Resort’s healing haven AyurMa. Located in Landaa’s jungle heart, AyurMa is an invitation to guests to cultivate care for themselves, others, the oceans and the entire planet. Days follow nature’s rhythms, beginning with Wake Up to Wonder, a sensory exploration of an awakening island, and close with shared gratitude ritual, Rahumathuge Vaguthu (Earth Blessing).
