Published

on

With China’s hedonistic Golden Week fast approaching, the team at The Standard, Huruvalhi Maldives is turning the island into a fun central during the week of 1-7 October. The daily-changing lineup of activities promises to keep everyone on their toes with sunrise yoga, social mixers, lantern-making classes, canoe racing, late-night karaoke sessions and so much more.

  • Day 1: Rising bright and early, adults can channel their inner Zen master with hatha yoga at the spa. Meanwhile, youngsters will be getting their craft on with lantern making, before joining parents at Todis Beach for a lively social mixer. New friendships will blossom over delectable Chinese fare from Kula’s generous buffet, complete with festive décor and a fire show on the beach.
  • Day 2: After rolling glutinous rice balls under a pasty chef’s supervision, guests can find inner peace with crystal healing, tuck into the day’s catch at Kula’s seafood buffet and end the day on a high note with a 90s karaoke at Beru Bar.
  • Day 3: For adults, there is a hands-on massage masterclass at the spa, while kids will be busy crafting symbols of luck from paper at the kids’ club. After feasting on Chinese delicacies at Guduguda, an alfresco cinema with Oscar-worthy beach views will be screening the latest hits under the stars.
  • Day 4: Sunrise yoga kicks off another day in paradise. Kids can get messy making dumplings while adults turn fresh coconuts into tropical cocktails. After dark, BBQ Shak will host a casual dinner with live music followed by Boduberu Bash – a traditional Maldivian drum dance around the bonfire on the beach.
  • Day 5: Pint-sized and adult winners of the sandcastle competition will be toasted at The Standard pool party. Meanwhile, wellness-minded guests can decamp to Baby Island for private sunset yoga (USD 55 per person). For dinner, Kula will take everyone’s taste buds on a world tour, and numbers will get wild at Todis Bar during an evening session of Not Your Standard Bingo.
  • Day 6: Energized by aqua Zumba, guests can continue the excitement at The Standard Pool Party led by a resident DJ. Additionally, there are rice paper roll masterclasses, colorful mud scrubs, a fusion of American, Mexican and Japanese dishes at Kula, and a mesmerizing LED show at Todis Beach.
  • Day 7: It’s Monday, but thanks to a Bachata Bash, everyone will be dancing like it’s Friday. Alternatively, holidaymakers can rebalance with sound meditation at The Spa, watch their offspring race in canoes, and end the day with grilled delights at Kula, followed by groovy tunes at Beru Bar.
