Kurumba Maldives’ Veli Spa revamps services with new spa treatments
Kurumba Maldives has revealed the new Veli Spa menu, with a new design and new treatments.
In addition to the existing treatments – Maldivian, global and outdoor massages, scrubs & wraps, manicures & pedicures, facials and full body treatments, as well as Yoga and Wellness packages – the Veli Spa menu has expanded with the below treatments:
Lumbo Theyo Dhemun : this full body herb-infused oil massage has been developed to reduce stiff, tense muscles and is followed by a body wrap. The oils used to perform this treatment are part of a secret recipe developed by Maldivian healers alongside the resort’s Spa Manager Mrs. Aishath Zulfishan.
Hilot nd Malay Fusion Massage : this treatment focuses on ancient methods passed down through generations of Phillippino and Malay cultures, the techniques of which help improve the emotional, physical and spiritual well-being of guests. Warmed coconut or herbal oil are placed over the body with banana leaves to reduce tension, imbalances and blockages in the body.
Veli Spa’s concept evolves around Maldivian treatments which are very successful, and in order to strengthen its ties to the Asian traditions, Veli Spa wishes to embrace these exciting new therapies in addition to existing offerings.

ELE|NA marks World Sleep Day with SleepSync wellness ritual
In recognition of World Sleep Day, ELE|NA highlights SleepSync, one of its Six Pillars of Vitality dedicated to restoration and circadian rhythm alignment, through the SleepSync Ritual, a deeply calming spa experience designed to guide guests toward profound, uninterrupted sleep. The ritual is implemented across all ELE|NA locations in both the Maldives and India, ensuring guests can reconnect with restorative sleep wherever they experience the brand.
In today’s always-connected world, restful sleep has become increasingly elusive. Within this ritual, the body is gently led from stimulation into stillness, releasing the tensions of the day, calming the nervous system and preparing the mind and body for restorative rest.
ELE|NA believes that sleep is not simply the absence of wakefulness, but an essential pillar of holistic wellbeing – where restoration, emotional balance and cellular renewal take place.

Supporting the Body’s Natural Sleep Rhythm
Sleep begins long before the moment the head meets the pillow. It is a gradual transition where the body releases the day and prepares for stillness.

Within ELE|NA’s SleepSync Rituals, this transition is approached with intention and calm. As evening settles, the body begins its quiet descent into rest with the following:
- Reduce blue light exposure before sleep
- Dim lighting to signal the body’s nighttime rhythm
- Create calm through mindful transitions away from daily activity
- Release thoughts through journaling
- Hydrate and support the body’s nighttime recovery
These small rituals help guide the body from stimulation to restoration.

Reclaiming the Night
World Sleep Day serves as an important reminder that quality sleep is not a luxury, but a foundation of health and longevity. When supported with mindful rituals and intentional slowing down, the night becomes a space for true renewal.
Through SleepSync Rituals, ELE|NA continues its commitment to nurturing holistic wellbeing, guiding individuals back to the natural rhythms that allow the body to rest, restore and awaken with clarity and vitality.
