Think the Maldives is only for honeymooners and couples? Think again! Solo adventurers, brace yourselves for a journey of a lifetime in this tropical paradise. From holistic healing to thrilling water sports, here’s how to make the most of your solo escapade to this tropical paradise.
Experience Holistic Healing: ‘Me-time’, Island Style
Sometimes, a vacation is all about treating yourself. Private island resorts in Maldives such as OBLU NATURE Helengeli by SENTIDO offer the perfect opportunity to hit the reset button and indulge in some well-deserved pampering. At a resort spa, you can surrender to a traditional Maldivian sand bundle massage, follow it up with a refreshing coconut body scrub to leave your skin feeling silky smooth, and top it all off with a bespoke natural facial. Feeling like a new ‘you’ already? Complement your spa treatments with a rejuvenating yoga session by the beach to a soothing soundtrack of the ocean!
Embark on Exciting Adventures: Channel Your Inner Explorer
This destination is not just about picture-perfect beaches, although those are pretty spectacular too! It’s also a land of endless possibilities for the curious adventurer who can choose from rewarding excursions in Maldives. Set sail on a dolphin-watching voyage and witness these playful creatures frolicking in their natural habitat. Try your hand at traditional sunset fishing or test your skills with some big game fishing. You can also charter your own boat for a private cruise or head off to one of the local islands and immerse yourself in the vibrant local way of life.
Try Thrilling Water Sports: An Ocean Playground Awaits
The Maldives is practically synonymous with water, so it would be a shame not to try the array of water sports on offer. Stay at a resort that offers complimentary non-motorised activities like snorkelling, stand-up paddleboard and kayaking which are all great solo activities. Feeling the need for speed? Head off on a jet ski ride or try your hand at flyboarding, soaring above the water like a superhero. If you have ever dreamt of fully exploring the underwater world, many resorts offer SSI and PADI diving courses, allowing you to obtain your certification and embark on incredible escapades.
Discover a Foodie Paradise: A Culinary Journey for One
Staying at a private resort in Maldives with multiple dining venues allows you to embark on a solo culinary journey of discovery. From freshly grilled seafood to authentic local dishes bursting with flavour, you will never be short of options. International cuisine, cool cocktails, and fine wines round out the picture, ensuring every meal is an experience to remember. Ideally, choose an all-inclusive plan with diverse dining options and unlimited beverages, so you can focus on savouring an array of foodie delights without worrying about the bill!
