With an extensive array of activities for teens, bespoke retreats for solo travellers, and opportunities for families to bond, this tropical paradise offers the ultimate winter escape.

Silent Retreat:
For solo travellers or guests looking for a quieter retreat this festive season, InterContinental Maldives offers Silent Retreat options that allow for introspection and wellness in a truly serene setting. These retreats provide guests with minimal interactions, perfect for those who wish to disconnect and recharge during this festive season.
Hermit Package: The Hermit Days Silent Immersion Package begins with a pre-arrival questionnaire, allowing guests to tailor their experience based on preferences for dining, contact levels, and wellness needs. Upon arrival, guests find their villa prepared with curated amenities—from snorkelling gear to a bespoke minibar. Throughout the stay, guests communicate primarily through the e-Curator, choosing complete solitude or selective interactions with the Island Curator at preferred times. This unique experience invites guests to immerse themselves in tranquillity, reconnect with nature, and savour luxurious solitude on their own terms.
Digital Detox: For those seeking a break from digital distractions, the Digital Detox Days immersion begins with guests surrendering their devices on arrival, welcoming a true tech-free sanctuary. With options for designated communication points and message boxes, guests can choose when and how to connect with others. Led by wellness mentors, this experience includes guided yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices, providing a serene escape from the demands of modern life. AVI Spa complements this journey with holistic therapies, including sound healing, bodywork, and relaxation massages allowing guests to leave feeling refreshed, rebalanced, and truly connected with their inner selves.
