Milaidhoo Maldives presents The Gentlemen's Retreat A Bespoke Wellness Escape for Men available through November 2025

24 Oct 2025

In celebration of International Men’s Day on 19th November 2025, Milaidhoo Maldives is proud to unveil The Gentlemen's Retreat, a bespoke wellness escape exclusively designed for the discerning gentleman. Offered as both a transformative three-day retreat and a rejuvenating one-day experience throughout the month of November, the programs provide men with a rare opportunity for restoration and reconnection.

Milaidhoo is more than just a reinvented luxury island; it is a place where time slows down and mindful experiences are seamlessly woven into the natural rhythm of the island. Rooted in barefoot informality and intentional presence, Milaidhoo invites gentlemen to embark on a transformative journey, where true renewal takes place beyond mere disconnection.

“We understand that luxury is not just about indulgence but about meaningful, transformative experiences,” says Paul van Frank, General Manager at Milaidhoo Maldives. “This retreat is designed to honor the growing global conversation surrounding men’s mental health and well-being, offering an immersive escape for those seeking a moment of calm and clarity.”
