Four Seasons Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru
Wonderfully relaxed resort with an exemplary spa



For a rejuvenating experience, the spa at Four Seasons Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru is worth the trip alone. Spread over 1.2 hectares, the spa offers 7, 14 and 21-day immersive Ayurvedic progammes as well as acupuncture, pampering treatments and courses from visiting wellness experts. The rest of the resort, a former coconut plantation, is just as well thought out with 103 big villas well-spaced out along the shore or over the water, a Marine Discovery Centre, great restaurants and a whole host of water-based activities to enjoy.
