“OUTRIGGER is about creating space for guests to slow down and feel grounded in their surroundings,” said John Allanson, General Manager of OUTRIGGER Maldives Maafushivaru Resort, in a press statement. “Here in the Maldives, the natural rhythm of island life guides the experience, and our expanded wellness offerings allow guests to engage with that rhythm in a way that feels personal and intentional.”

Navasana Spa.

Located on a private island in the South Ari Atoll, the 81-villa property has positioned Navasana Spa as the centerpiece of its wellness offerings. The program integrates fitness, mindfulness and hands-on activities throughout the resort experience.

The fitness and yoga studio now features aerial yoga, sunrise yoga sessions, bungee fit, rebound training and TRX suspension workouts. Mindfulness programming includes chakra healing, sound healing and full-moon meditation sessions conducted in oceanfront settings. The studio is equipped with hammocks, mats and sound bowls to support both active and contemplative practices.

Dining options emphasize fresh tropical fruits and locally sourced ingredients, with menus designed to accommodate various dietary requirements and wellness objectives.

The Alchemy Bar represents a new interactive component of the wellness program. This dedicated space offers workshops in coconut oil cooking, herbal poultice-making, candle crafting and organic soap-making. Guests can purchase herbal teas, bath and sleep kits and aromatic candles to continue their wellness routines in the comfort of their own home.

OUTRIGGER Maldives Maafushivaru has launched two structured wellness programs, each available in 3-, 5- or 7-night durations.

The Holistic Fitness Package targets clients who prioritize physical activity and includes personalized fitness sessions, Pilates-based exercises and flexibility training, all customized to individual objectives.

The Healing Retreat Package begins with a wellness consultation and screening, then focuses on gentle practices such as daily yoga, therapeutic sound healing and treatments designed to promote emotional balance and relaxation.

The resort’s natural setting supports wellness activities, with access to a house reef, a turquoise lagoon and interior gardens. Additional experiences include PADI-certified diving, sunset cruises and reef exploration.
