Healthy Aging, The Pursuit of Graceful Living
With the global population aging, many guests are taking proactive approaches to aging gracefully. Guests at Vakkaru are introduced to mindfulness practices including early morning meditation sessions on the beach and personalized wellness programs to promote longevity and vitality. Ayurveda-inspired solutions and lifestyle advice help guests make informed choices to help prevent illness while gaining inner balance.
Combat Loneliness, Wellness as a Social Connection
Remote workers are often alone and don’t realize social interactions contribute to their overall health and wellbeing. Wellness offerings at Vakkaru help encourage networking and social ties through group yoga classes, interactive workshops and group dining options. These activities provide an inviting environment for solo travelers and group travelers alike to make new connections.

Offerings at Vakkaru Maldives provide a holistic approach catering to the needs of all guests and moving beyond the traditional views of wellness.
