Kurumba
Maldives Veli Spa has announced a new destination spa treatment for couples
called 'Spa Under The Stars'
As the first private island resort in the Maldives, Kurumba boasts beautiful gardens, palm-finged white sandy beaches and all the idyllic attributes of paradise. It now welcomes a new spa treatment to Veli Spa, perfect for those on a romantic getaway or relaxing honeymoon.
The treatment has been inspired by some key
elements of the Maldives, incorporating local products and natural resources.
A unique bathing ritual with a local Maldivian Sarong called a Feyli is used whilst
watching the sun set over the Indian Ocean. This is followed by a unique cowrie
shell massage using local hand pressed Coconut oil. The cowrie shell is
historic in the Maldives as prior to tourism, the main export earners were
fishing and the trade of cowrie shells. The
coconut oil is purchased from a local Island named Fuvahmulah, located in the Nyaviyani
Atoll and is made by both local men and women.
The treatment is completed with the modern
touches of champagne and chocolate dipped fruits, served to compliment the tranquil journey
whilst enjoying the stars on bean bags on the beach.
Sales and Marketing Manager Leah Haguisan
stated; “this new treatment highlights the ongoing commitment by Kurumba to
offer its guests an inspiring and a complete Maldivian experience. Our team is
always looking at ways to seek historic Maldivian traditions and use within our
experience. The concept of the resort provides our guests with a choice of
enriching experiences that allow a renewed appreciation of life”.
