Amilla Maldives Lives up to Reputation as ‘Island of Surprises' this Valentine's Day

Amilla Maldives valentine's day
Amilla Maldives has lined up three consecutive nights of entertainment and celebrations beginning on 12th February for Valentine's Day.

Music truly is the food of love at Amilla Maldives this Valentine’s Day. The Baa Atoll resort has lined up three consecutive nights of entertainment and celebrations, beginning on 12th February and building up to the big night on 14th February 2021. Featuring live performances, dancing, sumptuous food and private starlit experiences, every night brings new surprises.

Building up to Valentine’s Day, couples at Amilla Maldives can plant a tree in the Mystique Garden to celebrate their relationship, let their creative passions flow at a ‘sip and paint guided painting session with wine, or watch a romantic movie at the open-air Secret Cinema on either the 12th or 13th.

Amilla’s new Executive Chef, Andrew Smith, has also designed a very special new sensory experience. Some like it hot, some like it melted, some like it fruity and some – well, some just like it! The Amilla Chocolate Journey – taking place in Amilla’s dedicated Chocolate Room – guides couples on an exploration of the island’s exquisite handmade chocolates.

These delectable concoctions are matched with champagne, wine and port to complement their flavour and tantalise the tastebuds. A perfect afternoon delight to get guests in the mood for a romantic dinner. As a symbol of love and passion, it seems perfect timing to launch the new chocolate experience for Valentine’s Day, but it will be an ongoing part of the resort’s colourful happenings and activities.

‘Valentine’s Day Date Night’ on the 14th begins with a cocktail party on the beach with champagne, bespoke cocktails and canapes, as the sun sets over the glittering ocean at Amilla Maldives. Guests’ love messages to each-other will be written in the sand surrounding ‘’them. Dancers and a traditional Maldivian Bodu Beru’ (‘big drum’) band will provide entrancing performances.

Then each couple departs for a private ‘Dine by Design’ dinner. The private dining experiences feature a delectable three-course set menu. A cushion-filled nook hollowed out on the beach, surrounded by lanterns. A candlelit private table in the main pool’s sunken island. A special meal at Amilla’s over-water signature restaurant or rustic Italian brasserie. These are just four of a total of six romantic locations to choose from.

Alternatively, one couple can seize the opportunity to pull out all the stops for Amilla Maldives’ Premium Valentine’s Day Package on the 14th.

Raise a Glass: Champagne Guy Charbaut Celebrates Five Years of Collaboration with THE OZEN COLLECTION

Champagne Guy Charbaut partners with THE OZEN COLLECTION, offering exclusive events and rare vintages at Maldives’ luxury resorts.

A luxurious Champagne and fine dining experience returns to the Maldives as Champagne Guy Charbaut and THE OZEN COLLECTION celebrate five years of their signature collaboration. From 20 to 26 October 2025, guests at OZEN LIFE MAADHOO and OZEN RESERVE BOLIFUSHI will enjoy a week of exclusive events. These experiences celebrate rare vintages, gourmet cuisine, and island elegance. The collaboration brings together the rich heritage of Champagne Guy Charbaut. A family-run house from Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, France with the curated luxury of THE OZEN COLLECTION.

What Makes This Partnership So Special?

Founded in 1936, Champagne Guy Charbaut has spent nearly a century perfecting its craft. The winery creates elegant cuvées shaped by the limestone terroir of the French countryside. Meanwhile, THE OZEN COLLECTION delivers immersive hospitality in some of the world’s most stunning settings. When you bring these two together, you get something pretty special.

That’s exactly what happened here. This partnership blends Champagne, culinary artistry, and island luxury into a one-of-a-kind annual tradition.

Xavier Charbaut puts it perfectly:
“We have discovered something extraordinary with THE OZEN COLLECTION. What began as a meeting of philosophies—our devotion to terroir, their dedication to moments—has blossomed into a tradition that reinvents itself each year. These shores have become a second home for our champagnes. The salt-kissed air seems to amplify their vibrancy. As we raise our glasses to five years of shared excellence, we see not an endpoint, but a horizon brimming with possibilities.”

And that’s not all. Looking ahead, he adds:
The next chapter will unveil even more daring pairings. More intimate encounters with our rarest vintages. And perhaps a few surprises we’re still carefully guarding in our cellars.”

Where and When: Event Highlights at Both Resorts

OZEN LIFE MAADHOO: 20–22 October 2025

First up, Maadhoo kicks off the celebration with three days of indulgence:

20 October – Underwater Dining at M6m
To start things off, guests will enjoy lunch and dinner in the iconic underwater restaurant. Each course comes paired with exclusive Champagnes chosen for the occasion.

21 October – Champagne & Spice Dinner at TRADITION INDOCEYLON
The celebration continues with a bold and flavour-packed Franco-Indian dinner. Here, vibrant spices meet refined bubbles in a pairing that’s full of surprises.

22 October – Champagne Brunch Royale at THE PALMS
To wrap up the Maadhoo leg in style, guests can unwind at a breezy Champagne brunch. The pours and the vibes are equally generous.

OZEN RESERVE BOLIFUSHI: 24–26 October 2025

Next, it’s Bolifushi’s turn to pop the cork:

24 October – World Champagne Day at ORIGINƎ
What better way to celebrate World Champagne Day? This over-water dining experience pairs ocean-inspired dishes with some of the house’s finest vintages.

25 October – Champagne & Spice at SAFFRON
Back by popular demand, this flavour-packed dinner returns with a fresh round of Indian warmth and French finesse. If you missed it at Maadhoo, now’s your chance.

26 October – Sunset Pool Party at OZAR
Finally, the week winds down with a golden-hour pool party. Chilled Champagne, music, and sunset views take centre stage. It’s the kind of farewell you won’t forget anytime soon.

A Shared Commitment to Craft and Experience

Of course, the collaboration doesn’t stop when the week ends. Champagne Guy Charbaut’s bottles remain available across both resorts throughout the year.

Whether you’re sipping the Cuvée de Réserve ‘Old Vines’ Brut or the vibrant Rosé 1er Cru Brut, each bottle offers a new reason to celebrate.

Nicolas Laguette, Director of Wines at Atmosphere Core, sums it up well:
“The union between Champagne Guy Charbaut and THE OZEN COLLECTION represents the very essence of what modern luxury should be. A harmonious dialogue between heritage and innovation, where every detail is considered and every moment is elevated.”
