A 40-minute seaplane journey from the Male’ International Airport, the island hosts a total of 68 exquisitely designed beach and overwater villas. Each luxurious villa comes with a private pool and a variety of highly personalized amenities. From a minibar, games to aid in your wellbeing and musical instruments for meditation. Furthermore, every villa has its own butler, or ‘Jadugar’, which translates to ‘magician’.

A plethora of wellness facilities presents guests with the opportunity to heal, reflect and grow. These facilities range from holistic and alternative, to diagnostic and scientific. Additionally, fitness regimes and diets can be curated for each individual guest by professional nutritionists as part of the signature immersion programmes.

At JOALI Being, the key philosophy is combining the old and the new to replenish the mind, skin, microbiome and energy. There are 39 elegant elevated treatment rooms dotted along the island. They are designed to harness the healing energies of the natural surroundings to create a completely relaxed environment.

Dining at JOALI Being is an unparalleled culinary journey. The expansive dining space boasts three main kitchens – Plantae, Su and B’Well. They offer a selection of earth-to-table and ocean-to-table meals prepped to perfection with the freshest of ingredients. Moreover, meals served range from vegetarian and vegan to pescatarian. The resort assures that ingredients are sourced from sustainable local farms.

However, one of the more intriguing features is the SAI tea lounge, where guests can sample an impressive range of teas, participate in tea ceremonies, and embark on a spectacular and informative journey with the resort’s tea sommelier.

Aqua Fitness Expert

From June 14 to 18, 2025, the luxury resort in the Maldives, Kuda Villingili will host an exclusive wellness program celebrating Global Wellness Day, inviting guests to reconnect with themselves, nature, and community through the transformative power of water. Rajni Maker, a trailblazer in India’s aqua fitness scene known for her innovative and inclusive water-based workouts, will lead the five-day event.

Aqua fitness expert Rajni Maker brings over 16 years of experience in Pilates, mindful movement, and water-based training to the Maldives, where she will lead guests through a fun and energizing mix of low-impact exercises suited for all fitness levels. Her signature programs, including Aqua Tabata, Kickboxing, Circuits, Pilates, Aerobics, and Zumba, blend science with flow to deliver joyful, joint-friendly workouts that boost overall vitality. Recognized by NATCOM and ATNI for her contributions to the field, Rajni also holds an Aqua Specialisation from the Federation of International Sports Aerobics and Fitness in Singapore.

She shared her excitement about the upcoming program

“I am thrilled to bring my expertise to Kuda Villingili. The resort’s serene setting and expansive aquatic spaces offer the ideal canvas for meaningful, water-based wellness experiences. My goal is to help every participant reconnect with their body and mind, while also leaving them with simple, sustainable practices they can continue at home—whether they are just beginning their wellness journey or are seasoned fitness enthusiasts.”

Wellness Experiences Set in Paradise

Kuda Villingili Resort already welcomes wellness lovers with a variety of experiences that promote balance, vitality, and inner peace. Its private island spa features eight treatment villas specializing in holistic therapies with organic, island-inspired ingredients. On top of that, guests who prefer active pursuits will find the Maldives’ largest pool, a cutting-edge gym overlooking the ocean, and a jungle yoga pavilion perfectly positioned for sunrise and sunset practice.

Now, with Global Wellness Day approaching, the resort has pulled together an experience that goes beyond the usual. Throughout the five days, guests can enjoy a thoughtfully curated lineup of activities designed to nourish both body and soul:

  • Start with a guided nature walk through the island’s lush landscape, ending with a mindful beachside body scrub using traditional Maldivian ingredients.
  • Then, wake up your core with sunrise Pilates sessions using the Magic Circle, focusing on strength and flexibility.
  • After that, join Rajni for high-intensity aqua kickboxing classes—a joint-friendly but seriously energizing cardio workout.
  • Families can also get moving together during fun and active beach HIIT sessions.
  • For something playful, join a friendly padel tennis match and compete for wellness-themed prizes.
  • Later, tap into your creative side with a nature-inspired painting session.
  • And finally, take time for yourself with a one-on-one wellness consultation with one of the resort’s expert practitioners.

As the schedule flows from movement to mindfulness, the entire program ties beautifully into this year’s Global Wellness Day theme, #ReconnectMagenta. It’s all about slowing down, recharging, and reconnecting, whether that means bonding with loved ones, finding inner calm, or just being present in nature.
