COMO Maldives is launching new 2023 COMO Journeys, a collection of one-off retreats and events, enabling guests to learn a new skill or deepen an existing practice under the watchful eye of leading professionals and experts in their field.

Included in the mix of COMO Maldives experiences are underwater photography classes, a kitesurfing residency with a two-time world champion, and a wellness resident to help guide guests on their journey for better health.

The Maldives is a nation of islands in the Indian Ocean, which spans across the equator, southwest of Sri Lanka and India. The country is comprised of 1,192 islands that stretch along a length of 871 kilometres.

While the country covers an area of approximately 90,000 square kilometres, only 298 square kilometres of that is dry land. The islands are grouped into a double chain of 26 atolls.

COMO Maalifushi is the first and only resort to open on the unspoilt Thaa Atoll, in the archipelago’s southern reaches, while COMO Cocoa Island, known locally as Makunufushi, is located among South Malé’s coral atolls.

About

COMO Maalifushi features all the understated luxuries of a COMO private island resort, and is the ultimate away-from-it-all destination for families, couples, surfers and divers.

Here, guests can relax at its COMO Shambhala Retreat for holistic wellness and world-class overwater yoga facilities, and they have definitive access to the Maldives’ vibrant marine life. There are some excellent breaks nearby as well as a string of uninhabited private islands, where there are seasonal hammerhead and manta ray sightings.

At COMO Cocoa Island, stay in a breezy overwater villa. The accommodation is designed in honour of traditional Maldivian ‘dhoni’ fishing boats, offering the sensation of floating over the crystal-clear ocean.

Guests can slip into the water from their private sun deck and come face-to-face with some of the world’s most fascinating marine life and enjoy in-room dining from Ufaa, the island’s signature restaurant, serving modern international cuisine with an emphasis on freshly caught seafood and local produce.
