Five-star Kagi Maldives Spa Island is set to launch in the Maldives’ North Male Atoll in September 2020 ...
Kagi Maldives Spa Island is one of the most exciting and unique Maldivian islands to open its ‘doors’ in recent years. And it’s not just because of its striking-yet-warm toned architecture or its boutique vibe: the wellbeing offerings here are really something to write home about. This isn’t your normal resort with a spa; the Baani Spa is an immersive and soothing retreat where days are full of self-care, good-for-you but-mouth-watering meals and restorative yoga sessions. We love the setting of the spherical spa which is perched out above the lagoon, its yoga room where poses are complemented with sound therapy, and the clean-eating restaurant Spa Corner; Baani is set to become one of the Maldives’ most coveted wellness havens.
There are just 50 villas at Kagi Maldives, 40 that are set out over the lagoon. The style is stylish and calming with natural and cool white tones, rustic wall décor and soft furnishings that you’ll just want to sink into; think along the lines of contemporary beach chic and you’ll have Kagi’s design in mind. Kagi has partnered with esteemed architect Yuji Yamazaki on the design of the resort. At the heart of the island sits Kagi’s 1500-square-meter spa and wellness hub, complete with an open-air, teardrop-shaped sky roof at its centre. Kagi also houses a state-of-the-art gym, two restaurants, three bars, a dive centre and a house reef. Guests can choose from three room types, a Beach Pool Villa, a Lagoon Pool Villa or an Ocean Pool Villa, all of which will be distinguished by their unique locations and will house a private pool, a sun deck and an expansive indoor-outdoor bathroom.
The resort’s fusion cuisine will take inspiration from the geographical ‘ring of fire’ that surrounds the Maldives, from the highly spiced and fragranced cuisine of East Asia to the bold, fiery flavours of South America and Oceania.
Kagi’s Baani Spa will offer a personalized, outcome-focused wellness programme that will take guests on a journey to Release, Restore and Regain. Alternative therapies including crystal and sound healing, lifestyle and health coaching and nutrition lessons will complement a comprehensive range of beauty and massage treatments. The more adventurous will also have a chance to sample a variety of watersports including day-and-night snorkelling, scuba diving, catamaran and sailing boat trips, and much more.
Nightly rates for travel in November 2020 at Kagi Maldives Spa Island start from $708 (£557) per night in a Lagoon Pool Villa on a Bed and Breakfast basis. Rates include 12% GST. For more information visit https://www.kagimaldives.com
