The ultimate romantic retreat for newlyweds launches at JW Marriott Maldives Resort & Spa

JW Marriott Resort & Spa has launched the Romantic Retreat package for couples wanting to experience a magical honeymoon in the breathtaking Maldives

Located on the private island of Vagaru nestled within the serene Shaviyani Atoll and surrounded by azure waters this exclusive resort offers an idyllic setting for couples seeking an unforgettable romantic getaway. As part of the new Romantic Retreat offering guests will be treated to a personal butler (Thakuru), breakfast in their pool, dining on the beach at sunset and bespoke couple’s spa treatments.

Couples can experience culinary journeys unlike any other at JW Marriott Maldives Resort & Spa, with a range of dining options offering exquisite flavours. From private dinners on the beach under the stars to exclusive wine-pairing dinners, every meal is a celebration of love and togetherness.
A highlight of every stay is the romantic Malafaaiy dinner on the beach, immersing couples in a romantic atmosphere, accompanied by the rhythmic sounds of local drummers and the Boduberu performance. This enchanting experience is the epitome of romance, combining the soothing sound of waves with cultural melodies.

Destination dining at RIHA is unforgettably romantic. Here, the chef crafts a private eight-course menu upon the couple’s arrival. This culinary journey takes guests from Kashmir to Madurai, Goa, Rajasthan and Bengal, offering a culinary experience that creates unforgettable memories. The fusion of flavours and regions in each course is nothing short of extraordinary.
Guests can discover authentic flavours of Thai cuisine at Kaashi where dishes are thoughtfully prepared by Thai Chef Nawarat Laksanayame. The restaurant’s menu features freshly harvested ingredients such as Thai basil and lemongrass, typically used in Thai cuisine, sourced from the resort’s own JW Garden. This treetop restaurant boasts a romantic panoramic backdrop of the Indian Ocean, making it a perfect spot for a memorable dining experience.

Wine connoisseurs will be delighted by the collection of more than 300 different types of wine at Aailaa, the resort's all-day dining restaurant.  The extensive wine list ensures that every guest can find the perfect pairing for their meal, enhancing the overall dining experience.
As part of the romantic retreat package, couples will receive a daily breakfast at Aailaa restaurant and also get to sample the famed and stunning luxury floating breakfast, which will served in their private villa pool. Guests can also enjoy a special honeymoon discount of 60% when dining at signature fine-dining overwater restaurant, Shio and Japanese Hashi.

Couples can enjoy moments of relaxation and bliss together with a special spa treatment at the stunning overwater Spa by JW.  The unique ‘The Power of Touch’ treatment promotes connection and relaxation with therapeutic touch.
