A captivating new seasonal experience awaits travelers this summer as The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands launches The Summer Collective: Masters, Explorers, & Extraordinary Moments. This specially curated three-month program offers guests a vibrant blend of adventure, learning, and rejuvenation—set against the backdrop of one of the world’s most breathtaking island destinations.
Running from June to August, the initiative aligns with the resort’s guiding pillars of Nature, Exploration, Responsibility, and Culture. With a carefully designed lineup of internationally renowned experts and immersive activities, The Summer Collective aims to foster creativity, mindfulness, and meaningful family engagement across all age groups.
Exclusive Experiences with Global Experts
In June, professional big-wave surfer Nic Von Rupp will lead guests through adrenaline-filled surfing sessions from June 17th to 20th. Tailored for different skill levels, the program includes four structured lessons—two for beginners and two for intermediate and advanced surfers—offering guests the rare chance to ride the Maldives’ crystal-clear waves under expert guidance.
July shifts the focus inward with a two-week wellness immersion guided by celebrated sound healer Susy Markoe Schieffelin from July 10th to 24th. Daily yoga, sound baths, and energy-balancing sessions will be complemented by a chakra-inspired culinary experience. The program also includes special children’s sessions that emphasize emotional well-being and self-expression, such as Throat Chakra & Kids’ Sound Healing and Expression & Authenticity workshops.
In August, families can look forward to a series of inspiring hands-on workshops led by Sergei Urban, widely known as TheDadLab. From August 14th to 16th, children and parents will explore engaging themes such as nature, sustainability, engineering, and Maldivian culture. One of these workshops will be incorporated into the resort’s programming for the following six months, giving future guests continued access to interactive education.
Ritz Kids and Family-Centered Offerings
Throughout the summer, the resort’s signature Ritz Kids program will keep young minds engaged with playful and educational activities. The program seamlessly integrates themes of environmental responsibility, science, and creativity—ensuring an enriching experience for children while adults indulge in the resort’s luxurious wellness offerings.
To elevate the family travel experience further, Marriott Bonvoy is inviting families to enjoy exclusive summer packages across eight private island resorts in the Maldives, including The Ritz-Carlton Maldives. These packages feature complimentary full-board upgrades, free stays and dining for children, and a curated selection of family-friendly activities.
A Taste of Innovation: Award-Winning Culinary Collaboration
Adding a distinctive gastronomic flair to the season, the resort’s Chef Panagiotis Polychronis will introduce a zero-waste concept menu, further reinforcing the resort’s commitment to sustainability and creativity.
From thrilling surf sessions and holistic wellness retreats to family workshops and gourmet innovations, The Summer Collective at The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands delivers a rich and transformative escape for travelers of all ages. This exclusive program offers an inspiring invitation to explore the essence of island life while reconnecting with self, family, and nature in the heart of the Indian Ocean.
