An elegant island escape filled with curated culinary experiences, meaningful family moments, and serene wellness rituals




This Easter, Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi invites guests to embrace the spirit of renewal in a setting where luxury meets tranquility. Nestled across three lush islands in the heart of the Indian Ocean, the resort presents a week of curated experiences that celebrate joy, connection, and the simple pleasure of being together.


Easter at Ithaafushi is not merely a holiday—it is a season of shared moments and elegant discoveries. Guests are welcomed into a world where each day unfolds with intention: vibrant culinary journeys, imaginative children’s festivities, serene spa rituals, and evenings that shimmer with celebration beneath the stars.


The festivities begin with a casual yet elevated Beach BBQ by Michelin-starred Chef Dave Pynt, who brings the tradition of the Easter roast to life over open flames. The evening blends exceptional flavors with beachfront charm, set to the rhythm of a DJ and fire show. Later in the week, the resort’s culinary landscape is further enlivened by a series of themed evenings—from the rustic charm of Italian Night by the lagoon pool, to the high-energy Yashoku Night Feast at Zuma, where live sushi stations and free-flow bubbles create a dazzling atmosphere of indulgence.


At the heart of the celebration is the Easter Gala Dinner at Nava Beach, where families and couples gather beneath the Maldivian sky for a grand finale of live entertainment and exquisite cuisine. From gourmet live stations to bubble shows and violin duets, every detail is crafted to awaken the senses and spark joy.


For those seeking intimacy and seclusion, Waldorf Astoria’s Private Destination Dining offers tailored Easter menus in breathtaking settings—from candlelit beachside tables to hidden corners of the island, where service is as discreet as it is attentive.





Families are invited to make memories together across the island. At the Stars Club, younger guests enjoy a wonderland of activities—from bunny t-shirt painting and cookie decorating to a lively Easter Hunt that takes them across the gardens and beaches in search of surprises. Club Nova offers older children and teens a mix of creative expression, sports, and social play, including beach tournaments, painting workshops, and movie nights under the stars.


While children are engaged, parents may retreat to the resort’s award-winning Waldorf Astoria Spa, where a series of Easter-inspired treatments offer renewal for mind and body. The Eternal Glow by Thalion, a luxurious marine facial for couples, delivers radiance and rejuvenation, while Easter Bliss invites parents and children to unwind together with chocolate-infused massages and playful wraps. For wellness seekers, aerial yoga and reformer pilates sessions offer mindful movement surrounded by natural beauty.


From sunrise to starlight, Easter at Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi is a celebration of life’s finest moments. Whether through a shared meal, a peaceful ritual, or the laughter of children by the sea, guests are invited to rediscover the joy of being present—with those they love, in a place like no other.
