Solo Serenity: How InterContinental Maldives is Reimagining the Solo Luxury Travel Experience

By Web Desk / January 7, 2026

Dubai, UAE: InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort has officially announced the launch of its Solo Serenity collection starting from USD 1,290++ per night. This thoughtfully curated suite of luxury experiences is designed to celebrate the rising global trend of independent travel, offering rituals traditionally reserved for duos and reimagining them as empowering, tailor-made moments for one.

Personalized Wellness and Stellar Souvenirs

The Solo Serenity journeys available in 3-,5-, and 7-day itineraries, begin with a personal wellness consultation at the award-winning AVI Spa. Under the guidance of leading practitioners, guests are eased into a week of self-indulgence, often starting with the resort’s newly debuted Maldivian Essence Treatment, a ritual rooted in local island traditions.

To ground the experience in personal reflection, the resort offers a range of Astrology-Themed Gifts. Guests can select keepsakes that align with their personal energy, including: Crystal-infused water bottles for mindful hydration; Zodiac stones and jewellery inspired by birthstones; Journaling tools provided for beachside reflection hours.

Culinary Rituals: A Date with Oneself

Culinary experiences within the collection are designed to be both intimate and indulgent. Guests can start their morning with a signature Floating Breakfast, served in the privacy of their villa’s pool with champagne and gourmet delicacies.

As the sun sets, the “Solo Date” concept continues with a Beach Dinner Date Night, where a private, chef-crafted meal is served under the stars. For a truly cinematic end to the evening, the resort can arrange a Personalised Outdoor Cinema Night, transforming the shoreline into a private theatre complete with lanterns and tailored film selections.

Adventure and Intentional Movement

The resort empowers solo travellers to explore the vibrant Maldivian ecosystem at their own pace. Adventure highlights include: Manta Ray Encounters: Join the on-site Manta Trust team to swim alongside these gentle giants; Coral Diving: Explore the house reef during a “Day Date” with the ocean’s biodiversity; Sunset Dolphin Cruises: Witness friendly pods in the Arabian Sea, accompanied by a solo champagne sabering experience.

For those seeking mindfulness, sunrise yoga sessions are followed by a dedicated self-discovery hour on the sand. Guests are provided with a beach blanket, coffee, and breakfast, creating a quiet space for journaling and morning meditation.

Cultural Connection

Beyond relaxation, the collection offers hands-on engagement with local heritage. A Private Cooking Class allows guests to master Maldivian culinary arts, such as traditional curries, guided by the resort’s leading chefs. This immersive approach ensures that solo travellers leave with both a sense of restoration and a deeper connection to the destination.
