Wellness at Anantara Veli Maldives

Ayurvedic Treatment

Afternoon · restorative

Ayurveda-rooted treatments — shirodhara, dosha-based facials — led by an on-site Ayurvedic specialist as a named modality distinct from a generic massage.

Coral Adoption & Restoration

Morning · all ages, restorative

Hands-on reef and marine conservation guests can join directly — adopting or planting coral frames, mangrove planting, and turtle-rescue visits with a hatchling release.

Dolphin Cruise

Evening · for two, all ages, restorative

A dhoni or speedboat trip, usually timed to sunset, built around spotting wild dolphins — the most widely offered named excursion in the Maldives.

IV Therapy, Diagnostics & Visiting-Practitioner Wellness

Afternoon · restorative

IV infusions, recovery tech and non-invasive health screening booked as a diagnostic or performance session, usually with a visiting specialist.

Manta Ray & Whale Shark Encounter

Morning · for two, all ages, restorative

A guided snorkel or speedboat trip to a seasonal manta ray or whale shark aggregation site, mainly Hanifaru Bay and South Ari Atoll, from resorts close enough to reach it.

Overwater / Underwater Couples' Spa Ritual

Afternoon · restorative, for two

A spa treatment staged somewhere exclusive and built for two — an overwater or underwater treatment room, a private night ritual, a reef-view suite.

Sunrise / Sunset Yoga & Meditation Classes

Morning · restorative, for two

Complimentary or bookable yoga and meditation at sunrise or sunset, beachfront and often led by the resort's own resident yogi.

Before you book

What does the wellness programme include?

Every villa at Anantara Veli can be converted into a wellness villa for the stay — aroma, light and music therapy, an earthing mat, a healthy minibar, and a programme built around a consultation with the resort's Wellness Guru, daily yoga or personal training, and a healthy cooking class. Balance Wellness by Anantara, the resort's spa, adds Ayurvedic treatments, a Shirodhara bed, a steam room and sauna, and a relaxation garden with hot and cold plunge pools.
