Before you book

What's the spa like?

The Ritz-Carlton Spa is a ring-shaped sanctuary built over the lagoon, with nine treatment rooms — including a spa suite with its own relaxation lounge — arranged along the cardinal directions, plus a salon and boutique. Treatments use an organic Bamford body and skincare collection, with signatures including the 150-minute Bamford Signature Journey, a Bamboo Massage and the Maldivian Signature Rejuvenation. The Ritz-Carlton Gym and yoga studio operate 24 hours a day alongside it.
