The multi-award-winning Emerald Maldives Resort & Spa
welcomes kids to relax, learn and find their Zen while vacationing. Bring children along to experience something more while enjoying the Indian Ocean luxury resort.
Kids enjoy pampering just as much as you. Emerald Maldives Resort & Spa curated a spa menu for kids of all ages to enjoy. Moisturize their delicate skin with the sun-kissed massage or a gentle full-body massage with essential oils. For little ones with a sweet tooth, order the chocolate clay body wrap.
Expose kids to the benefits of meditation and yoga. Offered once a week, kids can join the Dolphin Kids’ Club in yoga, surrounded by lush gardens. Each session includes games, fun names for yoga poses and animal sounds. To practice as a family, visitors can book a private yoga session that can be led privately in their Family Villa.
It is never too early to start teaching children to cook. The resort’s Italian heritage shines through in the cooking class for kids led by Chef Aldo. In the session, families learn to make pizza from scratch, Spaghetti al Pomodoro and real Italian gelato using tropical ingredients like coconut and papaya that are sourced locally. The two-hour classes can be booked upon request for up to two adults and four children per session.
