The Art of Graceful Change: A Transformative Menopause Retreat at OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi

In the heart of the Indian Ocean, where turquoise waters kiss powder-white sands, OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi is preparing to host a unique retreat designed to honour a powerful life transition—menopause. From June 5 to 9, 2025, the soulful Maldives resort will unveil The Art of Graceful Change, a four-night wellness retreat co-created by ELE|NA Spa for women embracing midlife with authenticity, strength, and grace.

This thoughtfully curated experience is rooted in ELE|NA’s ‘Wellness Your Way™’ philosophy, which recognises that every woman’s journey through menopause is deeply personal. The retreat combines expert-led sessions on hormonal health, nutrition, healing therapies, conscious movement, and mindful storytelling, creating a safe space for reflection, reconnection, and empowerment.

As Heidi Grimwood, Vice President of ELE|NA Spa, shares:

“Menopause is a profound transition. As I navigate my own perimenopausal journey, I felt a deep calling to create a compassionate, judgment-free sanctuary—one where women can explore this chapter authentically, equipped with knowledge, empowered with tools, and uplifted by community.”

Just 15 minutes from Malé International Airport, the serene setting of Ailafushi offers the ideal backdrop for such transformation. With its nature-inspired design, tranquil colours, and open views of the sea, every corner of the resort is infused with calm and clarity. Participants will immerse in bespoke spa rituals, guided breathwork under Maldivian skies, and nourishing meals, all attuned to support hormonal balance and holistic well-being.

This retreat is more than a getaway—it’s a reclaiming. It is for the woman who has spent a lifetime giving, and is now ready to pause, receive, soften, and rise into her next phase of life with clarity and compassion.

For women ready to honour their evolution, The Art of Graceful Change offers a sacred space where self-love, healing, and community come together on a sun-kissed island of soulful simplicity.


Four Seasons Maldives Marks 15 Years of Turtle Rescue and 9,000 Coral Frames

Four Seasons Maldives Marks 15 Years of Turtle Rescue and 9,000 Coral Frames

Four Seasons Resorts Maldives at Kuda Huraa and Landaa Giraavaru is celebrating a major environmental milestone—15 years of the Maldivian Sea Turtle Conservation Programme (MSTCP) and the planting of the 9,000th coral frame in partnership with Reefscapers. These achievements reflect a continued dedication to marine preservation through science, care, and education.

The journey began in 2010 when the country’s first Turtle Rehabilitation Centre was established at Landaa Giraavaru. Since then, more than 500 injured turtles have been rescued and treated, with over 280 successfully returned to the wild. Around the same time, a coral regeneration partnership with coastal oceanographer Thomas Le Berre led to a coral propagation method that has since become a global model. Today, it supports one of the Indian Ocean’s largest artificial reef systems, now spanning over 3 acres.

The MSTCP has introduced many innovations over the years, including an ocean enclosure, on-site veterinarians, and modern medical tools like underwater ultrasound scanners and laser therapy devices. At the same time, coral frames have helped revive reef habitats and attract vibrant marine life such as eagle rays, reef sharks, and turtles.

One of the programme’s most touching initiatives is the Flying Turtles project, which finds permanent homes in international aquariums for turtles unable to survive in the wild. A notable example is Trooper, a turtle rescued in 2018 and later fitted with prosthetic flippers after severe injuries. Trooper has become a symbol of resilience and marine rehabilitation success.

The impact goes beyond the ocean. Through the Junior Marine Savers programme at Kuda Huraa, young guests learn hands-on conservation skills, while outreach efforts connect with schools, NGOs, and scientists to build broader community engagement.

“These 15 years have been a journey of learning, innovation, and hope,” said Armando Kraenzlin, Regional Vice President and General Manager. “From rehabilitating turtles to planting our 9000th coral frame, we remain committed to protecting marine life and inspiring global awareness for ocean conservation.”

With turtle care, coral restoration, and community-driven conservation at its core, Four Seasons Resorts Maldives continues to inspire a deeper connection with the ocean and a legacy of marine stewardship.
