Glamping in Paradise

Amilla Maldives Resort & Residences has created the archipelago’s ultimate glamping experience, complete with a private chef and plunge pool.

When we think of the Maldives, images of rustic bungalows perched over turquoise lagoons tend to spring to mind. However, one resort has turned that image on its head with the arrival of Amilla Glamping. Located at avant-garde Amilla Maldives Resort & Residences, the three romantic new bubble tents offer an experience specially designed for nature and wellness lovers. Each stylish, fully climate-controlled, and waterproof inflatable pod provides Amilla guests with a uniquely immersive nature experience and 360-degree views of the island’s tropical scenery.

Nestled amongst lush foliage, each Amilla Glamping refuge invites guests to ed down in a blissful bubble beneath the stars. Coconut, pandan, and breadfruit trees create a scene of fragrant seclusion, enveloping the Amilla Glamping bubbles in the heart of the resort’s verdant natural island and with each private pod boasting a well-appointed bathroom, outdoor and indoor showers, a plunge pool, a steam room, and a sauna, there’s little reason to leave.

Guests can personalize their experience by choosing from three indulgent Amilla Glamping options, crafted by the Amilla Islanders to provide an unparalleled sojourn in synergy with the unique Maldives island setting. Bubbles & Stars includes canapés and a bottle of champagne, followed by a BBQ dinner beneath the stars prepared by a private chef. The bespoke private experience concludes with a 30-minute foot massage that uses organic island-grown coconut oil and which manipulates reflexology pressure points to ensure every molecule of stress has melted away.

The Wellness Your Way option includes a private beach BBQ featuring dishes from Amilla’s ground-breaking new Wellness Your Way menu, which caters to a variety of dietary lifestyles including keto, vegan and lactose-free. Continuing with the healthy theme, this option also includes the choice of either a Body Pure Massage or a full-body Balinese Massage, to stimulate energy flow around the body, and bring a sense of wellbeing, calm and deep relaxation. The next morning, there is a Guided Sunrise Yoga session focusing on breathing techniques and meditation.
