Set on a private island in the Maldives, Anantara Kihavah could very well sit back on its high temps and blue-water views. But that’s not their style.

The turquoise waters of the resort may be its calling card. Amazing service, a full-service spa and relaxing sleeps will be its legacy.

Solid blowouts, personalized 111SKIN facials, Elemental Herbology massages, and Coola sunscreen are highlights at the spa. The space will also test a hair sample to fine-tune a menu (via its Epigenetic Dining Experience) of foods you need, and those you don’t.

From the wellness cuisine to being surrounded by nothing but a turquoise lagoon and white sands, mindfulness is always top of mind.

The resort’s Optimisation Retreats start with Epigenetic Testing, a nonintrusive process during which a bio-profiler provides a report (and at-home support) on your body’s levels of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, contaminants and more.

Creating immediate relaxation and relieving stress-related tension are the main goals of the spa.

The island sanctuary offers many marine wonders, but most guests like to spend their time in their private villa pools and gigantic baths.
