Remote Maldives resort opens couples-focused Chavana Spa
A new Chavana Spa has opened at the Adaaran Select Hudhuranfushi resort in the Maldives, a surfing destination located within a 30-minute speedboat ride from Male International Airport.
Situated in the North Male Atoll, the tropical beach property near Kani Beach on Lhohifushi Island now features a spa by Steiner Spa Consultants – the subsidiary of Steiner Leisure which deals with spa operations, staff training, concept, design, construction and ongoing management.
The Chavana Spa features four double treatment rooms with an outdoor bath and shower. The treatment rooms are located in three outdoor timber pavilions which are arranged around a central courtyard. This central space is occupied by an open air reception space, a manicure-pedicure room and a retail boutique and lounge.
The Chavana Spa brand offers face and body treatments influenced by Balinese healing traditions including the signature four-hands Chavana massage. Spa products and therapies will be provided by Elemis.
Steiner Spa Consulting oversees over 200 spa venues on land and at sea (on cruise liners). Land-based spa operations are carried out under five brands: Elemis, Mandara, Chavana, Bliss and Remède.
The Chavana brand offers a streamlined treatment menu specifically designed for spa novices. The contemporary brand has been designed to introduce spa-goers to an environment where they can feel comfortable and not overwhelmed.
