Bringing together a hand-picked group of travel advisors, Addicted to Maldives recently hosted an exclusive educational famil across some of the Maldives’ most luxurious resorts.
With advisors joining from multiple regions, the trip served not only as an immersive product experience but also as a valuable opportunity to strengthen global relationships across the Addicted to Maldives network.
The curated itinerary showcased four of the Maldives’ most iconic properties: Six Senses Laamu, Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi, Niyama Private Islands, and The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli – each offering their own unique slice of island paradise.
At Six Senses Laamu, the group witnessed a truly once-in-a-lifetime moment — the hatching of a turtle nest right on the beach.
The next stop, Waldorf Astoria, saw advisors each hosted in expansive Grand Beach Villas with Pools, where privacy and indulgence went hand in hand. With 11 dining outlets across the property, every meal became a culinary event.
At Niyama Private Islands, one member of the group had the chance to paddle out to the left-hand surf break, Vodi, directly from the beach. Dinnering at Subsix, the resort’s famed underwater restaurant, was another standout moment.
At the final stop, The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli, the group was treated to a celebratory champagne sabering on arrival to welcome the advisors back to the island, with a surprise pool party at the resort’s opulent three-bedroom Caroline Astor Estate capping off the stay.
Evenings at The Whale Bar, with cocktails in hand and a resident DJ spinning sunset beats, became a nightly tradition – and the perfect way to reflect on the day’s experiences.
