This summer, The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands is offering more than just tropical luxury with the launch of The Summer Collective: Masters, Explorers, & Extraordinary Moments. Running from June to August, the program brings together global experts, exciting adventures, and wellness activities to create an unforgettable experience for guests of all ages.
The initiative is rooted in the resort’s four core pillars—Nature, Exploration, Responsibility, and Culture—and is designed to inspire curiosity, creativity, and deeper connections.
Adventure, Wellness & Learning
The summer kicks off in June with professional big-wave surfer Nic Von Rupp, who will host a series of surf sessions from June 17 to 20. Guests can enjoy four surf lessons—two for beginners and two for more advanced surfers—guided by the pro himself in the Maldives’ crystal-clear waters.
In July, from the 10th to the 24th, mindfulness expert and sound healer Susy Markoe Schieffelin returns to the resort for a series of wellness classes. Guests can take part in yoga, sound healing, and energy-focused sessions, complemented by food and beverage pairings themed around the body’s seven chakras. Children will also have dedicated workshops promoting emotional balance and creative self-expression.
August brings hands-on science to the spotlight with Sergei Urban—known as TheDadLab—who will lead interactive workshops from August 14 to 16. These sessions will encourage children and families to explore topics like sustainability, nature, and culture in engaging, playful ways. One of his workshops will be permanently integrated into the resort’s children’s programming.
Culinary & Cocktail Excellence
Adding a culinary twist to the summer, Line, a top-ranked cocktail bar from Athens, will bring its signature drinks to the resort’s EAU Bar. Bartender Vasilis Kyritsis and Chef Panagiotis Polychronis will introduce creative cocktails and a zero-waste dining concept.
Family Offers by Marriott Bonvoy
To make it even more appealing for families, Marriott Bonvoy is offering exclusive summer benefits across its eight private island resorts in the Maldives, including The Ritz-Carlton Maldives. Perks include complimentary full-board upgrades, free stays and meals for children, and personalized experiences for every age group.
With The Summer Collective, The Ritz-Carlton Maldives offers guests the chance to dive into a season full of discovery, wellness, and extraordinary moments.
