First look inside new Maldives luxury resort featuring a candy spa with edible treatments

A new, luxury Maldives resort boasts the ultimate experience for kids – a candy spa.

At the Centara Mirage Lagoon Resort, kids can enjoy a sweet escape with manicures, candy-themed spa parties, and edible treatments made from real chocolate.

From bubble gum sherbet to toffee apple, they can create custom body scrubs or enjoy a soothing massage infused with tasty strawberries and cream.

Newly opened – holidaymakers can enjoy a staggering 35% off room rates at this four-star haven by booking through Destination2.

Underwater world-themed resort

This impressive underwater world-themed resort is the latest addition to Centara Hotels & Resorts’ Maldives portfolio and is designed to cater for every member of the family.

Made for both adventure and relaxation, this new 4-star resort is located in the scenic North Male Atoll. Offering 145 stylish rooms, available with your own private jacuzzis and pools – it’s a true luxury experience.

Guests can unwind on the pristine beach, swim in clear lagoons or even float along the resorts own lazy river. In the evening, there’s a fantastic array of restaurants that are made for relaxing and taking in your idyllic surroundings.

And if one new destination isn’t enough, a sister resort, the Centara Grand Lagoon Maldives, is set to open in February 2025. Creating a multi-island destination, holidaymakers will get an exciting chance to explore both resorts during their stay.

For those seeking an exotic winter getaway, enjoy seven nights from the 2nd December at £2299pp, with half-board accommodation. This offer includes up to 35% off room rates and up to 40% off speedboat transfers.
