Coco Collection unveils a two-island wellness escape in the Maldives

Coco Collection, a truly Maldivian-owned resort brand celebrated for its personalised hospitality and soulful island settings, invites guests to slow the pace and simply be with  a Two-Island Wellness Escape unfolding across Coco Bodu Hithi and Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu. Taking place from 13 to 21 June 2026, the retreat honours both Global Wellness Day and the International Yoga  Day with a series of restorative experiences thoughtfully curated to guide guests towards balance,  relaxation, and regeneration. 
The journey is led by guest wellness practitioner Zelmaré Viljoen, a South African based in the UAE  whose holistic approach focuses on mindful living, breathwork, movement, and emotional well-being. With an extensive repertoire spanning certified Yoga Therapy, Meditation, Pilates, and Sound Healing,  Zelmaré guides individuals towards reconnection, balance, and inner calm through her conscious and  intuitive practices. The experiences move in a natural rhythm across both islands: mornings begin softly  with grounding movement as the day rises, while afternoons foster quiet reflection and peaceful  healing. Each moment is designed to meet guests exactly where they are, without expectation,  empowering them to fully immerse themselves in the present at their own pace. 
At Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu, set within the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of Baa Atoll, the celebrations open  with Global Wellness Day under the theme #JoyMagenta, from 13 to 16 June. Guests are welcomed into  a gentle Wellness Walk and a Reset & Restore Experience at Coco Spa, complete with detox drinks, a  guided spa tour, and calming breathwork. The days that follow flow between Morning Pilates and  Sunset Gentle Flow Yoga on Palm Beach, an evocative New Moon Ceremony and Sound Healing  beneath the ocean sky, and a playful Kids Yoga & Storytelling session that brings calmness and joy to  younger guests. 
Meanwhile, at Coco Bodu Hithi, recently recognised as the Best Waterside Hotel at the Condé Nast  Johansens Awards for Excellence 2026 and set in the tranquil waters of North Malé Atoll, the retreat  continues from 18 to 20 June. Guests awaken the body with an overwater Vinyasa Flow, build strength  and clarity through Core Pilates and Morning Breathwork, and ease into stillness with an evening of  Hatha Yoga & Sound Healing at the resort's serene Yoga Pavilion. 
The retreat culminates on Sunday, 21 June, as both islands greet the sunrise together in celebration of  the International Day of Yoga under the theme “Yoga for Wellness, Wisdom, and World Peace.” At Coco  Bodu Hithi, guests flow through a Morning Sun Salutation, settle into a Meditation & Sound Bath  accompanied by Tibetan bowls, and gather for The Mindful Circle of herbal infusions, gentle conversation, and breathwork. At Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu, a sunrise Surya Namaskar and a restorative  Sunset Vinyasa Flow on Palm Beach are followed by detox drinks and light refreshments. Together, the  two islands offer a transformative wellness journey, distinctive in character yet unified in aim. 
From the unspoiled beauty of Baa Atoll to the tranquil seas of North Malé Atoll, the retreat becomes a  journey of natural beauty, solitude, and self-discovery. Chargeable private sessions are available for  guests seeking a more personalised wellness experience.
