Grand Park Kodhipparu Maldives has reported strong demand from the Chinese market this Lunar New Year, with the resort reaching high occupancy levels and limited villa availability throughout the festive period.

This performance reflects a growing appetite among Chinese travellers for experience-led luxury shaped by meaning, intention and connection, rather than celebration alone.

Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival, marks a time of renewal and forward momentum. In the Year of the Fire Horse, traditionally associated with passion, confidence and bold new journeys, many couples are inspired to look ahead, considering shared experiences and future travel plans that reflect their aspirations together.

While availability during the peak festive period remains limited, the resort is embracing the spirit of the season with the launch of a special offer featuring a 30 per cent saving, designed for future stays that allow guests to slow down and reconnect.

Inspired by the symbolism of the new moon and fresh beginnings, The Lunar Retreat: New Moon, New Memories invites couples to plan a future escape to the Maldives at a time that allows for deeper relaxation, reflection and connection.

The experience is shaped around a more considered rhythm of island living, blending contemporary design with moments that encourage reconnection — with oneself, with one another and with the natural flow of life on a private island. Days unfold at an unhurried pace, allowing space for meaningful togetherness alongside moments of quiet retreat.

Available for direct booking via the resort’s official website from mid-February, the offer applies to stays through to the end of May 2026, encouraging couples to travel beyond the peak festive period and experience the island at its most serene.

Designed to carry the intentions set during Chinese New Year into the months ahead, the offer transforms seasonal reflection into lasting shared memories. Select experiences may be enhanced through thoughtfully curated moments that bring people together, adding depth to the stay while preserving privacy, calm and intimacy.

Raffaele Solferino, General Manager of Grand Park Kodhipparu Maldives, commented that the resort was delighted to see such strong interest from Chinese guests during Chinese New Year. While availability during the festive period itself was limited, he noted that The Lunar Retreat allowed couples to carry the meaning of the season forward, turning new intentions into new memories at a time that feels unhurried and deeply personal.

Set on a pristine private island just minutes from Malé, the resort is renowned for its overwater and beachfront villas, immersive wellness experiences and intuitive service, offering a naturally balanced setting for couples seeking both romance and renewal.
