Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa Announces Exclusive Culinary Collaboration with Germany’s Top Food Creators Tina & Alex

Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa invites travelers to savor a unique fusion of island life and gastronomy with a special collaboration featuring Germany’s celebrated food creators, Tina & Alex Pestl. Set on the pristine shores of Furanafushi Island, the partnership brings guests closer to the flavors of the Maldives through interactive experiences that celebrate food, culture, and connection.
One of the highlights of this collaboration takes place on 22 October 2025, when guests are invited to embark on a traditional Maldivian group fishing excursion. The day culminates in a beachside grilling of the fresh catch, followed by a memorable seaside dinner under the stars with Tina & Alex—a quintessential island experience that combines the joy of fishing, the taste of the ocean, and the warmth of shared stories.
Known as the duo behind Germany’s acclaimed blog Selbstgemacht–Der Foodblog, Tina & Alex are loved for their approachable, family-style recipes and commitment to fresh, regional ingredients. Their time in the Maldives will allow guests to connect with them beyond the digital world, gaining inspiration from their culinary passion while discovering the essence of Maldivian flavors.
“We are excited to welcome Tina & Alex to our island paradise,” said Greg Allan, General Manager of Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa. “Our vision has always been to create moments that bring people together. This collaboration captures that spirit perfectly, offering a blend of culture, cuisine, and the natural beauty of the Maldives.”
Tina & Alex added, “Food is about creating memories and connections. The Maldives, with its incredible ingredients and breathtaking setting, is the perfect backdrop for this culinary journey. We can’t wait to share this experience with guests.”
Nestled in North Malé Atoll, just a 15-minute speedboat ride from Velana International Airport, Sheraton Maldives offers a sanctuary where turquoise lagoons, lush gardens, and diverse dining options set the stage for meaningful experiences. With 176 villas, a vibrant selection of seven restaurants and bars, a water sports and dive center, and Shine Spa for Sheraton, the resort is a haven for travelers seeking relaxation, discovery, and connection.
As part of this collaboration, Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa introduces an exclusive Marriott Bonvoy Moment—a four-night Culinary Escape with Tina and Alex from 20 to 24 October 2025 for two persons. The once-in-a-lifetime experience includes a premium all-inclusive stay in an Overwater Villa with Pool, daily gourmet dining across the resort’s restaurants complemented by a wide selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, a tropical island lunch paired with an interactive cooking class led by Tina & Alex, and the group fishing excursion with live grilling and beachside dinner.
Guests will also enjoy a rejuvenating treatment at Shine Spa for Sheraton, a sunset dolphin cruise, and the opportunity to explore the vibrant lagoon with complimentary snorkeling, paddleboarding, and kayaking.
