This Eid al-Adha, Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi invites guests to escape to a tranquil realm where tradition and luxury intertwine. Set across three interconnected islands, the resort is curating an exclusive multi-day celebration that honours the spirit of Eid through immersive experiences rooted in heritage, family connection, and mindful indulgence.

The resort’s Eid programme launches with a vibrant Maldivian Night at Nava Beach, featuring a traditional buffet, live BoduBeru drumming, and a bonfire under the stars. Guests can begin each morning with Eid-inspired breakfasts at Tasting Table, while evenings bring family together around the fire at The Ledge by Dave Pynt, where whole roasted lamb shoulder is served in a relaxed beachfront setting. For a more Arabian-inspired experience, Eid Majlis at Yasmeenpresents mezze feasts and grilled favourites beneath a canopy of stars.
Young guests are celebrated too, with a dedicated programme of Eid-themed arts and crafts, cupcake decorating, treasure hunts, and starlit movie nights, while teens can enjoy paddle tennis tournaments and gaming challenges. For moments of rejuvenation, the Waldorf Astoria Spa offers Eid rituals such as Glowing Serenity and Healing Waters & Herbal Harmony, connecting the spiritual essence of the holiday with wellness.
