Kagi Maldives Spa Island is one of the most exciting and unique islands to open its doors to visitors in recent years and is located at the tip of North Male’, a 15 minute seaplane and 60 minute boat ride away from the airport. This resort, surrounded by picturesque views of sapphire seas, is a luxury boutique resort that offers a wellness retreat like no other. They combine their basis anchored in wellness with their dreamy, spacious over-water and beach villas which contain intricate pieces that centre on both contemporary and traditional designs, making this an authentic sanctuary to slow down and immerse into a world of self-care and relaxation. Apart from taking care of each and every wellness need of guests, Kagi Maldives also prioritises on looking after the environment and the coruscating natural surroundings of the property.

Kagi Maldives’ path to environmentally sustainable bliss includes their commitment to reducing the amount of plastic being used and therefore introduced fresh water in glass bottles via its very own desalination water plant, in which glass bottles are thoroughly sterilised before being reused. The obvious reduction in single used plastic also includes their prohibition of purchasing drinks that come in plastic bottles and rather incorporates the practice of acquiring those in aluminium or glass bottles. This directly contributes to reducing pollution and to the decrease in the demand of plastic production. Besides, who doesn’t love a refreshing drink from a chilled glass water bottle? 

The resort also focuses on saving our oceans with their engagement in ‘Marine Conservation’ as part of the Kagi Maldives’ Sustainability Programme. The vibrant coral reefs are the heartstrings of the country’s magnificent natural glory and thus the resort established a Coral Nursery in partnership with Euro-Divers, in which they have 15 coral fragments that are currently growing and are being nurtured in a well-monitored environment so that they could be transplanted back into the reef. This is a momentous taken by the resort in battling the ongoing crises against coral bleaching which has been occuring more frequently due to the rise in water temperatures. Furthermore, sustainability is also a huge factor in Kagi Maldives Spa Island’s desire to create a more environmentally mindful space in the resort as the resort is built on extensive use of natural resources, smart design and architecture allowing natural conditions to be of ultimate importance. With this and the use of LED lights on the entirety of the luscious, green landscapes and extravagant properties that are housed by the resort, it induces a significant saving of 1000kWh per day. This increasingly diminishes the island’s carbon footprint and it equates to 742kg of emissions being saved each and every day. 

Kagi Maldives also incorporated their environmentally friendly approach to their most awe-inspiring feature, The Baani Spa. This facility is unlike any ordinary Spa as they use fundamental elements of wellness in providing a holistic experience that benefits your mind, body and soul. Baani Spa is partnered with celebrity skin care brand, Epicuren Discovery which is a brand that focuses not only on providing the most result-driven wellness and skin-care experiences but also shares a passion for the environment as well. This is heightened with the varieties in Kagi Maldives’ Healing Ocean Skin-Care amenities, ranging from hand and body wash to shampoo, conditioner, after sun gel, hand and body soothers and solid soaps that are all biodegradable. The Healing Ocean line also includes environment friendly antimicrobial agents that certify that no toxic pollutants have a chance of encountering our sparkling azure waters and these products are also packaged in exuberant recycled glass packaging as well. This is consequential as the ocean is the bloodline of the Maldives and especially in a vulnerable coral reef ecosystem like the one Kagi Maldives is situated in, it is deadly important that there is no harm done to the ocean. 

Kagi Maldives Island Spa not only offers wonderfully exhilarating escape from reality but does so with the assurance that your stay at the island is met with environmental awareness, education and healing.
