Carving out time for yourself is sometimes easier said than done. We are all guilty as charged of allowing ourselves to be swamped with responsibilities, but juggling between family obligations, keeping in touch with friends and never-ending demands at work takes a toll on our well-being and sense of self. The good news, though, is that even if it’s not always possible to find a few hours to spare for things you enjoy doing at home, a holiday offers both an excuse and a reason to be positively selfish and allow yourself to be pampered from head to toe. If the holiday is at Kuredu in the Maldives, all the better!

Duniye Spa is the obvious choice when it comes to taking ‘me time’ at Kuredu. All treatments will help your body and soul to rest and recharge. And the best part? You don’t even have to read the full menu to determine which indulgence to go for – we’re taking another decision off your shoulders by making a selection of three very best treatments that are guaranteed to change your inner script from ‘I’m too busy’ to ‘But first: spaaaa!’.
