A Soulful Island Retreat for Deep Rejuvenation and Ocean-Infused Serenity
Cradled by the turquoise waters of the Thaa Atoll and embraced by coral reefs and coconut palms, COMO Shambhala Retreat at COMO Maalifushi is a serene sanctuary for deep wellness and ocean renewal. This overwater spa experience is a cornerstone of the island’s quiet luxury — a place where sunrise yoga meets intuitive healing, and the sea becomes both backdrop and balm.
Designed with simplicity, purity, and privacy in mind, every treatment and space is aligned with the COMO philosophy: to realign, rebalance, and renew through holistic care.
