Family vacations in the Maldives are now perfect for younger kids

Ritz Kids is designed around creating unforgettable experiences for four to 12 year olds at all The Ritz-Carlton resorts worldwide. Now that philosophy comes to North Malé Atoll, with the Ritz Kids Club at The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands. No ordinary kids club, this one is intent on nurturing children’s imagination, encouraging their creativity and making them aware of the extraordinary environment all around them on a family vacation in the Maldives. Thoughtfully planned daily activities are fun but woven through with subtle learning about the land, water, environmental responsibility and culture. So kids can look forward to everything from bike safaris and cooking classes to making Maldivian Boduberu drums or pottery. Even the Ritz Kids’ space is innovative; blending indoors and outdoors to give kids playgrounds, a fun pool, areas for video games or movies, and even cute napping pods.

Family vacations in the Maldives immerse you in a unique environment and The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands is keen on inspiring guests to appreciate that rare beauty from a conservation angle. To that end it’s the first resort in the Asia-Pacific region to incorporate The Jean Michel Cousteau’s Ambassadors of the Environment Program which connects guests with the Maldives’ culture and extraordinary eco-system and fosters a deeper understanding of protecting the ocean, land and traditional lifestyles now, and in the future. This extraordinary program also plays a big part in kids’ activities like the Ritz Kids Treasure Hunt, children’s arts and crafts, and the exciting Ocean Mystery program for four to 12 year olds.
