Known as some of the world’s most romantic destinations, Soneva’s award-winning resorts are the ideal backdrop to a dream Valentine’s vacation. Soneva Fushi and Soneva Jani in the Maldives and Soneva Kiri in Thailand set the scene for the ultimate romantic getaway with luxurious private villas, one-of-a-kind experiences, delectable dining and indulgent wellness rituals.
At Soneva Fushi, couples can begin Valentine’s Day with a floating breakfast on the resort’s private sandbank, followed by yoga and meditation sessions at the Soneva Soul wellness center. At sunset, guests can enjoy a Valentine’s cruise around the tranquil waters of the Baa Atoll, spotting dolphins along the way. As evening falls, the resort’s private sandbank hosts an intimate dinner under the stars, complete with live music, followed by a special screening of La La Land (2016) at the open-air Cinema Paradiso. Valentine’s Day at Soneva Fushi isn’t just for couples, either – during the day, families can celebrate the holiday through a range of activities, including pop-up cards and pillowcase printing at The Den, a Valentine’s-themed treasure hunt and family Olympic Games for Young Sonevians.
At Soneva Jani, guests can start February 14 with a floating Champagne breakfast in the comfort of their own private pool. During the day, younger guests can take part in card-making and Valentine’s crafts at The Den, while parents enjoy some ‘me-time’ on the beach, a restorative intuitive massage at Soneva Soul, or a guided snorkeling session in the sparkling clear waters of the Noonu Atoll. When evening arrives, couples can celebrate with a choice of Valentine’s experiences, including a ‘Loving Journey Around the World’ five-course set menu at So Engaging accompanied by live music; a sumptuous seafood barbecue at So Primitive; or ‘A Good Year’ Valentine's Menu at Director's Cut that overlooks the silver screen at Cinema Paradiso. There is also a selection of private experiences to discover, including exploring the constellations during an exclusive dinner at So Starstruck or a dinner for two on a private island.
Nestled on the northern tip of the island of Koh Kood, Soneva Kiri is one of Thailand’s most romantic hideaways and Valentine’s celebrations begin from the moment guests wake. Guests can enjoy a sunrise breakfast cruise on a traditional wooden boat or a private breakfast amongst the treetops at the resort’s iconic bamboo pod, complete with Champagne, fruit and freshly baked pastries. During the day, unwind on the soft sands of South Beach with a cocktail in hand or explore the colorful underwater realms of nearby Koh Rang National Marine Park. Romantic dining options include dinner under the stars at the Lunar Deck, a romantic meal at The View and Kruua Mae Tuk, or a candlelit Valentine’s dinner on the Arrival Pier. For younger guests, there’s also Valentine’s card-making at the Eco Den as well as crêpe and chocolate truffle-making workshops.
