Resort & Hospitality Tech: LuxAtolls launched the LuxAtolls Maldives Pricing Index, an open dataset covering transfer costs, mealplan premiums and deal activity across 129 resorts, showing transfer prices can vary 23-fold and all-inclusive mealplan upgrades can average 158% above half-board. Wellness & Spa Partnerships: Mandara Spa in the Maldives is deepening its wellness offering via its long-running partnership with ELEMIS, positioning treatments around modern, science-led skincare and island wellbeing. Industry Events: Visit Maldives endorsed TechEng 2026 (6–8 Oct, Hulhumalé), a B2B exhibition for hospitality technology and engineering, highlighting energy, water, digital infrastructure and sustainable engineering. Public Health Policy: President Muizzu renewed calls for a tobacco-free Maldives, pointing to the e-cigarette ban and Tobacco-Free Generation policy, while warning about flavoured nicotine pouches and AI-driven marketing. Local Tourism Offers: Dhiraagu and Vahmaafushi launched a giveaway for Maldives’ first zipline adventure, with Elite Club members also getting discounts via the Dhiraagu Elite Digital Card.
