The Art of Graceful Change: A Transformative Menopause Retreat at OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi

June 5–9, 2025 | A Sanctuary of Renewal Awaits in the Maldives

In the quiet rhythm of the ocean, a new kind of retreat is calling, a space where women are invited to step into one of life’s most profound transitions not with hesitation but with honour, grace, and inner strength.

This June, OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi, the Maldives’ soulful, wellness-forward resort, unveils The Art of Graceful Change—a holistic menopause retreat created for the modern woman who is ready to embrace midlife as a threshold of wisdom, vitality, and transformation. Thoughtfully designed by ELE|NA, this intimate four-night retreat (June 5–9, 2025) celebrates the beauty of evolving, aging and awakening into one’s most authentic self.

Set on a serene island just 15 minutes from Malé International Airport, the retreat invites participants on a journey of renewal woven with expert-led wellness practices, healing therapies, conscious movement, and the power of shared stories. Inspired by ELE|NA’s Wellness Your Way™ philosophy, each element of the program is attuned to honour the individuality of every woman—her rhythm, her needs, her narrative.

“Menopause is a profound transition, often marked by physical changes and emotional shifts that can feel overwhelming and isolating. As I navigate my perimenopausal journey, I felt a deep calling to create a supportive sanctuary. In line with ELE | NA’s Wellness Your Way™ philosophy, this is a compassionate, judgment-free space where women can explore this chapter authentically—equipped with knowledge, empowered with tools, and uplifted by community. It’s about reconnecting with self-love and finding strength in shared experiences as we move through this stage—together,”

Heidi Grimwood, Vice President, ELE|NA Spa.

The retreat unfolds across a natural haven of soulful simplicity, where nature-inspired architecture, calming hues, and the expansive Indian Ocean create a sanctuary for reflection and rediscovery. Whether it’s the rejuvenating touch of ELE|NA’s bespoke therapies, wisdom-rich sessions on hormonal health and nutrition, or gentle breathwork under the Maldivian sky, every moment is a loving invitation to reconnect with the body, with purpose, and with joy.

The Art of Graceful Change is an offering for the woman who has given so much and is now ready to receive. To soften. To listen inward. To rise with clarity and compassion into her next chapter.
