Valentine's Day at InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort
In February, romance and love are knocking on our doors, and our lovebirds are getting ready to celebrate the most romantic day of the year, Valentine's Day. The team at InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort understands romance and has curated some quite memorable moments for them to look forward to.
The island of Maamunagau is located at the Southern tip of Raa Atoll, secluded, natural and surrounded by unobstructed views and a magical starry sky by night. Valentine's Day celebrants can be sure the setting is one of a kind and the best spot to forget time and let romance take over. Every couple has their own story and preferences, which is reflected in the Valentine's Day arrangements and choices. From small gifts and surprises to the most splendid and sumptuous private dining experience or a luxury love bird package aboard our luxury Yacht, there is much to look forward to.
Romance like never before when the tiniest dhoni, a traditional Maldivian Bokkura, picks you up and takes the lucky couple on a mini-sunset cruise with Champagne along the Maamunagau shores before they settle down to a private Teppanyaki dining experience. If guests prefer that little extra with an even more luxurious experience, there is the Luxury Valentine's Day Extravaganza option, including a couple spa treatment at AVI Spa, a sunset cruise on our luxury yacht with Champagne and Canapes and an amazing beach dinner.
Guests staying at InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort can book their Valentine's Experience during their stay, subject to availability. Prices for the special Valentine's Experiences start from USD 750 ++. Rates for stays in February start from USD 1300 ++ per night in a Water Pool Villa, including breakfast for two.

Manly Nightlife With Kurtis Bosley
Hospitality consultant, award-winning mixologist and owner of Manly restaurant and bar Banco, Kurtis Bosley knows a thing or two about how to have a great night out in Manly. Here the local shares his knowledge for a memorable after-dark excursion to the nightlife hub of Sydney's laidback Northern Beaches, now just as popular for its culinary scene as its buzzing late-night bars. Salute the sunset with a drink in-hand The night begins early at Banco on Manly's Whistler Street, which serves a special sips and snacks menu until 6pm. “It's our take on a happy hour, with a menu of bite-sized snacks that changes all the time — there might be a mini lobster roll, or maybe a steak tartare,” explains Kurtis, who recommends kicking off your evening with bar manager Jacopo Montis's wine pick of the day. “In the afternoon he'll open a bottle of something that he's loving to drink, and that usually that sits in the natural, biodynamic, minimal-intervention style of wine, and always has a really lovely story,” says Kurtis. “A big part of what we do in this space is have that extra interaction with guests; we talk about where the wine comes from, where your food comes from and how it might have been farmed. We want guests to feel at home here.” Sunset tends to draw Manly locals and visitors alike to the seaside, particularly the suburb's harbourside wharf, which offers stellar views to the southwest as the sun sinks behind the city. “Going into summer, it's really nice to grab a beer down at Wharf Bar [also known as Manly Wharf Hotel], which was recently renovated,” says Kurtis. “The Manly Skiff Club, which has been there for over 100 years, is another good place for a sunset drink, with a great view across Little Manly.”
