This September, Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa made history by hosting the first-ever Maldives Hideaway Resort Run 2025, an exciting wellness and running event that brought fitness, fun, and tropical beauty together on one stunning island.

From September 19–21, 2025, the resort celebrated World Wellness Weekend with over 40 participants joining in. The experience kicked off on September 18 with a special shakeout run led by professional marathoner Sunny Schippers. Guests gathered at Meeru Bar for a warm welcome, where they received their race bibs, learned about the scenic running path, and connected with fellow runners.

The event featured three races designed for all ages and levels:

  • The 10K Challenge for competitive runners
  • The 5K Island Fun Run for social joggers and wellness traveller

But the Hideaway Resort Run was about more than running. Guests enjoyed a full weekend of wellness activities, including yoga at sunrise and sunset, fitness clinics led by Total Fitness Group, and calming sound healing sessions with Naga Healing. Evenings were filled with vibrant celebrations,  traditional music, and themed dining under the stars.

With 33 hectares of natural trails, wide beaches, and just 110 villas, Hideaway is the perfect setting for events like this—offering space, privacy, and a lively atmosphere without ever disturbing other guests. It’s no surprise the resort recently won the TTM Award 2025 for Best Sports and Recreation Resort in the Maldives, thanks to its excellent facilities including tennis, padel, pickleball, golf, and even a floating aqua park.

After such a successful debut, the Maldives Hideaway Resort Run is set to return every year—bigger, better, and more inspiring—making Hideaway the ultimate destination for wellness and active escapes in the Maldives.
