After her space flight to the International Space Station (ISS), Yulia Peresild touched down at Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa Maldives for a much-needed break from her busy schedule.

The Russian actress and philanthropist, who is a popular name in TV, movies, and theatre, is the very first actor in the world to become a cosmonaut with her flight to the ISS in early October this year. Her extremely successful career has made her one of the most in-demand actresses in Russia. She is best known for her roles in drama films such as ‘The Edge’, ‘The Bride’, and ‘Captive’.

She has just wrapped up filming for the movie ‘The Challenge’, to be released in 2022. The Challenge is the first feature-film shot in space and the crew returned to Earth on 17th of October, having spent nearly 12 days in space. Following the successful shooting, Yulia spent a well-deserved break with her family at our luxuriously spacious and private Hideaway. This is notably the actress’s very first time in the Maldives, and she could not have been more excited. Her first Instagram post from Hideaway credits her dear friend, Andrey Burkovskiy, with planning the trip. She is captured gleefully walking along the shoreline just as the sun is beginning to set. In addition to that, she also shared on her social media a very interesting aerial photo of the resort island taken by her astronaut friend, Pyotr Dubrov, all the way from space!

The island’s private setting and its curated experiences, made possible by impeccable Butler service, makes it the ideal escape for celebrities. Those who have vacationed at the resort include Sharman Joshi, Agata Muciniece, and Dieter Bohlen. Furthermore, the abundance of marine life around Hideaway is second to none – this makes the resort a prime location for snorkelling and diving.

The island getaway boasts some of the largest luxury beachfront villas in the Maldives enveloped in expertly nurtured thick foliage inside the 33-hecatres large island. The crescent-shaped private island rich in nature offers a choice of beach villas and overwater villas; with almost all villa categories with a private pool, to enjoy a the very best the luxury tropical paradise has to offer for friends, families, and couples alike. All-in-all, Hideaway turned out to be the perfectly splendid getaway for actress turned cosmonaut to unwind after shooting an entire feature-length film quite literally out of this world.

Check out the jolly time she had at Hideaway with her lovely family on Yulia’s Instagram.
