Where healing meets paradise — experience wellness like never before

The Maldives is expanding its economic horizons by stepping into the medical tourism market, aiming to blend top-tier healthcare with its world-renowned luxury travel scene. Health Minister Abdulla Nazim Ibrahim revealed that the government is reviewing proposals from foreign investors to establish specialised hospitals for international patients. This initiative seeks to diversify the tourism sector, capitalising on the Maldives’ reputation for exclusive hospitality.

Some proposals envision full medical campuses with training facilities, while others plan to integrate medical services within resorts, offering travellers both healthcare and relaxation. Resorts in the Maldives like The Residence Maldives provide guests with access to wellness services alongside indulgent stays. As tourism contributed USD 5.6 billion in 2024, medical tourism represents a promising new avenue.
