The Hotelier Maldives Wellness Summit, planned to be an annual event, also brings together other industry pioneers and leaders including Renate Hermes – Executive Director, Duniye Spa – and Aishath Zulfishan – Spa Manager, Kurumba Maldives. Renate Hermes will lead a panel discussion on global wellness trends.
