It makes hospitality industry rethink luxury from a more responsible angle.

The category Eco-Spa of the Year awards those who combine the environmental responsibility into their wellness concept and offer an authentic, unforgettable and integrated experience.
Nestled amidst the blue waters of Meemu Atoll, Mandara Spa at Cinnamon Hakuraa Huraa is a place where all treatments are guided by the pace of the island and inspiration drawn from the healing traditions of Bali. All treatments aim to give visitors a moment to pause, get back in touch with their inner selves, and enjoy the peace of one of the most remarkable natural settings on earth.
The commitment to sustainability becomes a part of the guest experience via attempts to minimize the environmental impact of the spa through using only natural/organic products whenever possible, among other efforts.
