August 2023: The science behind hitting the reset button and unplugging from the virtual world to reconnect with the real one can be difficult to master, but there are very few places on earth that turn this science into an elevated art.

According to Daniel J. Levitin, activating the “mind-wandering mode” (or, simply, daydreaming) not only rekindles our creativity and productivity, but is also biologically restorative for the brain. When that restoration takes place in a 3,000 sqm idyllic paradise in the Maldives, where unparalleled luxury meets indulgent hospitality, the result is a timeless suspension of reality.

This is the essential allure of Royal RESERVE at the award-winning OZEN RESERVE BOLIFUSHI – a private retreat with 3 lavish bedrooms, a sprawling main Sanctuary, exclusive amenities and undisturbed views of the Indian Ocean. But time spent at OZEN RESERVE BOLIFUSHI is much more than a glamourous vacation – it’s an invitation to go off the grid to embrace a fulfilling and more connected lifestyle.

Set against vibrant foliage, majestic waters and some of the world’s best diving spots, Royal RESERVE is that rare destination which combines uber-luxe service with the serenity of the sea. Swaying palms transport guests to a tranquil sanctuary of secluded bliss – and hark back to an era when technology was not an addictive hinderance, when vacations enabled travellers to find meaningful fulfilment.

With global events shining a light on humanity’s unpredictable fragility, more people today are looking for an escape from the daily grind to connect deeply and freely with their inner selves. This is further highlighted by the increasing realisation that a true holiday does not mean disconnecting, but rather reconnecting in an impactful way with fun, friends, and family; the essential flavours of life.
