Male’, Maldives, 2nd April 2024 – The concept of buddymoons, where couples extend invitations to friends to join them on their honeymoon, has experienced a notable surge in popularity, according to recent data from a survey conducted by the wedding hub Hitched. Approximately one-fifth of couples in the midst of wedding planning are open to the idea of hosting a buddymoon.
Embracing this emerging trend, Jawakara Islands Maldives, the newest addition to Crown and Champa Resorts’ portfolio, introduces a bespoke program designed for buddymoon experiences. Situated in the picturesque Lhaviyani Atoll, this luxury resort spans two interconnected islands connected by an overseas walkway. The unveiling of this innovative itinerary marks Jawakara’s commitment to providing personalized buddymoon experiences, tailored to the individual preferences of each guest.
The materialization of buddymoons may be attributed in part to broader shifts in travel trends. Research conducted by Globetrender and Cazenove+Loyd suggests a growing demand for elaborate and extended special-occasion trips, particularly for milestone celebrations. Additionally, Black Tomato reports that group travel constitutes a significant 30% of all bookings.
These findings underscore Jawakara’s position as a trailblazer in group travel to the Maldives, offering a resort experience specifically crafted for group and multigenerational adventures.
