At Milaidhoo Maldives, International Women’s Day is more than a date on the calendar; it is a meaningful celebration of the women whose talent and commitment shape the spirit of our intimate island home.

This year, Milaidhoo proudly recognises not only the remarkable women across the Milaidhoo Family, but also the five talented female chefs who are an integral part of our kitchen brigade. Culinary artistry lies at the very heart of the Milaidhoo experience, a celebration of heritage and creativity. Across our collection of restaurants, from island-inspired fine dining to relaxed beachfront flavours, cuisine becomes a narrative of place and people. Menus serve not as prescriptions but as inspiration; our chefs take pleasure in tailoring each dish and each moment to reflect the tastes and curiosities of every guest.

On 8^th March from 19.00, the ladies of our culinary team will take over the open kitchen at Shoreline Grill, inviting guests to embark on a specially curated International Women’s Day dinner. Designed and brought to life by five extraordinary women, the evening presents flavours drawn from their individual traditions and culinary perspectives. More than a dinner, it is an invitation to connect and celebrate together, an intimate gathering of the gastronomes for which Milaidhoo is known.
