Club Med Kani Maldives will host the second edition of its Mumcation wellness retreat from 5–10 November 2026, expanding the premium all-inclusive brand’s women-focused travel offering amid rising demand for restorative, purpose-led holidays.
A Second Edition in Club Med Kani Maldives
Club Med Kani will stage the second iteration of Mumcation following its 2025 debut, positioning the initiative within the fast-growing wellness tourism segment.
Running from 5–10 November 2026, the programme is designed for mothers seeking structured time to pause and reset. Guests may travel solo or with friends, with optional access to Kids Clubs for added flexibility.
The 2026 edition introduces a refreshed itinerary and continues its collaboration with wellness coach Tammi Kirkness, featuring:
- Three half-day mindfulness workshops
- One 30-minute customised massage
- A 60-minute welcome cocktail session
- Full access to the resort’s premium all-inclusive offering
The package is priced from USD 3,099 per person sharing.
Wellness Programming Meets All-Inclusive Convenience
Set against white sands and turquoise lagoons in the Maldives, Mumcation blends guided wellness sessions with the operational ease of Club Med’s all-inclusive model.
Inclusions at Club Med Kani cover:
- Premium accommodation
- All-day gourmet dining
- Open bar
- Land and water sports
- Evening entertainment
- Kids Clubs (optional use)
This structure removes the planning burden often associated with standalone wellness retreats, aligning with broader travel trends favouring frictionless experiences.
Executive Commentary
Julie Voultepsis, Head of Meetings and Events for Club Med Pacific, said the concept was shaped by first-hand observations of modern motherhood pressures.
She noted that the strong response to the inaugural 2025 edition validated demand for travel experiences combining relaxation with meaningful wellness programming.
Michelle Davies, General Manager for Club Med Pacific and New ESAP Markets, added that Mumcation reflects evolving travel behaviour, with guests increasingly seeking emotional wellbeing and personal growth through holidays.

Why It Matters
Mumcation sits at the intersection of three high-growth segments:
- Wellness tourism market expansion (projected to reach USD 2.1 trillion by 2030)
- Women-led travel demand
- Premium all-inclusive holidays with purpose-driven positioning
Rather than launching a standalone retreat brand, Club Med is embedding structured wellness programming into its existing resort ecosystem. This allows:
- Operational scalability
- Lower acquisition costs versus niche retreats
- Built-in family flexibility via Kids Clubs
- Stronger repeat visitation potential
For trade partners, Mumcation represents a differentiated product within the Maldives portfolio, a destination traditionally marketed around romance and honeymoon travel.
