Request a quoteSet on the private island of Muravandhoo in the northern Raa Atoll, JOALI Maldives is the first resort in the country built around art, and the sister property to the wellbeing-focused JOALI BEING nearby. Site-specific works by international artists carry through the villas, the public spaces, and the beaches, including Porky Hefer’s Manta Ray treehouse, which doubles as a private dining room. The island is reached by a 40-minute seaplane flight from Malé.
Accommodation covers 73 villas and residences across beach and overwater categories, all with private pools and curated art and design throughout. Two-bedroom family villas come with two pools.
The resort holds a Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star rating and a Michelin Key, with five restaurants, a spa, and a strong kids’ programme covering the rest of the offering.
Five restaurants at the property. Saoke is the signature, a Japanese venue suspended over the water with a dramatic timber structure. Vandhoo is the all-day main restaurant, with three open kitchens covering international and Maldivian cooking.
Bellinis handles Italian, Tuh’u covers Mediterranean and Middle Eastern, and the Porky Hefer Manta Ray treehouse functions as a private dining experience above the canopy. Saoke Terrace and the beach bar round out the programme.
JOALI Spa by ESPA sits among the foliage, with treatment rooms set over the water and a menu built around the brand’s holistic ESPA approach. Massages, facials, and body treatments draw on natural ingredients alongside the resort’s wider art-led design language.
A fitness centre, yoga pavilion, and a slate of wellbeing activities sit alongside, with the sister property JOALI BEING nearby for guests wanting a deeper wellness focus.
JOALI Maldives is on the 24-acre island of Muravandhoo in the Raa Atoll, around 280 km north of Malé. It is reached by a 40-minute seaplane flight, or a 35-minute domestic flight to Ifuru Airport followed by a 15-minute speedboat.
Raa Atoll is one of the largest and deepest atolls in the world, rich in marine life, with the resort’s house reef best accessed from the sunrise side and manta and reef shark dive sites within easy reach.
