Joali is an exclusive resort located in the middle of the Indian Ocean, an island called Muravandhoo, in the Raa Atoll, north of Maldives. Endless white sandy beaches, lined with coconut palm trees and a seabed full of coral reefs make this island an ideal destination to get lost and live rocking to the rhythm of the tides, the sun and nature. Without time, without obligations, without routines, in communion with the remoteness of the place that paradoxically brings us closer to the deepest part of ourselves.
On this island, one of the priorities of the Joali resort is to preserve the fragile Maldives ecosystem. In this ecosystem, from the smallest insect to the largest palm tree, each species plays an important role in the balance of this earthly paradise.
One of Joali's differentiating facts is its involvement in the conservation of the coral reef. After in 2016, the effects of climate change caused the bleaching of 85% of the corals in the area, Joali launched a major coral reef recovery program, led by a team of biologists who plant the corals in a preserved site and, after 9-12 months, replant them on the reef to ensure their repopulation.
Coral bleaching occurs when corals face extreme and constant changes in temperature, light and nutrients, which causes stress, bleaching and, in many cases, death.
Joali is an ideal destination for couples and families who want to reconnect with nature and discover the experience of island life. The options for discovering the marine ecosystem of the area are extensive: from snorkeling, scuba diving or excursions in the traditional "dhonis" boats to spot the impressive manta ray or the small sharks that inhabit the waters of the Maldives.
The villas are dominated by an elegant and organic style at the same time, thanks to a successful interior design that combines wood, light colors, natural fabrics and exclusive details.
The gastronomic offer is exclusive and personalized. We recommend the "Her Kitchen" experience, which consists of cooking local recipes, accompanied by an expert chef and then enjoying what you have learned in a wonderful group dinner. On the other hand, the Vandhoo restaurant proposes a sophisticated type of gastronomic experience with a dinner based on dishes that fuse recipes from Southeast Asia, China and the Mediterranean. And if you prefer a Japanese dinner paired with different types of sake, the Saoke restaurant is the best option.
Walking or cycling tours, yoga classes, personal trainers or personalized spa treatments. The remote in Joali is not only a concept of time but of living the present of an island, its nature, its inhabitants and its ancestral traditions.
