In the latest issue of DSECTION, we had the privilege of reviewing Joali Being, a chapter of my life that was filled with cherished memories and unparalleled wonder. As I bid farewell to its breathtaking beauty, I now find myself drawn to a new destination that promises to captivate my senses and ignite my curiosity – Joali Maldives. As we approached Joali Maldives, I couldn’t contain my amazement. The turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean stretched out in front of us, and the private island’s lush greenery welcomed us to a world of unparalleled luxury. Arriving by boat from Joali Being, the resort’s sister property, was an exciting adventure that set the tone for an unforgettable island getaway. From the moment we stepped onto the island, we were greeted by the warm hospitality of the staff. The resort manager escorted us to our overwater villa, and I was captivated by its elegance and attention to detail. The thatched roof, wooden accents, and open-concept layout seamlessly blended modern aesthetics with traditional Maldivian craftsmanship. The artwork and furnishings showcased the resort’s commitment to supporting local artisans and craftsmen. Our private deck offered panoramic views of the lagoon, and the infinity pool seemed to merge with the turquoise waters, creating a sense of floating on water. It was pure bliss. The villas here are an epitome of indulgence, designed to offer an unforgettable escape in the lap of nature. Imagine waking up to the gentle sound of the ocean, stepping out of your villa and onto the soft sandy beach, or diving straight into the crystal-clear lagoon from your overwater villa.
The villas at Joali Maldives are a dream come true for travelers seeking a luxurious and eco-conscious retreat. From beachfront villas with direct access to the powdery sands to overwater villas perched above the azure lagoon, the accommodation options are diverse and exquisite. Each villa is thoughtfully designed with a blend of contemporary aesthetics and traditional Maldivian elements, creating a perfect sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation. The attention to detail in the villas is awe-inspiring. Spacious living areas, private pools, and sun decks offer ample opportunities for lounging and soaking in the breathtaking views. One of the highlights of Joali Maldives is its commitment to sustainability. The villas are designed with eco-friendly materials that blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings, minimizing the resort’s ecological footprint. Energy-efficient lighting, water conservation measures, and responsible waste management practices are incorporated to protect the fragile ecosystem of the Maldives.
The culinary experiences at Joali Maldives were a true delight. The resort’s restaurants were a food lover’s paradise, offering the freshest local seafood, international flavors infused with local spices, and exquisite fine dining experiences. Each culinary masterpiece left us in awe, and we savored every moment of our dining experiences. The resort boasted a diverse range of restaurants, each offering a unique culinary journey. Vandhoo, the resort’s all-day dining restaurant, impressed us with its extensive international and Maldivian cuisine options, including fresh seafood, flavorful curries, and delectable desserts. The Japanese restaurant, Saoke, was a culinary masterpiece, offering a fusion of Japanese and Maldivian flavors in a stunning setting overlooking the ocean. The treehouse restaurant, Bellinis, offered a romantic ambiance and a Mediterranean-inspired menu that left our taste buds craving for more. Apart from the luxurious accommodations and dining options, Joali Maldives’ commitment to sustainability was truly admirable. The resort had implemented various initiatives to minimize its environmental impact and promote sustainable practices. One notable effort was the resort’s coral propagation program, where they cultivated coral fragments in underwater nurseries and then transplanted them onto damaged reefs to aid in their recovery. In addition to coral propagation, the resort had extensive recycling and waste management programs in place to reduce waste. They also used eco-friendly practices such as solar power and rainwater harvesting to minimize their carbon footprint.
The resort’s commitment to sustainability was evident in every aspect of our stay, and we appreciated their dedication to preserving the pristine beauty of the Maldivian environment. The wellness offerings at Joali Maldives were a haven of rejuvenation for us. The overwater spa offered a range of spa treatments using natural and organic ingredients, leaving us feeling relaxed and revitalized. It was a perfect balance of luxury and wellness, and we left feeling refreshed and renewed. Our days at Joali Maldives were filled with unforgettable experiences. From snorkeling in the vibrant coral reefs teeming with marine life to kayaking in the calm lagoon, there was always something to do or explore. We also took the opportunity to learn about the local culture and traditions through cooking classes and cultural performances organized by the resort. As our stay came to an end, we couldn’t help but feel a sense of reluctance to leave this paradise on earth. Joali Maldives had surpassed our expectations in every way, from its luxurious accommodations and exquisite dining options to its commitment to sustainability and wellness offerings. It was a dream destination that left a lasting impression on us. As we bid farewell to Joali Maldives, we left with cherished memories and a deep appreciation for the resort’s dedication to providing a luxurious experience while prioritizing sustainability. It was an unforgettable journey that had touched our hearts and souls, and we were grateful for the opportunity to experience such unparalleled beauty and tranquility in the Maldives. It was a perfect blend of luxury and responsible tourism, creating a truly unforgettable experience for us.
