About the island

The island of Muravandhoo, where JOALI is located, is in the beautiful Raa Atoll in northern Maldives. It sits on one of the largest and deepest ring-shaped coral reefs in the world, home to many marine creatures. Crystal-clear waters, pure white fine sand, and swaying coconut shadows make it seem like a fairyland on the sea. After arriving at Male International Airport, guests rest in JOALI's exclusive VIP lounge and take a seaplane flight of about 40 minutes to the resort. At JOALI, we believe in joyful, immersive travel. From the inspiring power of art to the gifts of nature in life, we celebrate the brilliance of all life's forces. It is in these moments that the true meaning of luxury becomes clear.
