Muravandhoo: i migliori hotel a 5 stelle

6 time returnee to the Maldives, i personally think Joali has the best balance of what we look for as a family. It is luxurious, it is manicured, it has infrastructure, the service is extraordinary but it’s not in your face. Quiet luxury at its best. What Joali has that other resorts don’t is the immaculate and very accessible beach. The beach is extraordinary. It is large, the water is calm, transparent, 30 degreees. The sand is powder soft and without coral pieces! Check before booking about the coral because some resorts have a almost dangerous entrance into the sea. Other resorts have had to build rock walls in front of the OW villas, Joali hasn’t. The best villas are the sunset OW starting from 58 upwards. These face the sand bank which children can very easy swim to unaccompanied. The staff are divine, they don’t feel subservient but rather very happy to have you there and very happy to meet all your requests. Children are adored and kept very busy with a huge array of activities. But it doesn’t feel like a resort over run with kids. After visiting the likes of Soneva, i would say Joali kids program is better suited to smaller children maybe primary school ages and below. But this is an island where you can allow the children to roam free as there is a huge staff to guest ratio so they will always be watched. I especially loved how the staff would without being asked come and play and set up games with the kids. This was brilliant. Perhaps they could build a tree top area or a bigger kids adventure style set up. Not necessarily needed but just feedback. Food is good, the festive celebrations are triumphant. There is so much good quality food it’s almost overwhelming. Eat the local flavors, speak to the chef the local lobsters cooked Maldivian style are delicious! The villas are large spacious and most importantly they run horizontally across the lagoon. That way you are only meters from the ocean at all times. The one bed OW easily fits two children in the living room. Excellent on all counts, it’s my favourite “all rounder” resort. Compliments to management and the staff you are very kind hearted people.
