JOALI BEING

The Maldives’ first dedicated wellness retreat, JOALI BEING redefines what it means to take time out, matching the ambition and expertise of the world’s leading wellbeing sanctuaries. Born from the vision of Turkish entrepreneur Esin Gural Argat, who fell in love with the Maldives and created sister property JOALI Maldives, dedicated to the joy of living, this island is her love letter to balance, restoration and joy. Here, holidays are infused with the Joy of Weightlessness, giving guests a sense of freedom, lightness and wonder. Each stay is guided by four core pillars: Mind (harmony, self-expression and resilience), Skin (confidence and rejuvenation), Microbiome (nurturing the gut for energy, immunity and radiance) and Energy (physical vitality through mindful movement). This is no intimidating boot camp. JOALI BEING welcomes you as you are, and sends you home with mind, body and soul renewed. It’s a Maldivian holiday unlike any other, where every detail works in harmony to make you feel whole again.

Highlights

JOALI BEING

SLEEP
 

The 68 ‘well-living spaces’ – never just villas or rooms – follow biophilic design principles, in tune with nature’s rhythm and free from any ‘negative vibrations’, each with a private pool and your very own villa host or Jadugar (magician in the Dhivehi). From one-bedroom retreats for couples to four-bedroom sanctuaries for groups, there’s room for every kind of traveller. Children are warmly welcomed which is a rare find in a wellness resort, with summer camps, school holiday programmes and B’Kidult, a whimsical playground for all ages, giving parents the gift of time to truly re-set.

EAT
 

Dining here is both nourishing and full of flavour, from Mediterranean plates to Middle Eastern feasts, poolside bites to romantic date-night dinners, proof that eating well can be joyful and energising. Menus span meat, pescatarian and plant-based cuisines, each with its own dedicated kitchen, so every preference is catered to with care. And whether your evening calls for a fresh-pressed juice, a crafted mocktail, or a celebratory glass of wine or champagne, the choice is always yours. You’ll leave feeling lighter, stronger, and glowing from within.

PAMPER & PLAY
 

Wellbeing here is a multi-sensory journey: glass-fronted saunas, steam rooms, ice fountains, hydro pools, salt rooms, a yoga sala, boxing, Pilates, personal training and the Maldives’ first cryotherapy chamber, a vast state-of-the-art gym, tennis and padel tennis courts, two Watsu pools and even a private sound healing room. The Herbology Bar offers botanical blends, while the Sound Path turns a simple sound bath into an immersive, restorative voyage. There’s also a deep commitment to the natural world, with three turtle conservation sanctuaries and a coral nursery restoration project.
