THE FIRST WELLBEING ISLAND OF ITS KIND IN THE MALDIVES

"There was magic and adventure, of course – but also truth, love and a sense of community. This was a story I wanted to be part of..."

Join us as we script an extraordinary tale together, one where integrity and passion illuminate each word, chapter and verse. Here, wellbeing is so much more than just an expression – it is a way of life, of being. We believe in savouring the joy of here and now. In setting our intention and nurturing with empathy. In co-creating moments of wonder and transcendence.

Combining ancient knowledge with modern science, our curated offerings are woven around the Four Pillars of JOALI BEING – Mind, Skin, Microbiome and Energy.

Nestled on the secluded island of Bodufushi in Raa Atoll, amid crystalline lagoons, pristine beaches and lush coconut palms, JOALI BEING is a 40-minute seaplane journey from Malé International Airport. With 68 villas, each with its own butler or “Jadugar”, we are the region’s first wellbeing island of its kind.
