Soneva Jani, Maldives, Maldives, Indian Ocean

Soneva Jani

Soneva Jani is one of the Maldives’ most iconic resorts, set within a breathtaking lagoon of crystal clear waters and uninterrupted ocean views in the Noonu Atoll. Renowned for its overwater villas, playful sense of luxury and exceptional attention to detail, the resort offers a truly immersive escape where sustainability and barefoot indulgence go hand in hand.

Highlights

Sleep

Soneva Jani is home to some of the Maldives’ most recognisable villas, offering guests an exceptional sense of space and signature slides leading directly into the turquoise lagoon. Crafted from recycled whitewashed wood and designed with barefoot luxury in mind, even the one-bedroom villas feel remarkably spacious, each featuring a private pool and generous outdoor living areas.

At Turquoise we love the Overwater Villas, which combine uninterrupted lagoon views with direct access to the crystal-clear waters below and Soneva Jani’s famous slides, bringing a sense of fun to every stay. For those who prefer to be surrounded by nature, the island villas are nestled among palms or mangroves, offering expansive decking and a wonderfully secluded atmosphere.

Why Choose Turquoise?

Family Owned & Run

We are one of the few remaining family owned and run operators of our size. We have direct relationships with every single destination, island, resort and hotel we work with, in order to deliver exceptional and truly personalised service.

Our Passion Runs Deep

We are - and always have been - mad about travel. For almost 25 years we've been scouring the globe for the best places to stay, the newest routes to take, the perfect people to meet. No-one will care more about your holiday.

Definition of Luxury

Luxury means something different to everyone. Whether you are seeking the silence of vast spaces, the isolation of a private island, the buzz of a new city, the adrenaline of a safari or anything in between, we listen, we learn, we advise.

Fun & Refreshing

We endeavour that every Turquoise experience is unique, fun and refreshing. Travel is all about experiences, about serendipitous moments and endless smiles. It is a joy and an honour to plan each and every Turquoise holiday.
