Summary

Jumeirah Maldives Olhahali Island is located in the North Malé Atoll, reached by either a 55-minute speedboat ride or 15-minute seaplane flight.

In contrast to many traditionally-styled resorts, Jumeirah Maldives Olhahali Island has replaced thatched villas with oversized penthouse residences built and decorated in a modern Mediterranean style.

The resort has an infinity pool overlooking the Indian Ocean, fringed with a sunken deck boasting oversized cushions for that indulgent comfort. The resort also includes another large pool at the beachclub, a billiard hut, as well as tennis and beach volleyball courts. For kids, there is a splash waterpark and indoor play area, as well as an outdoor cinema.

All non-motorised water sports are complimentary such as canoes, stand-up paddle boards, windsurfing equipment, pedal boats, snorkelling (mask and fins). Guest can also engage in various other activities at an additional cost including: waterskiing, jet-skiing, kite surfing, flyboarding, parasailing, PADI scuba diving courses and certifications, catamaran trips, customised excursions and private trips by speedboat, luxury yacht or dhoni.

The well-regarded Talise Spa, with its five overwater treatment rooms, offers access to wellness and relaxation with a range of therapeutic and re-energising treatments. The spa also contains a beauty salon, sauna and fitness centre.
