Your own piece of paradise at Soneva Jani, Maldives


The magnetic allure of the Maldives has drawn thousands through the years. If you want seclusion and luxury, it’s the Maldives. Feel your oneness with marine life, the Maldives. This sentiment has been constant for Thalassophiles, who do not compromise on ‘lesser’ ocean sanctuaries’. And speaking about the other end of the spectrum, one doused with natural indulgence and a unique eco-chic style, Soneva Jani is a name that stands out. Over the years, this ultra-luxury property has serenaded sustainability-focussed travellers and entrapped them in its unquestionable niche.


Organically built around the marine life of the Noonu Atoll, a mere 35 minutes by seaplane from Male’s main international airport, and accessible by a short speedboat journey from Maafaru international airport if travelling by private jet, Soneva Jani’s properties have inspired artists, celebrities and discerning holidaymakers alike. With their constant endeavour to create unique experiences, the resort chain has built stunning residences for sale. This sunset 3-Bedroom Water Villa – the only 3-bedroom water villa on offer – has a total area of 625 square meters with, of course, the bright blue ocean as your backyard.


Aptly titled the Sunset Villa Sanctuary – Villa Three, the two-storeyed unit, will make the majestic Soneva sunset an everyday ritual. The ground floor features a gracious living room with floor-to-ceiling windows that let in natural light. The sunken seating area gives you a playful insight into the marine life under you. You step out from here and are greeted with a massive outdoor deck with its own 12-meter pool.

Your own water slide

The break-out design of Soneva Jani is the water slide that leads from the deck to the turquoise lagoon below. The outdoor deck is an excellent place for you and your friends to settle down for an evening of making memories as the moon and the stars emerge.


The master bedroom lives up to its name and offers more than just a large bed. It also has its very own study area, a dressing room, and a generous master bathroom. The study is smaller than most of the other rooms to help you concentrate as you work, with only the ocean for company. Moving to the dressing room, you will find everything you need to ready yourself for the delights of the holiday.


There’s a separate children’s bedroom, which is any child’s fairy-tale. There are lockers and storage within easy reach of young ones. The ground floor also hosts two guest bedrooms and an outdoor bathroom where you can enjoy the views of the ocean as you shower whilst keeping your privacy in check.

Upstairs Bedroom

As you ascend to the upper floor, you will be greeted by the TV lounge, which is fantastic for family movie nights. The bedroom on this floor is covered with a retractable roof that can be opened if you want to sleep under the stars. It sprawls across a large area of the upper floor, giving you elevated views. The en-suite bathroom is pure luxury. It’s on this floor that Soneva has strategically created the gym, and it makes perfect sense. As you do laps on the treadmill, you can glance out at the infinite ocean from a superior vantage point and groove to your favourite workout music. As if all of this wasn’t enough, the upper floor also has an outdoor bathtub for a dip under the stars.
