Jawakara Islands Maldives

I stayed in the Maldives for two weeks, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The experience exceeded all my expectations — the stunning beaches, crystal-clear water, and peaceful atmosphere made it truly unforgettable. But what made the trip even more special was the hostel. It is simply world-class. The atmosphere is welcoming, clean, and beautifully maintained, and everything is organized with great attention to detail. A special mention goes to Bijay, who made the stay exceptional. He is incredibly friendly, helpful, and always goes the extra mile to make guests feel comfortable and taken care of. His hospitality truly stands out. I can highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the Maldives. I would definitely come back!

The stay at this hotel was absolutely perfect and exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, we received an exceptionally warm welcome – the staff was consistently friendly, attentive, and professional without ever being intrusive. It truly felt as though our every wish was anticipated, and we always felt genuinely welcome. The accommodation itself left nothing to be desired. Our room was spacious, modern, and stylishly furnished, and it was impeccably clean. We were especially impressed by the attention to detail – from the high-quality amenities to the thoughtful little touches that made our stay even more enjoyable. The entire hotel complex was also beautifully maintained and radiated a relaxed, luxurious atmosphere. One of the absolute highlights was the food. Both the breakfast and the evening meals were of outstanding quality. The selection was diverse, fresh, and creatively presented, ensuring that there was something for every taste. The cuisine deserves special mention, as it combined regional and international dishes at the highest level. The restaurant service was equally excellent – efficient, attentive, and always delivered with a smile. The hotel’s additional facilities, such as the wellness area and leisure activities, were also superbly organized and contributed greatly to our relaxation. Everything felt thoughtfully designed and maintained to a very high standard. Overall, this vacation was an unforgettable experience. This hotel sets new benchmarks in terms of service, comfort, and culinary excellence. We would return at any time and can recommend it without reservation.

Our stay at Jawakara was truly wonderful. The resort is beautiful, well-organized, and offers exceptional service. We especially appreciated the privacy at Dehru and the quality of the food. It was an unforgettable experience, and we hope to return in the future.

We just returned from a magical week at Jawakara. I dont think we have had a stay anywhere that topped this. We stayed in Mabin water villa sunrise side. Snorkelling was good, we saw black-tip reef sharks, turtles, stingray, cowtail ray, eagle rays, trigger fish and many other fish. Although the reef is not off the beach at the resort snorkeling is fair unless you are a serious snorkeler. They do provide reef snorkelling trips daily to the house reef 5 minutes away by boat, free on AI. For us though the snorkelling around the water bungalows was better. Resort facilities are many. Golf course is fun. Hideout restaurant makes awesome tenderloin. All the staff we encountered were so happy and provided top notch service. Premium all inclusive has great offerings Cocktails are great and varied. Bicycles provided to get around the island are such a good idea. At first we were going to walk everywhere but ended up using bicycles to go pretty much everywhere in the end. Staff that were exceptional include Naffaz our coordinator, Mahendra at Hideout and Fore bar Bhumuka beautiful and bubbly waitress, Indika at Nika bar, Hanif at Bonthi bar and Saima restaurant. Roma the beverage manager, ensures there is a really great selection of beverages available. Adam at Saima restaurant a charming Maldivian guy. Sahudil at Nika bar a experienced hand. Milon who made up our room so nicely every day. Special shout out to Amanda our South African compatriot who found a home at Jawakara Many others too which we dont know by name were all so friendly and helpful. Buffet selection is good and varied. Umi restaurant has an awesome ambiance. Their service can be taken up a notch and food is good but not wow as it should be. View of sharks and fish while eating at Umi at night is special. I cant rant about Jawakara much more but rather end by saying, go and see for yourself you will be so happy for doing so. We would love to go back, Jawakara has found a special place in our hearts TIP : Download the Jawakara app in advance

We've been the second time at Jawakara and it was as fantastic as the first time 6 month ago. A great, clean, really outstanding resort. Such a kind staff with a special thanks to Sruthy, Mango, Lele, Anth and Subin just to mention a few of them. They all read our wishes from our lips and we miss them with their kind hospitality.

As a guest you really feel the spirit they have to make you happy and make you forget your daily business. If you are looking for awesome beaches, great food in all restaurants, a clean and modern environment combined with a very clean resort - This is the place to be. Period! We'll come come back in 2027, for sure. THANK YOU!
