Regarding my impressions of staying at JOALI, I thought it was a perfect resort. Everything about the villa, facilities, foods, and staff was of a high standard. The balance between the lagoon and the house reef was also good.

Accommodation costs are a bit high at around $3,000 to $5,300 per night, which is a bit of a drawback, but I think that’s unavoidable in the Maldives. Looking at the reviews, there are only high ratings.

There were a few bad reviews, but the only ones were about problems with reservations by people who weren’t staying at the hotel. The reviews regarding the villas, facilities, and meals are quite good, and it is a very good resort even if you look at other reviews.

I am very glad that I stayed at JOALI. Thank you for your viewing.
