JOALI has appointed THRS (Travel and Hospitality Representation Services) as its exclusive PR and sales representative in the Indian subcontinent. This strategic alliance underscores JOALI’s commitment to India – one of the Maldives’ largest and fastest-growing luxury source markets – and reinforces THRS’s position as the partner of choice for leading global hospitality brands.
JOALI is a lifestyle brand inspired by the joy of living, where art, design, and wellbeing come together as essential elements of the travel experience. Over the past seven years, the brand has grown into two celebrated Maldivian properties — JOALI Maldives and JOALI BEING — each with distinct identities yet united by a commitment to creativity, inspiration, and exceptional guest experiences.
The Joy of Creative Living Set on the pristine Muravandhoo Island in Raa Atoll, JOALI Maldives is the country’s first art-immersive ultra-luxury resort. Celebrating the “joy of creative living,” the resort showcases specially commissioned artworks, inspiring design, and imaginative lifestyle experiences. Its 73 beach and overwater villas, including multi-bedroom residences, are each a design story in themselves, crafted around the concept of sustainable glamour. Guests are invited to savour world-class dining, unwind in private pool villas, and discover rich experiences rooted in creativity, culture, and artful living.
The resort is home to JOALI Art Studio & Gallery, the Muramas Kids Club offering enriching and educational experiences to uncover the magic of the land, a fitness centre, and an array of bespoke excursions. The spa experience is derived from the principles of JOALI BEING. Families, couples, art lovers, and design enthusiasts alike are invited to embark on a cultural adventure of a lifetime.
The Joy of Well-Living JOALI BEING is a truly unique destination in the Maldives — a well-living island where guests come to feel lighter, happier, and more energised. A place of joyful transformation brought to life through architecture, mindful cuisine, and immersive luxury. Rooted in the Four Pillars of Mind, Skin, Microbiome, and Energy, the island blends modern science with time-honoured traditions to inspire purposeful living, balance, and renewal.
Home to 68 beachfront and overwater villas shaped by biophilic principles, the island flows in harmony with the ocean and surrounding nature. Transformation unfolds in uplifting spaces such as the KAASHI Hydrotherapy Hall with Watsu, Aufguss sauna, salt inhalation, and a Turkish Hammam. CORE, the island’s fitness and movement zone, offers innovative facilities, dynamic training, and energy-filled programmes, while recreational sports, marine adventures, and sound-healing experiences create vibrant pathways of movement and discovery. Mindful cuisine nourishes and inspires, while B’Kidult welcomes families with meaningful activities that encourage connection and shared well-living. Every stay at JOALI BEING becomes a personal journey of energy, renewal, and joyful living.
Both properties are a 40-minute seaplane from Malé International Airport, with JOALI BEING just 15 minutes by speedboat from JOALI Maldives, perfect for seamless twin-island journeys for travellers seeking both creativity and transformative journeys. For private charters, guests can travel aboard JOALI’s own seaplane, where extra-spacious cabins, attentive service, and refined comfort turn every flight into a serene, bespoke experience.
The Maldives remains a top outbound destination for Indian luxury travellers, driven by convenient flight access, visa-on-arrival, and an increasing appetite for bespoke short-haul getaways. According to the Maldives Ministry of Tourism, India continues to rank as one of the leading source markets, underscoring the country’s growing role in shaping Maldivian tourism. Through this collaboration, THRS will spearhead JOALI’s visibility in India by delivering high-impact sales representation, integrated PR campaigns, and strategic storytelling designed to resonate with India’s most discerning luxury travellers.
