Eating at Soneva Jani

The dining concepts here are as equally captivating as the accommodation, with highlights being So Cool with its selection of ice cream, handmade chocolate and gourmet cheeses and charcuterie, dining on the beach where the menu only includes ingredients from the island garden or seafood from the lagoon, and the overwater Gathering Bar, a fabulous spot for sundowners. The ‘Cinema Paradiso’ is a classic Soneva experience which should not be missed!

Soneva Jani activities

But of course you can’t truly experience the Maldives until you’ve been on or under the clear blue waters of the Indian Ocean, and at Soneva Jani there’s something to suit every guest; from snorkelling with the resident Marine Biologist to diving with professional instructors from Soneva Fushi’s Soleni Dive Centre.

Or you could always take to the ocean on Soneva In Aqua to journey to the Group’s sister property for a twin-island escape.

As with all Soneva properties, expect children to have their imaginations sparked by the fantastic array of activities on offer for them, which includes learning how to protect the lagoon’s resident turtles.
