Property Overview

Jawakara Islands Maldives is a five-star resort formed by Mabin and Dheru, two islands connected by a bridge in Lhaviyani Atoll. Mabin is the larger island, while Dheru has 88 villas and its own beachfront, poolside and family accommodation. Together, they create a spacious environment with extensive recreation, dining and wellness facilities. The concept works particularly well for families and groups who appreciate choice but still want the atmosphere of a private Maldivian island resort.

Rooms

Accommodation includes beach villas, beach pool villas, water pool villas and larger multi-bedroom options spread across both islands. Beach categories place guests close to the shoreline, while overwater villas extend above the lagoon and include private pools. Three-bedroom villas provide additional space for families or groups who prefer to remain together. The choice of settings allows travelers to prioritise beach access, private outdoor living or a direct connection to the ocean.

Food & Drink

Dining is divided across the two islands, with three international buffet restaurants providing live cooking throughout the day. Umi serves Asia-Pacific cuisine from its position on the connecting bridge, while Molo focuses on Mediterranean flavours overlooking the ocean. Hideout offers familiar dishes near the golf course in a more casual setting. Several bars add lagoon views, light meals, juices, coffee and evening drinks, giving guests plenty of variety during a longer stay.

Experiences & Activities

The resort’s recreation programme includes two infinity pools, an 18-hole golf course, tennis, football, volleyball and fitness facilities. The lagoon supports kayaking, sailing, jet-skiing and other watersports, while Prodivers provides introductory and certified scuba experiences. Snorkelling opens access to an extensive reef with coral and tropical marine life. Families also have dedicated kids’ and teen clubs, with activities ranging from crafts and cooking to junior golf, water games and excursions.

SPA & Wellness

Two Sulha spas provide separate wellness environments within Jawakara’s two-island layout, including garden and overwater settings. The treatment approach draws on Ayurvedic principles and combines massage with acupuncture and herbal therapies. Organic products support a natural focus, while yoga and fitness activities allow guests to add movement to their wellness routine. Having two spa locations also makes treatments convenient for travelers staying on either side of the resort.
