The JOALI team welcoming guests will be wearing face masks and gloves at all times. You can also have a peace of mind knowing that all guests and staff will then have their temperature checked by a thermal scanner before stepping into the JOALI Seaplane Lounge. You will then be provided with a sealed amenities kit which includes items such as hand sanitizers, face masks and facial tissues, along with necessary information on how to keep yourself safe when you arrive at the resort. As you board the JOALI seaplane from the lounge, rest assured that it has gone through enhanced cleaning and disinfecting after every flight.

CHECKING IN SAFELY AT YOUR RESORT

ENQUIRE ABOUT YOUR RESORT’S CLEANING AND HOUSEKEEPING PROCESSES

It is important to know what goes on behind the scenes as the environment you’re surrounded by contributes a lot to your safety during your stay, Going beyond the mandatory luggage disinfection upon arrival, the cleaning staff at Joali Maldives have access to, and are professionally trained on, the correct use of personal protection equipment. And in the interest of ensuring the health and safety of hotel staff and guests alike, all programmes where guests can voluntarily forego housekeeping services are suspended.

Chase the flavors you desire knowing that at Joali Maldives, all restaurants and bars have adopted stringent distancing and hygiene standards.

With all these in place, a memorable culinary experience is all that awaits your taste buds.

There is nothing quite like finally getting to experience all the activities you’ve been looking forward to on your adventure in Maldives. With that in mind, it is also important to ensure that your well-being has been factored into how activities are carried out. When you dive into the water activities at Joali Maldives, rest assured that all masks, fins, life vests and snorkels are cleaned separately in sanitized solution before being rinsed with fresh water. During excursions, equipment will be washed again in front of guests before use with guest bathrooms disinfected after each guest use.
