Long regarded as the ultimate romantic destination, the Maldives is now capturing the hearts of travelers of all ages, from families with young children and teens to couples and solo explorers. Whether you're seeking unforgettable marine adventures, world-class dining, or a wellness-focused escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, the JW Marriott Maldives Resort & Spa offers something truly extraordinary for everyone to come together and build meaningful moments.  

For Families with Children and Teens 

The JW™ Little Griffins Kids Club, one of the largest in the Maldives, is a true haven for young guests. Inspired by a beachside pirate shipwreck, the outdoor area features a 13-meter-long pirate ship, a private children’s pool, and child-sized amenities including mini sun loungers. Providing non-stop fun, there’s also a roster of over 100 activities for all ages, including pizza making classes, island exploration, kite flying, sandcastle making and even the JW Beach Olympics. What’s more, children aged below 12 dine for free. Teenagers aged 12 and over can say goodbye to boredom as the resort offers a unique oasis to relax and play, with a private pool and lounge, plus full access to indoor activities such as PlayStation games and karaoke sessions.

For Water Fun and Adventures 

Nourish your soul and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Maldives with a wide array of ocean-based experiences offered at the Dive & Water Sports Center. From snorkeling among vibrant coral reefs and scuba diving to dolphin watching and deep-sea fishing, there’s an activity for every interest and age group. Adrenaline-seekers can enjoy action-filled activities such as jet skiing, parasailing, wakeboarding, water-skiing, and kite surfing, while those preferring a slower pace can opt for snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding, or a classic banana boat ride. Whether you're a seasoned diver or a first-time snorkeler, the resort’s expert team ensures a safe, smooth, and truly unforgettable experience in the Maldives’ crystal-clear waters. 

For a Rejuvenating and Relaxing Escape 

Connect body, mind and spirit and experience an overwater sanctuary at the SPA by JW, where modern design meets the calming rhythm of the sea. Immerse yourself in a transformative and bespoke wellness experience surrounded by uninterrupted ocean views and choose from deeply restorative massages and crystal facial therapies to invigorating body rituals to nurture both body and mind. Complete your spa experience with a serene swim in the outdoor pool, where sparkling waters and gentle ocean breezes create the perfect setting to relax and rejuvenate.

For Unforgettable Culinary Moments

Take a trip from Italy to Japan at one of five distinctive restaurants at JW Marriott Maldives Resort & Spa. Enjoy Italian favorites at Fiamma, Thai specialties with ocean views at treetop Kaashi, and refined teppanyaki at the overwater Hashi. Shio offers premium meats and seafood in a fine-dining setting, while Aailaa serves global cuisine all day with live cooking stations. Complete your experience with cocktails at Wabi Sabi, rare rums at Rum Baan, and curated wines from the resort’s extensive cellar. For something truly special, indulge in an eight-course Indian tasting menu at RIHA or opt for private Destination Dining under the stars or in your villa.

A Solo-journ in Style

For discerning solo travelers, JW Marriott Maldives Resort & Spa offers a rare blend of solitude and sophistication, making it the ultimate setting for those craving meaningful alone time, self-discovery and five-star freedom. With no pressure to follow group itineraries or compromise on personal preferences, guests travelling alone can curate their ideal stay from sunrise yoga sessions overlooking the Indian Ocean to solo snorkeling excursions guided by expert marine biologists. Spacious overwater villas provide a peaceful base for journaling, reading or simply soaking in uninterrupted views, while destination dining experiences allow solo guests to enjoy fine cuisine in total privacy. What’s more, the discreet Thakuru (butler) service ensures every detail is taken care of.
