Soneva Jani
For the second part of our stay we took a boat from Soneva Fushi to Soneva Jani by boat. It took 1.5 hours to reach our destination. Upon arrival we were greeted by fresh coconuts and cold hand towels. Soneva Jani is nestled within the tranquil waters of the Noonu Atoll, where sun-drenched blue skies and azure seas stretch out in every direction.
One of the worldβs lowest density resorts, there are just 51 over-water and three island residences, the largest and most luxurious villas in the Maldives, each designed for the ultimate privacy, space and breathtaking ocean views.
1 Bedroom Water Reserve with Slide
Kevin and I fell in love with our villa as soon as we arrived! I was in awe of the architecture and attention to detail. From the little notepads to jot down ideas, to the TWG teabags through to the option to pick your own pillow from the βpillow menu.β

Dinner: Overseas by Mathias Dahlgren
With a name inspired by its breath-taking overwater location in Soneva Janiβs lagoon, Overseas by Mathias Dahlgren is the brainchild of the acclaimed Swedish chef and restaurateur. After visiting Soneva Jani, Mathias fell in love with the location and wanted to celebrate the seafood found in the Indian Ocean and the produce grown in the resortβs organic gardens. Located by The Gathering, the overwater al fresco restaurant and kitchen has a laid-back atmosphere with uninterrupted views towards the horizon is open for dinner.
The fish and seafood featured on the menu are sustainably caught in local waters, while the organic vegetables, herbs and fruit are freshly picked from Soneva Janiβs own organic gardens. The menu is split mostly between seafood and vegetarian dishes, while there will be fully plant-based options. A pre-set menu of Chefβs Choices is the highlight, letting diners try a full range of dishes which includes single plates, sharing plates, signature dishes, an open selection for the main dish and dessert.
The dinner setting was so romantic. Upon arrival we were greeted by a dusty pink sunset and beautiful ocean. views.
