JW Marriott Maldives Resort & Spa

My wife and I are fortunate to travel quite often for pleasure as well as myself traveling for business all over the United States. We have never experienced a more incredible property than the JW Marriott in the Maldives that we recently stayed at. The level of training that the staff has is impeccable along with the quality of the food, amenities, and just the personality and outgoingness of your staff really left us in awe. I am not one to write reviews and most of the time if it’s a great and a positive experience my wife and I will decide to visit there again but rarely do I write a review whether a property is good or bad but I can’t even begin to tell you how incredible the staff and property made this vacation for my wife and I. From the welcome ceremony when we arrived on the sea plane to the farewell sendoff we received leaving the property. I can’t say enough about it. We looked forward to speaking with the staff every day and learning about them and sharing a little bit about our family as well. We would like to recognize a few members of your staff that went out of their way to speak to us every day and make our vacation incredibly enjoyable. We would like to recognize Satyam in the Rum Bhann, Manish your Bar Manager, Natasha our incredible Butler, Danish your Executive pastry Chef, Sameera The Chef in your Steakhouse, Reena & Ita as well in your steakhouse, Mohamed, our housekeeper and James in you teppanyaki restaurant. These members of the staff went out of their way daily to speak to my wife and I and ensure daily that our vacation was perfect and we wanted for nothing. We will be back again in two years and we are already counting down the days. Thank you for exceeding our wildest expectations.

Our stay at JW Marriott Resort & Spa has been nothing short of amazing. My wife, our two daughters, and I had a truly wonderful family experience. The service throughout the resort was exceptional and exceeded all our expectations. The photoshoot session was a unique experience, as the photographer took us to the best locations, worked so patiently with us and the kids, and captured breathtaking shots. A very special thanks to our dedicated host, Malla, for his kindness and outstanding care. We will definitely treasure these memories and look forward to returning soon.

Dream Stay Beyond Perfection ✨ From the moment we arrived at JW Marriott Maldives Resort & Spa, we were welcomed with warmth, genuine smiles, and the kind of hospitality that instantly makes you feel at home in paradise. Every single detail of our stay was handled with such professionalism, elegance, and care that it exceeded even the highest expectations. The staff are truly the heart of this resort — so friendly, attentive, and always going above and beyond with such sincerity. Every interaction felt personal and special, as if the entire team genuinely wanted us to have the most perfect experience. Their professionalism is paired with a warmth that made us feel like honored guests every single day. The resort itself is breathtaking, but it’s the flawless service that sets JW Marriott apart. Everything was seamless, from check-in to dining to small details that made our stay feel effortless. It wasn’t just hospitality; it was an art form — an experience of luxury, care, and attention that is rarely found anywhere in the world. I’ve traveled widely, but this stay stands out as the best hospitality experience I have ever had. JW Marriott Maldives doesn’t just set the bar high — it defines it. I left with unforgettable memories and an immense gratitude for the team who made every moment so special. If you’re looking for perfection, look no further. This is the definition of paradise combined with world-class hospitality. Thank you JW Marriott Maldives Resort & Spa — I cannot wait to return! 🌺

Hello! In April we had a wonderful vacation at this hotel. We will remember the vacation for its beautiful nature of the Maldives and the excellent service of the hotel staff. They were all very friendly, smiling, caring. I would especially like to mention the head of the restaurants, Zahir, who was everywhere and offered the best with a smile. Sovia and Mizhgona, who served in the restaurants with all the warmth and care, sincerely interested in impressions and views on life. Chef Samira amazed us with her culinary skills, preparing very juicy steaks and fish. We have been to the best hotels and restaurants in the UAE and other countries, but it was Samira's steaks that conquered our stomachs, and his modesty and kindness - our hearts! Beagi and butler Anastasia promptly responded to our requests and tried to make the vacation better. And Imbaa... in my opinion, Imbaa is the heart of the hotel with its dazzling smile, kind heart, sparkling eyes, big warm hands and wonderful intentions. |It was very sad, sad to tears, to leave the hotel, which differed from the previous ones precisely in its cordiality and sincerity, friendly team, similar to one big family. |Thank you for the time spent in this family. We wish you prosperity and grateful tourists! Most likely, you need to choose the right season so that there are fewer insects, which somewhat darkened our vacation.

My wife and I went to the JW Marriott for our honeymoon with high expectations and those were met and beyond exceeded. We came for a beautiful, luxury island resort with ocean villas and stayed for the incredible staff that made our visit one of a kind. |The team was incredibly thoughtful, proactive, and kind from the moment we landed in Male airport. We were met by Marriott staff that handled our entire seaplane transfer to the island and received a warm greeting when we stepped off the seaplane that continued all the way through our departure home. The team was wonderfully coordinated, extremely responsive, and anticipated our needs before we even knew we needed them! |A very special shoutout to three individuals who made our stay above and beyond: Naawish, our guest manager / butler, who orchestrated our stay masterfully with all the staff on the island and made sure ever second of our stay was amazing. Lahiru, the sommelier and beverage lead, who turned every pool day and meal into a new memory with his knowledge, charisma, and passion for his guests and his craft. And Sameera, the head chef, who has created 5 unique and amazing restaurants on the island and who ensured every meal (even breakfast!) was special. There are so many more individuals we’d love to recognize if there was more room, so thank you to everyone at the JW for a once in a lifetime trip!

My stay at JW Marriott Maldives was truly memorable—highlighted by a generous upgrade, a magical birthday dinner by the beach, and exceptional service from my butler, Ziyad. Thai chefs Kwan and George made me feel at home with their authentic cuisine. However, one area for improvement is communication around maintenance. Unannounced noise disrupted the peaceful atmosphere, which is vital for guests seeking tranquility. I hope this can be addressed to uphold JW Marriott’s high standards.

We picked JW Marriott for our honeymoon for five nights in mid August. Upon arrival to Malé airport after a redeye, we were greeted with hospitality and brought to a business lounge for breakfast as we waited for our seaplane. It was about a 50 minute seaplane ride with one stop before JW. We were greeted on our arrival with one of the best refreshing drinks I’ve ever had as well as a welcome crew. It honestly felt like White Lotus! Malla was our guide and made sure we had everything we needed for the entirety of our trip. He was super friendly and had an amazing eye for spotting sharks in the water! The food especially at Aaliaa was superb! I loved the butter chicken and nasi goreng. I discovered dosa with chutney at the breakfast buffet and now forever changed. The bartender at Horizon was also one of our favorite islander staff for being so kind. I really loved the yellow sun coral (on the mocktail menu but could make it a cocktail!). Finally, our overwater villa was exactly what we wanted, perfect spot to see both sunrises and sunsets, and as romantic as it can get. Our room service always did these sweet detailed things for us like placing a towel and our slippers by each side of our bed, organizing my sink space for me, or a turtle shaped towel on our bed. We really felt spoiled by all of the staff at JW Marriott. We couldn’t say enough about how JW Maldives made our honeymoon that much more special!

My wife and I visited the JW Marriott resort for the first time but certainly not the last. The whole experience from arrival to departure was an absolute pleasure. Greeted by the team and then taken to our villa by our butler Hassan. Hassan was on call all week for anything required and he did the job admirably. ||The food was excellent and a special shout out to the sommelier and bar manager Lahiru. Attentive to our every need he went above and beyond anything one would expect. ||Incredible location and incredible hosts. A travellers dream. Thank you all.
