Soneva Jani – Water Retreats
A curated collection of seasonal moments, shaped by the rhythm of the islands in summer, around the reef, around the table and in the quiet hours between. Each one pared back to what feels essential.
The season opens with a Summer Splash Pool Party on 21 July at Soneva Fushi and closes with a Summer Colour Festival on the last night. In between: Family Olympics on the beach, a Summer Sky Kite Festival, S’mores & Karaoke camp nights and a family day across the lagoon on Maalhos. The communal heartbeat of the summer, for every generation on the island.
Summer Suppers & Long Tables at Soneva Fushi – Set menu evenings at Once Upon a Table, a seafood night with Chef Soba, a two-chef showdown between Chef Rizal and Chef Chintaka, and cooking classes from Chef Manoj, Chef Ravi and Chef Liang. Alongside them, weekly beach BBQs, Korean, Indonesian and a Maldivian BBQ with Boduberu drumming under the stars.
Full Moon Kayaking Paddles across the lagoon of Soneva Jani, on the brightest nights of the summer, open water, a low horizon of stars and the hush that only the Maldives keeps after dark.
At Soneva Jani, a collective canvas will be created through July and August by the children and teens staying on the island. By the end of the season, the mural is finished and it stays. A quiet record of the summer you were here.
Mantas at the Lagoon’s Edge – A jet-ski safari from the watersports beach in search of the season’s mantas, with time to swim quietly alongside them in open waters of Soneva Secret.
The Secret Family Adventure – Smaller, gentler moments for the families in residence at Soneva Secret. A Five Senses Scavenger Hunt, a Families Fishing Competition off the jetty, a Family Treasure Hunt across the island and a Family Hot Pot Fiesta on the beach. The quieter side of a summer together.
