Joy Island Maldives by Cocoon Collection

We had an unforgettable stay at the resort! The excellent room service, especially thanks to Ahu, made our experience exceptional. The food was delicious, with the tiramisu being the best we've ever had and the chocolate night an excellent touch. The handmade ravioli was exquisite, and the prosecco sent to our room was the perfect finishing touch. All these wonderful details made our stay truly memorable. We can't wait to return!

Thanks to Hassaan, I had really comfortable and good time with my familly for 5days in Joy island.I really appreciate him. Thanks to Destiny in the restaurant,We had a lovely meal time.She was always smiling and kind so she made us happy.My son liked her and he took a picture with her. I highly recommand Joy island.

After a series of disastrous trips, our experience at JOY Island was a complete turnaround. Staff friendliness and professionalism on another level, Especially Aani from front desk & Sacha the island host. food choice and quality well above expectation, and every activity available you could reasonably wish for. Highly recommended. Cheers 🥂To the management of the island.

I like traveling alone. This was my first time to Joy Island (and fourth to the Maldives) and may I say how perfectly named the resort is?? From the moment I arrived until I left four days later, I had the best time!! The resort was so pretty, my room was great and the food was divine! (I love sweets and they went UP and OUT with the assortment of desserts!) . The only thing I wish I had had more of was: time there! Front Office Manager Ibbe was so kind to me. He made a special point of checking on me-- not because I needed it but because he was that sort of person who loves to extend interest and service. If there was anyone else who deserves a special "super shout out" it was Receptionist Aani---I am quite sure anyone else would have been exhausted by all of my questions, and yet there she was, always with that lovely smile and gentle disposition, ready to find the answers and be of the kindest help. I don't look for those qualities during my solo travels, but I sure am grateful when they find me. Resorts in the Maldives can be so over the top fabulous -- gorgeous water, wonderful dining, great excursions, etc-- but I have found it is categorically ALWAYS the staff who shapes (pro or con) my lasting impression. In the case of Joy Island, it is these two staff members who have become synonymous with Service, Professionalism, Kindness, and.... yes (in the case of Aani)... teacher!!! Aani is from the Maldives and in my opinion it is a distinction from other resorts that Joy Island has employed "locals/natives". So many other resorts have people from India, Sri Lanka, Bali, Philippines, etc--- and, while they too have been exceptionally trained, it was A JOY to meet "locals" and learn about some of the Maldivian culture and customs. Thank you, Joy Island and special, lasting thanks to Ibbe and Aani! I will tell everyone about you❤️❤️

We recently stayed at Joy Island Maldives, it was amazing. no complaints. We stayed in an overwater villa; we watched the sunrise from the room everyday. The highlight for me was definitely the house reef. We could just get into the water from the villa and snorkel. We saw a small nurse shark, eagle rays and reef fish so many colors and sizes. The reef was just so vibrant. It's shallow so it feels like snorkeling in a large aquarium. Also we spotted some dolphins on the way!! Having meals at the market is an experience. They have designed it to feel like walking through a market. Il Bascilico is a must-try if you like authentic Italian pizza. The resort is also very lively with live music at night and pool parties during the day. But it had the perfect balance where it still felt so calm and peaceful in most parts of the resort. The staff were very helpful and nice. Mr. Habeeb, who was our host was great. Also, it is Maldives afterall. It's hot so bring lots of sunscreen.
