JW Marriott has launched its second resort in the Maldives with the opening of JW Marriott Kaafu Atoll Island Resort, featuring 80 private pool villas, including 47 overwater villas with breathtaking ocean views. Designed by renowned architect Cuneyt Bukulmez of Atolye4N, the villas combine modern elegance with local influences, offering floor-to-ceiling glass doors, open-air showers, and private pools.
A standout feature of the resort is a 30-meter-long underwater coastal structure, a research initiative aimed at combating beach erosion while creating a habitat for marine life.
Guests can indulge in seven dining venues and bars, an overwater Spa by JW, a fitness center, a lap pool, and a JW Kids’ Club, ensuring a luxurious experience for all ages.
