With vibrant dining, engaging activities, and wellness experiences in harmony with nature, Jumeirah Olhahali Island offers an unforgettable stay in the Maldives.
Flavours of the Season
Culinary discovery takes center stage with an exclusive collaboration from 7 to 12 June, featuring renowned Indian chef Ritu Dalmia from Atrangi, Jumeirah Al Qasr in Dubai. Guests will be treated to a six-night tasting series for up to 35 guests each evening, highlighting India’s diverse regional cuisine with a refined and contemporary flair.
The island’s culinary calendar also includes the Eid International Market Night on 6 June and a unique Omakase Coffee Series from 6 to 10 June. Guests can enjoy a wider array of gastronomic offerings such as beachfront pizzas at Shimmers, Japanese-Peruvian fusion cuisine at Kayto, and curated destination dining experiences like floating breakfasts and secluded sandbank picnics.
Fun and Exploration for All Ages
The summer program is designed with families in mind, offering a rich blend of adventure and togetherness. Signature events like the vibrant Olhahali Kite Festival on 9 June, 15 July, and 6 August bring color to the skies, while the Kids’ Summer Olympics (6 June, 4 July, 21 July, and 11 August) invite friendly competition with activities such as water polo in the island’s pools.
New additions to the itinerary such as mini badminton tournaments (3 June, 18 June, 8 July, and 20 August) and weekly penalty shoot-outs every Tuesday in June, add an extra layer of excitement. For younger guests, lifeguard-led swimming lessons throughout August offer an enjoyable way to boost water confidence.
Teens and adults can dive into adventure with watersport camps led by expert instructors, featuring knee boarding, wakeboarding, and water skiing sessions. When the sun sets, families can gather for beachside movie nights under the stars, complete with snacks and shared laughter.

Guests can rejuvenate their minds and bodies at Talise Spa with a wellness programme that embraces nature. From 16 May to 30 June, visiting wellness expert Dr. Aradhana brings a unique blend of naturopathic treatments, including abdominal massage, sound healing, and detox therapies rooted in ancient healing traditions.
Complementing these treatments are energising Technogym Bootcamps held every Monday and Thursday, offering panoramic views during high-energy group sessions, along with daily yoga and mindfulness practices.
