The resort can be reached by a scenic 40-minute seaplane flight direct from Malé International Airport, a 60-minute speedboat ride from Soneva Fushi, or by a leisurely half day cruise from Soneva Fushi onboard Soneva in Aqua.
Maafaru International Airport is now open in the Noonu Atoll, with facilities for private jets and commercial planes. From there, it’s just a 15-minute speedboat ride to the resort.
Read full detailsThe Maldives has always been the ultimate holiday and honeymoon destination. Set in the dazzling Indian Ocean, there are 1,192 coral islands of which fewer than 200 are inhabited. Medhufaru is a coral reef encircled island with a two mile lagoon, a perfect marine reserve. It is just 30 minutes by seaplane from Malé International airport where Soneva Jani offers the rare opportunity in the Maldives of property for sale.
Most of Soneva Jani’s guest facilities are located at the Gathering — an overwater, three-storey building that houses the majority of the Food and Beverage outlets, including So Fresh with a bar and musician platform, So Imaginative tasting room, So Engaging chef’s table, So Cool, and outdoor dining areas such as So Starstruck and Deckadence. All Soneva Jani chefs prepare mouth-watering, healthy and balanced dishes using only the freshest produce, much of which is grown in the resort’s own organic fruit and vegetable gardens, and served in memorable and exceptional settings. The Gathering is also home to the Shop, Yoga Pavilion, Spa, the Gym and the Den.
Additional facilities include the Crab Shack, Cinema Paradiso (an open air, over the water cinema) and the So Primitive (a fire pit dining experience on the beach).
Benefits of Villa Ownership
Soneva Villa Ownership is particularly appealing to those who return to the Maldives regularly for the following reasons:Â
Owner Savings
Soneva offers many special savings to villa owners including:
Villa Modifications
Villa owners who elect not to join the Rental Programme may alter their villas to the extent that the alterations do not affect the exterior of the villa itself or its appearance from the exterior. The developer’s written approval is necessary if you wish to modify the floor plan/layout of the villa, the exterior of the villa or the materials used in the villa’s construction.
Construction
Soneva uses top contractors and construction companies in the Maldives. For any new build villas, Soneva commits to a one-year construction period, with construction commencing in the following low season (from May 15 every year). Usually the villas are built well within this one-year period.
Payment
The payment schedule for a new-build is:
The payment schedule for an existing villa is:
Although no local mortgage facilities are available, Soneva can work with each buyer to agree on a bespoke payment plan if required.
Taxes
Owners are responsible for two taxes:
Land Lease and Villa Purchase Agreements
Villa ownership is structured on a sub-lease basis for the duration of the lease of the Island by Soneva and the Maldivian Government. Any future lease extensions will be passed onto the buyer at a formula equal to (1/total number of villas) x lease extension price for the island.
At Soneva Jani, the remaining lease stands at 44 years.
Soneva Jani has the option to extend the lease for an additional 49 years on payment of $5 million by Soneva. All owners are provided a ‘strata title’ deed which provides evidence of ownership.
Finance & Pricing
The purchase price of each villa is dependent on a number of factors including owner usage, size and location. Please contact us if you would like us to prepare a bespoke illustration.
