Set on remote islands tucked away in the Maldives and Thailand, Soneva’s luxury resorts are breath-taking in their natural beauty and unique in their exquisite design. Sustainable living and a barefoot philosophy are part of the natural order, and every day, sandy feet and inspired minds weave a new story. From the Maldivian charms of Soneva Fushi, the over-water paradise of Soneva Jani or the pristine Thai shores of Soneva Kiri, each luxurious resorts offer a peaceful haven in which to disconnect, indulge in the luxury of time and find inspiration from within.
Valid for a minimum three-night stay on selected dates between now and December 17, 2022, Soneva’s exclusive offer starts from USD 1,800 at Soneva Fushi, USD 2,900 at Soneva Jani and USD 1,500 at Soneva Kiri. Package rates are priced per night and are based on two guests in a one-bedroom villa, with a minimum booking of 20 rooms or more required.
Each package also includes daily meals at selected resort restaurants; roundtrip wheeled plane transfers from Malé Airport to Soneva Fushi and Soneva Jani, and shared return scheduled flight transfers between Bangkok and Soneva Kiri; and group experiences that are designed to harmoniously inspire, recharge, and invigorate teams, leaving them ready to take on the challenges of business. At Soneva Fushi and Soneva Jani, guests can take part in a mesmerising sunset dolphin cruise while watching dozens of playful dolphins in the light of the setting sun. For those who want to feel in tune with nature, an idyllic island castaway picnic is also on offer. At Soneva Kiri, guests will feel ready to take on the day’s challenges after a guided mangrove paddling excursion or reconnected with nature while exploring Koh Kood’s unspoiled rainforest during a trek to Yai Ki waterfall. In addition, groups can take a deep look into Soneva’s sustainable philosophy with a tour of each resort’s Eco Centro and organic gardens.
Soneva’s skilled culinary teams curate bespoke gastronomic experiences and menus that cater to every taste and group size, from cocktail receptions to extravagant feasts. At Soneva Fushi, 11 dining destinations and numerous culinary experiences include sumptuous spreads at the beach-side Mihiree Mitha and intimate fine-dining at Once Upon a Table. At Soneva Jani, the 11 venues include The Crab Shack, named one of the ‘world’s most romantic restaurants’ by CNN, the picturesque Overseas by Mathias Dahlgren or So Wild by Diana Von Cranach, which is located in the resort’s organic gardens. And at Soneva Kiri, a choice of eight culinary concepts includes The View, which commands spectacular vistas over the Gulf of Thailand, and Kruua Mae Tuk, a no-menu Thai dining hidden at the end of a mangrove-lined waterway.
Every Soneva resort has a wealth of breath-taking venues on land, at sea or even in the treetops. True to the Soneva mantra, ‘inspiring rare experiences’, each location offers an opportunity for groups to release the shackles of routine and delve deeper into their thoughts. Guests can find inspiration on a private sandbank in the middle of the Indian Ocean at Soneva Fushi. Project presentations or inspirational videos can be played on the large outdoor screen at Cinema Paradiso at Soneva Jani. Or conduct intimate meetings while hoisted high above the tropical foliage of Koh Kood’s ancient rainforest with Soneva Kiri’s Treepod Dining.
Across all of Soneva’s luxurious hideaways, expansive private villas offer exceptional flexibility for groups, whether guests wish to stay in individual properties, or together in a large private residence for an exclusive resort-within-a-resort feel. At Soneva Fushi, 64 one- to nine-bedroom island villas are hidden amongst dense rainforest, each just steps from the beach, while eight one- and two-bedroom Water Retreats are amongst the largest of their kind in the world.

At Soneva Kiri, 33 spacious pool villas range from one to five bedrooms, next to the beach, hidden in jungle on the hillsides, or commanding spectacular views from the clifftops.
Every Soneva event is utterly bespoke, tailored by Soneva’s experienced events team to ensure gatherings are perfectly personalised to each group.
